Prayer please

Hello all - it's not often that I request prayer for myself - but today, after several weeks of pain - I think I'm at my breaking point....

It seems as though I may have bursitis in my right shoulder (All symptoms point to that diagnosis, although I have not seen my physician.) It's extremely painful - and impeding my progress in accomplishing any tasks around the house. Even simply lifting my arm to stir dinner on the stove causes me much grief!

Thanks in advance for your prayers!
Again I say...I'm so blessed to be a part of this sisterhood...

In Memory of Arlene

Tomorrow is the third anniversary of our sweet sister Arlene's death. Every time I hear this song, it reminds me of Arlene's heart for reaching others for Jesus.  I think of her so often and miss her beautiful spirit and kind heart and the amazing love she graced my life with....May this be the desire of each of us....every day....to reach one more for Jesus...

Prayers for Ben

Asking for prayers this evening for Ben, father of Dean Smith (our sister Sara's Father-in Law)

Prayers For Fannie

Would you please join me in prayer for Fannie. She is the mother of two friends on mine, Lenny and Betty. She went into the hospital for gall bladder surgery and doctors found a mass....it appears to be pancreatic cancer, found spots on her lungs also. Please keep Fannie in your prayers and also Len and Betty that God will comfort them through this time with their mother. Thank you

Asking for outpouring of prayers for Sarah, daughter of a friend of mine who is in the midst of a long hard battle.....Lord Jesus calm her heart, draw her close to you, touch and comfort her Lord with your healing love, grace and mercy....wrap your arms around her ...be with her family as they come to you prayerfully in faith and trust.....I ask in your precious name....Amen

Update on Baby Noah

His surgery was successful, and he came home tonight!
Please continue to keep him in prayer as the first two weeks after surgery is when he would be most vulnerable to infections and shunt malfunctions.
Thank you so much for your prayers!

Baby Noah

Once again I would ask all of you to pray for baby Noah.  He is having surgery today to receive his third shunt.
He is six months old and has had 16 brain surgeries.
His mother says that he is currently in a lot of pain from the fluid build up in his brain. 
Please pray for God's will in healing this precious baby, and to continue to provide strength to Noah's Mom and Dad and his two little brothers at home. 
I know his family appreciates all the prayers that have gone up and have great faith!

Praise Report!

Thank you all for praying for me! I meant to post this yesterday and then got busy and forgot....all the twitching and thumping in my face and ear was completely gone when I awoke yesterday morning!! God is good - MS symptoms NEVER go away that quickly --it's only by the grace of God, thanks to the prayers of you all! Once again, I'll say how blessed I am to be part of this online sisterhood/friendship!!

PRAY FOR HELGA

Please pray for my Mom Helga. She was admitted to the hospital today. They are running some tests and doing another colonoscopy on her tomorrow. As you know, she is fighting colon cancer and the latest chemo stopped working on her a couple of weeks ago. The Oncologist told us that there is only 1 drug left to try and she was supposed to begin it today. Please lift her up before the throne of mercy and grace...
Please pray for me as well....

Help. I can't take the twitching anymore!!

Good morning....hoping to solicit some prayer....The entire right side of my face has been twitching for the past several days...along with that twitching is a thump, thump, thump in my right ear - sorta like someone beating a distant drum! It's not constant - but it does occur often enough to drive me crazy. This morning, I actually timed it with a stop watch....like clockwork, every one minute and 24 seconds...the pulling/twitching/thumping/insanity-driving event occurs and lasts for 15-20 seconds before the whole cycle starts again. The only relief I get is when I'm sleeping (I'm sure it's still happening in my sleep as it's there the second I wake up.) I'm finding it very difficult to enjoy anything with this incessant thing happening. It's for sure a symptom of MS - which leads me to believe (from past experience) that this could go on for weeks before it resolves. I do not want to wait weeks! Thank you in advance for your prayers. I know it may seem trivial compared to others' problems...but I'm about to lose my mind over this!

