Daily prayer chain, a tad long but a good one: Dear Jesus, look down on me this morning with sympathy, for I feel much afflicted. I have a headache and my back hurts. I did not sleep well and I did not sleep long enough. I am worried about my health, I am worried about my money, I am worried about my family. My home needs repairs. People do not give me the respect I deserve. Nobody listens to me. There is a certain person who is driving me crazy! I dont have as much energy as I used to and Im not sure I have enough to get everything done today that I want to do, or even, that I need to do. The crazy and even destructive things people say in the media and the political mess in my locality and my nation make me despair. How can people be so stupid? They just seem to get worse and worse. The country is run by morons; how can people fail to elect people with some minimum of competence and honesty? Even in the churches, people cannot see or understand the most basic things about you, and the hypocrisy of so many Christians makes me half-ashamed to call myself one sometimes. And then, Lord Christ, I realize. The world is not perfectible. There is only one place free from pain, worry, frustration, and all of the nonsense and damage that the human mind can create, and that is in your bosom. Hold me tight, Lord Jesus; give me the strength to endure the pain, give me the certainty of hope to avoid the anxiety, give me the blessed knowledge of Your coming again that I might not be stressed out about the things of this world; for they shall pass away soon enough. And in the meantime, let me grow in you, that I might see my own wrongdoing and with the help of your Spirit, simply dissolve it away. It is in this world that Satan can find his prey, the fertile soil for evil. Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done, great Lord. Help me to prepare myself, I pray, in the name of Your love... Todays prayer goes out to a special friend Damion Hutchins who is a man of God who is a Chaplain at Hospice of the Upstate in SC and deals with the dying so needs prayer to keep on going as that has to get one down. Todays prayer goes out to Louann Baptiste Frost whos doggie died and the love of her life its sad when our critters cross the rainbow, to Gary, Nyla Christian Dickinson my cousin husband who is recovering from heart surgery and her son is flying home today, to Phillip Smith whos brother is home now but still has cancer, Melanie Mellz Poppell whos son is sick and Melaine needs prayer too, for Terry Lynn McAlister and Belinda Joyce Dixon friends Sheryl Wilson...cancer, Marcia Thompson...brain disease...both classmates of Terry and I, Dean Barham whos sister Wendy Barham Webster who needs lots of prayers, RF Perez brother truly needs a kidney and hes on his way to TX with his parents there but is flying home today so hope he has a safe trip, and Patti Maisch husband truly needs a liver, adding a dear friend Cindy Monroe Atkins who is dealing with a lot of undiagnosed health issues, pain is almost unbearable these days, Dana Simmons who just want to let you know that she became septic, aka blood poisoned by a bacteria mostly found in the hospital, so she can easily say that hospitals are not places for healing. It is a very opportunistic and difficult bug to treat, but she is in good hands with God by her side and may go home today. Prayers still going out to Beverly Williams Michael who I hope is recovering from cancer. And sending a prayer out to my sister Jan D. Self as she just needs them and thats all Im going to say about that, Sending prayers to Robert Lee whos on the liver transplant list, to Nikyda Resto as her dearest friend and her family. No parent should ever have to bury their child, especially under the circumstances of being shot by law enforcement at 12 years old. In no way, shape or form, Mike Blalock keep him on your prayers as he fell off a ladder and broke his leg looking at surgery this week he know God will take care of this prayer is appreciated, Lisa Grizzle Oldham who went in for surgery Friday, Carolyn Loy pray she got her Mother out of the hospital, Brenda Crozier needs healing so pray for her, Shirley Dodson Smith Mother-in-law out of hospital, she had her 3rd. hip surgeries and one more to go, Jackie Cannady who needs praying for badly, and to Penny Brackett Ives who had surgery on her foot and I know is in pain but shes at work. I know Im forgetting folks so if you or know of anyone that needs prayer please add them in the comment part and Ill add them the next day. And we all say AMEN!!
