A Family in need of your Prayers !

Hello dear bloggerettes ....It seems here in the last Month I have been calling among you all for prayer.



It seems as though Life happens in seasons ...their are seasons of Joy ..and seasons of Sadness ..

On the front for my family we have graciously and humbly been blessed that my Dad and my Sis are recovering from each of their incidents very well.

However I have a dear friend that I have not been in contact with for the last few years that I met up with again this last weekend.

We caught up on all our families have been going through good and bad ..

However ..my dear Friend has had her share of tough times for many years now ..starting with her son who fell out of a truck in his teen years and had some brain injuries ..to a daughter that has had some troubles ..to raising a grand child ..and in the most recent years her husband at 48 had a heart attack has had a second one and also a stroke with numerous other health issues. Because of her husbands illnesses ..in trying to get S.S. they lost their home ..so as you can see they have really had alot of tough years. This last weekend when I saw her she was telling me how her son needed dental work and she was trying to raise the money for it. I guess it was pretty bad because he was on anti-biotics waiting for a dental place to except him...but other than that all was going fairly well.

So this morning we received a call ..the story I can get so far is that her son on Easter day complained of not feeling well ..by yesterday he was having flu like symptoms. He roomed with his aunt and she called my friend this morning saying that Danny Collapsed and the paramedics were on the way. ...so all I know at this point is that Danny Passed away this morning. Our Friend couldn't talk very long of course this morning to be expected ..we are so concerned for her ..and of course her husband because of his health and as him and his son were very best pals.

This Family so very much could use your prayers ..they so badly need the peace that passeth understanding to consume their minds and their bodies ..they need overwhelming Grace to get through this and to begin on a new road of life one of healing.

This so very much brings home ..how precious life is and how quickly it can be plucked from us. As the Bible say in the Blink of an Eye. We are here on this earth for what seems like a long time to many of us ..but it really is but a moment in time when you stop to think about it. We must cherish each day we have and each moment that comes to pass ..and remember that the greatest thing is "LOVE" !!!!

Thank You dear friends as I know what Wonderful Prayer Warriors you all are and I know you will be praying for my friends. Their Names are Joni, Rich, and their Grandaughter Samantha

Thank You !!!

  5. Praying and it does seem as if there are more troubles than time to pray for those in need. Times are difficult and only going to become more difficult; thank God we have the hope and salvation of Christ to carry us through.

  6. Dear Sara,

    I am so thankful your dad and sis are recovering well. God is so good! I am heartbroken to read of all your friend is going through. I will be praying for her and her family. Thank you for sharing. The Lord is near the broken hearted and He will help them through this very difficult and sad time. I don't know what we would do without HIM!

    Much love,
    Paula
