say the Lord's Prayer. No--I don't mean I forgot TO pray; I remembered that. I FORGOT SOME OF THE WORDS. It took my breath away.
Granted--it was nearly 2 AM after a full day of bus and plane rides to get to Corning. As I tried to fall asleep, I began to pray the Lord's Prayer very slowly and thoughtfully. The weird thing was that the farther along I got, I couldn't for the life of my remember the last part. And it wasn't even like I was drifting off to sleep---I lay there for nearly 45 minutes trying to fall asleep. That's unheard of for me.
It's sure a very good thing that so many family members and dear friends are praying for us during this wait-and-see time. But I know God is a forgiving God, and certainly doesn't keep score of whether or not I'm being forgetful.
