|  | Gracious LORD, we lift up to You this fellowship.  Many of us have never 
met, and never will on this earth, but are united in You.  Some have yet to 
meet You....  Grant that this may be a place of peace, light, and love.  
Where You are seen, and not just the fallen face of mankind.
I lift to You the dear ones mentioned in note 6, who are in need of prayer 
just now.  Brian - we thank You that his condition is not as serious as was 
first thought, but we ask for Your continuing hand upon his body and his 
life, his family and marriage, his job - including the interview of Monday 
- and his move.  Be his peace throughout these things, and work Your 
sanctification within, dear LORD....
For the family Nancy brought before us, we pray my Father.  That You would 
meet them in this severe distress.  That You would be their comfort and 
peace; that You would protect them from vindictive hearts; that Your mercy 
would be shown in and through this family....  I pray also for the 
murderer, that his heart would know conviction and true repentance.
I bring Fran before You Holy LORD.  Thankk You for the recognition - the
diagnosis.  I ask for continued wisdom for the doctors in treatment, and
for opportunities for Fran to know Your loving mercy, even in this
outworking...

    RE: .397  My wife went through a period of adjustment when she stopped
    working to stay home with our children (she had always been in the
    workforce).  I told her that we are dependant upon one another and that
    when we stop being dependant upon each other, our marriage is in
    trouble.  It took a while, but she got over it, taking a part time job
    helped as well.  Our home life improved immensely with her being at
    home.

|  | Hi Chele ....
Praying for Peter and Judy and their daughters....  Also for Pam & Malcolm, 
in the distress of the situation for them all, that the LORD would bring 
His real healing to their hearts.  And for you, Chele, of course, that the 
LORD will give you the right words to share, bringing light and life to a 
dark situation.  Praising Him for the gleam of light reaching Pam and 
Malcolm.  He has to take us to the end of ourselves and our resources 
before we admit our need of Him...
Graham, may the LORD be your Healer truly and completely, filling your 
heart with an awareness of His loving care, and building up your physical 
resources with His joy...
Phil, praying for encouragement for Danielle, and strength for you, 
standing by her through this traumatic time.  Also, that the LORD would 
reveal His perfect plan to yuor hearts, as the new path opens up before 
you.
Thanks for the reminder, Steve .... I was speaking to someone the other
day, who was lacking assurance.  It leaves them prone to say almost
anything, losing their grip on the reality....  And we are all only 
supported by His grace.  
Dave, upholding Dave Floyd's daughter Toni Marie.  And for the family as
they watch and wait.  My heart aches for them.... 
Brian!  Good to see you here again, my friend.  Prayers continue over all 
aspects of your situation.
May God bless you each one, richly, from His bountiful storehouse of 
love...

| 7.18 | Update on prayer request | COMPLX::THELLEN | Ron Thellen, DTN 522-2952 | Thu Jun 10 1993 18:21 | 17 | 
|  | >    A good friend and dear brother in the Lord (Jim) has applied for a
>    position in the Electric Utilities division here in Colorado Springs. 
>    This position opened up when his supervisor retired and quite a few
>    people have applied for the position.  He has an interview tomorrow
>    (June 2) at 1:30.  Would you please pray that his interview would go
>    well and, if it be God's will, he be selected to fill this opening.
    I heard from Jim last night and he told me that God has chosen to keep
    this door closed.  Jim told me that he was angry at first but quickly
    changed his attitude about it and realized that it was not God's will
    for him to have this job.  He also stated that of the people who
    applied for the job, the one that was selected was the one he was
    hoping would get it (after him, of course).
    Jim said to thank all of you for your prayers.

| 7.31 | For Phil and Dani | PEKING::ELFORDP | PAUL ELFORD | Mon Jun 21 1993 09:38 | 23 | 
|  | Father, for Phil and Dani - 
         It is because of your great love for us that you have a wonderful, 
         purpose for each of our lives. Your eye remains constantly upon 
         us, and you do not allow anything to happen to us which is outside 
         of your Divine plan.
         
         It is also because of your love that you want us to enjoy every 
         part of our lives, living them to the full, giving you the glory 
         through doing this, and this includes our recreation. 
         
         Praise you that Phil, although falling like a wounded bird, was 
         not more seriously hurt, that your ministering angels as it were 
         broke his fall. Quicken now the healing process, give the medical 
         staff added wisdom from your heart, and may they be astounded at 
         what you will reveal about yourself through this episode.
         
         Minister also your great and loving comfort to Dani as she comes 
         to terms with a double dose of potentially bad and stressful news. 
         May she experience that deep sense of "peace which passes all 
         understanding"

    Sorry, had to let out the emotion first... :-(
    
    Phil,
    
    If you are reading this... remember a dear Brother's wife who is
    similarly been unable to do the things she loves [for her family no
    less].  I told her that when I hurt my ankle and couldn't *do* for my
    children and I couldn't *go* anywhere... God used that time to speak
    to my heart, it was as though I audibly heard, "Be still, my child and
    know me."
    
    Maybe God wants your attention for a while.  I dunno... but I'm praying
    for you.
    
    In His Love,
    Nancy

Praying for Carol and the family, over the MS situation as much as the 
broken leg...  May she know the LORD's presence close beside her throughout 
this time of trila.
Some 30+ years back my mother had MS, and went for a course of trying out
some then new treatment under test.  It was effective for her, with no side
effects, for which we were very grateful, but it was a very testing time
as you'll understand...

|  | My heart is with you all, reviewing requests from before I was on vacation, 
to rejoice with those who rejoice, and weep with those who weep, knowing 
His loving arms surrounding all.
Particularly, Brian's domestic and work situation, and the move...
Rod N., as Chele told us of his departure...
Dave, though you won't read this ... your marital situation, and - we're 
going to miss you a lot, bro.  
Progress in healing for Carol's leg.
Cpmfort, direction and discernment for our sis Nancy... and especially for 
that deep peace in the heart which comes only from Himself...
For Danielle, Phil, that our dear LORD will delight her heart with a 
revelation of Himself which makes everything else a mere passing shadow; 
that she will be delighted to see herself as He ses her, enthroned beside 
Him...
Good to hear of potential progress, Jim.  Praying for more!  How did it go?
 								...Andrew
My gracious and so loving Father, thank You that we can bring all these
dear friends before You, and know that You can take our prayers and use
them to perfect us each one towards the time when time, for each of us
ceases; as we step into Your presence; when we can look back, and say
"Isn't He *wonderful*" - when  we know fully, as we are fully known; as we
see how tenderly and lovingly, yet effectively, You have been working in
and through each of us....  I bring before You the trials and tribulations
each has shared here, and ask for Your personal intervention, reaching into
our hearts and lives, that we may be made more like You here, and that the
enemy would be thrown back in disarray, as the glorious Name of Jesus is
lifted up on high.  Be blessing to our brother Dave, as he guards his use 
of working time, and in his life walking before You with his wife.  Be 
restoration to our brother Jim, in that marriage which crumbled, and thank 
You for signs of Your hand at work there in their children...  But 
especially that Jim's wife would be close to You...  I ask too, for Your 
protective healing for Brian's marriage, and protection for many many 
marriages under stress, that we may lift our eyes to You Who is our 
perfection, instead of feeling disappointment when we do not find it in 
each other.
LORD of Creation, delight us with Your restoration of perfect health to
dear ones in distress, whether it be physical attacks, or other ways on
which the enemy would seek to undermine our clarity of sight towards you... 
Carol, Brian, Mark's wife Joy, Phil's wife, Danielle, and so many others... 
My Father, be comfort to our sister Nancy, that in the burden she carries
for You she may be very aware that You are bearing the weight while she is
but the channel.  That she will know the way of blessing You have for her 
to move forward, and peace about the times of staying still...
LORD, You are such a delight to us!  The pain of parting, whether through 
physically moving on, or because one completes their mission for You here 
is an ache which cannot reach beyond time, because we know that what we all 
look forward to is that completion, when we all stand in your presence, for 
the fulfillment of eternity, whence there is no parting ever, at all.  Not 
only from each other, but not from You either.  To see You!!!! Whatever 
happens, nothing can take away that joy....
 						In Jesus' Name...

.Good to hear of potential progress, Jim.  Praying for more!  How did it go?
 
 Went pretty well, Andrew, thanks!  We had a nice dinner on my birthday 
 (lobster :-)  and a nice evening.  My oldest son and I had a nice chat 
 during which he indicated he'd love to have Dad home again.  My ex (Kathie)
 and I didn't have much chance to talk seriously that night, however, but it
 was a nice time.  
 I spent a few hours with her yesterday in between church services (I invited
 her to church but she declined) and we had a nice time, and then we had quite
 a chat on the phone last night about our relationship, the Lord, etc.  It
 was a good chat, and I think we are moving along nicely.  She said she wants
 to come to church next Sunday night :-) (she works Sunday morning) and we
 are going to go out one night this week.
 Prayers still graciously accepted.

    PDM, I could say hey dummy didn't you listen to your wife? :-) :-) 
    But I won't because I know you'll throw something at me! %-}  Instead
    I'll just say thanks for asking and believing that we will pray.
    
    OTS, do you really take time to pray?  Sometimes I say I will but then
    I don't and I end up feeling rather guilty and praying after the
    fact... but praying nontheless.  
    
    If you were the only person to read this conference would the requests
    for prayer be trusted in your care?  May sound like a silly question,
    but I've asked myself this question as well.

 The boy had the heart surgery last week and apparantly they didn't find

|  |     This probably isn't the topic to discuss "the reason".. BUT, the reason
    the boys give is "to many rules"... The family is going to counciling.

|  | Hi Bob,
My thought was not to discover what the reason was for myself or even discuss 
it, but rather, to point out that although the boys were home and safe, the 
family could still use our prayers. 
In Him who knows and loves us all,

|  |          In an effort to try to keep tabs on the requests posted here I 
         have decided to physically jot them down in my diary. Now, the 
         $64k question, can I keep it up?
         
         Chele - for your father-in-law, that perhaps through this 
                 experience he will realise in a fresh way the frailty of 
                 life, and will commit himself to God.
         
         Krysia - for Bob, that the tumor will have God's healing hand upon 
                  it to quicken the healing process/remove it completely
         
         James -  for your Father, that God will remove these cramps, and 
                  that he will recognise His hand upon his life. Also for 
                  safe (and worry-free) travelling for your mother.

Chele, your father-in-law, asking that this check will stir his spiritual 
heart to greater depths, that he may be aware of the love of our LORD, in 
restoration...
Nancy, for Bob Matusiewicz, for the hand of the LORD upon him, to raise 
him up for His purposes...
James, "before they ask, I will answer" - as far as your father's
non-prayers go, and in accordance with Romans 5:8... Praying 'anyway', dear

 Will be praying, Phil...
 years ago we had a somewhat similar situation in our church. While she
 was not the child of an elder, a young woman went off to a Bible college
 and wound up pregnant.  Folks in the church, while not "celebrating" the
 event, were quite supportive of her.  Unfortunately her own family, who
 were not Christians, were not.  She lived with my wife and I immediately
 before the birth of her daughter, and for a few months after that.
 While it was difficult all around, the church folks were quite loving and
 supportive and I didn't hear much about gossipping, etc going on.

         Have added Dave's name to the list.

|  | David Stone was the VP in charge of Software here at
Digital when he left late last year to accept the Presidency
of a division at AT&T (Communications?).  He had been at
Digital for about 20 years, living in Switzerland when he
headed up something in Europe for 12 years.  He was one of
the few generally believed to have have a good shot at
replacing Ken Olsen as head of Digital.  (Bob Palmer and
the former head of Europe were the other two most commonly
mentioned.)  He is a Christian.  He currently lives in
New Jersey.  He's in his forties (I think).

|  |     Just yesterday I was thinking about David Stone and what his situation
    is.  Will keep him in my prayers.
    
    Over the weekend, someone was talking about how a Christian can face a
    difficult situation (terminal illness).  The answer was, to see it as
    God giving you the opportunity to be ready (many depart suddenly
    without any "warning").  I pray that David will be ready to meet the
    Lord with joy when the time of his departure comes.

|  |     Praying for David.  I had the good fortune to meet and spend some time
    with David when he was the Commencement Speaker for a Focused Technical
    College at which I was an instructor at Babson College.  He was a very
    bright, warm, friendly man.  Having had the experience, even though God
    gives us this warning, the loved ones that stay behind, must face the
    loneliness and I pray God will soothe and comfort them.

        (the 1st through 5th graders) which has now got to be started.
        Challenging work ahead, but I am extremely excited.!

>Hi Ron, praying for Cathey and her dad....  Does he know the LORD?
    Andrew,
    We have never been able to determine that.  You see, Cathey's dad was
    an alcoholic, which is partly the cause of many of his medical problems
    right now.  He no longer drinks, but I remember during one visit, after
    he had been attending AA for a while, he spoke freely about God and
    even was quoting some scriptures.  However, some of the things he was
    saying didn't quite make sense and when we tried to pursue his
    statements, he would rattle off some more or change the subject.
    Unsure about his standing with the Lord.

    Nancy, I know the feeling of loosing a dog. Our dog of 5 years either
    ran off or was stolen this summer.. We still have not gotten him back.
    
    So, your Prayer request is not trivial. A dog is a member of the
    family. 
    
    We've since rescued another dog from the Humane Society who has brought
    joy to the family... BUT, Boomer (our other dog) will still be #1 in
    our hearts... Ralph (the new dog) is a gift from God though!
    
    Hang in there Nancy. AND, if I could suggest... Make plenty of posters
    and distribute them WIDELY throughout the neighborhood. If you have
    VETs in your neighborhood, put one up there... You can never put up
    enough posters..!

    weeks from now in regards to what they find out about my surgery.  It's
    female stuff and better left not written out in detail... but at this
    time I have no reason to believe it's serious.  And with all of your
    prayers, it'll remain that way!!!! :-)
    
    I'm home, groggy, but wanted to let you guys know I'm okay.

|  | James,
I think that you and the other members of the group should seek legal help
with this.  You need to go to the police or other authorities because this
is harrassment, and is probably not legal (Shouldn't be legal).  Also, I 
would suggest that you get your home phone numbers changed - (to an unlisted 
number if they have such things), and possibly get you business number changed
as well if they have been calling there.
I will be praying for you all.

|  |     Re: Note 7.204 by KAHALA::JOHNSON_L
    
    Leslie,
    
    Agreed, this sort of harassment is illegal, even in this country.  Our
    considered reaction is to keep praying for the perpetrators rather
    than to go through the anti-harassment channels provided by Digital
    Telecoms.
    
    The calls have been at work for all of us.  Since Digital will not give
    out our home telephone numbers, we are safe from that particular
    trouble.
    
    Since we know the identity of the people involved, should we wish to
    take action the Police would have absolutely no trouble finding them. 
    They are on the social security network, and we have their names and
    sufficient information to allow the police to trace them, even though
    they are itinerants.  We just don't want to do this just yet; as per
    scriptural comments on how to resolve conflicts between (supposed)
    christians.

|  |          James,
         
         A disturbing problem for you and your colleagues humanly speaking 
         - as I enter this note, the first line of a hymn have come to 
         mind:
         
                         May the mind of Christ my Saviour
                             Live in me from day to day
         
         It is my prayer that you will be given divine wisdom, from the 
         very mind of Christ Himself, and that through it all He will be 
         glorified.
         
