Prayer Request:

My wife's grandfather had successful a hernia operation today (Praise God). Unfortunately, during a routine EKG, they seem to have found some blockage in his heart. He has been asked to rest for the next two weeks to recover from the surgery and then he is going to see a cardiologist.
I ask for your prayers for his family, my wife's family, and for the doctor's wisdom to do what is best for my wife's grandfather. Thanks.

Smoke and prayers up for your Grandfather's recovery Rev.

My daughter has had two surgeries for cysts. The first wouldn't heal so they had to go back in and re do it. Please pray that the healing process will speed up and she can get back to work and her life. She's been out for over a month with this. She works for AFLAC and that's a blessing because of the benefits etc. Her sick leave will be up the day after Memorial day, so please lift her up.
Thanks and God Bless all of you,
DD

My prayers go out to your wife and family. You've had a lot going on lately. Just remember God will never give you more than you can bare.
Love and God Bless you,

My mom always says: "God will squeeze you, but never choke you." :up:

She came through the surgery fine. She has to go into the Drs. office each day for check-ups. They said it was already looking good. She's so anxious to get back to work. She travels all over the U.S. for AFLAC and is bored to death right now. LOL Just keep her in your prayers for the healing process and for her spiritual healing also.
Luv,
Deb

Thanks every one. Right now, the Dr. says the healing looks good. I think he said granulizing. She's doing well and is up and about & hoping to be back at work in two weeks. Just keep praying the healing keeps on track this time.

A couple of Vids, very Euroish because I could not find a June Carter Cash version of "On the Far banks of Jordan:

Johnny Cash, introspective, Hurt is a nice cover indeed, what a soul that man had!

Great stuff Gram!

I just got back and am trying to catch up.

Deb, can you give us an update on your daughter and Rev how is your wife's grandpa doing? Any other prayer request updates?

Keith - can you send out a prayer for hubby? He's having a tooth extracted today but he's being put under anesthesia to do it and that always scares me. I've heard some nightmare stories about being under anesthesia.

Thanks.

My wife's grandpa is doing well, Pastor. He is recovering well from the surgery at my in-laws' house. I can't say the same for mother-in-law. :lol:
He is going to the cardiologist next week and we should know more, then.

Thanks for asking and for the prayers. :wink2:

Prayers for Aileen's grandpa Raul. Keep us posted.

I'll send one along too, Mary. :wink2:

You indeed have my prayers. I had hoped to just drop in fast and get on to the rest of my busy day, but have been pleasantly waylaid in catching up here. The rligion and spiritual;ity board always takes a lot of time especially for a slow typist such as me.

I have come to add many of the concerns here to my personal prayers. I am beginning to view my monitor console as an extension of my personal "chapel"!

She's doing good. Their hoping she'll be able to get back to work in a couple of weeks.
Thanks for your concern and prayers.

Good news, keep us in the loop, OK?

Some praise music and a prayer:
Breathe: Michael W. Smith

Psalm 139

139:1 O Lord, you have searched me and known me!
2 You know when I sit down and when I rise up;
you discern my thoughts from afar.
3 You search out my path and my lying down
and are acquainted with all my ways.
4 Even before a word is on my tongue,
behold, O Lord, you know it altogether.
5 You hem me in, behind and before,
and lay your hand upon me.
6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me;
it is high; I cannot attain it.

7 Where shall I go from your Spirit?
Or where shall I flee from your presence?
8 If I ascend to heaven, you are there!
If I make my bed in Sheol, you are there!
9 If I take the wings of the morning
and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea,
10 even there your hand shall lead me,
and your right hand shall hold me.
11 If I say, “Surely the darkness shall cover me,
and the light about me be night,”
12 even the darkness is not dark to you;
the night is bright as the day,
for darkness is as light with you.

13 For you formed my inward parts;
you knitted me together in my mother's womb.
14 I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. [1]
Wonderful are your works;
my soul knows it very well.
15 My frame was not hidden from you,
when I was being made in secret,
intricately woven in the depths of the earth.
16 Your eyes saw my unformed substance;
in your book were written, every one of them,
the days that were formed for me,
when as yet there was none of them.

17 How precious to me are your thoughts, O God!
How vast is the sum of them!
18 If I would count them, they are more than the sand.
I awake, and I am still with you.

May we come to realize just how much He loves us and knows us.
Remember if we ever think that we are not precious to Him, look at verse 13.
Someone who knits, takes their time. We are so very important to Him.
