PRAY

My heart hurts and my stomach is in knots. I am hurting alongside my good friends who are going through such a hard time right now. PLEASE keep them in your prayers.

To You Lord

Lord, today is another day and You are still on Your throne. Thank You for Your hand that never leaves or forsakes us. You have called Your children to bring You glory in everything, even when it's hard. I know that right now there are so many people who are lifting up sweet baby Jack to You. You have heard every prayer, every word and Your ears and heart are soft to those sounds. I thank You that with every word You give ear to our cries and our pleas to save and strengthen this precious life. Lord I pray that You would breathe clean oxygen into his lungs and that his levels would be and stay where they should. Lord I pray for the machines that are working, that they would do their job well but that he would be able to get off of them soon. Give him strength to breathe on his own and to live well. Lord, I pray for Joe and Missy, that you would give them sweet rest, that they would cling to You and to each other. I pray that You would be strengthening their marriage through this and that they would have a renewed appreciation for the life that You give. Lord, bless them and cover them with Your love. Help them to hold their heads up to You, to hold their hands up to You in surrender. That their times of worship would be sweet and deep. Lord You give abundantly, I pray that You would give to them Your perfect will, open their eyes to see it unfold for Your glory.
In Your precious name I pray these things. AMEN!

Sweet Baby Jack

Please pray for my friends Joe and Missy. They had a sweet little boy, Jackson, on June 13 who is now in the NICU, he was born with MAS (meconium aspiration syndrome).
Please pray for his little body and his lungs that they would heal quickly and that they would grow stronger.

Prayer 2007

Ephesians 6:18 "Pray in the Spirit at all times and on every occasion. Stay alert and be persistent in your prayers for all believers everywhere."

Hello friends!
I have been challenged lately by a good friend of mine in the area of prayer. I have a growing passion in me to pray and thought of no better way than to get on board with this idea as well. I would love to commit to praying for you this year. If you don't mind, I would love for you to send me 5 specific prayer requests that I can be praying for you through the year of 2007.
Either send back by email or snail mail. If you don't have my info already you can send your requests to francygirl527@gmail.com and it will get to me. ALSO, send me a picture of yourself! I will put them together in a prayer book so that I can pray over you even though I may not be with you.
PLEASE allow me to pray and lift you up. Then at the end of the year I will email those requests back to you and see what the Lord has done! He works in unexpected ways and it is amazing, the power of prayer. I have been challenged by this and am excited to see what He does in your lives and also with my life as I spend intimate time with Him.

Philippians 1:3-4 " Every time you cross my mind, I break out in exclamations of thanks to God. Each exclamation is a trigger to prayer. I find myself praying for you with a glad heart."

I look forward to hearing from you and to pray for you all!
MUCH love,
emily