         
         John,
         
         Praying for Nancy that she will know the Lord's comforting arms 
         surrounding her, and that her mother will know relief from the 
         depression which is dragging her down.

|  | Andrew just catching up again here, and bringing my prayers to the LORD for
you all...  especially those mentioned recently - 
    from Josie - The little children and husband left bereft after the 
    accident when Ana Nu�ez died.  LORD, meet them in that heart wrenching 
    pain of having the mother and wife of that home torn from them so 
    abruptly.  My heart is filled with tears to think of them, as I choke 
    on the 'why's...  
    For Josie's dad, for a gleam of healing light through the darkness, as 
    Jesus touches his heart with creation power...
    James' anonymous phone call - for conviction to the heart of these 
    self-centred accusers, and for wisdom, patience and peace, with the 
    assurance of God's presence for James, and those of his fellowship...
    For John's friend Nancy, and her mother, that Your living presence 
    would give a joy to their heatrs that this world cannot shake.
    For Paul's friend Geoff, in Belfast...  For an awareness of Your 
    powerful hand in control; that the enemy cannot go beyond what You 
    permit, and that the children of the kingdom are here for Your purpose, 
    and be touched without Your knowledge and permission.
							In Jesus' Name...

scene" in front of the other members of your church.

|  | Hi Ann,
Praying for Priscilla...
�    Sometimes that part in the bible where it says God doesn't 
�    give us more then we can bear, it seems like times it is.
Maybe you mean 1 Corinthians 10:13 :
"There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is
 faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but
 will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to
 bear it."
This really refers to being tempted, but could also include trials, in the 
sense that Job suffered, where his wife urged him to 'curse God and die', 
in Job 2:9.  God cared enough about Job to refine his soul to the best it
could be.  It didn't feel like God's love while he was going through it, 
but that's really what it was.  God loved Job enough to do His best for 
him.

    God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye

    ye may be able to bear it." 1 Corinthians 10:13 
    
    Praying for Priscilla, for the Lord's hand upon her.  And for you, Ann,
    to be comforted and to be a comfort. "Blessed be God, even the Father
    of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all
    comfort; Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able
    to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we
    ourselves are comforted of God." (2 Cor. 1:3-4)

 Lord and my son seems to have a desire to get things straight..I told him
 last night that now is the time to get things straight with him and now
 is the time to start praying about his role as a husband and father and 
 to pray for the salvation of his kids.  I left him a tape about getting
 things straight with God and he said he and his fiance will come to church
 Wednesday night...
 Jim still too young to be a father in law and much too  young to be a 
 grandfather.

Daniel 3
 16  Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, answered and said to the king, O
Nebuchadnezzar, we are not careful to answer thee in this matter.
 17  If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the
burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver us out of thine hand, O king.
 18  But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy
gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up.
This is faith that is unwavering.  Whether consumed by the fire, or saved
from it, we will not serve other gods.
If the Lord is willing, may He save Mike Lee from his fire.

| 7.242 | Our Focus will be on GIVING | JULIET::MORALES_NA | Sweet Spirit's Gentle Breeze | Wed Dec 01 1993 12:21 | 21 | 
|  |     Ron, I think you are right... this is a time of the year in which we
    need to focus on the saving Grace of Christ and give our hearts and
    praises on Him.  
    
    For me, I think my family has been taught that Christmas is receiving
    [kids] and this year I'm seeking to do something different.
    
    A suggestion I had from a friend, which I plan on executing is to make
    Cookies Plates for the elders in our church and couple in their 60's or
    older.  My boys and I will make these up, homemade, put on plate and
    deliver while caroling to each home.
    
    I'm going to have my boys choose a good duty task for one of our
    neighbors, walk their dog, rake some leaves, take out the garbage, mow
    the lawn, whatever they can handle and do well.  
    
    They aren't gifts from Santa this year [there is no Santa and I'm
    beginning to resent what he stands for], they will however, be allowed
    to receive gifts from family members.

|  |     
    I'll say a prayer for JoAnn. My current manager (not my next manager,
    who is still late for our meeting) has a very sick mother, as well.
    It seems there are so many ill people nowadays....a former elder in the
    Christian community I belong to (who now works with a small community
    in Ft Collins, Col), once talked about his twin brother, a Christian
    leader who died after a long illness in which he was in intense pain.
    No one could understand why he had to suffer so. Right before he died,
    he became extremely lucid, looked up from his bed and said "Now I
    understand" and then died. We'll probably never understand why there
    is all this suffering, but we have to have faith that it will work
    out for the best. I've never suffered the loss of someone very close to
    me, so there is no way I can know the pain that entails, but there
    is someone who does know, and may He comfort JoAnn and those who know
    and love her

|  | My prayers added for so many ... I've been out sick, so haven't entered 
here over the last 2+ weeks.  Now I have been able to review what I have 
missed, and bring all you dear ones before the LORD...
Especially Neil's family, with the ache of JoAnn's situation.  My prayers
are with each of you there, Neil... Am I right in understanding that there
are young children who are struggling with the theat of bereavement?  Hugs, 
bro... and tears.
James, for John & Kerryn, and their knowledge of God's hand setting them 
aside for the time of recovery...
Nancy, for all those affected by this flu epidemic.  I remember one year 
when the kids were small, and the bug had gone round and round us again and 
again...  We hit rock bottom that Christmas...  But the Rock was still  
there.  Sure, it's bad for the kids as they learn to go through suffering.
But its desperate for parents, struggling to cope with the extra load, a
fractious family, and that lurking feverish feeling that says *I* want to
exercise my right to be fractious too ... only to realise that it's all to
teach us we haven't that right... ;-{

tension, that it will be a time of learning and healing under the LORD, 
that He would break down barriers and flood the family with His love as you 
each learn to recognise Him in each other, and in the home... 
Especially for Billy, with the devastating realisation of a problem with 
his own personality.
Gracious LORD, reach out Your hand into Billy's life and tenderly melt his 
heart as he realises what he has done, and remembers how Jesus has taken 
responsibliity for *that* sin, as a part of taking all his sinfulness, that 
the memory of this time would be a strength to him in knowing "Jesus, my 
righteousness"....  And LORD, I ask that You would also touch Peggy, to 
realise who she is before You.  That you would melt away the grief and 
shame of this time, and minister to the hearts of all concerned.  Bless my 
dear brother Bob also, that he may know great strength from You, in 
offering Your loving care to each membert of the family according to their 
needs.
Thank You LORD for bearing my sin..

         will quicken the physical healing, and that he will suffer no long 
         term effects, also for his emotional healing. Praying also that

met in 1993.  Thank You for the strength You have developed in him to meet 
these things, and the knowledge that You are his loving Father in heaven,
and that You are in control.  Be with him in this latest test, and 
especially in the preservation of the son you have entrusted to him.  Grant 
perfect and rapid healing, we pray, skill for the surgeon, and grateful 
hearts to You, both in Bob's family, and in the family of the boy who did 
this thing...  Thank You LORD, that though the damage is so close to the 
eye, it did not actually harm the eye directly.  We ask Your protection for 
this family, that You would surround them continually with your arms; that 
the angels would accompany them through the days to come...

    Just read your  prayer request and wanted you to know I am praying too.  
    
    Heavenly Father,
    
    I ask your guidance and comfort on Bob's family and your healing hand
    upon Bob's son.  Lord, your word says that trials come to us for many
    reasons, but I am called to remember particularly the reason of
    perfecting us.  At times, I wish we didn't have to grow because
    sometimes the pain of growth seems so unbearable.  Father, you know
    Bob's needs more intimately then even himself, please give him strength
    and comfort during this time.  In Jesus' name, Amen.

    I  come to you on behalf of my friends Lord.  For Lisa that peace would
    come into the hearts of the grieving.  May the Comforter be poured out
    in that family.
    
    Father, for Michelle as well, this is such a delicate time for her and
    the baby.  Lord, please touch Michelle and her baby this hour and give
    the doctors wisdom as they prescribe her treatment.
    
    Father, for Jim, Lord, be with him, calm him, give him direction with
    his family.  Lord, I ask that Kathy be calmed as well, give her an ear
    to what is right and best for her family.  Lord, protect Scott through
    this time...Lord, his physical health, his emotional and spiritual
    health are all needing gentle love.
    
    And finally Father, for the struggles of many in here who have set
    goals for themselves for the new year, weight loss goals, financial
    restoration goals, family goals, or even spiritual goals.  Lord, though
    my eyes have not seen many who participate in this conference, you know
    each person intimately and you know their needs.  Lord, I ask that you
    meet those needs and keep them close to your heart.  In Jesus' name,
    Amen.

Remembering your friend, Ann, who suffers from depression, that the LORD 
would bring her relief and comfort in His presence...
Remembering Bill and the family, Jack, in their tragic loss this Christmas...
And Michele, with the baby, that precious gift, for God to preserve with 
peace patience and safety, to the day of full development and birth to

Praying with you, Jim, with Scott's request, and so glad at the clear EEG 
result.
Lisa, bearing up your aunt Judy and cousin Heather and the family, in the
loss of your uncle Bob, that the LORD would be a comfort to their hearts, 
and give them the peace of His loving presence.
So sorry about your Christmas, and your dad's reaction to Kerry, Julie...  
If he usually reacts badly to Christmas, then perhaps it wasn't a time he 
could easily change his rules.... We'll continue to pray.

    hospital.  I just pray I am home when it happens as we now have two
    children to think about!!  Actually, our church has been extremely
    supportive!

    I ask that you give Steve the endurance that he needs right now as he
    suffers this pain.  Lord, I know that you are aware of Steve's needs
    more intimately then I, and ask that you meet those needs and give him
    rest and comfort.  In Jesus' Name, Amen... and I will continue to pray.

Steve (L) - for your mother's safety, and peace of mind for you both; that
the threat would be removed.... 
Steve (A) - for relief from this pain, and a right diagnosis and speedy

    peace provide you greater opportunity to serve and reach the world.
    - A door the Lord closes no man can open, but a door the Lord opens
    no man can close. It was recently said to me Bo, attitude is equivalent
    to altitude! Soar high my brother, and reach the full potential God
    has for you. I will be praying. May the doors open wide, may God,
    release the flood gates of his grace upon you.

    your heart that you're definitely leaving?  Just unsure whether to pray
    for open doors here in Digital or not.
    
    Having been there, I have a bit of an idea of what you may be going
    through at this time.
    
    I'm so grateful that we serve a faithful God, 'who has never seen His
    children begging for bread.'  I'm also reminded of Jeremiah's words "I
    know the plans for you, says the Lord.  Plans to prosper you and not
    harm you; plans to give you a hope and a future."  Whatever befalls --
    employment in Digital or outside -- I *know* that it is able to add
    eternal blessings to you.  Your obedient spirit is an honor and
    testimony to Him!

	Steve,
	Congratulations!
	Praying for Timothy and your wife.  My daughter was on antibiotics
	from the first few moments of her life (I was on them, too) due
	to the long time between my water breaking and her birth (60 hours).
	I also spiked a fever a couple hours before she was born, so they
	suspected an infection.
	Emily never contracted an infection, and was allowed to leave
	after 72 hours of observation.
	Please keep us posted on the family's progress!

|  |     Ron,
    
    I'm so sorry for your loss.
    
    When my dad died last year, a sister reminded me that Yeshua said,
    "Blessed are they who mourn, for they will be comforted."  I had always
    thought of that as distant future - "in the sweet by and by".  But my
    experience was that He was comforting me in the present in what was a
    tremendous blow to me on every level.  The pain of the loss was

|  | My LORD, I ask for Your hand upon Graham for good, that You would do a work 
of creation within him, that his health would be restored and refreshed.
Holy God, I ask that You guide Rick in his future employment; that You 
guard him from any hasty or wrong decisions, and light up before him the 
path in which he should walk.  Thank You for those words "I am the way, the 
truth and the life", and that they apply to the way to eternal joy in Your 
presence in all aspects of our lives...
My Father, I bring Ed Guinan before You as a dear brother in the LORD.  You 
know his hopes and faithfulness, and love for You and Your work.  Stir his 
heart with the joy of Your presence right now, I pray, that knowing his 
life is so really in Your hand will be all the fulfillment he could desire. 
And knowing You, his Father, by his side, will be all the family he could 
long for.  Bless Nancy in ministering to him also...

	It seems as though Ed has accepted that he will die. This may very well
be the case, according to the doctors. But with the miricles that the Lord has
done with others who have been in similar positions, my hope is he still keeps
faith in that he could be healed. IF it is the Lord's will, then healed is what
he will be. I really hope he hasn't given up hope.

    I hope that this does not offend anyone in here.  They are catholic and
    from conversations my wife and I have had with Marianne, it appears
    that they do.  I don't want to imply that catholics are exempt from a
    saving knowledge of our Lord and Savior.  Far be it!  There are many
    catholics that I know (in fact, many of you who write in here) that
    obviously are born-again believers.  I also don't believe that being
    catholic or any other denomination (attending church services, etc.)
    automatically means that you know the Lord.  There are many churchgoers
    (not only catholic) who are just along for the ride.  Playing the game,
    as it were.  Please understand, I grew up catholic.  And although I
    knew who Jesus Christ was and I understood that He died on the cross
    for our sins, I did not come to know Him as my personal Savior until my
    wife and the pastor of the church she attended at the time explained
    what it meant to accept Him as Lord and Savior.  In other words, I knew
    who Jesus was, but I didn't KNOW Him!
    I didn't mention yesterday but attached to the note that she asked me
    to read was a second sheet of paper with a scripture quote (can't
    remember what it was right now).  It indicated, to me, that they are
    both looking to God for strength right now and believing that He can
    work a miracle in all of this.
    Again, I hope that I have not offended anyone in here.  That was
    certainly not my intent.  Please forgive me if anything I said has hurt
    you.  Sometimes I am not able to put down in a note what I want to
    convey.

| 7.404 | John -- really blessed my heart to see your prayer request | LEDS::FIESTER |  | Mon Mar 21 1994 12:00 | 26 | 
|  |     John,
    
    Just got into the file and your prayer request was one of the first
    I saw...
    
    Just to encourage you in this new heart attitude.  You have chosen that
    portion which is better.  I can see the Father's heart rejoicing that
    you have turned to Him as truly your Lord, as well as Saviour.
    
    Yes, like Sampson, there are consequences to our actions.  The Lord may
    not always remove them from us.  But rest assured that in His economy,
    nothing is wasted.  Truly, He works all things for good for those that
    love Him.
    
    Be encouraged, John!  Be encouraged!  He is your strong arm, He is your
    joy, your strength.  He will make a way for you.  There will be peace.
    
    I am rejoicing for you today!!  I see great victory!!
    
    I pray that the Lord would bring one or two strong Christian men into
    your path to help disciple you, keep you acountable, encourage you in
    the days ahead.
    
    In Him,

|  |     John,
    
    I echo what Greta has so beautifully written.  Praise God that you are
    coming to the right places for solace, comfort and repentance.  I
    understand intimately that God is very forgiving, yet He is not mocked
    and we must reap what we sow.  I am divorced... and it is painful.  I
    also know God's comfort and have known his arms to wrap around me when
    I'm lonely....
    
    Also, sing... sing Praises unto Him, no matter how "unnatural" it may
    feel at this time of mourning... Sing songs that mention Jesus... 
    
    "They that wait upon the Lord, shall renew their strength, they shall
    mount up with wings as Eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they
    shall walk and not faint."
    
    May you ride on Eagle's wings.

    how did I get this fire in my life
    all is not certain, but I will get by
    listen - I'll tell you why

You just care for them, as the LORD would, asking Him to reach their 
hearts.  It takes an awful lot of patience, without seeing anything 
happen....

|  |     Ann,
    
    Praying for the boy, that he will feel God's love. I pray for the boy's
    mom, that she will not give up in her attempt to reach him. I also pray
    for the boy's father, that he can find the strength to resume in his
    attempts to reach the boy..
    
    You see, dad's washing his hands will only work to send the wrong
    message to the boy.. He needs to see continuing love and caring from
    the parents...
    
    Above all... the boy should not be given up on!!! No matter what it
    takes. 
    
    Bob
 | 
| 7.433 | Thank you, God | SUBURB::ODONNELLJ | Julie O'Donnell | Tue Apr 05 1994 17:01 | 27 | 
|  |     Hello,
    
    Sorry I haven't been in for a while, but I'd like to share something
    with you.
    
    You remember that I asked for prayers for my brother recently - he had
    split up with his girlfriend and had chest pains, so went to his
    doctor.
    
    It's the first time I've known chest pains to be a blessing in
    disguise. While checking him over, the doctor noticed a mark on my 
    brother's face, just beneath his eye. My brother, being a happy-go-lucky 
    sort of person, hadn't really bothered about it. The doctor suggested that 
    he go for tests.
    
    My brother has just had that mark removed in surgery. It was skin
    cancer, fortunately in the early stages, although he has to go for
    check-ups and treatment until they can give him the all-clear.
    
    How he managed to get skin cancer in this country (where I'm beginning
    to forget what the sun looks like :-)) is anyone's guess. The doctor
    did ask him if he'd been in a hot climate, to which he replied "What?
    On MY money?!!"
    
