A New Decade begins

Wishing all of you abundant blessings, and a closer walk with Christ our Lord!

I'm sick

I'm not physically sick, just emotionally sick of all the sickness in this world. So many children, and adults having cancer or some other disease, or illness. Some dying from it. I hate it!

I read so many blogs where kids and adults are sick. Some just normal sick. Ex. colds, flu, just all around yuckiness, and many who have a disease and are fighting a losing battle.

I get so attached to these families, that it pains me when sickness occurs in their family. I feel like it's happening to my own family. I hurt when they hurt, I grieve when they grieve.

I do know I have an awesome and powerful God who saves and heals. I don't understand it all, but I know God is hearing my prayers and thousands others, of our intervening for these sick people. I know His answer, whether it's the answer we want or not, is His perfect will.

He deserves the glory. He is the great I AM! And to know we can boldly go before His throne and ask for anything, is a privilege I don't take lightly.

Today is no different. I go before my Great and Mighty Lord and ask for complete healing for:

Stellan, Heidi and her children, Sheryl, Abby, Samuel, Cindy, Tricia, Bridget, Mistee, Summer, Rooney and little Goose (allergies), Phoebe, Perry, Phyllis and so many others.

Lord hear my prayer.

Doctor update and Perry's 50th

I was able to get an appointment this afternoon with the doctor. He stole 2 tubes of blood from me, for further testing. I will get the results on Tuesday.

As far as he could tell from my today vitals, he sees nothing majorly wrong. My heart is fine, blood pressure is fine, oxygen levels are great. And he really doesn't seem to think anything will come back abnormal from the blood testing.

If the tests are normal, then he told me to step up the exercising. (not really what I wanted to hear), drink more water, and if things get worse or just don't change and continue to bug me then he can do further testing that would take place in a hospital. I don't anticipate that happening.

Actually I feel better then I have been for the past several weeks. Which can only mean that the prayers I asked for from all of you have been heard, and answered. Prayer is the best medicine I can think of, so a big humble, heartfelt thanks to all of you.

I will keep you posted on the results when I get them on Tuesday.




Birthday news. HAPPY 50th BIRTHDAY PERRY!

He's having a party tomorrow, so I will post old man photos then.

Today we laid low. We took Phoebe to school, and stayed for her chapel that they have every Friday. She was Christian Flag pledge leader, so we had to see her on stage doing her part. We are proud. We then went to the chiropractor and Perry had his back cracked. We then went to "The Barbershop" where he got his haircut, while Abby and I ate peanuts they provide. We made a mess with the shells though. Off to Target where Perry bought an Espresso coffee machine. He has a new love, and that is it. Back home, we hung around, his sister dropped some birthday stuff off, I went to the doctor, picked Phoebe up from school, took a baseball cap back that he didn't like, bought Phoebe a shirt with the money I got back from the hat, went home, Perry's mom was over dropping more birthday stuff off, and realize that this one giant runoff sentence.

Tomorrow morning we will go shopping for food for his party, then the girls and I are going to my sister's house for her birthday party. Her birthday is also today. Then late afternoon we will mourn the passing of Perry's 4th decade in to his 5th decade. We should have a houseful. You are all invited by the way.

Boy, did I miss anything? Just have to remember to fish my child out of the bathtub soon.

Have a great weekend. And thank you again for your prayers.

Prayer request (update)

Update: Because of the concern of my husband and one of my sisters and from you sweet people, and myself, I will call the doctor tomorrow. I'm due for a check up anyway. My sister is familiar with this kind of stuff, so she said just go get some blood work done, and take it from there.

Thanks so much for your prayers, I feel the peace. No doubt I will keep you posted on the what's, when's, and why's.



I am one who loves to pray for others. I am not big on asking for prayer for myself. Not because I don't think I need it, I just don't like asking for things. But that is dumb, so now I am going to ask for prayer for me.

For several weeks, I have been feeling run down and short of breath, and wobbley, and just not right. I think I have low iron. I'm hoping that's it, and nothing more. I started taking vitamins, so we'll see where that takes me.

I'm not a run to the doctor kind of person, so I'll deal with this as long as I can before the dr. thing happens.

I'd appreciate your prayers for feeling better, and God's wisdom on what I am to do about this.

I know I can count on you. Thanks.


one more thing....Perry is 50 tomorrow!