Praying for Hope

Please join me in praying for a little girl named Hope.  She has recently been diagnosed with Alport Syndrome .. a genetic disorder she inherited causing kidney disease.  Hope is only three years old and is so young and precious to have been dealt this in her young life.  Her grandma (my neighbor and long time friend) is asking for prayer.  Your prayers are coveted.  xxx Cathy/Mrs.Mac

Prayers for Deb and Pat

Lord Jesus, thank you for two precious sisters Deb and Pat. Console and heal them Lord, Deb who has not been able to walk the past few days, suffering from MS. And Pat suffering with pain in her leg. Be merciful to them in their time of healing; give them peace of mind which only you can give; restore them to perfect health in your precious name I pray...Amen

Walking....

Walking....walking....um....no.

Hello Sisters! I'm having some major MS junk going on and could use your prayers.
I haven't been feeling well - in fact am unable to walk very well at all. Can't drive...ugh. So I am housebound... And while I AM enjoying the fact that Brillo Man is doing the dishes :) ....I don't enjoy the fact that I'm stuck on the sofa all day! My days have been going from the bed to the couch with trips to the bathroom in between --takes me FOREVER to get from point A to point B. And there is considerable pain involved. On a brighter note - I AM getting pretty good at the daily crossword puzzle! Prayers please! Thanks all!

A Prayer Request From Deb

Urgent Prayer Request

Baby Noah

Please pray for precious Baby Noah.  He was born 8 weeks early and has many medical problems.  He is currently back in the hospital because he shunt is once again infected and needs surgery to externalize it which means he will once again be on antibiotics for weeks.

He has suffered seizures that have lasted hours.  The little lamb  is currently in pain even after being given codeine, morphine and Tylenol!   He's a fighter and I believe the Lord will bring him through and his name will be glorified!  His momma and daddy are pastors and also have two other young sons at home. Please remember them in prayer as well.

God Bless you for your prayers!

Pat

Prayers Continue

God is our refuge and strength,
a very present help in trouble.
Psalm 46:1

Praise His Name

Praise ye the Lord, Praise God is his sanctuary;
praise him in the firmament

of his power.

Praise him for his mighty acts:
praise him according to his excellent greatness.

Praise with the sound of the trumpet:
praise him with the psaltery and harp.

Praise him with the timbrel and dance:
praise him with stinged instruments and organs.

Praise him upon the loud cymbals:
praise him upon the high sounding cymbals.

Let everything that hath breath praise the Lord. Praise ye the Lord.

Psalm 150

Please Pray..

Please remember my daughter Sara, and her husband Dean. They are caring for Deans parents and have just learned that Deans father, Ben must now go into a nursing home. His mother has special physical needs also, and it is yet to be determined how and where she will be able to live. Many issues can burden the soul, but God can carry those if we go to Him in prayer.
I know they would appreciate your remembering them when you pray.

Anita, Richard, Claire, David

"Then they cry unto the Lord in their trouble,
And He saveth them out of their distresses.
He sendeth His word, and healeth them,
And delivereth them from their destructions."

Psalm 107, 19,20

Merciful God, we remember before you all who are sick this day. Give them courage and help them to face and overcome their fears. Be with them when they are alone or rejected. Comfort them when they are discouraged. And touch them with your healing Spirit. Amen

 

Anita- Ovarian Cancer

After a number of tests done earlier this year, Anita was diagnosed with ovarian cancer. She has undergone several chemo treatments and is now  having difficulty keeping any food down; she is barely eating at all.  She is scheduled to see the doctor on Tuesday, June 15th.  Please pray the doctors will be able to provide answers.

 

 

6/16/2010 UPDATE ON ANITA FROM SUSAN:  

 

When mom leaves the hospital she will go home on hospice who will keep her comfortable and pain free until it is time...mom requested to be taken back to the hospital when it is time....they said they did not think it would be to long until it is time...of course they don't know only God knows for sure....she  asked to see all the grandkids today...

 

 

 

Richard- Prostrate Cancer

Richard  has had 22 radiation treatments, 13 to go (35 total), works 7-3, then commutes across town for treatments every day at 4 pm. After 5 more treatments, the radiation oncologist says they'll focus the beams more narrowly on the prostate bed itself. Concerns: that there would... be no damage to bladder/rectum. The increased radiation has caused a few minor side affects so far.  

