Asking Prayer

Please hold my brother up in prayer...

His wife died suddenly late in October...he is visiting here now from out of

state , and the holidays are going to be very hard for him. Please pray also

for their daughters.

Thanks, friends.

The Lord is faithful and just to care for all of our needs.



Thank you Lord for undertaking for Mother during her illness.

Praise You for Your tender mercies and goodness.

Amen

These replies have touched me tonight..yeah...he called when mom was

near death herself and told us..they found (K) beside the vacuum...it was

still running..such a shock and so sudden. It seems our family had some serious stuff

going on all at the same time...but at the same time we also have a lot of serious faith!

I thanked the Lord last night that I was able to buy my brother dinner and make him

laugh...the first a small blessing..the second a small miracle.

Thanks for praying guys..

Love,

Sherry

Hello Sherry

Isn't it great when we share Jesus through our interactions with others?
His laugh comes from the love that breaks down walls. The Lord's love that fills us.

You a nice sister.

Thanks everyone again....

Yesterday my brother and I attended church here....what a tremendous

blessing! It was no accident that Amazing Grace was sung..the power of God

was so strong in the service it seemed palpable.

This was also (K's) favorite song and was sung at her funeral...

My brother was touched..we went to a quiet place and talked for awhile

after the service.

God knows how to touch us at our point of need.....