    So, I'm actually thanking God that my brother had those chest pains
    because otherwise he'd never have known about the cancer until it was
    too late.
 | 
| 7.434 |  | ICTHUS::YUILLE | Thou God seest me | Wed Apr 06 1994 07:26 | 17 | 
|  | Julie!  What a mercy the LORD took your brother to the doctor so the skin 
cancer was caught so early!  Praise the LORD!
Ann, any update on your aunt? - also remembering your 13-year old relative, 
and praising over his mother's new job!
Bob - heard from the in-laws yet, on their progress towards Oklahoma?
Graham - remembering Alex before the LORD today again... Also Lori-Ann &
Martin, and Jessica, with the aches and hopes they must be undergoing... 
Update on 6.664 - 'hundreds' attended the funeral of the murdered 12-year 
old schoolgirl.  May the LORD speak to them concerning the need for us to 
repent as a nation and individually...
							God bless

|  | There are many burdens on the heart from all the prayer requests which have
been flowing in over the past few weeks.  Good to hear where the LORD has
answered.  Updates are appreciated to keep our prayers on target... 
Continuing to remember Todd and Jack, Jim, in their different situations
and needs.  For Todd & Julie's continuing peace and assurance as they face
the greatest reality together, of eternity...  For Jack to find that
forgiveness which surpasses understanding and brings the peace Todd 
witnesses to...
Daryl, for your wife's grandmother ... 
Gil, your friend separated from his family
Dale, your friend with the speech impediment needing employment...
Steve L, for your uncle Larry's full recovery after that heart attack
Glen, your aunt who has such an onslaught of medical problems.
Brach - it is important that we, as faithful employees should continue to 
	pray for digital, even as we are light and salt here (are we?)  
	Thank you for that reminder.  Looking at the later turn-around in 
	stock prices, perhaps the prayers are beginning to take effect!
Steve McC - Wendy Thomas and her family .. 
	(currently on a much-needed 2 weeks medical leave). 
Nancy, for your surgery .... for the LORD's hand upon you in protection 
throughout this time, and on Matthew and Clayton.  Also re Rafael, and 
praise for the reconciliation with your mother.
James - praise for Trish's recovery!
Mike ....  It doesn't seem a year since 1st April.  Asking for the LORD's 
leading for you, and for yuor assurance of His way.
						God bless

|  |     Praying for you Phil.  I'll pass on the same encouragement to you that
    I received just last night.  God is on the throne, He still loves you
    the same as He did when He sent Christ to die for you.  Keep your eyes
    upward.
    
    With love,
    Nancy
 | 
| 7.509 |  | ICTHUS::YUILLE | Thou God seest me | Thu May 19 1994 07:01 | 31 | 
|  | Phil,
... what can I say?  Other than Nancy said. God had your whole life in view
from before creation, and He has never let you out of His care.  He's not
about to now.  Keep us up to date with how He leads you...
Steven, bro .... I guess you're on the way by now (or will be before you
read this), but you have nothing to fear.  God also has your life protected
in His hand.  You don't get to step into His presence until you've finished 
your jobs down here!!!!  
The bitterness of the divorce days changes; the murder threat my reflect a
sore and shamed heart, may attempt to cover over personal guilt, but is
unlikely to result now in action which would have been expressed in the
heat of the moment...  It is God Who has brought this opportunity at this
time; Who has been working over the years in both your heart and hers.  I'm
not talking turning back the clock or anything like that, but forgiveness
and healing.  Even if only one can forgive, it removes from that one, the
burden and guilt of an old wound coming between them and God.  But if both 
can, the relief is immense.
� I think the Lord, has given me a peace about it, but that fear still
� lingers on. 
Hold onto that peace from the LORD, and remember that His perfect love
casts out all fear. (1 John 4:18) 
I'll be praying, bro...
						God bless

|  |     Phil,
       I am saddened to hear that you may be leaving us, but that sorrow is
    shadowed by the joy and excitement that is in my heart. For the chance
    to start anew, to move on and to change is a vitality that keeps us
    sharp. Phil, look forward! I will not mourn the day I am tapped on the
    shoulder, I look forward to it. The only thing keeping me here is lack
    of faith and trust the the Lord is king of all. (in all honesty) If I
    did not have a family to worry about, I would have been gone long ago
    pursuing my dream to have a farm.
    
    Cheers Phil
    Peace be with you, Shalom

|  |     Wow! Phil!  I'm very sorry to hear your news - but excited for you at
    the same time.  What looks so dark and scary at first is ususally the
    first step towards something better, more challenging, fufilling.  I
    feel the same way PDM does - I would have been gone a long time ago if
    I only had the faith of a mustard seed :-(  Not to diminish the impact
    this change (if it occurs) will have on your life, but I think it's
    easier in the respect that you don't have the worries of supporting a 
    family at this time.
    
    Will be praying for you during this stressful time that God will
    clearly show you the way.  GOD HAS A PLAN FOR YOUR LIFE! :-)

|  |     for a technical to layman's perspective, let's say they took the "baby
    carriage" but left that which fills it.  (took uterus, left ovaries) 
    good news because she will have less problems later in life as her body
    will produce its own hormones.
    
    I am not a doctor, nor do I play one in notes.  This is just my take on
    the procedure (they call it a PROOOCEEDURE - from City Slickers), but
    it's a surgery!

    we seldom learn the firt time or the second. Some of us do not learn
    until the ten or fifteeth revelation. Therefore, I pray hear Steve A's

|  |     Father in Heaven,
    
    Praise be to you who knows and sees all that is going on with your
    children.  Lord, I ask that Steve be comforted now and know that with
    your help he can learn to be the husband that you have created him to
    be.  Lord I pray that he would get out of the hands of counselors and
    into your hands through your Word.  May he search all scripture in
    regards to leading and husbandry and begin to live your word.  Father,
    may his wife's heart be turned towards her husband and may she learn
    forgiveness.  Father, please build this family for thy glory.  In Jesus
    name, Amen.
    
    Father in Heaven,
    
    I ask that your presence would be known to Pam's family during this
    time of turmoil.  Father I ask that those in Pam's family who do not
    know you as Savior, may find You as their Savior.  I ask for wisdom for
    Pam as she interacts with her relatives and Father, that she may know
    how to comfort her father through all that occurs.  I ask all of this
    in Jesus' name, Amen.
 | 
| 7.533 |  | ICTHUS::YUILLE | Thou God seest me | Tue Jun 07 1994 06:16 | 31 | 
|  | My LORD, I ask your peace for Steve's heart in the stress of tense
relationship, and a home of pain.  Enter in in little ways, LORD, to remind
them of their past companionship, and restore love between them.  Lighten
their hearts in the joy of what You have given, and make their home a place
of comfort, as they know not only peace together, but You in their midst.
Break the bondage, LORD, and restore the joy of Your salvation as something
they can partake of together....  That the home may be built up into a 
place where You are honoured, and their children see You reflected through 
their parents.  And I ask for special, supernatural patience for Steve, as 
he becomes the man of Your choice through this fire, which refines him as  
gold...
Job 23:10 :	"But he knoweth the way that I take: when he hath tried me,
		 I shall come forth as gold."
  
My Father, I ask also that You would minister to Pam's family, reaching into 
the hearts of those who have come through troubled waters in life, to know
the peace of Your salvation in their hearts - the peace that only this can
give, and nothing can take away.  That in particualr, her father and Uncle
Burt would learn to rejoice in the goodness of a God who not only gave them
life on this earth, but bought them eternal forgiveness, and life in heaven.
LORD, many of us will never know them on this earth, but long to see them as 
tokens of Your grace in heaven.
Please grant Pam the right words, and spirit to convey them, to speak 
tender words of healing to their spirits, that they would be awakened to 
Your perfect, complete, overwhelming love, even in times of sorrow and 
sadness, as well as in times of joy and gladness.

able to respond to here.  I just wanted to respond about Bernadette, Julie. 
Asking the LORD for His joy and peace in this early home call, which is a 
disaster in the eyes of the world, but a glorious entry into the LORD's 
presence for the one covered by Jesus' blood.
There is an elder at my church, with a young family (he's only about my
age), who has also been diagnosed as having an untreatable cancer recently.
It's a solemn yet exciting thing to know that the LORD has said "Soon!" to 
you.  His face shines the clearer through everything...

Also Tony, Julian; for the LORD's strength for his wife and yet-to-be-born
baby, and for Isobel and Bill.  But especially that Tony would hear the 
LORD's voice through this, and find Peace for his family...  In fact, would 
it be too much to see this humanly awful event as God's merciful response 
to the prayers of Saturday? - an early warning against the penalty his 
Godless lifestyle would incur....  Aimed to restore them to abundant life, 
instead of existing in rebellious misery?
And for comfort for the family, Karen...

|  | Hello Kathy,
A couple in my church group was in this situation a few months back, and 
went for alternative treatment (with prayer!), and the lady is now 
- amazingly - up and about, and able to take her place at church, though 
the baby isn't born yet.  Hers was back trouble.  They also have a
two-year old. 
Will remember Steve, Jennifer - and David - in prayer.  As well as #2.

What can I say?  Only that the LORD is gracious.  Uncle Burt is in His hands.
Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?  Not just 'right' as in 
'legal', but 'right' in His infinite loving compassion, which bore our 
diseases....

|  | My Father, I bring before You the needs entered here recently :
For those at Steven Alton's site, and elsewhere, who are to lose this
visible means of support, that You would be their provider, not only 
physically, but also in peace of mind, as they approach such changes; to 
see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living.  And to know taht 
peace that passes all understainding, which comes only from the LORD Jesus 
reigning in the heart washed by His blood, that this would be a time of 
turning to You, LORD...
I praise You LORD, for the restoration of health to Greta's sister and 
niece, and for that reminder of all that You give us which we so easily 
take for granted in our daily health and strength...
I ask Your blessing on Jim, on vacation, that he would know refreshment of 
spirit and body, and that Jamie and Shellie would know your hand of healing 
in their hearts and lives, restoring them to eternal life and joy in our 
LORD Jesus, as Your word comes alive to them both...
My LORD, I ask for comfort for those recently bereaved, for Steve Nazzaro
and the family, and for Sandy's in laws, that grief may give way to Your 
peace, and that they would be protected from self condemnation.
Father, I lift Michele before You. I praise You for the safe delivery 
earlier this year, and ask for Your protection over this family as they 
give themselves to establishing a home where You are honoured.  I ask for 
wisdom for the doctors, and Your provision of health and strength according 
to the days You bless them with.
My LORD, thank You for Richard, and the fellowship that we can enjoy, 
thank You for the opportunity for us to meet earlier this year.  I ask for 
Your hand to rest upon his back with healing strength, that You would bring 
to his heart Your answer to this problem, with an awareness of Your great 
love and mercy, and that the pain would melt away in a release of Your
presence upon him...

    or gathered in your name, there you will be.  Father, there are many of
    us gathered in this unlikely place, may we know your presence fully.

Hello everyone.  I'm just in for a few minutes this afternoon to answer some
mail ...
I want to let you know how much Kris, Nick, Joe, and I appreciate your warm
support over the past few days.  Your kindness has certainly helped to make
a horrible situation a little more bearable.  It is certainly gratifying to
know that we have so many good friends.  Andrea would have loved the huge
crowd that was at the wake Monday night - all the new friends she could have 
made!!!  She was a wonderful, precious child and I loved her more than words
can express.
... Thanks once again for your many thoughts and prayers.
Steve
===============================================================================
For those of you who do not live in the Lowell area, the following is
a condensed version of the article that appeared about Andrea Nazzaro
in the Saturday edition of the Lowell Sun. 
"...her father explained how young Andrea cut short her swim in the 
Dracut family's pool Thursday to help her brother work his paper
route. She was an experienced hand, filling in many times for Joey, 13,
delivering papers and collecting money from The Sun's route 29 customers.
As her mother, Kris, chauffeured the children on their rounds, Andrea
spied one house on Loon Hill Road where she always loved to stop.
"What happened is that they have this puppy, and Andrea loved animals,"
her father said. She delivered the paper and knocked on the door to
collect, but no one was home. The dog was penned up, out of reach.
Moments later the customer returned and Andrea seized another chance
to collect and see the puppy.
"She got out of the car and went around the back of the car. She looked
and no traffic was coming," Nazzaro said, repeating accounts from
his wife, son, and police. "As she was going across the street, a car
appeared suddenly and hit her full, right on. She was 4' 3", 65 pounds,
she didn't stand a chance."
Andrea, who would be entering the fourth grade this fall at Campbell
Elementary School, was flown to UMASS Medical Center and diagnosed with
irreversible brain damage. She was taken of life support Friday morning.
The car's driver, Greg Fauvel, 19, of Lowell, told police he didn't
see the child until it was too late to stop. Police concluded that 
Fauvel did not speed and was not at fault.
To Nazzaro, the tradegy's timing seemed preordained. "She wasn't
even going to go, but she loves to collect so much. Kris and Joe
waited for her to dry off and change," he explained. "Of course,
that gave the guy (customer) time to get back to his house, it gave her 
time to walk into the street, it gave (the driver) time to hit her. It 
was unavoidable. It was fate."
Andrea, a straight-A student, loved to swim, play soccer, and ski. She
was a member of the Brownies, loved the theatre, and animals.

|  |     Father, at the same time, we also pray you will bring peace back to
    Greg Fauvel's life.  It is my belief that the experience of hitting a
    young girl must have been a real trauma to him.  May you use this
    experience to draw Greg to you and may your name be glorified.  
    
    Give your peace to all those who requested prayer and bring healing to
    those who need it.  In Jesus name...Amen!

         So sorry to learn of your accident.
         
         Father God, thank you for your preserving hand upon your faithful 
         servant Nancy. Praise be to *YOUR* name that she came to no 
         serious harm. Quicken the healing process, both of her aching 
         body, also the trauma of her mind by cleansing into the background 
         the memory of the incident.
         
         Help her too Father to realise the funds necessary for the 
         repairs needed to her vehicle.

|  |          For Adrien Sawyer, Father I humbly ask that you would draw near to 
         this man and firstly reassure him of the deep, deep love of Jesus 
         for *him*, that you have through the prayers of your servants, 
         your eye upon him. I ask that your will would be done in his 
         life, and that if that should mean a reprieve by limiting the 
         cancer to just one lung, or none at all, then so be it.
         
         
         I also bring Albie Blaze to you Father, and thank you that his 
         life was spared. Bring him swiftly back to health and restore him 
         soon to his children, and comfort each of their hearts.

protection and provision, day by day, according to - not just her need, 
but according to Your bountiful goodness.
I pray also for healing for Adrien Sawyer and for Albie Blaze, in their 
physical distress, and distress of mind.  I ask for an entrance for the
gospel to be actively working in their lives, and in their families, that
Your mercy and victory would be evident to all, for Your glory ...

|  | Thank You LORD, for Your great mercy and love, demonstrated in Adrien !  
May You receive all the glory for his health and strength, and may Your 
name be honoured in the hearts of the physicians also...
My LORD, we bring before You Stephanie and her children, in her distress of
mind and constraint of resource, at this loss and grievious unfaithfulness.
In this time of such need, meet them at every point, that they may know
Your loving arms wrapped around them; Your involvement and direction in
every step of the way.  And my LORD, I ask also that You would be a
constant thorn in the side of the erring husband, that he would know no
peace until he has put things right with You, and with those he has
wounded. 
Thank You for Hazza, LORD, for the time You gave him with us, and the joy
it has been to know him, and Your work within him.  Thank You for Karen,
Joshua and Nathaniel also.  We ask Your hand upon this dear family in
provision of every need, whether material, physical or spiritual.  Grant
them delight continually in each other and in You, our Provider, Creator
and Saviour.  We bring before You especially this complication in Joshua's
health.  Thank You that the condition has been found, but LORD, we look to
You for protection and guidance that it might be swiftly and easily dealt
with; that this child of Your bounty may not suffer distress, but may
continually know the comfort and protection of the home You have placed him
in.  Also, I ask Your hand upon Hazza (and Karen!) at this time of stress,
as the demands of tending the young take their toll on the body and mind.
Grant them serenity, peace and patience through these days, my Father, even
as You so tenderly are patient with us...

|  | My LORD, I lift before You this morning all those who are in emotional 
stress from the pressures and demands of this world; who are hedged in too 
close to lift their eyes and see Your love and grace; Your arms open wide 
to receive them with Your comfort and peace.  I lift Joe before You.  
Thank You for giving Bob the opportunity to intervene when he would throw 
away the gift of life You have given.  Keep Your hand of protection upon 
him, as his eyes are increasingly opened to his worth in Your sight...
My Father, I bring Stephanie before You again, as a new week starts without 
the husband to share the family responsibility, and to be the companion in 
life.  Supply her every need, LORD, and that of the children.  And cause 
the awareness of guilt to turn the hearts of those who have abandoned their 
commitments before You in this way...
I lift up Timothy Ollis before You as well, my LORD that You would put Your 
hand of healing upon this little child, to refresh his spirit and restore 
his body to health, and delight his parents.
My LORD, I ask for Yor provision for Nancy, in terms of transport, that the
floodgates of Your bounty may be opened upon her; that Your door of
provision may be thrown wide; that her heart may be blessed by recognition
of Your intervention in her situation.  I lift before You each of Your
children experiencing difficulty in this area, as the demands of a needy
world, and the demands of a greedy world translate into a material drain,
while the rich blessings of Your love are discounted, and eternity counted 
as nought... Set our eyes upon You, O LORD in such a way that the release 
of material bounty does not hinder our fellowship with You....

    racing through his mind, I pray that you would help him bring every
    thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ. Allow him to sense
    Your presence Lord as never before. I also pray that if it be your will
    to restore this relationship that you would allow Bob to see Your work
    and to help him be patient.Through his tears and heart ache Lord,
    please comfort him, and wrap him in Your loving arms.
    
