OH LORD BE NEAR.........

A quote by Shelia Walsh...from Women of Faith Study Bible (NIV)
"Questioning God sounds blasphemous to some people. They might say, "How dare you? Who do you think you are, that you can come before God and question him?" But I don't think being honest with God is blasphemous at all. I believe God wants us to be honest because he wants a real relationship with us, not something plastic or halfhearted.....I believe God much prefers to have his children come before him and say, "God, this makes no sense to me. I hurt so badly. I just don't understand. I don't think I'll ever understand, but, God I love and trust you, and I rest in the fact that you know how I feel.....I can't understand what is happening to me, but help me to glorify You through it all". ~Shelia Walsh~

Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Jesus Christ. Philippians 4:6-7
Dear Lord please be with us as we start on this difficult journey with my Dad, I pray that you give him the strength he needs to pull through and give me the strength I need to help him through, physically as well as emotionally. Dear Lord be near. I am claiming in your name that his bone scan will be negative and we will proceed with the surgery and he will be healed. Thank you Lord for the blessings you have given to me...please continue to bless my family...

I ask for strength and healing for a little baby boy, Stellan. He has been through so much in such a short time. I pray that you give his Mommy and Daddy the peace that only you can give. I also pray for Stellan's Doctors, be with them and give them the knowledge to know what to do.

In Your Mighty and Awesome Name I pray.....AMEN
