Prayer and Praise

This year for me has not started off very well, however the Lord is providing me with many blessings.


I need prayers for the following people:


My great grandma Juanita, she had hip surgery and it went well; however, she is 89 years old and is not stable on her feet. Please pray that the Lord will continue to heal her and that my family will not have to place her in a nursing home.

My other great grandma has Alzheimer and she has forgotten everything, from going to the bath room to eating. My family has not put her in a nursing home, though it is hard on us all. She is sleeping most of the days and is worrying my Grandma.

My great grandpa, Max. He is in a nursing home and has fallen several times. They now have is bed on the floor and he is still able to distinguish most things. However, he is being to slur his speech a lot and can hardly hear.

My grandpa, John. He has had heart attacks and minor strokes in the past. And lately he has been having small pains again. He is also trying to stop smoking and is wearing the nicotine patch. We are very worried about his health.

My niece that the Lord will heal her of her choking when she lays down, it is very scary for us all. Pray that her doctors appointment will go fine and that it will be something she will grow out of. And praise that in all other areas she is very healthy!!

And prayer for some personal family issues.

Thank you all for your time, thoughts, and prayers.

God bless!

-Cs

Dont think, or worry, about the bad things that happen in life. The fact is that bad things can happen to good people as well as bad. The rain falls on us all and we cant escape that. Just as surely as the rain will fall, the sun will rise.

have faith, stay strong

Glad to hear both are doing fine.

Is your great grandma Juanita in the nursing home temporarily?

That I'm not sure about. With conversations at Christmas, I think she might spend most of her time in there. The only one that can take care of her is my great aunt. And her husband has a bad back. However, they don't want the nursing home to get all of the money. Something legal there I don't quite remember the whole deal on that. So I'm not sure which will out weigh the other.

If your great grandma does spend a majority of time there, make sure she gets a lot of visits.

That's very important for her well being.

I'm doing the same thing with one of my uncles.

Lord....

Love is apparently not understood well here. I have tried vey hard to follow your teachings but many don't and I expect that it is their own choice. Who wrote the bible anyway? I never understood how that happened, but the rocks sent down from the mountain seemed to be indesputable.

A lot of people have problems. Most of them don't want to take up their own part in that - and I can understand that. It is very hard to admit being wrong, or to realise that anger comes because fear of something rides directly behind it.

I can't really help most of these people - for one thing I just can't seem to reach them.

They are not ready yet to look at what they do, and their own part in it.

I can only try as hard as I can to do what I am supposed to - and I hope that's alright.

I'll do that, listen to blues music, do the things I'm good at (like build race engines) and hope I am doing what I should be.

I really don't like the bad people, but I suppose they are in your hands also.

Please don't let them hurt anyone I love.

And Lord? I do love you.....
(AMEN)

That's my problem with that issue. Her husband died last Febuary, and he was in a nursing home. And he hardly got visits. And Max, my other great grandpa is in a nursing home. And he hardly gets visits. It's hard living 6 hrs away and only geting a short amount of time to divide amoung family members. In the last year I was greatly surprised at her children's reactions. So I'm not too sure that they will visit her like they should.

And I'm praying that the Lord will move me back home soon, before I miss out like I have already. She was the one that greatly influenced my father. The Lord used her as a tool, expesially the day my father acepted Jesus into his heart.

What's the problem?

Love....

Nobody has ever completely explained it, but it makes so much difference in everyday lives.....

So does hate.


The difference is plainly obvious....

PICK ONE!

Yes, I agree. Sadly there wasn't enough love last Christmas. Just the "have to's". Those are what makes me seek the love more and more.
