Dear God,
I feel rather rough today. My chest hurts and my lungs are on fire. I've been coughing so hard and I am so very tired. I just want to lay down and rest. The problem there is I could sleep for days, wake up, and then turn around and go right back to sleep.
Dear God, please place Your healing hand upon my body and draw this sickness from me. Ease my pain and restore my strength. There is a lot ahead these next few weeks and I need all the strength I can get to get through it all. The last thing I need right now is to be sick. My family needs me. My work needs me. I need me!
