Prayer Request

A regular commenter on this blog has become one of those friends I will never personally meet, but is considered a friend, nonetheless.  She just this past week buried her beloved husband of 40 years.  Her home is owned by the company her husband worked for and must be vacated within 60 days.  Her adult daughter is chronically ill.  The lady has a lot on her plate.

Through all of these hardships she has not lost her faith in God.  She and I both believe in the power of prayer.  I know that some of you are already bringing her situation to the Throne of God.  I would humbly ask that any of you who are of a mind to, please include her and her daughter in your prayers.

    You have been in God's safekeeping since time was just a breath in a moment, and will continue to be even after this plane of existence ceases.

    Thank you for making us aware of this person's situation and prayer request. It is a wonderful thing to be asked to visit with God and ask for his divine intervention and protection. May this good person and her daughter be blessed beyond their needs.

    AND Vicki, I truly enjoy your blog and keeping up with you. I haven't made many comments lately, but I'm a daily reader! Thank you!

      CW...Thank you for your kind words. I strongly believe in the power of prayer, particularly when many of us are doing the praying.

      I am glad to hear that you drop by often. I don't have the backyard chickens or the gardens or the homestead like so many of the bloggers I visit do, so finding things to write about is sometimes a stretch. But I am very lucky to have made some internet friends along the way, so it is worth it. :)

    Like you, I've been praying for her for quite a while and will continue. Glad to see you're bringing out the troops.

      Gorges...That's what we do when a friend needs help, don't we.

    Added to the prayer list!

    Don't comment often, do read frequently. Was thinking of you the other night when I was putting up catsup from buckets of tomatoes. :)

      Thank you, Suz...
      Wow! Buckets of tomatoes! You are a busy lady. I no longer can in that kind of quantity, but continue to plug along a little at a time. Every little bit helps. :)

    I'll put her and her daughter on the 'top of my prayer list'. That's what a close friend always says to me when I'm going through challenges. I too believe in the power of prayer from first hand experience.
    I can't imagine how hard it is to lose your husband and also your home at the same time.
    Please keep us updated. And thanks for this post.

      Thanks, SJ...I can't imagine either, how difficult those circumstances must be. But through it all, she maintains her faith. There is precious little I can do for her except to pray, and I believe not only in the power of prayer, but also the power of many praying.

    I didn't see this until this morning, but will certainly add my prayers to the list.

      Thank you, Rev. Paul. That means a lot to me and I am sure it will to her as well.
