Thank you Blondie foryour postings today.
Father, I just bring all my self-doubts and self-loathing to You. I know Lord that this is not the way You would have me to think. I claim Your promises and know that You are faithful. Please bind the evil one who would destroy all of our happiness for the good things that You provide each of us daily. Please be with Sheila and her Mom. Lord, many of us know what it feels like to lose our moms, help us to be a source of strength and encouragement to her. In Your timing we know that You will heal her. Either here on earth or in heaven. Lord God, we know the same applies to Tim. Please just strengthen him in his fight for his life against the meningitis and the allergy to the primary antibiotic treatment. Please be with Cheryl's daughter and help her to choose the Best way - Your way, that she might have a full and happy life not only for herself but her daughter also. Thank You for Your goodness and mercy. In Your Son's name I pray, Amen
Blondie-thanks for posting the pictures/inspirational writings. I don't know where you find all these but they are great!
Amen to Kathy's prayer.
Lord - thank You for giving us a platform to bring all our cares to You. We know that nothing is too small in Your sight when Your children are impacted - Your eye is on even the sparrow.
Lift up ProudNavyMom, her family, and especially her son as he deals with his separation from what he hoped would be his goals. Bring him comfort as You point him on his new path in life and show him the open window that You have waiting for him.
Touch NCMom - give her rest and healing so that she can enjoy her trip to RI for such an important event.
Hold close Tim and his family. We continue to prayer for this wounded warrior, not knowing what is happening, but having faith in Your plan.
Comfort my dear friend Cheryl - give her peace and the knowlege that you are working in her life and that You will take care of her, Andrea, and sweet Marissa. Give Andrea the courage and self confidence to stand up for herself and her daughter.
All of these and more we bring to You. You know the prayers, hopes and dreams of our hearts. Help us to trust in Your word when you tell us in Jeremiah "...For I know the plans I have for you, Plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future..."
Thank You for our snow this morning - we are so grateful for it! Thank You for loving us - we love You.
I would like to ask for prayer for my daughter, Andrea. She has decided to take her boyfriend back and he has only been with her "this time" for a couple days & is already acting like he is going to leave again. She needs the guidance and strength to finally put her foot down and tell him ENOUGH! Thank you. I know it isn't the earthshattering type of request that we usually have here on the prayer wall, but I am getting very frustrated by this and how it is affecting my daughter and granddaughter. Yes, this is the guy I was worried was going to hurt her in the past. She is so tenderhearted and wants to be caring and loves with her whole heart. I also am still in need of more work or a different job, since I lost one of my biggest cleaning jobs. I am resting on God's word and promise.
I agree with Blondie, Proudnavymom. Please don't leave our group. You will always be a Navy mom even if your child isn't in the service.
Praying for you NCmom. No prayer is too little to pray about.
Sheila, I am praying for you and your Mom.
Does anyone know any new news on Tim?
Dear Father, You are our great physician. Please be with Sheila's mom. We just ask that she will feel Your healing power this day. And we continue to hold up Tim and his family to you. Jesus this young man has suffered such severe assaults on his body by those who were trying to kill him or other Americans. Please dear Jesus heal him now of the meningitis that would now take his life. Help his docs to find the right antibiotic and let it not cause an allergic reaction. We ask this in Your precious name, Jesus. Amen
Sheila--I have spent many days and weeks with a Mom in ICU. May you feel the presence of God as he wraps his arms around your Mom and you and the family.
