I hope I'm sending this to the
right address - First, I'd like to share a miracle-in-the-works. A few years
ago, my uncle was diagnosed with Supranuclear Palsy. (Dudley Moore has this
incurable disease, as well.) He was getting worse with each day, and was even
put into a nursing home by his wife who was too weak to care for him herself. My
mother recently subscribed to this list, and sent a prayer request out for her
brother-in-law (my uncle) and, after many kind words and prayers, The Lord has
touched him! My uncle was brought back to his home about a week ago, and he is
actually getting BETTER! He can speak now, rather than just mumbling and choking
on every other word! God is proving Himself to the disbelievers by curing what
the 'doctors' say can not be cured! Praise The Lord! Thank you all for your time
and prayers!
I would also like to ask my fellow prayer warriors to
remember Ken - my mother's wonderful boyfriend - in their prayers today. He's a
young, healthy man who's in the military. This morning while he was doing his
laps for PT, he blacked out. The next thing he remembers after that is standing
in line for formation, but he doesn't know how he got there. The doctors say he
had a concussion, and that's that. They don't seem very interested in further
testing, so I ask you all to join us in prayer that The Lord will see to it that
this passes, with on repercussions or recurring episodes.
One last request; PLEASE remember to pray for the
homeless. I received a letter in today's mail from our local mission, asking for
donations. I cried when I read it, simply because I'm so financially drained
right now, and can only afford to send a few dollars. Sometimes I feel that part
of my mission from God is to be an advocate for the homeless and hungry, but I'm
still waiting for him to direct me down the right path. Without knowing which
way to go, all I can do is continue to pray for them constantly, that they may
find warmth, food, and the love of Jesus Christ as they lay down to sleep each
night. Thank you all for your prayers, and may He continue to bless you richly!
