We ask your prayers for one of our partners.
In her own words:
"May God uphold all that He has called me to do and that I would not faint nor stumble, but He would accomplish the work He has called me to do and it would be His pure gold, as much as possible and that 2008 would be a wonder on His behalf".
Thank y'all.
Friends,
I don't ask for many prayers - still working on letting others into my prayer life - but please pray for my baby sister, Andy. She rolled 3 times in the dump truck she was driving yesterday. Thankfully there were no critical injuries for which I praise God. Her left ankle was crushed, shoulder was broken and she is in a lot of pain. I have fear that there may be more, but it might just be the big sis in me worrying. My Dad owns the business that she was driving for, so there will be difficulties and financial strains on both their families.
Please count my family in your praises and requests to God. Thank you brothers and sisters!
Father, we lift Andy up to You.
Please, ease her pain, give her comfort and bless her with a quick and full recovery. Strengthen both families as they go through this trial.
We also ask You for grace and mercy where it concerns financial difficulties. May they be minor to none.
All this we ask in Jesus' precious Name. Amen!
Praying for your sister Missy. God bless!
Father, i pray for andy. i pray for her fast recovery. i also pray for their finances. comfort them, Lord. thank you for hearing our prayers. in Jesus' name, amen.
Please pray for my father-in-law as he is having his spleen removed tomorrow. He suffers from a rare blood disease and this is a last resort. Pray for total healing and that the surgery would go smoothly.
In Christ

Heavenly Father, We lift up the burdens of Angela's father-in-law and ask that you would comfort him, give his doctors wisdom, and lay your healing hand upon Him!
In Jesus' precious name, Amen!
There is eternal security in Christ, hence John 10:14-15: "I am the good shepherd. I know my own and my own know me, just as the Father knows me and I know the Father; and I lay down my life for the sheep."

Never Cast Out
Him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out. (John 6:37)
Is there any instance of our Lord's casting out a coming one? If there be so, we would like to know of it; but there has been none, and there never will be. Among the lost souls in hell there is not one that can say, "I went to Jesus, and He refused me." It is not possible that you or I should be the first to whom Jesus shall break His word. Let us not entertain so dark a suspicion.
Suppose we go to Jesus now about the evils of today. Oh, this we may be sure—He will not refuse us audience or cast us out. Those of us who have often been and those who have never gone before—let us go together, and we shall see that He will not shut the door of His grace in the face of any one of us.
"This man receiveth sinners," but He repulses none. We come to Him in weakness and sin, with trembling faith, and small knowledge, and slender hope; but He does not cast us out. We come by prayer, and that prayer broken; with confession, and that confession faulty; with praise, and that praise far short of His merits; but yet He receives us. We come diseased, polluted, worn out, and worthless; but He doth in no wise cast us out. Let us come again today to Him who never casts us out.
Father, i pray for angela's FIL. i pray for healing Lord. guide the hands of the doctor and give them wisdom. Lord, i lift up to you this concern. in Jesus' name, amen.
1 If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but do not have love, I have become a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.
2 If I have the gift of prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge; and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing.
3 And if I (I)give all my possessions to feed the poor, and if I surrender my body to be burned, but do not have love, it profits me nothing.
4 Love is patient, love is kind and is not jealous; love does not brag and is not arrogant,
5 does not act unbecomingly; it does not seek its own, is not provoked, does not take into account a wrong suffered,
6 does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth;
7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
8 Love never fails; but if there are gifts of prophecy, they will be done away; if there are tongues, they will cease; if there is knowledge, it will be done away.
9 For we know in part and we prophesy in part;
10 but when the perfect comes, the partial will be done away.
11 When I was a child, I used to speak like a child, think like a child, reason like a child; when I became a man, I did away with childish things.
12 For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face; now I know in part, but then I will know fully just as I also have been fully known.
13 But now faith, hope, love, abide these three; but the greatest of these is love.
—The Apostle Paul, 1 Corinthians 13 (NASB)
