In Need of Prayer

This has been a rough weekend for my youngest daughter and I would like to ask for prayer on her behalf. She has had problems since the beginning of her marriage but they have escalated to violence. She is trying to make decisions regarding the future for her children and herself, but is having a trouble making the changes she knows she needs to make for their safety. My heart is heavy and I am really worried about her and my grandsons. I pray that measures can be taken soon, before something happens!

We did have a bright spot this weekend - I have a new nephew. He was born on Friday evening and Mom and baby are doing great! His big brother is very excited and can hardly wait to get him home.

I am still unemployed, which at this time is not such a bad thing. My doctor has scheduled me, during the next two weeks, for a number of appointments and tests to be done. I would like to get them all out of the way before starting a new job.

Chance is finally "on the mend." He has really been sick with an upper respiratory infection. The meds prescribed by the doctor have done the trick. He still has a bad cough, but it does sound better than it did a week ago.

Addy spent the night Wednesday and Thursday this past week. It's always fun to have her around. I miss seeing her and the other grandkids. I would love to be able to see them much more than I do now. Candace brought the boys out a couple of days last week. They love to come out here because they can play outside without Candace worrying about them. We're far enough out and back from the road that they can play to their heart's content. They love to be outside!

Well, that's all for now. Please keep Candace and the boys in prayer, as well as her husband.

Mark 11:22) "Have faith in God," Jesus answered.

23) "I tell you the truth, if anyone says to this mountain,

'Go, throw yourself into the sea,'

and does not doubt in his heart

but believes that what he says will happen,

it will be done for him.

24) Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer,

believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.

25) And when you stand praying,

if you hold anything against anyone,

forgive him,

so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins."
