Prayer From a Witness




Just before impact--
She screamed for Your help, Jesus.
Then she and her unborn son crashed into
An unholy entanglement of human flesh and metal.

Her survivors are left with tears
And a sorrow that taunts their faith.
I won’t ask why it happened
Although  my heart aches, and aches, and aches.

Lord …what I do want to know is
--Even though it is none of my business--
How did You answer her plea?
Did You appear in the chaotic terror
Of her death and say, “Come!” ?
What did you say to her?
