Guess I got into yesterday's NEM just before the door slammed shut.  But now look - I'm first in today's!

My prayers are going up for Janet, Darrel and Beth.  I know our Blessed Lord will give them all strength and comfort.

And now it's almost midnight so I'm off to bed.

Oh Lord God, You commanded us to pray for one
another, and you promised us that we'd receive
answers.  Lord with our understanding it is beyond us,
yet our faith tells us it is so.  Without faith
it is impossible to please you.  So my sister Pat
and I join with others who are praying in faith,
and we stand it the gap for Darryl. 

Heal him we pray in the mighty name of  Christ,
our lord and saviour.  We rebuke the devourer in
the name of Jesus .  The thief comes to steal, kill, and
destroy but you've come, that DARRYL would have
life more abundantly.  Show him your healing lord.

I don't know his spiritual state Father, but you
do.  Draw him closer.  Use this to get his
attention, to draw him closer to you than ever.  If he
isn't yet saved, oh God draw him, compel him to
come in. Let his salvation and healing be a tool
to draw others to you. Let this be a new beginning
for him, not the end. 

Father we are in desparate times.  Lines are
being drawn.  It is now time, my God, to choose, or
not.  Lord our hearts have chosen you, but we are
not content.  Use us to draw others.  Use ME oh
God.

Bless the lord oh my soul, and ALL that is within
me bless his holy name.  EVERYTHING IN ME...ALL!!

Bless our precious sister Janet...give her peace,
and the righteous indignation to do battle on
behalf of her beloved Darryl.  Send others to stand
with them.

I speak peace, I speak healing, I speak victory. 
In the mighty name, above all names,   CHRIST.

Amen and amen!

Thanks so much Pat, for the privilege of praying
for our sister and brother. 

I am always available to pray.

God bless you so much for your faithfulness.

(I have since learned that Darryl is a Christian)

Thank you Father....bless him, bless my brother.  Strengthen him with might, in the inner man. You're faithful lord.

We're all holding you and Darrel, Janet...and Beth too.  Passionate prayers to our Father for everything you need.  We love you.

JEANNE -- You weren't the last in yesterday's NEM .. I was right behind you.     I'll just repeat my post here, if that's okay.
I just got the word about Darrel    ... I am in prayer as I type this and I want to thank Beth for posting here, also.  I will be awaiting any word as soon as it comes in.   And I am praying for added strength for Janet as she endures yet another crisis.  She has a strong faith and must know there are an abundance of prayers being lifted before the throne of Grace.

JEANNE!!  It is good to see you again.  I am sorry about your loss and I know you are still making adjustments.  It isn't always a smooth road, is it?  Welcome back!   

Pat I am so sorry that I missed your page last night but yes I was in bed, I heard the page, but didn't get up to see who it was. I assume that it was to tell me about Darrel, I am praying here along with everyone else for Janet and Darrel and for Beth too.

Grayce your prayer is so beautiful  and full of love. I prayed right along with you.

Jeanne it is so good to see you back I hope to see more of you from now on.
I know you must still be missing your beloved Gene, God Bless you dear sister.

Pat that is a great devotional this morning. Forgiveness is something that we must also do for ourselves. To remember that we are forgiven when Satan tries to throw the past in our face and cause us all kinds of inner turmoil. I know that he has certainly caused me a lot of inner turmoil over the years.

TTYL

Janet, I have prayed that God would somehow (He knows so well how) use all this for your good, for Darrel's good, for Beth's good.  And I Have also prayed that the doctors will have special insight and wisdom to deal with him.  Oh let Jesus Christ be at the very center of all!

Jeanne - so very good to see you here again!  Many, many times over the months I have wondered about you, your health, etc.  Jesus Himself is now your only Husband, but He is the very best!  And please don't be a stranger to this forum anymore, Jeanne - you're my MAC friend!  By the way, since you were last here I got a new IMAC, the one with the flat screen, etc.  It's pretty fantastic!

Hello!!

Just jumping in quickly to say, Sonifo, if you peek in -- HAPPY BIORTHDAY.

Gotta run, Kristi's crying.

Good morning.  I was just checking to see if there's further word about Darrel.

Jeanne, it was sure good to see your face and name pop up.  I know you've gone through a lot, and have thought of you often.

Grace, what a beautiful prayer.

We're supposed to have some sunshine today, and then a storm come in again tonight or tomorrow.  They've issued a high wind warning, but then again, they always do that.  We're used to wind here on the coast.  I love to watch it in the evergreen trees across the street.  I've seen branches crack, but haven't seen a tree fall, thank God, because there are houses below.

I'm helping my daughter, Kim, try to do some Christmas party invitations on the computer today.  She found some really cute paper.  We just need to line everything up and get them printed out   We shall see.

Have a blessed day.  Nita

I was just popping in too to see if there was any news on Darrel.

Still praying.

It's so good to see you, Mary Frances!