Note from his wife Vicki:  I actually think that when the Lord opened our eyes to nutrition, we received a special grace. Due to the juicing and eating raw veggies, he's probably less tired than he'd be if he ate otherwise. ...keep praying his other vital organs will be protected. The Lord knows the outcome...and He is our Healer.

 

 Claire (Pilot Mom to many of us)

 I have a prayer request. Last week I awoke with a headache and double vision in one eye, my right eye. I managed to deal with it for a couple of days thinking it was connected to ear and sinuses.
After talking with my sister (who is so much wiser than I) on Saturday Jim and I decided I needed to go visit the ER at our hospital. Wow!! What service! There was absolutely no waiting! I didn't even get to finish giving my history and stuff before I was in a room! After ruling out "stroke", muscle problems etc. it was determined it is something directly related to the eye.

I am leaving shortly to go see my opthamologist who will be able to give me a diagnosis. After researching (never, ever do this) on line regarding double vision in one eye I became a little nervous to say the least.
Anyway, all that just to say I need prayer, that my nerves will be calm, the doctor has wisdom, and anything else God lays on your heart. Thanks ever so much!

Prayer update: Back to square one. Stroke or vascular problems have not been ruled out, at least not until an MRI and a MRA is done on Thursday night. Then Friday morning will return to eye doctor, and Friday afternoon I'll see my regular doctor. So nothing new to report.

 

 

LATEST UPDATE: Monday June 14th 

The latest update for those who have been praying: I have "nerve palsy" in my right eye which is giving me the double vision. Eventually, it will go away. In the meantime, they are making a prism that will be placed the left lens of my glasses. This will help off set the double vision somewhat. This is common in diabetics and/or people who have had strokes. So a few more months before it is cleared up.

 

 David- Depression

David has been battling depression and asks for prayers...

The depression and the accompanying struggles and behaviours have been debilitating and I need your prayers as I journey back to where I want to be.

Thank you so much for your steadfast and ongoing prayers over the past 18 months. It's been a real battle but we all know that the battle isn't ours but His.

Prayers for Deb

From Cathy (Mrs. Mac)

Asking for prayer for my sister-in-law, Deb. She's had breast cancer, surgeries, and was ready to start chemo/radiation when a small tumor was detected on her lung. Having surgery soon. Please pray that God is her anchor and for His peace & healing. This has been very hard on my brother as well.

Prayer For All Who Are Abused

You chose, O loving God,
to enter this world
quietly, humbly, and as an outcast.
Hear our prayers
on behalf of all who are abused:

For children,
who suffer at the hands
of parents whom they trust and love;
for spouses,
beaten and destroyed
by the very one
who promised to love
and to cherish them forever;
for all people
ignored, hated and cheated.
by the very neighbor
who could be the closest one
to offer your love.

Hear the cry of the oppressed.
Let the fire of your Spirit fill their hearts
with the power of vision, and hope.
Grant to them empowerment to act,
that they may not be passive victims
of violence and hatred.
Fulfill for them the promises you have made,
that their lives may be transformed
and their oppression ended.

Turn the hearts of the oppressor unto you
that their living may be changed
by your forgiving love;
and their abusive actions
and oppressive ways brought to an end.

Amen.

- Vienna Cobb Anderson

For Our Soldiers

Praying Always

Is any among you afflicted?
let him pray
Is any merry?
let him sing psalms

Is any sick among you?
let him call for the elders of
the church and let them pray over
him, anointing him with oil in
the name of the Lord.

And the prayer of faith shall save
the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up;
and if he have committed sins,
they shall be forgiven

Confess your faults one to another,
and pray for one another,
that ye may be healed.

The effectual fervent prayer
of a righteous man
availeth much.

James 5:13-16

Remembering Arlene

Miss you sweet sister.....

But he was wounded for our transgressions,

he was bruised for our iniquities:

the chastisement of our peace was upon him;

and with his stripes we are healed.
