The one thing I have noticed over the last year or so is that there are always more prayers than praise but perhaps that would be because we focus on the prayer needs and not so much on what God does about it. For me, sometimes I have not spent the time I needed to in thanking God for the thing He has done about the problem. We should be putting up more praise than prayer requests not because there is less need but because we have noticed all the answers to prayers that God has given us. Nevertheless, prayer is needed so here are today’s prayer requests and praise reportL
First the praise:
Jess, who was on the prayer list a while back, is doing better in that he has been moved to a facility which is closer to family and friends. There is much that is very private but this man who is dying has been through a lot of difficult times recently at the previous hospital. Now, because he is close to family and friends, they are able to help in a way they could not before his move.
Now for the prayer requests:
Jess still needs prayer concerning his whole situation. He is a terminal cancer patient who is recovering from other medical problems as well. His non-medical problems still must be dealt with as well. Some way needs to be found to do this.
Marisa needs prayer for a court battle concerning the visitation rights for a child. So far, it has all gone toward the other parent. Her son is battling to see his child at all. The mother has been granted custody and discretion concerning his visitation. She refused that. They are now back in court fighting to get joint custody and/or longer visitations. Yesterday, the lawyer for them did not show. The other lawyer “helped” with allowing a few hour visit a couple of days a week. Obviously, Dad does not think that’s enough. The lawyers are meeting today to try and work out a better arrangement.
Kendyll needs prayer. She is a very young child in the middle of a family dispute.
Nancy needs prayer. She has been through a major disaster in her life with injuries. She needs uplifting and peace about many things.
David needs prayer so that he will come to the Lord. Currently, he looks for underhanded ways to solve problems. He needs his heart changed the only way that it can be, through God’s love and grace.
Nancy needs prayer for health issues. She has COPD and is having trouble breathing though she is on medications for it. She uses oxygen while lying down but no other time. She needs to be free of this disabling disease.
Jennifer needs prayer due to a blockage in her kidneys. She is the loving mother of 3 children and has a wonderful husband who is by her side through all this. Please pray for the doctors to see the reason for the blockage and for it to be gone!
All those who are currently in hospice care so that they can know the Lord if they do not, get help with their care, have God touch them in a way that they will know beyond a shadow of a doubt that it was the Lord.
Father, we lay before you these people who are having so much trouble and pain in their lives. We pray that they are blessed beyond measure by You and with Your healing hands upon them, they shall surely know that it was You that touched their lives! We thank You, Lord!! You are awesome! In the mightly name of Jesus, our Savior! Amen.

Thank you and God bless you for your prayer for Jess. Others are now trying to correct his situation, too.