Please send me an email so we can get your email address fixed up?

Thanks so much.  Send it to patzscott@gmail.com

Love

Pat

My thoughts and prayers are with Darrel, Janet, and Beth at this time.   

That was a beautiful prayer Grayce.


Anna

Janet:  My prayers are with you at this time.  I will continue to pray for Darryl, Beth and yourself, that you will experience His comfort and grace at this time.

Lovingly and with many hugsssss - Judy

news on Darrel,Mom called this am and he flunked the stress test so they took him in for angiagram not heard back yet,Beth his surg was !pm

Thanks for the "welcome back" messages.  It is so easy to get away from a good habit and so hard to lose the bad ones.    

I just popped in for a couple of minutes to check on whether there was any news about Darrel.  Still praying for encouraging news.

Today I decided it was time to get back to straightening out and throwing out.  I have a whole lot of stuff to take to the Salvation Army and some that I need to call them to pick up. I had begun with all of this when the girl I was assisting and filling in for at work suddenly had to take sick leave and early retirement.  She had developed a rampant macular degeneration that didn't respond to any of the treatments they tried and her vision deteriorated very rapidly.  That left me working full time for a couple of months, trying to handle all sorts of things I'd never been trained for, while the job was advertised, interviews conducted and finally a choice made.  A couple more weeks of helping the new girl get settled and I'm finally back to part time. 

I learned a lot during those weeks - including that I'm too old to work full time and keep house and take care of the yard, especially during the hottest summer we've had in years.  I just don't have the stamina any more.  So things really got behind and now I need to play catch-up.    Thanks to my wonderful neighbors, the grass got cut regularly and the leaves got raked. 

Thanks for the message, Beth.  If Mum phones again, please tell her that we have a little army here all praying for her and Darrel.

Did you get the Private Message I sent you with my phone number, Beth?

Jeanne, many of us as you know were thinking of you when you lost your dear Gene and we're so sorry.  I will always remember my telephone conversations with him and the other day, I was looking through some papers and out popped a photo of him that you sent to me.

I'm so very happy that you've come back and posted in CP and as Al Moak says, you were his MAC buddy!  LOL

Talk to you later, 

As we all rally around praying for Darrel and Janet, this hymn came to my mind...

I do hope we hear more about Darrel and how the angiogram went.

Thanks, Beth, for the update on Darrel.  I know you will keep us posted as you receive additional news.  As Pat says, we are all praying for all of you.  If it becomes difficult for you to post here, be sure you call Pat ... Call her anyway, come to think of it.   There's so much more you can convey in a conversation.   

Hello Everyone! Its been a very long time since I have been around-lots of things going on in our lives-The older girls are going to Mexico in April for a Missionary trip with our Church-they are really excited-I have written almost 30 letters to help them with their support-so far they have earned $40 dollars. We are still homeschooling all the kids and 3x's a week we take them to a place called Sports USA and they do a homeschooling PE day-its been alot of fun for them. We are still living in the same place as we didn't get all the things done we would of liked to have-to sell our home-we are hoping that we can list it this spring or summer.I just started a new weight loss program called Prism and have been on it for 3 days-so far it is going good. I am getting my Christmas cards ready to send out-we have had over 10 inches of snow in the past 24 hours so the kids have been having alot of fun playing in that.
We have found a wonderful church that we really love called "Word of Life".
Thats about it for now-I will try to post more often.
Hugs in Jesus

Rachelle

Nice to see you Rachelle.    I'm so happy that your children are going to Mexico on a missionary trip.  What a great experience for them. 

Don't be a stranger, honey.  You come back often. 

On your new weight loss programme, do you do a lot of this?   

No news yet?

Hi, friends,

This has been an exhausting week, and I have to be at the doctor at 7:30 in the morning for a look at my foot. Will try to report more tomorrow night.

G'nite, friends,

Ruth Ann

I have not had a chance to read the postings since yesterday when I posted so wasn't aware of Darrel having to be taken to the hospital and having the angiogram.  If this was his first angiogram I am sure it was a bit scary for him, although they probably gave him the amnesia drug so he won't remember much about it.  Hopefully it will provide the informaiton the doctors need to determine what is causing his pain.  I just hope he hasn't had a heart attack.  I am certainly praying for him and especially for Janet and Beth, as I have always felt it may be harder on the spouse and family, than on the person who is having the problem.  Beth, thanks for keeping us advised.

Jeanne, how wonderful to see your postings as it has been so long.  I hadn't been aware that you had lost Gene until a few months ago and was certainly saddened to learn of his passing.  

It is late so I am not going to stop here for tonight.  I have had a full day and am just back from choir practice and ready to turn in for the night.

Good Evening, I have posted a serious prayer request and could use all you prayer warriors help, In The Name Of Jesus.

And Bless all of you, Alma

It's that time again.  Time to lock this door.

You will fine a new door open here.
