SPECIAL REQUEST

While we try to walk and live daily by faith, there are times in this journey when fear seems to instantly grip our hearts and it feels like the life is being sucked right out of us. Thus we are writing to request that you pray along side of us that Father's perfect love would cast out the fear that gripped our hearts today. Kate shared with me today that she has noticed some pain in her thigh over the past week. To Kate the pain seems similar to what she experienced last summer which led to her re-diagnosis. We put a phone call into her doctor. Many questions were asked assessing the pain. The pain is not severe and is not continuous. The fact that last week's MRI was clear is a very positive and encouraging factor. So we will address the symptom of pain and monitor any changes in the pain. We have spent time praying and are more peaceful this evening than we were this afternoon. Please pray that peace will fill our hearts and minds and that spirit of fear and discouragement will not take hold of us. Please ask that Kate's pain dissipate and resolve quickly. How blessed we are to be able to tug on the lines of prayer support you make readily available to us. Thank you!

Holding on to grace,
Elaine

    My prayers are with your family as you jump each hurdle put in front of you. Our father is certainly watching your struggle, and the goodness of your love will prevail.

    Elaine,

    As we have been continually doing, we are praying specifically for this pain and for it's immediate exit. We know that our Jesus is taking care of all three of you. We love you. Please let us know if there is anything that we can do.

    "Be still and know that I am God." He speaks these words confidently so that we can remember Who is in charge. I believe this fear is the devil who must have been infuriated at our celebration last week. Tough! I pray Philippians 4:1--"The peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." Amen.

    Dear Kate, Maggie and Elaine,

    We are holding on tightly to the cord that binds us as sisters in Christ. Know that you are being held on to and that we are undergirding you all in prayer to the Lord.

    I pray that as you wake today that you will have comfort in knowing that Jesus Christ is your strong fortress, You can run into it and be safe.....

    As we go to church tomorrow with the Minick family and others on this side of the world. Know as with remembrance of you all that we are praying for you all.

    Stand firm and take courage the Lord YOUR GOD is walking with you and goes before you, stands at your side to uphold you when you feel weak, is your rear guard when you feel faint.
    He is Jehovah Rapha - God is my healer!

    We love you all~
    Melissa and family.....

    WINGS OF PRAYER.......... Just close your eyes and open your heart and feel your cares and worries depart. Just yield yourself to the Father above And let Him hold you secure in His love. For life on earth grows more involved With endless problems that can't be solved, But God only asks us to do our best Then He will take over and finish the rest. So when you are tired,discouraged,and blue, There's always one door that is opened to you And that is the door to the house of prayer, And you'll find God waiting to meet you there. And the house of prayer is no farther away Than the quiet spot where you kneel and pray, For the heart is a temple when God is there As we place ourselves in His loving care. And He hears every prayer and answers each one When we pray in His name, "Thy will be done." And the burdens that seemed too heavy to bear Are lifted away on the wings of prayer.

    God's love and peace is sooo much bigger than your fear! Greater is He that is in us than he that is in the world.

    I asked the Lord to bless you as I prayed for you today,
    to guide you and protect you as you go along your way.
    His love is always with you, His promises are true,
    and when we give Him all our cares you know He will see us through.
    So when the road you're traveling on seems difficult at best..
    Just remember I'm here praying and God will do the rest.

    Our love to all,
    Jim, Debbie, and Cory