                                In Jesus's precious name we pray:
                                       Amen

    Bob, since your here in my building, I'd consider it a privilege to
    pray with you in person, if you like.  Mail sent.

| 7.597 | praying | GAVEL::MOSSEY |  | Tue Aug 02 1994 09:56 | 10 | 
|  |     Praying for your car/insurance situation, Nancy.  That the Lord would
    make a way for you and as the doors open, the glory would go to Him.
    (I hope you are physically feeling better, also.)
    
    Lifting Bob's heartache up to the Lord, that He would uphold you during
    this trying time and give you strength and peace.

    Lord guide Nancy through her situation with the accident and now her
    financial situation... Be with Bob as he works through his pain. Show
    him that it is through you that we find our strength. Be with us all as
    we move to your grace.. AMEN

| 7.599 | for Nancy and Bob | LEDS::FIESTER |  | Wed Aug 03 1994 13:55 | 16 | 
|  |     Yes, still praying for you, Nancy.  For peace to reign in your heart,
    for the practical needs of car and insurance to be met.  I'll write you
    off-line re: the insurance agent....me thinks he would benefit from
    prayer, as well.
    
    And Lord, please comfort Bob as he sees a very important relationship
    fall away.  Fill up those torturous, vulnerable places with Your
    comfort and love.  Remind him that he is precious, not based on any
    relationship here in the natural, but because You love him.  Hold him
    close, Lord, and let him find solace in You.  Let Your Word bring
    relief and healing...that there will be joy in the 'morning' however
    You choose to bring it.
    
    In Him,

|  | My LORD, you know how our brother Rob has followed You faithfully in leading
out from his home and relatives, with his family to Dresden.  How their desire
is to serve You alone wherever You take them, and how this world's goods have
taken a back seat to Your call. 
I bring their housing plight before You, and ask that they be vindicated in
the home where You have placed them.  That You would call the bluff of the
dishonest vendor, who should provide the residence he undertook to sell; that 
they might receive good support and advice from their lawyer, and that the 
vendor would be restrained from any vindictive action.
But most of all, my Father, I ask that Your peace and assurance would rest in
Rob & Dana's hearts throughout this situation; that they would know a deep
assurance that You are in full control, and will not permit the enemy to touch
them; that You have built Your hedge around them, which nothing can penetrate
without Your permission, and that You have placed them in the centre of Your
will. 
 							Amen
My LORD, I thanks and praise You for the good report on Michele!  I ask now 
that the true cause would be discerned, and that she would be restored to 
full health and strength according to Your great love.
I bring Donna before You with the need for foot surgery, that You would be 
with her as 17th approaches, and thaht Your hand would cover the surgeon's...
And again I commit Nancy's financial needs into Your hands, that the requests 
would be regarded favorably, and that You would overrule in all things...
 							In Jesus' Name

|  |     Father in Heaven,
    
    I ask that you would be with those mentioned in Sylvain's prayer
    request.  So many tragedies in such a short timeframe.  Father we do
    not know the root problem here, but Lord you know everything.  I ask
    Father that before more tragedy comes that the root be revealed and
    dealt with.  I ask this in your Son's name, Amen.

|  |     Father,
    
    I lift Bob Shallow before you now.  I pray that Bob might know and
    understand the depths of Your love for him.  I pray that Bob might know 
    Your Truth and that He would be set free from the bondage of depression.  I
    pray that Bob would know Your Life abundant within him.  Father,
    sometimes it seems so hard to see with Your eyes.  I pray that you would 
    give Bob Your eyes of faith; that he would see that he has a future and
    a hope in Christ.  I pray that you would give Bob some brothers &
    sisters in the faith to love on him during this tough time.

|  |       O Lord Almighty, please help Bob to find comfort as he is hurting
      from a broken relationship.  Help him, Lord, to grieve properly for
      this loss, but to be able to begin the restoration process, to 
      make new plans, to see You in His life, to find joy in other areas.
      I pray that his friends and acquaintances will be sensitive to his
      needs, and will be a source of comfort, and will help alleviate any 
      lonliness he might have.  Please give Bob true hope for the future.
      Amen.

| 7.610 |  | JULIET::MORALES_NA | Sweet Spirit's Gentle Breeze | Tue Aug 09 1994 16:40 | 8 | 
|  |     Dear Heavenly Father,
    
    I also pray for Bob during this time of grief.  Father I pray that
    you'd  have Bob look within himself to find You hiding there ready to
    fulfill all his needs.  Father, I ask that you'd guide someone to Bob
    to counsel him during this crisis.  Lord, quickly and soon.  You know I
    care for Bob and value him as a friend.  I ask that you would let him
    see this and help me to make it real to him.  In Jesus name, Amen.
 | 
| 7.611 | Touch my brother | SIERAS::MCCLUSKY |  | Wed Aug 10 1994 18:36 | 13 | 
|  |     Father God,
    
    You touched me and comforted me after you took my wife of twenty-one
    years home to be with You.  It was hard for me and I was groping for
    something.  I was not a good son and I thought I hated you for taking
    my precious Happy.  But, You put your hand on my shoulder and I knew
    that You were with us.  If it be Your will, do a similar thing for Bob.
    Help him to see that there is nothing wrong with him in Your eyes, that
    he doesn't need to pray harder or be more spiritual or do the right
    things, just let go and let You.  I lift our brother up to you in
    prayer.
    
    Amen.

|  | I've been going through the last couple of weeks prayer requests - partly 
because I wanted to check more thoroughly what'd missed when I was on 
vacation last week.  I'm just in now to emphasise my love and prayers for 
you all...
Donna, today was the foot surgery....!  Asking for the LORD's arms around you 
in recovery now...
And Rob - remembering you with the house financing complications.  
Nancy - rejoicing with you, sis, over the remarkable answers you have been
receiving financially so far...  Also remembering baby Kaitlin Nicole, the
potential thyroid problem, and the results of retesting...  And for the
practical and other needs of the deserted wife... 
With you, Sylvain, in the family distress and bereavement, and asking the
LORD to reach His merciful hand in to bring healing of heart and spirit
there, with a revelation of Himself and His love... 
Bob (G), it's a privilege to join with you in prayer for the future of that 
work with the lads in the cub pack...  And also for your job possibility.
Any news on Mike's interview?
Bob (S) - asking that the LORD minister out of His awesome love to your 
heart also, melting away the shadow and mists with which the enemy conceals
His glory from you...  That you know the release, in knowing 'self' is nothing
- but He is ALL, and you are validated because He loves you overwhelmiongly. 
Enough to die, so that you can walk with Him for eternity.  And that _that_
realization would liberate you to enjoy an intimacy of walk with Him
throughout this life with which He has entrusted you...  Bob, read about Him 
and speak about Him even when it is difficult.  Assert your faith when it is 
out of sight, and the enemy has to vacate eventually.  
When we're in it, the black void is tangibly eternal, excluding even Him, but
that impossible stepping out of it bursts a bubble, and shows it as something
small and dwindling, into the mere memory of an impossible for man, which our
miracle-working God is teaching us to defeat.  He *is* there, and He *does*
care, infinitely, to trust you there, Bob.  Hugs to you, bro...
Neil, remembering Keith in the wreckage of his lifestyle, that the LORD would 
awaken him to the destination of such a path before it is too late...
Fonz .... for Steve Garcia, in his surgery today...
Leslie T - Remembering you before the LORD in the heartaches you carry...
 - are you still able to use the singing the LORD gave?
				In Jesus' love, for each of you...

    Thanks so much for posting that summary of the most current prayer
    requests.  It helped me to remember each of them today as well.
    
    Father, I pray that you would be present and active in each of the
    requests in this conference.  Lord, you know each and every detail of
    the situations and love intimately every individual who has requested
    prayer.  May Your love and comfort be made manifest through Your

 Heavenly Father, I lift my brother, Bob before you right now, and ask
 your hand of comfort to touch him and strengthen him.  Lord, we know 
 all things work for the good of those who love you, and sometimes we
 just don't understand it given our nature.  Lord, comfort Bob in the
 knowledge that you are in control, and you do have plans for Bob and
 his family..
 In Jesus name
 Amen

|  |     Heavenly Father, it is with a heavy heart I come to you for my brother,
    Bob.  Lord, I know that You have his best in mind and I pray that he
    will find comfort in knowing how precious he is to you.  Father, you
    tell us that you have every hair on our head numbered, that you knew us
    before we were formed in our mothers, Father wrap your arms of
    protection around Bob, and give him patience to wait on you.  Lord, I'm
    reminded that as we wait, you lift us up as eagles.  I am reminded
    Father, that you have only our best in mind as we go through trials,
    your promise is to provide escape and Lord may Bob seek your face as he
    finds direction.  Father, lastly, I pray for his family.  May they too
    be comforted and confident in you.  In Jesus' name, Amen.

|  |     Father,
    
    I pray for Bob that he might know your comfort.  I pray that he might have
    a very keen awareness of Your love for him and his family during this tough
    time.  Father, help Bob to walk in your truth and love and not in fear.
    
    I pray that you would meet Bob and his family's every financial,
    emotional, physical, mental, and spiritual need.

|  |     Our Father,
    
    I ask that you would be with the dear child of yours who is about to
    undergo surgery.  Father, let her remember that this body will only be
    here temporarily and that no matter how it deteriorates, one day a new
    one, glorified, will be hers.  Lord, comfort her heart, give her the
    hope of her salvation fresh and anew.  In Jesus' name, Amen.

|  |     I wanted to let you all know that Carol's surgery went well and quick
    yesterday.  The doctor told Jim, her husband, that the tumor appeared
    to be the more common "fatty growth" that occurs after a break and that
    it was a yellowish color rather than the usual grayish color of
    cancerous growths.  They did send the mass off for analysis, just in
    case.
    Thanks for your prayers.

| 7.622 | For Donna Huddleston | PEKING::ELFORDP | Double Bassists have more pluck | Wed Aug 24 1994 03:56 | 18 | 
|  |          Father God,
         
         As I enter this prayer, it is 08.55 in the UK and the middle of 
         the night in Donna's home. 
         
         May your protection be upon her right now, surround her with your 
         precious Holy Spirit, and undergird her with your powerful 
         strength, as she now sleeps. In the wonderful and victorious name 
         of the Lord Jesus Christ, dispatch any forces of evil which would 
         attempt to come near. May she awake with a wonderful feeling and 
         sense of your loving presence, filling her mind with precious 
         nuggets from your Word. May Satan know that Donna has both the 
         protection from your very throne of grace, through the shed blood 
         of Jesus, and the fellowship of her brothers and sisters.
         
         Praise God.

|  | Prayers raised for the last few entries... 
Tom, for youngsters exposed to that which is passed off as knowledge, in
todays educational establishments.  Exposed to man's fallen opinion instead
of God's facts.  Exposed to all sorts of godless inputs from many who think 
that 'God' is but an oath.  But also exposed to some weak individuals in 
whom dwells the strength of that same God they deny.  Also for many 
university students returning to - or starting - their courses in the next 
couple of weeks, and suddenly exposed to all the temptations of life 
without the caring parental presence as a balance or guide...
� � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � �
My Father, You see this mass of humanity which the enemy seeks to delude.  
But You also see Your own, and can not only protect them; You can also use 
them for Your glory in the lives of many not yet awakened to You....  I ask 
that You would give a special protection, and moral and spiritual strength 
and awareness to those entering into new environments of study in the next 
weeks...
My LORD, I bring to You the gestures towards peace that have been raised in 
the last few days, over Ireland; that You would restrain evil, and move by 
Your Spirit to bring a new awareness of You and hunger for You in the 
hearts of men previously bent on destruction, and using Your Name for 
political ends....
I pray for Karen's in-laws, that their hearts would be stirred by Your 
roghteousness and Your goodness to mankind, and to them in particular. That 
You would give karen the vision for what You are doing in them, and a great
appetite to bring them before You constantly, as Your work is done in their 
lives...
For Steve, LORD, I ask for guidance into the employment of Your choice for 
him.  Into the liberty of what You have created him to do.  LORD, I'm 
tempted to ask You to ignore his request for patience, because the way You 
teach us patience is by making us use it; by waiting and waiting....  But 
I'm so thankful that You are supreme; You don't just answer our words; You 
answer our heart cry; our needs, as is best for our eternity, and not just 
for our now.  My Father, put Your arms around Steve that he may know that 
whatever happens, You are beside him; You are leading him, that his life is 
totally and completely in Your hands, and thaht You will never let him go, 
physically / materially or spiritually.
Holy One, our creator, You know Sean Henderson.  To many of us he is just a 
name; the physical son of our brother Jim.  I ask that You move in his life 
visibly, to bring Your peace and life abundant; to turn around his centre 
to know the joy and fulfillment of Your control and love, flowing through 
him...
And LORD, I'd echo James' prompt in 6.819, for those of us who serve here
as moderators, that You would grant us wisdom continually, in accordance
with Your Word in James 1:5, a unity in fellowship with all Your children
who share here, and skill and understanding in use of our time...

faithfulness and his love.  You know his pain and very real anticipation of

light of Your presence; that he would be aware of You walking beside him in
these days when he feels he's saying 'goodbye' to all that has been his
physical life, and that the reality of glory would bring an intense 
pleasure to his heart, knowing that the reward is real, and that the 
greatest part of it is You!  
Grant that he may also be aware of the love of dear friends - brothers and
sisters in the LORD, and draw great comfort from their fellowship,
rejoicing together in all that You have done and are continuing to do... 
Until we meet You face to face...
							In Jesus' love

 Heavenly Father, I bring your faithful servant Ed before you today.  Lord,
 comfort him in the knowledge that you are in control..may your hand of love
 and comfort touch him and reassure him.  Be with those who are tending to his
 physical and spiritual needs and may this ordeal bring more souls to the know-
 ledge of your love and grace,

|  | Our Father in Heaven, I thank you for your servant Ed and for his witness 
and faithfulness.  I pray that in your gracious love you would shower your 
blessings upon Ed, lifting him up, removing all pain and sorrow, perfecting 
his hope, and granting him the constant knowledge of your presence with him 
and your loving hand upon him.  Give to him that peace and hope which only 
you can give.
For the sake of your precious Son, our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ.
Amen.

|  |          Nancy - For Ed
         
         Thank you Father that you have inspired so many to raise their 
         voices to you in earnest supplication for this dear man. I want to 
         praise you that you have him in your sight every second of the 
         day, and your heart is filled with compassion for him. If it is 
         your will that he should be released from his earthly body, then 
         give Ed such an overwhelming expectation of your Loving Presence, 
         and a tremendous reassurance in his mind that, as Jesus reminded 
         us in His great Sermon on the Mount, just as you care for the 
         little birds, you will take even greater and more significant care 
         of him.

