Prayer Requests for May 1, 2009
From Carl McKever in FL – I waned to let everyone know that I failed my Microsoft 70-236 Exam. You have to get a 700 to pass and I got a 397. The voucher code that was given to me for Microsoft Second Shot Offer is not working. Please keep me lifted up in prayer that I get the finances to pay for my retake.
From Michael of Big Bend Poets – members who are not in best of health: Larry Gross, Beth Stevenson, Trudy Plotz, Bill Woods
From Diane - My niece Maeve, who is three months old, was diagnosed with Osteogenesis imperfecta, also known as brittle bone disease. My niece's insurance won't pay for the testing or for care for Maeve. The Drs. figure she will eventually be in a wheelchair. At this time she is so tiny she isn't even near where she should be for her age. She also is not developing well with any of her motor skills. I know that prayers works and ask you all to say a prayer for little Maeve and her mom, Lisa.
Please remember Georgina, I would like to ask for prayers for Georgina. She was born with a number of health problems. Her heart is in the wrong place and her abdomen muscles are not developed.
From Millie - Please ask the entire prayer circle to pray for the economy ... so many people are losing jobs, and those of us in retirement are finding our nest eggs disappearing, even though we were careful and did everything "right". Young people with good careers will recover from this economy if they are careful, but those of us who are facing old age or are otherwise financially stressed with children, mortgages, or loved ones with illnesses, are facing possible poverty through no fault of our own. Surely the Lord does not intend to reward the greedy who have stolen the fruits of our labor, or for those of us who have followed all the sensible financial rules to lose our future possibilities to praise His name.
From Eileen: I needed a rest from the chemo. So right now I am trying to regain my strength. I have to walk with a walker and I am not happy with that. The next step is another cat scan.
From Patty – Please pray for my dad who has cancer.
From Lisa -Please pray that my stepson will make healthy choices for his life now that he is out of prison. Please also pray for my safety and that he won't break into the house, and that any fear I may have would be replaced by faith and the knowledge that the Lord is in control of all things.
From Christine - please pray for my fiancé and I both who have been laid off... I am a single mother, I have bills, my son has braces, we need food.... Please, please, please pray for us, that not only do I either get called back or find another job (whatever God has planned!), but that my fiancé gets a job too. I am just in shock right now, I'm going to go to the farm and just relax. I know that prayers are answered, and that it's a powerful thing, so I thank you from the very bottom of my heart if you could include us in yours.
From Tarja – My father Jim has been diagnosed with a brain tumor. He has had the tumor removed. It was found to be cancerous. He will have lengthy chemo treatment. Please pray for Tarja’s mom who has congestive heart failure. Please pray for Tarja that God will grant her the patience and strength to get through these difficult times.
From Jonna in TX - Please pray for my friend Joe and his wife Laurel as Joe battles liver cancer. They have had good news recently that his tumor is shrinking so all the prayers are working, but they still need all the additional prayers they can get.
