Russell

Lets continue to pray for Russell and his family. Russell has been in intensive care since his surgery a few months ago. It seems that he will be ending his battle and that the Lord will be taking him home real soon.

Let's Continue to Pray for Mattie and Her Family

Bonnie,

This touches home, over a month ago I took my pet dog Mattie who I have had for 12 years now, to the vet for an ear infection. While checking her ear the vet found a lump by her rectal. The vet suggested I take Mattie to a Specialist to get a second option but from what he felt, and x-rays there was nothing we could do for her and he really didn’t want to say anything till I took her to a Specialist. Well, I took her across the lake to Louisiana Veterinary Specialists Hospital and they ran test all day on my girl and sent off the biopsy to LSU for results. Three days later I got the results and yes, I was told she only had 3-6 months to live and there was nothing that could be done to remove the tumor or to treat it to make it go away.
All we could do is give Mattie something for inflammation so that she has no pain while going through this. This was probably the worst news Al and I have ever gotten as we think of Mattie as one of our children. Al and I brought Mattie last Tuesday for her 30 days check up to see if the tumor was growing faster or maybe had slowed down with the medication that we were giving her. Now keep in mind the medication CAN NOT MAKE THE TUMOR DISAPEAR NOR SHRINK THE TUMOR. The medication was just in hopes to buy us more time with Mattie by slowing down the tumor. Anyway, I had everyone and anyone praying for Mattie and at this point for Al and me and to give us strength to get through all of this. Well, the vet checked, and checked, without saying anything and I was getting so nervous that he was going to say it is now time to put her down as it has grown faster then we thought but instead he said “There must be some powerful prayers going on for this girl, because the tumor has shrunk to 1/3 the size of what it was 30 days ago”. Now, again we were not giving Mattie anything that could make the tumor shrink nor was there anything anyone could do. We had gotten 2nd. Options and even went as far as having the bio be sent to LSU for research….a little costly but I have pet insurance so it could have been worst.
It is nothing but a miracle that Mattie is better, the tumor has not gone away, and we go back in 30 days to see where we stand but for now it is 1/3 the size it was when they gave her 3-6 months and I am praying to have the six months so that she is here for this Christmas. Now I would not mind the illness go away and I have her here for a couple more years, but I do know that Mattie being 12 now doesn’t give her much more years…..and that I understand, I am just hoping to get through these last months with the holidays so that I can enjoy my time with her. I can so relate to the lost of a pet as we are so uncertain with Mattie right now and these pass months have been harder on Al and I then if we have lost a family member.

I just wanted to share the POWER OF PRAYER.



Take care

Prayer For A Special Friend

I am searching for the direction of where I should go as far as where I should live, my ex wants me to pay rent now and I just don't make enough to do that and live too. I know God will show me the way.

My neice Laura is still doing her own thing and her Mom still doesn't know where she is as she has not been kind enough to call and let her know.

I am trusting in the provision of God for that and all the rest of the "stuff".

Let us continue to pray for Sharon

Prayer for Frank Sampere and Roy Hollyfield

Please pray for the leader of my Tues night bible study group Frank Sampere. He was admitted to the hospital today with irregular heartbeat. He will have an angiogram tomorrow morning.He already has a pacemaker. He is in his early 70's .... is a wonderful godly man .... a church elder ...... and humble teacher .... and I've grown to love him dearly.

Stand in agreement for discernment for all doctors, nurses, etc. who come in contact with him, for no complications with the procedure, and for "no weapon formed against him shall prosper"! He still has much to do for God's glory!

Pray for Roy Hollyfield who works with me. He had a triple bypass surgery and is now having numbness in his face, arm, and shins. Also for his daughter who I believe is in her twenties or so and was recently diagnosed with Type I Diabetes.

Prayer For Solomon

Dearest God Almighty I am coming to you tonight with the request that although Solomon is a dog that you will heal the problems in his (joints) in his leg that causes him to limp due to the discomfort. It seems that he is suffering from some sort of disorder and that if you don’t heal him that he may have to be put to sleep as a result of it.

Lord, Father, Jennie and Jerry’s hearts are right, as we know that this is a test of their faith as trails are coming against them because they have made a commitment to follow you. We come to you as a family and we ask you Dear Lord to move this mountain. With faith even as little as a mustard seed we believe that we will see fruit and that you will honor our request. For we know that all things work together for Your good and for those who love you Lord. Your glory will shine from our hearts as a testimony so that others will see your everlasting love.

Your word says to ask believing that you will honor my family’s request. We ask this father praying that it will be your will that Solomon will continue to live a long healthy life free from pain as Jennie and Jerry’s pet.

Matthew 21:22 (New International Version)
"If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer."