         I want to lift this man to you this morning, as now he sleeps. 
         Lord God, Maker, Creator and Ruler of Heaven and Earth - we plead 
         for this man's recovery and restoration to health, to his family 
         and to his work for your service.

|  |     Joe, I am praying for the person you mention who is struggling
    after the loss of his employement with Digital.  Its a hard,
    hard thing.  Impossible to fully understand what it does to a
    person and a family without first-hand experience, and even
    with first-hand experience its very difficult to share it with
    another.  If this person is a believer, I hope that they will
    draw strength from remembering all the ways God has been with 
    them in the past, realizing that God is ever faithful and will
    not abandon them, no matter how things may appear.  Habbakkuk (sp?)
    speaks a great deal to this issue.

| 7.643 | For Andrew re Peter Morgan | PEKING::ELFORDP | Double Bassists have more pluck | Mon Sep 19 1994 05:49 | 23 | 
|  |          Father God, I uplift the situation Andrew has brought to us this 
         morning concerning the calling home of Peter Morgan.
         
         Whilst we cannot begin to understand why this has been allowed to 
         happen, we have to trust in your Sovereign will and Divine 
         purposes. 
         
         In so doing we ask, along with many others of our Heavenly Family, 
         that you would wonderfully undergird his widow Jane, his little 
         daughter Ceridwen, his father and mother Selwyn and Jan, and his 
         other brothers and sisters, also the other members of their 
         respective families who all comprise a very closely knit famaily 
         unit.
         
         We ask that you will bring much goodness out of this humanly 
         tragic situation.
         
         We also ask that you would bring comfort to our brother Andrew as 
         he feels the numbness of the shock, and we would ask that you 
         would meet each one of the congregations' feelings, with the 
         Shalom Peace, which transcends all understanding.

|  | Lord, I pray that you lift up Sean and wrap him in Your arms.  I pray that
you assure him that he is of infinite value in your eyes, that you - his
creator and the creator of all that is - love him so much that you willingly
died for him.  That against your infinite valuing of him, *NO* devaluing of
him can stand.  That no matter what happens in this world, whether he is even
rejected by all, that YOUR love defines him as precious.
Lord I also pray for Jim and for Sean's mother, and for the heartache of a
parent.  I ask that you guide them as they seek to minister to their son, and
that you wash them clean from any feelings of guilt that they have
contributed to their son's condition.  Enable them to be your ambassadors to
Sean here on earth.
In Jesus' precious name and through His infinite love

  Remembering Ed Guinan from time to time.  
  Do you know how the dear man has been recently?
  - And is the teaching opening up?
  Also for your 'silent' request of 6.829, that the LORD would enter in 
  mercifully to reveal His loving Self 
Your youth pastor, after his accident, and Shelley, Mike?
Bob S - praise the LORD for that broadcast ministry of power, and the door 
opened for Pastor Bernal.  Any feedback as yet?
Joe, remembering your TSFO'd colleague, and the stress he and his are going 
through, in the marriage etc, that the LORD would sustain, guide and 
provide...
Karen, bearing Helen up before the LORD, that He would be her strength and 
assurance for the day by day, as well as for the longer term future.
Bob G - for your Ralph, and his well being and comfort in the family God 
has given to care for him. [ not the first dog to be mentioned in these 
prayers, I assure you! ]
Jim, for Sean...  That the words of life would bring life and peace to his 
heart; the confidence of a past that is in the hands of God....
    ******************************************************************
And thanks again for the prayers for Pete's family.  I found more details 
this lunchtime.  Pete and his brother Andrew hada  younger climber roped 
between them.  Pete had about reached the top when the younger climber 
began to swing.  As Pete moved to one side to counteract this, his strap 
broke, letting him fall.
That afternoon, Jane had been going over some of their lessons from the 
Bible college - some preparation on the sovereignty of God, so was 
prepared in spirit.  Through such a blow the family are bearing up, thanks 
to the LORD, and His use of the many prayers going up.

 Thanks, Andrew...Sean told me last night he may call my pastor today..I
 told the pastor who told me if he didn't hear from Sean today that he would
 call him...
 One thing Sean needs right now is a vehicle.  He's stuck in a  loop where
 he can't get a job as his car doesn't work, and he can't fix the car because
 he doesn't have the money.  I'm trying to work out the finances right now
 so I can help him get his car on the road.

you, and I pray that this family would trust in that promise.

whether his need is physical or emotional, that You would be very really

    I lift to you our brother Ed Guinan in his most desperate hour of
    earthly need as lies in the Intensive Care Unit. Thank you that he was
    able to communicate enough to enlist the prayers of his fellow
    believers.
    
    Envelop him with the most wondwrful and deep sensation of your love and
    care for him as he lies there, unable to move his physical body. May he
    be acutely aware that even now you are preparing for his ultimate
    arrival in the home that you have prepared especially for him. Reassure
    him and protect his mind from any final assault that the enemy may try
    to inflict upon him.
    
    Comfort our dear sister Nancy during this time too and give her once
    again the inner strength which comes only from the Spirit of Christ
    himself.

|  |     Father in Heaven,
    
    These days are your days though it seems you are far from them.  In
    this time, Lord, your presence is ever needed, but Father you can only
    be present through those who believe in you and have your Spirit
    indwelling.  Lord,  let Christians see the need for revival, repentance
    and separation from the world.  Without the Christian's light and salt
    being penetrated into this life, Your presence is hard to find.  Lord,
    I pray for this family, that you would comfort them and Lord may this
    boy be punished and not slapped on the hand for this deed.  Father we
    need accountability back in our court systems, I ask that you would
    bring justice to this situation.  In Jesus Name, Amen!

|  | My Father, please put Your arms around Nancy's boss and her family, that 
they may find the true Father and joy of their lives.  The devastation of a 
progressive cancer takes all that they have, when they don't know You and 
the wonder of salvation.  But when we have You, all these things are 
secondary, because You are preparing us for the wonder of eternity in Your 
presence, that nothing can take detract from or tarnish in any way...
I ask, my Father, that You would reveal Yourself to them; that seeing You
in others, recognising that eternity which You have placed in the heart of
all mankind, they would be awakened to that joy and peace which nothing can
take away.  That in its light, even this dread illness would fade in 
importance, and that with You in authority, even that illness would flee...
						In Jesus' precious Name...

| 7.697 | for Nancy's boss | PEKING::ELFORDP | Double Bassists have more pluck | Tue Nov 01 1994 10:28 | 12 | 
|  |     Lord,
    
    Reveal yourself to Nancy's boss and her family in such a way, through
    whatever and whomsoever you choose, that their eyes are drawn
    irresistably towards the fount of true life, that they may realise that
    your love for them is no less intense even in the greatest struggles
    and difficulties that they may yet have to face.
    
    Guard then from the subtleties of Satan who would suggest that you are
    to blame for allowing this to come upon them.

     it will motivate them to seek You, for when people seek, You make Yourself
     and Your redemption known to them.  Lord I pray that the cancer would
     be successfully fought, that she will have health and long life to raise
     up her children, to be a partner with her husband, and to serve You
     all the days of her life.  Lord, You are rich in compassion, have mercy
     on this family.

|  |     Oh Father, lord of all mercies and deep compassion for your loved ones,
    I bring Hugh, Sue and their two little children to the throne of grace
    this morning.
    
    I ask that you would help each of them to know your unique nearness and
    comforting and enveloping arms around them. I pray that the healing
    process would be quickened, that Hugh's condition would be improved to
    enable the necessary surgery. Bring to Sue an inner hitherto unknown
    strength and peace of mind -  a total abandonment of her inner self
    into your loving care. Bring healing too to the children, both to their
    little bodies, but more importantly to their minds and memories.
    
    Amen

that You are the one to give glorious meaning to our lives - to our

enter by the One Who said: "I am the way, the truth and the life, no man
comes to the Father but by Me..."  Ah! LORD, delight her with your love, 
pour out Your love upon her in an awareness of all that You have done for 
her; that You love her enough to die for her - and that was enough to save 
her....

    and father, and grant those prayers.

You for Your upholding last Wednesday, as he publicly recounted Your
goodness to him.  I thank You for the many ways you blessed others through
him.  I thank You that at the last, you preserved him from a prolonged
extreme suffering, but opened the door of heaven to welcome him in to his
reward.  My LORD, I look forward to meeting Ed too, with all the precious
saints, when I come face to face with the wonder and splendour of Your
glory.  That is the beginning; the exciting fulfillment of all You have 
planned for us...
My Father, I also ask Your blessed comfort for those who mourn at Ed's 
passing.  Whose hearts will ache with longing to hear his voice, feel 
the touch of his hand; know the wisdom You spoke through his experience.  
May they know You filling that emptiness in their hearts, and giving them 
that fulfilling ministry to others, for You.

    have loved and cared for Ed and that you continue the work
    he has done for You through them.  I pray the the love that Ed

    Also, Micheles numbers still continue to go up.  Good news is she
    doesn't have sirrocis.  Unfortunately, we still don't know the problem.
    She will be going to have a procedure done on December 27th.  It could
    be inpatient but it was a choice between this or a biopsy.  This would
    prove to be more thorough and conclusive.  This should help determine
    what the problem is.

| 7.762 | Prayers for our situations. | TOKNOW::METCALFE | Eschew Obfuscatory Monikers | Thu Dec 29 1994 10:01 | 49 | 
|  | Pam, 
  My extended family is also in crisis at the moment.  I wanted to comment
on "God being in control," as Bob put it.  Recently, it felt as if 
everything was out of control, and for me, it was true enough because
I had very little control over events that had to do with me.  Being
out of personal control, I had only a few thoughts to carry me through:
1) God is Good
2) God is personally interested in my situation
3) Jesus NEVER fails.
It isn't easy to always believe these things deep down when circumstances
around us look grim.  My extended family crisis may not turn out the way
we all believe it should.  To this we recall Hannaniah, Mishael, and Azariah,
better known as Shadrach, Meshach and Abednigo.  They were to be cast in the
furnace, heated to seven times normal for their faith.  This was their 
declaration, which is especially importantant when you consider the second
of the two verses from Daniel 3:
 17 If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning
    fiery furnace, and he will deliver us out of thine hand, O king.
 18 But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy
    gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up.
"But if not..."  Sometimes, although God is in control he does not deliver
us out of extremely trying circumstances.  11 of the twelve apostles were 
martyred.  And bad things happen because of selfishness and pride.  And it
may go poorly in my extended family, although we are praying diligently for
the situation.  But if God does not intervene, He is indeed still in 
control and can see the end from the beginning.  One can't bargain with
God - He has everything, including you and me, already.
And another thing (while I'm rolling): God is not worried about the outcome,
even though He is personally intereested in our situations.  Jesus heard 
that Lazarus was sick to the point of death but waited until Lazarus was
dead for four days!  And yet when he came to where His friends were grieving,
He grieved with them!  ("Jesus wept.")  Of course, we know that this was to
be for God's glory.  Jesus may sometimes seem slow, but He is *never* late.
In our circumstances, we realize that we are not good: God is.
We realize that we can become so focused on our situation that we find
it hard to believe that God cares: He does.  And we realize that people
fail, and that we fail: but Jesus never fails.  And that's something
we can hold fast to when all around us shrieks of crisis.  "But if not,
let this be notice served to you, O king, that although my faith in God
has not erased my anxieties, we've come to know God well enough to not
allow out anxieties erase our faith in God."

|  |     Mark,
    
    Thank you for that.  If you don't mind, I would like to 
    print it out as encouragement for my Sis-in-law.  It is 
    when situations arise that we have no control over, yet may
    change our lives forever, that we need to keep our fait and
    "not allow our anxieties to erase" it.
    
    Thank you, we will hold you and your family in prayer also.

| 7.764 |  | PAULKM::WEISS | Trade freedom for His security-GAIN both | Thu Dec 29 1994 10:57 | 38 | 
|  | It's so true, Mark.  When we are in trying situations, well-meaning christian
brothers and sisters can often tell us "The Lord is in control, it will all
work out for the best," meaning that if we just trust God, He will fix
everything the way that we want it to be fixed.
It just ain't so.
Because He gave us free will, not everything God desires comes to pass.  He
desires that every one of us will be with Him for eternity, but He's not
willing to force us.  God's not willing to fix things the way that *HE* wants
them fixed, if it means forcing us; there's no reason for us to expect God to
fix things the way *WE* want either.  "But if not..." is an essential of
faith.
Trusting God means just that - trusting Him *REGARDLESS* of how things work
out, trusting Him knowing that things might not work out.  That God is there,
God is faithful, whether our life goes as we would desire or not.  If we put
our faith in God in His creating happy circumstances for us, our faith is, to
put it bluntly, doomed.  For our lives will not be a series of happy
circumstances, and our lives may contain some hurts and losses that do not go
away.  God will spend eternity with some number of his beloved creations
having declined to be there with him, and we may likewise have some lasting
hurts.  Yet God is faithful nonetheless.  He may not take away all our hurts,
but he will enable us to bear them.
In recent months, a verse that I have clung to is Habakkuk 3:17-19:
	Though the fig tree does not bud
	   and there are no grapes on the vines,
	though the olive crop fails
	   and the fields produce no food,
	thought there are no sheep in the pen
	   and no cattle in the stalls,
	yet I will rejoice in the Lord,
	   I will be joyful in God my Savior.
	The Sovereign Lord is my strength;
	  he makes my feet like the feet of a deer,
	  he enables me to go on the heights.

| 7.765 | Use what you're led to use, Pam. | TOKNOW::METCALFE | Eschew Obfuscatory Monikers | Thu Dec 29 1994 11:12 | 40 | 
|  | I can only guess some of the reasons for my extended family crisis. 
But at the root of it is self.  Dissatisfaction with present circumstances
and personal attention attracting one away from those present 
circumstances instead of fixing it the way it was to be intended.
The lie is that "if I can only endure things for a little while, 
they'll get better, but I cannot endure things the way they are now.
It has gone too far."  It is a lie, but a powerful one because they
have let things become so much of a mess that we think it is easier 
to quit and start new.  I've seen it happen before, even in my own extended
family.  Coming around to hit us again doesn't ease the pain or tragedy
of it.
Still, there is prayer that the lie will be seen for what it is....
and the truth for what it is: it is diffucult to heal a long-standing
mess and takes hard work, but the truth is that it pays off in the end
and is worth the effort.  (That's difficult to see from where we are.)
Someone recently told me of crusing in a bar many years ago before he
became a Christian.  When he walked in, none of the women attracted him...
but after a few drinks, they did look attractive.  That's the interesting
part about the lie: it is true that some things look attractive while
we are intoxicated - that is the true picture is distorted, by clouded
emotions (instead of alcoholo or drugs).  This gives us insight into
the verse that says the pleasures of sin are for a time.  It is true
that sin is more pleasurable... while we are intoxicated, but we have
all lived long enough to know we always "come to ourselves" as the
prodigal son did, and realize what fools we were.
I have been praying for "open eyes" (a clear understanding of the decisions
this family member seems to be making) and that the Holy Spirit will not
leave this person unchecked until peace is found.  I pray that same for
your family member, to realize the gravity of decisions and choose to
do what is right, even if it is harder and takes greater character than
they think they can muster; God will honor the willingness to do the 
right thing and must that great character within - He creates it, after all.
And I have also prayed that God's foe would be frustrated to glorify God's
name.  May He completely frustrate the Tempter of his prize and restore
these people to One Flesh.

