A friend in dire need and prayer requests
PostPosted: Wed Oct 20, 2010 10:09 am
I'll make this short so not to bother people too much:
1. My friend who is literally like family and who is very much a mentor and brother to me has a girlfriend who has entered into full renal failure and has advanced stages of emphysema. They do not think she will make it. Praise God she knows Him which is comfort but obviously still hard on my friend. Please pray for strength, comfort, and peace for them both. I am hoping I can be a source of strength and comfort for him as well through all this.
2. Some people on here know I am dealing with medical illnesses. At the moment they are yet undiagnosed. The last specialist I went to is going to over my previous tests, make sure that I do not have specific illnesses. From there he stated that I may need to seek a referral to a teaching hospital and that I may have a rare disorder that none of considered. The symptoms for me is chronic pain (which they now have me on strongest dose of morphine for), seizures, loss of ability to walk etc. While I am daily trying to put this in God's hands, it still can "trip me up" emotionally and spiritually. Please pray that God will give me strength and encouragement through this.
3. My uncle is ill with lymphoma. He is in treatment but as with all cancers, it can be fatal. My best friend has brain cancer, which they were able to remove a large part of the tumor but she has some brain damage and is still in considerable medical need. Please pray for them both for strength and healing.
4. My other aunt and uncle are going to be full time missionaries as soon as their house sells. They are taking their family (2 children 11 and 7 years old) and are going to need funding, guidance and wisdom. Please pray that God provides. They have faith that He will, as do I, if its His will. Just praying they have the perseverance in the face of adversity.
I know this is quite a bit. Thank you for all the support and prayers ahead of time. It means more than you can know.
