Prayer & Praise
Almighty God, give us grace to cast away the works of
darkness, and put on the armor of light, now in the time of
this mortal life in which your Son Jesus Christ came to visit
us in great humility; that in the last day, when he shall come
again in his glorious majesty to judge both the living and the
dead, we may rise to the life immortal; through him who lives
and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and
for ever. Amen.
I just love these prayers! Thanks Michael!
CK,
Thanks…these are the weekly collects from the Book of Common Prayer…
remember in prayer
John 20-29 – Thank you, Michael… Like you, circumstances are pressing on my daughter from every imaginable angle right now, Lynne just saved a patient’s life. The doctor said if she hadnt done what she did – snap decision – his patient would have died… He and her coworkers praised her, but hospital rebuked her for breaking hospital protocol… Better dead than break protocol? ?
John 20:29- Great heartache here The foster dog got away from my daughter and attack our half blind horse… she ran him full bore into a tree snapping his neck…. this is the horse that saved my daughter’s life years ago by running off a rogue horse that was attacking my daughter… The blessing was that it was a quick death… To know beautiful Suds was to love him… One of those horses who run like their feet dont touch the ground and full of a people loving personality – he wax truly a gift from God
If you stop by here a prayer to our Lord for comfort and strength for my lovely daughter will be so appreciated – it is the will of a loving God sometimes hard to bear, but He means it for good – for reasons we cannot see
Captain Kevin – My blood pressure is too high, causing my left ventricle to work too hard. Dr. added a second BP med and was genuinely concerned.,fibromyalgia
Michael – heart aneurysm and a bad valve, bad back and neck issues.
The New Victor – my mother was moved by adult protective services into a skilled care facility.
j2theperson – There’s a guy who is, wrongly, accusing our church of gross financial mismanagement if not outright illegality. There is no evidence his accusations are true and we actually seem to be on solid financial footing; however, we’ve already had at least one person leave the church because of him and there are quite a few people concerned about his accusations. Please pray he does not cause serious damage to our congregation, that people will recognise him for what he is, and that we will come out stronger for having gone through this.
Captain Kevin – Please pray for my oldest daughter. She is separated from her husband. This is probably the 3rd time in the 3 years they’ve been married. I’m not sure who is more at fault or if there is any abuse, so I just pray for God’s will. They are believers, I think.
brian – Not really asking for prayer just a thought. I will be getting some injections because of a back injury and will be talking with a surgeon concerning a disc fusion. My main prayer use this to help me be a better teacher and Christian, thanks.
JD – Marshal whose mother told him that she doesn’t love him
John 20:29- my cousin in barring a miracle he’s entering the final stages of his cancer… prayers have been appreciated and heard. .. They’ve brought him some good months. Jerry married his high school sweetheart and prayer for her and their 3 children (adults with families) would be so welcome now. They’ve been a close couple and now, even tho she is a Believer, she will face growing old without her life partner…
JoelG – filing for custody of my 2 younger teenagers. I found hundreds of explicit photos of my youngest daughter that I’m sure have been shared.
-My ex, daughter and I met to talk, discipline and love on our daughter. We’re all in the same page moving forward and she will be getting counseling.
John 20:29 – i have a son dealing with a gorgeous 16 year old daughter who is trying to come to terms with womanhood and who is in the custody of her bi-polar mother,
Linnea – Jon and Sarah. Please pray that they would know God’s love and would follow Him out of horrible lifestyles to freedom.
London- my mom who had surgery for pancreatic cancer and back surgery for three fractures in her spine. Caretaking is hard work at times and it seems that I lose track of time pretty easily
the new Victor – pray for God’s protection and mercy upon my children, who’ve been through a lot, including witnessing domestic violence in the other home, and that I am strong and engaged enough to lead them so they don’t turn out like the sons of Eli.
Bob Sweat – we are asking God to open a door to a small church somewhere in the US who want a pastor to love them and faithfully teach the Word.
Michael, Rick, Joel, Dan, capt. Kevin, Owen – wand to hear from God in their prayer life
JTK- ongoing back issue.

Remembering capt kevin and dan and their wives as they seek a new path
Bring healing to Michael and capt kevin as they have many health issues that are to difficult to deal with…take away the pain and depression. …take away the health issues. Heal them.
Praying the list with dusty, Lord
Praying for john20:29’s daughter today…give her comfort peace and strength
Thank you, dusty… She is healing from the loss, keeping the memories… the bereavement request, with praise to our God, can come off this list when you recompile it.
but the work situation continues… Perhaps we should pray for the doctors and nurses trying to administer good care in a corporate controlled industry would be a better request – rather than just prayer for my daughter?
Reading and praying here this morning … God’s wisdom, strength and mercies keep us all…