Me, too. But is only mine by adoption.  I heard it in a sermon on
Lazarus's death and resurrection.  Jesus declared "*I* am the
resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he 
were dead, yet shall he live:"  The same can be said of other 
relationships, not just physical separation.  Jesus breathes 
life.
A separate lesson about Lazarus taught me to really appreciate
the shortest verse in tbe Bible: "Jesus wept."  He shares our
grief, even though He knows how things are going to turn out.
He hurts when we hurt and He DOES care.

| 7.769 | Habakkuk as a source of comfort and hope | KAHALA::JOHNSON_L | Leslie Ann Johnson | Fri Dec 30 1994 11:39 | 85 | 
|  |         There are quite a few things in the Bible that give me hope
        when I feel that God is silent or slow in answering prayer,
        or the answers to do not seem to map to what I have been 
        crying to God in prayer about.  
        Like many families, we have been hit by layoffs and my husband 
        has been out of work for 6 months now, so I have really had to 
        turn to those things that help me see that though life might not 
        go the way I would like it too, God is indeed there and active 
        in the world in a loving, caring way.  One of things that is a 
        source of strength for me is to read through the Psalms.  Another 
        is phrases from some of the songs we sing in the synagogue such 
        as  "Thou O Lord art a shield for me, my glory and the lifter of 
        my head" and "He is my defense and I will not be moved".
        But one of my strongest comforts is the book of Habakkuk.  Habakkuk
        the prophet accuses God of ignoring injustice and beseeches God to
        do something about it very soon:
        "How long O lord, must I call for help, but you do not listen?
        Or cry out to you, "Violence!", but you do not save?
        Why do you make me look at injustice, why do you tolerate wrong?"
        (Habakkuk 1:2-3, NIV)
        God answers by giving Habakkuk an oracle (divine prophecy) in which
        God says to Habakkuk, watch, here is what I will do and you will be
        in absolute surprise and amazement because it is not what you would
        expect.  Then He shows the prophet how He will use the Babylonians,
        a ruthless and feared people, to inflict punishment for the injustices
        that are being done.
        Habakkuk is both amazed and dismayed.  Now he accuses God of being
        unfair - how can You answer with the victory of a people that are even
        more violent, more unjust that the violence and injustice I was 
        complaining about?
        This time God tells Habakkuk to write down what he reveals to him,
        and to announce to the people by having heralds carry it throughout
        the land (to give them hope & comfort), because what God will reveal 
        is something they will have to wait for, but it will come as God 
        promises at the appropriate time and not a moment too late:
        "For the revelation awaits an an appointed time; it speaks of the end 
        and will not be proved false.  Though it linger, wait for it; it will
        certainly come and will not delay."                (Habbakuk 2:3, NIV)
        Then God promises that there will come a time of judgement, when the 
        people and nations who worship false gods, and who build up for 
        themselves wealth and riches by plunder and harming others will find 
        that all they have done is nothing but worthless ashes:
        "Woe to him who builds a city with bloodshed and establishes a town
        by crime!  Has not the Lord Almighty determined that the people's
        labor is only fuel for the fire, that the nations exhaust themselves
        for nothing?  For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the 
        glory of the Lord, as the waters covers the sea."
        (Habakkuk 2:12-14, NIV)
        After God finishes telling Habakkuk what will happen as the Lord
        makes Himself known and judges injustice, Habakkuk responds with a 
        wonderful prayer of faith in which he affirms that though he see 
        things that make him trembled and fear, he will wait patiently for 
        the Lord to do as He has promised; though things do not look very 
        good in the present circumstance, he has a sure faith that God will 
        be his salvation and that he can go on living victoriously in God
        in the face of adversity:
        "Though the fig tree does not bud and there are no grapes on the vines,
        though the olive crop fails and the fields produce no food, though 
        there are no sheep in the pen and no cattle in the stalls, yet I will
        rejoice in the Lord, I will be joyful in God my savior.  The
        Sovereign Lord is my strength; he makes my feet like the feet of a
        deer, he enables me to go on the heights."     (Habakkuk 3:17-19, NIV)
     
        Like Habakkuk, I have seen God work in my life and the lives of others
        in wonderful, exciting, and sometimes frightening ways.  Like Habakkuk,
        my family has been going through a time when God seems to have left
        us to flounder on our own, when He seems to be ignoring our plight as 
        we watch our resources diminishing every month.  But like Habakkuk
        I continue to find that God is my strength, and that He enables me
        to reach for spiritual strength and courage, and joy in living every
        day.  I can look back at what God has done, I know the promises God
        has given, and together these give me assurance for the future.

|  | My Father, I thank You for the dear family You have given to us all - each 
other, knowing Your love working through and in us each one as we learn to
be like You, our Father....  I lift before You those who are in any special
need just now, in this amazing fellowship You have given to us; before You,
Who know the heart, and the path on which You are leading each of us,
towards Yourself.  I lift Pam before You that she would know Your presence,
comfort, peace and relief in her situation day by day, resolving the
problems and opening new areas of Your blessing to her heart, and to her
family's.  Thank You for Karen's testimony of Your goodness and ministering
in a place of need...  Truly, O LORD, You are the God of miracles, and You
alone can unlock the prisons and loose the prisonners, as You have
delivered us from satan's grasp - Hallelujah! 
My LORD, I pray for those who have been so wounded by the Brookline
shooting.  As this fades in the mind of people not directly involved, many
close to it will have great distress and anger living with them.  My LORD,
my heart is so grieved that such a wicked deed is done ostensibly in Your
Name, under the delusion of ignorance and distress.  My LORD, vindicate
Your Name in the eyes of the blind, that they be not further driven into
darkness, but wooed into the glorious light of Your presence; the
revelation of the gospel of Your love!  Touch the wounded hearts with Your
healing, and show them Your blood shed for their sins; Your arms 
outstretched to embrace them; their unrighteousness resting upon You at 
Calvary,  and know true peace...
I thank You LORD that at last the cause of Michele's illness has been 
found!  My Father, I ask that You would now reveal the treatment and cure, 
that Your hand would be upon the whole family each day, as tests are done 
and the remedy sought, that the answer of peace would come from Your wisdom 
and knowledge.  I ask again, LORD, for Your special blessing upon this dear 
famly

    and the joy we share

    Father in Heaven,
    
    I come to you today first praising your holy name.  Thank you father
    for calvary.  Thank you father for your *love*, your pure *love* that
    covers all my sins; past, present and future. Father forgive me where I
    have failed you or harmed others.  
    
    Lord I echo Andrew's prayer and am in complete agreement.  Father, be
    with Michelle at this time.  Lord, help the doctors to help her to know
    what is happening in her body.  Lord when I hear of such things I am
    reminded of when Paul says that he wars within himself.  Lord, as you
    are the conqueror of sin you are also the healer of infirmities. 
    Father, heal Michelle and restore her health, if it be your will.
    
    Father, I think now of Ed's family.  His mother, father and siblings. 
    Lord be with them today, bring comfort today.  Lord, as they struggle
    with the whys, may there be only one set of footprints in the sand.  
    
    And Lord, I ask for my boss and her family.  Lord, her father's cancer
    is progressing as she goes in each day for radiation to heal her own. 
    Give her peace of mind beyond comprehension that you are with her each
    step of the way.  Lord, I ask that you'd also provide a job for her
    husband.  I know that you already have it there for him and in your
    time the provision will be made.  
    
    Thanking you for my children now, Lord.  For their unique and wonderful
    spirits that give me cause to rise each day and feel blessed.  May you
    be with them, protect them, and guide them today and every day.
    
    I ask all of this in Jesus' name, Amen.

|  | Dear Father,
I bring before You my brother Kym, that he would know Your peace and joy 
in his heart as he seeks Your will for his life with Lani; that You would 
make the way ahead clear to them both, whether it is together or apart.  
That You would be their comfort and strength, individually and together, as 
they seek not their will, but Yours.
Father, I ask particularly that Kym may know the peace of leaving this 
decision in Your hands, even though his own natural response is stressful 
and urgent, and that as he waits, You would reach deeply into him to bring 
a comfort and strength which will build him up for Your glory.
Gracious LORD God, You have created us to naturally desire and enjoy the
union of marriage, which brings the pain of exposing our inner failings
through each other, as well as the joys of close companionship.  As Kym and
Lani consider this significant step, and its implications in both ways,
help them to know whether You would teach them through each other for life,
as well as giving them more readily recognised blessings together... 
							In Jesus' love

|  | My Father, I thank You for Your care and leading of Kym, and of Lani.  I
ask that You would open up to each them Your way ahead; the presence of
Your joy and peace, and soothe with Your balm the pains of past days. Touch
Lani's confusion with the assurance of Your overal control and love, and
grant Your wisdom, gentleness and love to those who advise her. 
Dear LORD, I bring Jill's brother David before You again too, that Your
peace would fill his heart as he becomes greatly aware of You walking
beside him moment by moment, and knows that their dear earthly father is in
Your even more real presence, fulfilled for eternity!  My LORD, grant him
such joy at this depth of realisation that it will make him overflow in
love for You, and turn even the relief of grief into a new dimension of 
joy, in the life that You have given....
Gracious God, I ask that You would show Your compassion for the bereaved, 
in Your care and provision for Glen's Aunt Rose, that in mourning the loss 
of her husband, she will know Your answer to the practical needs of living, 
in mobility.  My Father, raise up Your answer to this practical problem of 
provision in a way which will give her heart rejoicing and comfort even in 
her grief.  Meet the family in this, I pray my Father, that Your personal 
and individual loving care would take on a new reality for each one, as You 
touch their lives.
My Saviour and Sovereign, if You were to count our sins against us, who  
could survive Your wrath?  Thank You that when You died for me, all my 
sins, as then uncommitted, were taken care of, not so that I could sin 
carelessly, but so that my yearnings to fulfil the righteousness You have 
bought would not destroy me by my inevitable failures.  Who can tell the
trials with which You entrust Your servants, and what spiritual battles are
bring glory in Your eyes, while we perceive but the outward distresses and
pains... Thank You LORD that there is no sin able to wrest a soul from Your
embrace; that though one lose his vision and prematurely plunge himself
into Your presence, yet through the shame of that instant of deepest
doubt, You remain faithful; that Your 'could you not watch with Me one
hour?' turns to 'Well done, thou good and faithful servant.'  As we
remember Your hour of blackest loneliness on the cross, and that cry which
echoed through the foul torments of sin applied to holiness "My God, Why
have You forsaken Me?", we can only trust You with our own time and
eternity, that Your hand will carry us through our deepest distresses and
blackest nights into Your glory.  Comfort, I pray, those who mourn this 
brother of troubled departure, until now the bishop of Massachusetts, 
David Johnson, with an assurance that he lies now in Your infinite peace
and comfort, with not only mortal troubles laid aside, but with eternal
peace filling his soul in Your presence.

    Pam,
    Look at page B2 in the US West phone book.  There are instructions
    about what to do if you receive a obscene or harassing phone call.  One
    of the methods outlined is to activate something called "Call Trace" -
    assuming it is available in your area.  After you receive the call,
    hang up, pick up the phone again and dial *57 and follow the recorded
    instructions.  This will make an electronic record of the call just
    received and can be used for prosecution.  After that, I would assume
    you can call the operator and register a complaint.  The phone book
    says there is a charge for each activation of Call Trace, but doesn't
    say how much.  Tell this girl to use it!
    Also, did she call the police about the brake lines being cut?  I
    wouldn't be messing around with someone like this.

    she had indicated that the called the police and she

    PTL Nancy.  God is gracious and I'm thankful her father's suffering
    was shortened and that he could be home with Jesus as was his desire.
    
    II Corinthians 1:3-4
    Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father
    of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our
    troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort
    we ourselves have received from God.
    
    There is a short book by Chuck Swindoll called "For Those Who Hurt" 
    which looks at II Corinthians 1.  It's short, but comforting.  My 
    mother and I thought it was the best book we were given on grief.  
    You can probably pick it up at most christian bookstores for around $5.  
    
    My prayers are with your boss,

|  | Dear LORD, I thank You for the testimony of Karen's grandmother; for her
walk with You, and Your reaching through her to the family.  I pray that in
these days of weakness You would be beside her; that she would know Your
word to her heart; Your peace and comfort day by day and moment by moment,
whether this is the time for her to step into her reward in Your presence,
or whether You yet have further work for her to do here below.  Grant that
Your presence with the family would be rich through this time, that they
may all be aware of Your peace, goodness and love, and anticipate the joy
of throwing aside the weakness of the flesh, to delight in You, our LORD
and Saviour; our Love, for ever.... 
My Father, I bring Bob Grover before You just now, with the upsets and 
traumas which have hit his life recently.  I ask that You would reach out 
and protect him; putting a hedge around him, that nothing would touch his 
spirit, but that through it all he would be aware of the peace that passes 
all understanding, from You Yourself, standing beside him throughout the 
crises, and being his answer to every question.  I ask for Your provision 
of employment for him, that he may fill his place in the home with added 
joy, knowing in a new depth, that every good and perfect gift comes from 
above.  I pray especially for Bob Jr, and ask that Bob may be given 
gentleness, patience and great love and discernment in dealing with him; 
that the root of this problem may be revealed, and Bob Jr would know the 
price that Your love put on him, and be released to live in that love.  I 
ask Your protection over the whole family at this time, my LORD...
Gracious LORD, I ask for Your protection over Nancy in the situation which 
has arisen; that You would set Your righteousness upon her as a protection 
for this man to perceive as holy; that his actions and desires may be 
exposed to his own heart as unclean.  And I pray that Nancy would know 
Your assurance of love and peace in these circumstances; that in her 
endeavour to do Your will, she would know the taunts of the enemy as empty 
accusations which cannot stick to Your child.  Take her hand, LORD, and 
lead her in Your gracious way moment by moment...
O Holy One, I bring before You the family and friends of these lads and 
their youth pastor who have been so suddenly snatched into Your presence.
Our hearts ache with an echoing 'Why?' as we see their youth, and all that
we would normally expect to lie before them.  In Your merciful love alone
we trust, as we see the veil into eternity parted for an instant, and a
fellowship brought face to face with the God of the here and now, and not
just of the 'someday'...  Be comfort, strength and richness to your
children who remain to mourn; be provision to those whose grief also has
to handle unprepared expences; be life to those who see only death. And 
above all, let us be aware that our anticipation and fulfillment is 
eternity in Your presence, and that will satisfy every heart resting in 
Jesus...

going through, and would add prayer upon prayer that he and his family
would be sustained throughout the trial by a great awareness of Your 
presence; a total certainty that You are in control and have not at all 
forgotten them, but are using them for great glory and blessing; that You 
will bring them through this time to a place where he can say :
	"The LORD was my support.
	  He brought me out into a spacious place;
	He rescued me because He delighted in me."

I pray also for Bob & Peggy's sons, the school situation and the teacher's
attitude, that You would, in Your great mercy and love reverse the

may be rich and fruitful, that You would be in every communication there...
I also bring before You Kym, for Your leading into the place of fellowshp 
and blessing that You have for him...
Gracious, LORD, I ask that Your voice would speak to Pam's Uncle Burt, tat 
even at this late stage in his life, he may see Your goodness and grasp the 
offer of salvation, even as diod the thief on the cross beside You...
And so many other dear friends in spoken and unskoken needs, my LORD. 
Touch them each one, I pray, with Your love.

    for Your comfort, strength, guidance, and healing for those who are
    right now beset with issues that have a major impact on their lives.
    I pray for Paul's friends, and the little babies in their mother's
    womb.  Lord God be with them and heal the situation.  I pray for all
    those out of work right now, like Bob Grover, and the many who may be
    facing that situation this coming week as Digital goes through more
    layoffs.  Lord I pray for the lost, the sick, the grieving, the poor,
    the downtrodden, and those who are confused, frightened, and threatened
    in any way.
    Our Father, our King, blessed is Your great name because of Your patience,
    Your compassion, and Your loving-kindness.  May Your name be known and

|  | Jesus, I pray for Don.  How well you know that our earthly comfort or term of
life is as nothing when laid against eternity.  Lord Jesus, how severe your
mercy can seem, as you do what is necessary to strip away our
self-sufficiency and bring us to a saving knowing of you.
Jesus, break through to Don.  Whether he live a year or 5 or 20, use this
cancer as the shock that shows him that he is NOT in control, never has been,
and never can be.  That there MUST be another source of life and strength
than what he has known.  Feed him salt Lord.  And then when you have made him
thirsty for that water only you can provide, Jesus I pray that you come to
him and quench that thirst, quench it eternally.

