My Brother is Sick

Just recently received a text message from my brother Elmer regarding his health condition. He said he was diagnosed with Tuberculosis. I was really shocked, well not really. I already anticipated it long before because he is a hard core smoker...but I never thought it would be this sudden. Though we really never had the chance to bond because he is really not the type of Kuya who cares for his younger sisters... I still feel bad for him. I pity my nephew Empoy, he's been living with his father for four years now. What if he is also infected by such disease? God forbid.

Lord, please help my kuya Elmer. I know He needs you...I know You are the only one who could help him this time. He didn't feel loved within his family so I really pray that You would fill his life with unconditional love. Lord, I don't know if I've been a good sister to him but I am willing to be one this time. I hope he could feel that he is not alone in this crisis and that he could still count on me and the entire family. I love my Kuya Lord, please take out his sickness and forgive him for all his trespasses. Amen.
