wings and many prayers

sketchbook page

A colleague of mine had open heart surgery today. He's been waiting nervously in the hospital for over a week now and I know his family is exhausted. I pray they find the energy and the sustenance to pull through. My life is blessed by proximity to unsung heroes. This man certainly is a special hero one to many of the kids and faculty on campus.

Making something, like a drawing in my sketchbook, helps me focus my energies, and calm my nerves. While drawing and painting this image I prayed for my friend, for angels help and God's love.
