my fam-




It is so good to have a family that sticks together during hard times. We've had a few trials these past few months, and as we pull together and support eachother, I realize more every day how blessed I am to have them.
My oldest brother Kevin wrote a beautiful song that has been going through my mind for a while. The title is "On Bended Knee" and the words are perfect:
In prayer and deep sincerity, I come again on bended knee. This sweet communion makes me whole, Brings solace to my troubled soul. I daily learn humility In fervent prayer, on bended knee.

In former times, a faithful youth Appealed to God for light and truth. Where darkness and despair had been Came plain and precious truth again. Thus Joseph’s prayer amidst the trees Was answered while on bended knee.

And Jesus in Gethsemane Proved His eternal love for me. Atoning drops of blood were shed To save my soul from sin and death. “Thy will be done,” obediently The Savior prayed on bended knee.

He gently heals my aching heart. My loneliness and fear depart. The peace the Holy Spirit gives Is testimony that He lives. I feel my Father’s love for me When I’m in prayer on bended knee.