You would show him clearly the path you have for him, the path of blessing.
Grant him peace of mind and assurance in facing this, that he may know 
himself and his family safe in Your will.
My LORD, I also bring to You the Good Friday service which is to be held at

Grant that we may come with repentant and open hearts, my LORD, ready to

	FWIW, your symptoms do sound similar to gall bladder problems.
	There is not usually pain, but more a consistent nausea after

|  | My Father, I bring before You the requests raised recently, that all Your
children in this community would know Your hand upon them for peace and for
blessing....
I pray especially for Pam, for ongoing victory and patience in showing You
in situations where other attitudes, prevail and so easily colour our own
response.  LORD, we all need Your wisdom and discernment in such
situations.
I pray for those with the threat of cancer hanging over them - for Ruth, in
6.964, for John Paget and Jason Gould in 6.967 - thank You for the success
of John's treatment - for Steve Leech's step-father (6.948).  Thank You
that You have all these things under your control, and we know that in all
things You give the victory, whether in the restoration of health and
strength to creation fulfillment, in translation into Your presence, or
even in the continuation of life glorifying You under situations which
would be stress to those who know only this life.
I pray also for those here who have other struggles with their health; that
they may see You though all the lessons You entrust to them - for Donna and
Karen, and others too...
I pray for Mark and the family, in the new job You have opened up for them,
that they may know Your presence and blessing in the path of Your leading.
I pray for Pam and the family, with the heart rending things that have
happened there in recent weeks, that You would prove Your healing in their
hearts, and especially in the new pain of rejected relationship... 
I pray too for Janice Lee, and those two little children who have lost
their father so suddenly.  May they know You, as the greatest Father and
Husband, ministering to their hearts and providing for their every need.
Take from them the shock, and great to them, a deep deep assurance of Your
presence and protection, Your peace, which passes all understanding, taking
them through into calm waters...

|  | My Father, I bring before You this dear family of Yours who are aching with
the pain of sudden parting.  I ask that You,. above all, would be
especially preent at this remembrance service.  Touch each one who attends 
with an awareness of Your love; Your perace; Your strength, and an assurance 
that Kim is so very much more alive with You than ever this life can 
experience.  Especially I ask for Janice, that Your arms would be about her 
to support her through this time.  That she may know Your victory in her 
heart, as she knows that they will be reunited when her race is also 
completed, and Your "Well done!" ushers her into the eternal glory, where 
there is no death, no mourning, no pain and no parting...  I pray for 
Matthew and Melissa, with that aching emptiness where their hearts long for 
the daddy You gave into their lives.  LORD, if we feel such distress for 
them, how much more do You?  Be to them all they need, as loving perfect 
Father; protect and guide them, provide for their every need, Father, and 
particularly through this afternoon, as a token of Your love and grace to 
them....  Enable the fellowship in standing beside the family, LORD...
I also pray for Kim's relatives.  Grant that in this service they would 
catch a glimpse of You that would silence any unrest, dissatisfaction or 
offense.  Grant that that glimpse would give them a taste - an opening 
which would enable the Holy Spirit in their hearts, dear LORD, for Your 
glory.

    your healing hand on Ruth and restore her to full health again. If it
    is you will to take Ruth from us at this time i pray that we may see it
    not as a loss but a short parting before we are reunited in paradise.

	Heavenly Father, I ask that your healing hand be upon
	Ruth.  Nothing is impossible for you, dear Lord.  I pray
	that your mercy be poured out upon her at this time.
	May she rest in the knowledge that you alone are Lord, and
	leave this entire situation in your hands, trusting that you
	know her heart's desire.
	May she remember Psalms 27:13-14
	"I would have despaired had I not believed that I would see
	the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.  Wait
	for the Lord, let your heart take courage, yes wait for the Lord"
	and that the sufferings of the present world are not worthy
	to be compared to the Glory that is to come.
	I ask that your comfort, peace, and strength be upon Ruth,
	Andrew, and Emily as they go through this together.  Bring
	them the help and support of their friends and family to ease
	the burdens of everyday tasks, and to hold them up in prayer.
	I ask this all in Jesus' name,
	Amen

My heart aches and my eyes overflow for Rodney and Tina, in this double
blow.  After we were rejoicing in the deliverance from the earlier danger,
knowing that You are all powerful, and seeing Your goodness in that
preservation, this seems such a hard blow to bear.  I ask that You will
bring deep comfort to Rodney and Tina, and the grandparents, a deep
assurance that Your hand was never removed from the twins; that they
continue in Your perfect care.  Fill that aching pain in their hearts with
Your love, Your peace, Your comfort, my Father...

|  | My Father, Who cares for the widow and the orphan, I pray for Mariann and
her son and daughter, and for Candy and her two daughters, that You would 
enfold them in Your arms, that they might know a new dimension of your 
loving care.  Turn their bereavement into a heavenly link, that they may 
feel an ever greater personal investment in heaven, and know Your supply as 
did the widow of Zarephath, who, gathering her last resources, was met by 
Elijah, the prophet of God, and a glorious miracle or provision.  Touch 
their lives with Your new life afresh, I pray; be their comfort and daily 
delight.
My LORD, I also bring Donna before You, that she may continue to know Your 
leading and guiding, into the emnployment that You have for her.  Thank You 
for the time You have given her in digital, and the fellowship we have 
enjoyed together.  Grant, I pray, that she should be a blessing wherever 
You take her, until we all meet in Your presence, never to be separated.
Gracious Father, I bring before You Wendy Bruce, that You would be the
strength of her heart and her comfort at this time.  I ask for wisdom and
skill for the medical team with responsibility in her case, and that she
would know a drawing close to You through this time of testing, as she is
aware of Your personal care over her.  I pray for relief from the
suffering, and for the wisdom and love, expressed from You through Tanya
and John, to touch her heart with encouragement and life.

|  | Holy LORD, above all creation, which exists at Your command, and for Your 
pleasure, we see two worlds existing around us at the same time.  We see 
Your world, of beauty and delight.  Of joy and peace.  Which came into 
being out of Your heart of love....  
But we see too the world in rebellion against You.  A world of vicious 
selfishness, where the worst excesses become more oppressive daily.  A 
world in which man has made himself the petty god, who destroys all around, 
leaving an empty desolation.
Thank You LORD that You have come and born the burden of sin and pain.  
Thank You that the doors of heaven are open before us.
Thank You that You care not only for the great matters, the world shattering 
events, the rise and fall of empires, the outcome of matters of state, but 
also for us as individual people.  So we can bring to You our hopes and 
fears, our longings, aches and wounds, and know that they are safe in Your 
hands.
Gracious Father, how loving You are!  I ask that You would minister to 
Nancy, to touch her heart with Your hope afresh in her daily circumstances; 
to answer her pleas before they are made; to supply her needs and bless her 
home, and especially the children growing up there.  Reveal to her Your way 
forward; Your perfect answer to the interaction of these children, that they 
might live at peace together, with You in the midst...

    I find this intriguing, too.
    Even more so as this phrase appears as an answer to personal prayer.
    Karen, my wife, is currently under treatment with various 'not nice'
    drugs and UV-light. 'This is not working' says the doctor (and that's
    about right too) so he wants to put Karen on a 'really nasty' drug that
    will probably (read 'for certain!') cause liver damage.
    Reading the above has crystalised my thoughts on this - but ultimately,
    the decision is hers (in which I will support her to the best of my
    ability).
    Thank you Ray,

wisdom.  Protect him under the clumsy imitation of man's treatment, and
work in his body and in his heart Your perfect healing, to live to Your 
praise and Your glory.

    Julian,
    
    I too will be praying for Pastor Paul and his wife.  
    
    You're note made me think of my "Growing through Grief" workshop I'm
    in.  Last night we talked about the role of faith in our grief.  One
    of the other women commented on this very subject of why would God
    allow this to happen to her mother.  Then she came to the realization
    in the midst of her grief that bad things happen all around us every
    day because of the fall and why should it be that pain should not 
    touch her life.  Should it have happened to someone else's mother 
    instead?  She commented on Job too that he asked God a ton of 
    questions and it was comforting to know that it was okay to do that.  
    We're in a relationship with God and he wants us to engage him.  
    Even Jesus knowing God's perfect plan cried out on the cross in the 
    midst of his suffering, why?  I don't believe this was because he 
    didn't understand God's plan but rather because he felt the intensity 
    of the pain that he took for us.  I also think of Job when he said 
    to his wife am I only to take the good from God and not the bad.  
    And lastly, I'd just like to add to expand on Jeff's theme this verse:
    
    Jer 29:11  "For I know the plans I have for you." declares the LORD,
    "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plan to give you hope 
    and a future."
    
    And what a glorious future it will be with him.  I know my dad is
    finally home now.  He already knows the number of our days.  I'm
    sure that when the shock wears off their faith will get them through
    whatever God allows in their lives.  
    
    Jill
    
    P.S.  II Cor 1 is a great chapter on comfort too.

	Strengthen them for the work ahead.  
	I pray for those stricken, and those living in the area.
	Bring them peace in the midst of this storm, and draw them

	Lord, I also pray for the survivors of the OKC bombing.  As

|  | Father, God, I adore You.  You are so loving, so gracious, so patient with 
us sinful creatures, as we so easily forget how wonderful You are, and get 
swallowed up in enjoying the things You have made, instead of enjoying You...
Father, I thank You that You care about each individual, and the detailed 
concerns of our lives here below.  I bring before You afresh those who have 
entered concerns in here in recent days, to be brought before Your throne, 
that Your healing may be poured into each wound; that Your peace would bind 
up enmities, and turn them into Your love....
I bring before You Tanya's sister, Wendy Bruce, and her physical and
spiritual needs, that You would continue to minister to her and bless her.
I pray for Nancy's financial needs, her house-sharing situation and her 
care over her two sons, that You would be present in all areas of her life.
I pray for Your peace and guidance; Your presence and comfort day by day
for those burdened by sickness - for Mike, who Ray told us about; for
Pastor Paul (and his wife), mentioned by Julian; for Trish, in Sydney, and 
for Tawnya involved in the accident.
Please be with Jack and the family in the job move, and in fellowship, 
bearing them up in every need, practical, and spiritual...
Grant Your presence to Dtui, away from her native land, and under pressure 
from the workload and from accomodation difficulties, that she would find 
in You her peace, safety and security.  Grant James and Petria wisdom and 
patience in helping her.
I pray too that You would comfort the bereaved, with an awareness of Your
overreaching love in total control, bearing our griefs and our sorrows.
Especially I commit to You, Nancy's friend's family, and those affected by
her death.  Touch their lives with Your glorious presence, granting them
that vision of knowing You, when death has lost it's sting, and becomes
instead the gateway to life everlasting...

I bring before You those who have recently been bereaved.  Charlie Ferrell
and his wife, Rod and Tina, Nancy's friend's mother at the Little League...
In England in the last two days, two crashes - a coach and a plane - have
sent 10 and 12 respectively to face You, and left stunned and grieving
relatives.  Every day, more are taken into eternity.  LORD, we are all
destined to take that step, into Your awesome presence!  My LORD, I ask
that those who are still waiting here for their call may turn to face You;
may bow the knee here, while yet there is time, that they may know Your
assurance, love and comfort. 
I pray especially for orphaned ones, that they may know You supplying their 
every need - physical, emotional and spiritual.  And for parents, that the 
hungry ache in their hearts would be met with the love of the Father Who 
gave His only Son for them.

| 7.930 | important message | VNABRW::WILLIAMS |  | Mon Jun 26 1995 05:47 | 38 | 
|  |    This message may help you through the day.
 
   I just had to send a note to tell you how much I love and care about you. 
   Yesterday, I saw you walking with your friends. I waited all day hoping 
   you would want to talk with me. As evening drew near, I gave you a sunset 
   to close your day and a cool breeze to rest you. Then I waited but you 
   never came. Yes I was dissapointed, but I still love you because you are 
   my friend.
   
   When you fell asleep last night, I longed to touch your brow, so I 
   spilled moonlight on your pillow and face. Again I waited, wanting to 
   rush down so that we can talk - I have so many gifts for you. But you 
   awakened late next day and rushed off to work... my tears were in the 
   rain.
   
   Today you looked so sad, all alone. It makes my heart ache because I 
   understand. My friends let me down so many times too, but I love you.
   Oh! if you would only listen to me. I really love you. I try to tell you 
   in the blue sky and in the quiet green grass; I wisper it in the flowers. 
   I shout it to you in the mountain streams and give the birds love songs 
   to sing. I clothe you with warm sunshine and perfume the air with 
   narure's scent. My love for you is deeper than the oceans and greater 
   than any need you might have.
   
   We will spend eternity together in heaven. I know how hard it is on 
   earth; I really know because I was there. If only you knew how much I 
   want to help you. My Father wants to help you, too. He's that way you 
   know.
   
   Just call upon me, ask me, talk to me. It is your decision. You are free 
   to call me, it's up to you. I'll wait, since I have chosen you and will 
   never leave you - because I love you.
   
   Your friend 
   Jesus

   Holy Spirit I ask you to bless readers of this notes conference
   and, as I read this prayer I humbly ask that You to guide my thoughts 
   in the direction of our Heavenly Father. I thank You for creating 
   this opportunity enabling us jointly to praise and thank our Father 
   in Heaven for His Love and Mercy.
   
   Please Holy Spirit come down on us now, sanctify this notes conference 
   so that it will continue to be an instrument of praise to God the Father,
   God the Son and You Holy spirit. Bring us into a peaceful loving state
   of mind so that we may honor and worship with a pure heart and mind.
   
   Lord my creator, I am unworthy to be called your child and yet you ask me 
   to call you Father.
   Oh! Father, maker of the Universe, Healer and giver of life, you value 
   each one of your children more than all the Business politics and yet I 
   come today under the disguise of business, to ask for Your healing on all
   Digital employees relatives and friends who are in need of healing in some
   way and to ask a blessing our company Digital. I ask Your Blessing
   especially on all employees who are overburdened at this time preparing 
   the year end closure. 
   
   I thank you for this company which supports thousands of families and 
   thank you for our founder Ken Olsen. I ask for Your Blessing on all him and 
   beseech You to bring understanding to the shareholders during this moment 
   of uncertainty.
   We thank you Lord for our management and we ask for your guidance in 
   their planning and decision making.
   We ask you lord to guide their leadership and to give them wisdom to 
   manage their employees. 
   We further ask You Holy Spirit that You visit all managers during their 
   time of prayer and inspire them, increasing their creativity so that 
   necessary decisions they have to make will be pleasing to God.
   
   Lord Jesus You came down on Earth and gave us the formula of love,
   You died to save us so that we may be forever united with You. 
   Lord you sent your Holy Spirit and made each of us temples for him to 
   reside. 
   Please help me to show love for my fellow colleagues and to recognise 
   that You are resident in them. Remind me of this especially when I need 
   to be reminded of it and help me to be an example of love to them.
   I saw you Lord a thousand times today and forgot to say Hallo. I saw you 
   in the receptionist, cleaner, secretary, the machanic, the salesman and 
   analyst but didn't think always to say Hallo. Please remind me of this 
   each time I meet a fellow colleague.
   
   Oh Lord Jesus we love you and we ask for your Blessing on new employees 
   so that they will be strengthened in their task to achieve what is 
   expected of them.
   Lord we ask you to motivate all your children at Digital, management and 
   employees, so that they will produce what is expected of them in a family 
   team spirit and in a way pleasing to You. Please inspire them Lord with 
   positive thoughts.
       
   We thank You Lord for our customers and ask You to guide us to adopt the 
   right approach when negotiating with them. Lead us Lord to new customers and 
   help us to be honest business partners.
    
   Oh Lord we ask you to bless our colleagues who are on pension, to help 
   those less fortunate who have had to take leave of this company, please 
   assist them Lord to find suitable, satisfying functions elswhere.
   Help our colleagues Lord who are on maternity leave. Enable them Lord to 
   bring up their new born into the world in safety and into a world of love.
   Inspire them Lord to raise their newborn in the name and love of You.
   Help our colleagues Lord who are sick so that they will have a quick 
   recovery especially I bring to You the father of Rich who has had a
   heart attack and is in need of Your healing care. Bless also his family
   who are concerned and under stress.
      
   We ask you to Bless this building Lord so that all who visit and work 
   here will be pure in thought. Please hinder Lord all thoughts inspired by 
   the devil and all actions that lead to disruption, hatred, bordom, 
   corruption and power games. We ask this Lord in the name of Jesus Christ 
   our Loving Friend.
   