Pray for Cora

Cora and her family need us to storm the gates of heaven for her healing. She went in to the doctor with an ear infection and is now receiving treatment for stage 4 neuroblastoma cancer. They are in need of our prayers. Check out their blog here.

Time to Pray

So many in need of prayer. Please take time to pray, or be in agreement with me for these prayer requests.

baby Stellan- developed RSV and is in ICU right now.

Amanda- at the dr. right now for a test of some concern.

Heidi- traveling and dr. concerns

Heidi- my niece.. has a uterus that just can't hold her babies. she is stopping her meds as of yesterday, and baby is ready to drop out. baby will be 6 weeks early.

Candy- her co-worker received a bad mammogram report. God's peace to her as she waits for the results.


I know God is in control of all these situations, He just wants us to give it all to Him. To God be the glory in all these situations.

morning update: I woke up around 4 this morning, and tried to get back to sleep, but couldn't. Then it finally hit me...God woke me up to pray for these requests. He's been doing that for years, but sometimes I just don't get it right away. It doesn't frustrate me at all, when He wakes me up to pray. I feel blessed and important to God when He asks me to do something like pray. I will continue to PUSH....Pray Until Something Happens.

God is so faithful

Praise be to God. Let us praise Him and glorify His name.
I just was over at MckMama's blog and I have never been so touched at what I was reading. Her newborn son, Stellan was diagnosed with a heart problem that the doctors said would result in his death either before he was born, or shortly after. She asked for prayer. People around the world, stormed the gates of heaven, asking for his healing. God heard and He healed Stellan. He his a beautiful healthy baby.
She is so thankful and grateful for our prayers, that in turn she wants to give us something back. The best gift anyone could give anyone, is prayer. So she is asking for prayer requests and is going to pray for each one of these requests. Click on her name above to read her post and to request a prayer.
I read a few of these requests, and feel led by the Lord to pray for these people, no...these friends, too. So, throughout the day, and however long it takes me, I will also be holding these prayer requests (all of them) up to God. Only He can answer these, and only in His timing, and only in His way.
Praying is a way to glorify God, and He soooo deserves it.
I love you Lord, and I lift my voice to worship You, oh my soul rejoice.

Pray for Tricia

Please pray for Tricia, as she has a biopsy done tomorrow. Check her story out
http://cfhusband.blogspot.com/

Tricia has CF and had a lung transplant in April. She then developed lymphoma. What a crappy thing. I hate cancer. I hate it so much. I can't think of anything worse, except for maybe the devil himself.
Anyway, she is having a biopsy done tomorrow to see what has developed, and where they can go from here.
Please join me in storming the gates of heaven once again, (remember to pray for Stellan too) for God to give Tricia a complete healing. May the doctors be stunned at the perfect miracle that took place. May they have only perfect healed results from this biopsy. May they who do not know Jesus as their personal Lord and Savior, accept Him as just that, all because of this perfect healing from God.
Dear God, A girl needs her momma. Let Tricia live to raise her beautiful baby daughter. And a husband needs his wife. Let Tricia live to be a helpmate to her husband. All the glory be to God. Forever and ever.

Pray for Stellan!

update: Stellan is born, and doing GREAT! The dr.s can't find anything wrong with him. Our God is so AWESOME. Praise His Name forever. Thank You Lord! No other explanation but GOD.



Stellan McMuffin will be making his debut into this world tomorrow around 9:30 a.m.
ok, so McMuffin is not his real last name, but check out here mycharmingkids.net to find out what all is going on. The dr's say that he has an enlarged heart, so with that may come some severe complications. They also said that he should have died several weeks ago. Well, several weeks have passed, he will be born tomorrow. You see, we have a great and mighty God who has taken this little life in the womb, and used him mightly, to bring others closer to the Lord. When a dr. said, "he will die", Gods miracle said, "he will live". Tomorrow the dr.s are unsure how Stellan will take to living outside the womb, and breathing on his own. Well, God is not unsure, and whatever happens, Stellan will live. Please join me in storming the gates of heaven, tonight and tomorrow to intercede on Stellan's behalf, to God, our Father in heaven to give him a complete healing. Oh, I pray that the doctors are shocked to disbelief about why this little boy has no problems. I pray that people who hear of this great miracle, turn their lives over to Jesus, because they know there could not have been any other way for Stellan to live, then by the miracle that only God can give. Our God is mighty and greatly to be praised. To Him be the glory. Always and forever.

Please Pray