   We ask You especially to Bless all those we meet today and all those 
   who talk bad of us. Bless in particular all those I have wronged.
   Help me Lord to increase my productivity by remaining positive even when 
   decisions appear to go against me.          
   
   Lord I proclaim this Branch office for the Lord Jesus Christ. We want to 
   go beyond that Lord I want to proclaim the whole company Digital for the 
   Lord Jesus Christ. Please help us Lord in this process.
    
   Amen.

|  | Dear Father, Who bore all for us, I bring Chele's aunt Esther before You in
her illness and distress, and in all the problems of life, asking that You
reach in and calm her heart.  Grant her Your peace, in forgiving those with
whom she has a block - with Adele's family in particular - opening to a
full and loving fellowship with all of the family.  Take away her fear of
surgery, and even of meeting You, in knowing the wonderful joy of that
fulfillment, and in knowing that Your hands are around her through all the
experiences of life. 
Grant Laurie delicacy and tenderness in meeting her, when that opportunity 
should come, and take away Esther's fear of talking of You - turn it into 
an eagerness, LORD, to speak and learn of the One Who loves her enough to 
die for her...
Be with Chele and Greg - maybe even right now, as they visit her - that 
they would have the right words of strength and comfort; of encouragement 
and peace, that Esther may know a great joy in her heart as she realises 
a new fullness of the truth of Your love and relationship to Your 
children.

| 7.943 | For Chele's Aunt | CPCOD::JOHNSON | A rare blue and gold afternoon | Fri Jul 07 1995 10:51 | 18 | 
|  |      Lord, God, our loving Father who knows our weaknesses, our fears,
     our stumbling blocks, enfold Your Spirit around Chele to give her
     wisdom, comfort, strength, encouragement, and patience as a mediator
     between her aunt whom she loves much, and her aunt's children.  I
     pray that You will give Chele deep insight into both the mind and 
     heart of aunt, and of her aunt's children.  Help her to explain to her
     cousin the importance of first sharing his mother's fear and grief,
     uniting with her to face this threat which throat cancer brings, to 
     give to his mother the strength which his faith gives him, without
     being a "thumper" who gives anxiety rather than peace.  Help him to 
     see that faith can express itself in different ways in different 
     persons.  Yeshua, Redeemer, I ask that You give Chele's aunt safe
     passage through the disease and medical treatment.  Bring her close
     to You, and give her a peace that will allow her strength in her fight
     against the cancer.  Father I ask for healing through whatever means
     You choose to use.
     Amen.

|  | My Father, I thank You for the wonder of Your creation, and all that You 
have given us to enjoy; that demonstrates Your glory in this world.  I 
thank You for the variety in the world, with each place having its own type 
of beauty!  I ask for Your care over Andrea and her classmates and their 
teachers as they travel to understand a little more about this world.  It 
seems such an immense undertaking for these youngsters, and we ask that You 
would be one of the party, sustaining and refreshing in the rigours of 
travel, meeting schedules and journey transfers, and keeping them safe in 
the forest work and under-water explorations that they plan to do.  LORD, 
this is all Your world, and we rejoice in that knowledge.  We cannot 
inadvertently stray outside Your scope of control!
	"Where can I go from Your Spirit?
	   Where can I flee from Your presence?
	 If I go up to the heavens You are there;
	   If I make my bed in the depths, You are there
	 If I rise on the wings of the dawn,
	   if I settle on the far side of the sea,
	      even there Your hand will guide me,
	  Your right hand will hold me fast."
							Psalm 139:7-10
I pray also for Your care over the parents, waiting back at home, that they
may know the assurance of Your loving care; that this trip is under Your
protection, and that Your peace may reign in their hearts throughout.

that Your perfect plan for his life is being worked out, and that there are 
no gaps in Your care over him.  Help him to enjoy a refreshing break, and

she goes through this time of waiting, she would know Your arms around her;
Your voice in her ear; Your strength in her heart.  And, my Father, I ask
that You would grant that extension of temporal life as you gave to
Hezekiah, which You alone can give.
I pray also for Nancy, that You would be her strength and support in this

the heart to express what You have for her.  And thaht You would work a 
work of repentance and deliverance in Rafael's heart, Father.

minister to him in body, mind and spirit.  Help him to know Your presence,
comfort and peace.  Reach to him through Gary, and help the family to be 
aware of Your love for them all, biringing them through this difficult 
time.
Thank You LORD for Your hand upon Chele, in the visit to her aunt, and the 
relationship work that was needed in the family at that time.  I ask that 
Your loving care would continue to be extended over them all through the 
days of treatment, and that You would heal not only physical wounds, but 
wounds of the soul too.  Continue to guide and bless Chele and Greg as they 
represent You in this situation.
Gracious LORD, I bring Jill and her husband before You also, and ask that 
You would withdraw the pain from between them.  That her husband would see 
Jill with a new clarity that sees You through her; that Jill would see her 
husband as You see him - as he can be in Your strength. My Father, I ask 
that You protect their chidren from the distress of marriage under such 
fierce attack.  Enter their home through Jill, and bring Your peace for all 
the members there; I ask, in Your light of 1 Corinthians 7:14, that before 
it is too late, Jill would prove a sanctifying influence on her husband.

|  | My Father, How I thank You that We can bring our heart needs and cares and 
concerns before You at any time and know that You care and love to lift 
from us anything that is not helping us to be more like You...
I bring Gary Pinkerton's dad to You again, and ask for Your peace in his 
heart as he recovers from this stroke.  Be with himand the family, I pray!
I pray for Jill Diewald, that You would reach in and minister to her and 
her family, even while they're on vacation just now; that she and her 
husband would see each other with Your eyes, and know the blood of Jesus 
healing their marriage.  Father, I ask especially that her husband would 
know _Your_ love for him, and learn its value to his own heart, that the 
family would be united before the throne, rejoicing in Your salvation.
Father, I pray for Steve and his step-father, that You would work a miracle 
of grace in Don's heart.  Anoint Steve with Your Holy Spirit to speak the 
words which will touch Don's heart, and open the way for the Holy Spirit to 
work in him, top bring him to salvation.  I thank You for that conviction 
in Steve's heart that You have one opportunity for him to share the gospel 
with Don.  I ask that Steve's heart would be overflowing with Your love as 
he shares, and that this would bear rich fruit for the kingdom.  help him 
to practise, as well, LORD ;-).  I bring before You also Don's illness, 
thath Your hand would overrule here too, and also that You would protect 
and sustain Steve's mum through this time.
I pray for Laurie, and others who were close to Maxine, for Your comfort 
and very close presence in this loss; that they may know what it is to find 
You lightening their burden and relieving their sorrows, as they know her 
safe in Your arms.
I pray for Sean and Wendy, that Your hand wold be upon them for eternal 
good this evening; that they would know a great release and relief as You 
minister through Your servant.
Father, I bring Nancy's boss before You again, that You would meet her 
where she is, and grant her heart assurance that her whole life is in Your 
hands, and no others, and that Your love for her is greater than we can 
even understand.  Grant her a great confidence in You, my LORD I pray.
I pray for those affected by the death of Nancy's co-worker's father, that 
You would speak to many about their eternal condition, that they may seek
Your assurance of a right standing with You, and thereby know the greatest
comfort.
Father, I bring Nancy and her mother before You today.  Grant them a happy 
reunion, I pray, and  a time of healing and blessing together.  Unite them 
in your love, my Father, and melt away any old pains and sores, that You 
would be present in their reunion.

|  | Gracious Father, I bring this grieving family before You, Who has known
every grief our hearts can bear, and ask that You take and sanctify this
grief to them, that it would be turned to the comfort - the joy - of
knowing Your complete, all-encompassing love reaching round them with
salvation.  LORD, we can see that the departed one was loved, from the
nickname of 'Princess' that was given to her.  Fill that great place in
their hearts, I pray, that their hold on You would be the stronger, and
Your hold on them assured for eternity.

is in just now.  Gracious LORD, I ask that he would find that deep peace 
which passes all understanding, that he would find Your salvation in the 
LORD Jesus, and know the healing of his distresses.  I pray for his wife 
also, that she would realise the error of her ways, and repent before You. 
Thank You merciful Father, that it is yet the day of salvation, and that 
there is room for forgiveness, not only in a temporal measure, but in the 
eternal dimension of Your presence.  Reach in while their hearts are in 
turmoil, O LORD, to teach them your truth and love, I pray

the work done in his heart; for the conviction of the Holy Spirit, and his 
awareness of his need.  I pray that You would continually speak to his 
heart, that none of the worlds pressure would distract him from his heart 
need pf salvation, but rather, that his fianc�e would know a conviction in 
ther heart that this is her need also.  Thank You LORD, that Your Name is
love, and that You brought us salvation, which no other could do.  May Your 
Name be honoured in these hearts and lives, I pray!

 We have a similar situation with a couple in my church, though the roles
 are reversed.  The (now) fiance had strayed from the Lord and the man she
 was seeing was not a Christian.  She got right with the Lord and ended their
 relationship.  He eventually was saved and they are now engaged and serving
 the Lord faithfully in our church.

    Grace and Wisdom in this trying time, as they are your instruments of
    Your mercy to Dtui. Lord, lift them, and comfort them too, in this time

|  | The time difference and international date line are not necessary for
the effect of prayers to take place before the prayers were even made.
God works outside time and space.
This doesn't mean that a prayer to _undo_ something will be effective,
but it does mean that prayer can have effects which cannot be explained
in time and space.
Consider a prayer for fair weather.  Praying tonight for fair weather
tomorrow in Boston requires God to influence weather systems several
days ago in Canada and Georgia.  Yet he does answer our prayers.

	Why in the world would you be angry with God for allowing this? Yes,
there was human physical pain involved. But in your note you stated how Petria
was present throughout the ordeal. How she helped you make it through it. You
stayed due to her supporting you. Think of it. God chose what was a very 
painful thing, provided you with the help and support that you needed to get
through it, helped show you Petria's love for you, and you're angry? I sure
hope it's the pain killers talking! :-) Cuz when the pain finally does go away,
which it will, you will still have God's love, and Petria's. To *me*, that is
something to be thanking God for, not be angry with Him about.

 the doctors who are overseeing him, and guide them as they meet his needs..
 But Lord, far more important is his need for salvation.  I pray Lord you'll
 lead that person into his life this day, who can point the way to the Cross,
 where he will meet the Savior..
 Grant peace to this family in this time.

    The feeling left behind when one's home has been violated isn't much
    different than a woman feels after she's been raped.  Praying for your
    wife and children that they would know security.
    
    Also, for you, that you'd know forgiveness.  I imagine Jesus could have
    felt robbed of an earthly life when he died on the cross, yet he died
    with a forgiving heart.

|  | Thank You my Father that our treasure does not lie in earthly things, but 
that it is safe in Your hands, where it cannot decay or be corroded, or 
even be stolen!
I ask Your care over Mike and his family, that they may know that their 
peace cannot be disturbed.  That their treasure is eternal, and that their 
personal safety is Your concern.  Deliver them from any anger or 
vindictiveness over this distressing incident, and fill their hearts with 
your love.
I pray for those whose only treasure lies in mere temporal things that they 
can have only for time, until death leaves them empty handed, and without 
Christ.  Especially those who were so lost to any personal integrity as to
seize the possessions from Mike's house.  Speak to them, LORD, that Your
Holy Spirit would touch their hearts to convict them that they have lost
more than mere worldly wealth can ever regain, and that they may repent, 
seeking Your righteousness, through the blood of Jesus

    I've had my car broken into twice (expensive stereo gear stolen), so I
    have at least a small idea of your sense of violation.

nothing can slip past Your guard; he is safe in Your hands.

    Behold, He that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.
    The LORD is thy keeper: the LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand.
    The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.

    throughout his life.  In Jesus' name, Amen.
    
    
    Clayton and Matthew had a similar experience and Clayton to this day
    struggles with being alone in his bedroom.   We had someone 
    in our backyard right by their bedroom windows.  I panicked when I saw 
    them and of course this scared the kids even more.  I was still married 
    then so I began screaming for Rafael!!!
    
    While my brave husband donned a knife and went into the backyard, I
    called the police.  My husband was insulted, after all he was
    protecting us just fine! :-)

children, that not only are You in our hearts as the deposit of the Holy 
Spirit, but also we are in Your heart.
Thank You that Dtui is safely home, restored to good health.  I ask that 
this be sustained, and that You touch her memories, so that the bad things
be purged out, and the good retained.  Bless her in settling down into the 
life You have given her, I pray...
Dear Father, I bring this faithful servant of Yours before You, who is troubled 
to the point of illness over administrative stress and bad feeling in his 
residence.  Help him to know You lifting this burden from his shoulders, and 
freeing him to rest in You, regardless of the attacks of the world.  Comfort 
and sustain his wife, as she walks beside him through this difficult time.
And Father - I'd ask You to be strength, ministering to James in facing 
emotional situations like this, that he finds difficult too.  Meet each one 
where they are, LORD, and show them their burden, carried on Your back.
My LORD, I praise You for Matt's salvation, and lift him before You just now,
that as the enemy would tear at the prey he has lost, Matt would know Your
strong defence protecting him; that he would know Your arms around him, and see
the enemy quail in fear. that Matt would know living in his heart, that: 
    'Greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world!'
and rejoice that these words are true and active in his own experience, as he 
is delivered from an old bondage which is broken by Jesus' blood.  Reveal to 
Matt anything which still needs to be dealt with from before he knew You, that 
he might know afresh the relief of Your cleansing in every corner of his life.

We have a missionary couple based in South India.  A few months back 
the husband was involved in a motorbike accident which meant that his leg 
had to be amputated.  They were on the verge of returning for a furlough, 
and the LORD brought many things together (like, the house arranged for 
them didn't need him to use upstairs).  He now has an artificial leg, which 
will take a while over detailed adjustments.  Also - the amputation was 
done at the roadside in India, and apparently he has got hepatitis B from a 
bood transfusion there.  However, through it all he has shown the joy of 
the LORD.

    My best friend in the world, Glenn Greenstein, has been HIV+ for 12
    years.  He has been asymptomatic for the duration.  Yesterday during a
    routine eye examination the doctor informed  him that he has a virus in
    the eye which the doctor has only seen once; in an asymptomatic HIV+
    person.  It is apparently in some cases the first symptom of AIDS.
    
    The virus could lead to blindness, the treatment is astonomically
    expensive, and Glenn doesn't have insurance, naturally.
    
    Please pray for healing for Glenn and that he will not fear but that the 
    Holy Spirit will fill him with peace at all times and in all ways. 
    Please pray for his wife and child that they too will be strengthened
    in their spirits by the peace of God.
    
    As a little background, Glenn came out of a perverse lifestyle many
    years ago by the grace of God.  He speaks occasionally to church
    groups, especially teens, about the power of God and the consequences
    of sin.  He and his wife were featured on the 700 Club several years
    ago as a testimony to the power of God over sin.  They have a Downs
    Syndrome child, Caleb, who is five years old.
    
    As an aside, they are members of the Church of God.  They have believed
    that Glenn is healed of HIV/AIDS even in the face of annual repeated
    tests.  The deception and evil inherent in the "name it claim it" and 
    "health and wealth" doctrine is going to come home to roost, I'm afraid, 
    on the doorstep of my dearest friends.  Please pray that they will be
    strengthened in their faith, not weakened, even in spite of the certain
    shattering of their worldview.

    James,
    
    I know I'm a little late, but I am praying for you and Petria.
    
    How did everything go for the last day of Kids Club? and is 
    Petria feeling better?  How about you?
    
    Hang in there, He will carry you!

|  |     Praying for Petria... may she find God's strength.  You know sometimes
    God allows leadership to be unable to perform so that other can learn
    to take that role... :-)
    
    Asking isn't a sin... and it is NOT an inconvenience.  It's simply
    designed by God himself as He allows our infirmities.

    It actually went very very well, considering how sick Petria was during
    the event.  Good fun.  Lots of games for the kids.  It was a sort of
    triathalon with about twenty different short games for members of three
    teams.
    
    As for a status update, I think this log from IRC this morning shows
    enough... Kym, Harry and Nancy were on channel with me.

    <James> Hello Nancy.
    <Nancy> Hello is anybody looking?
    <Nancy> Hi James, I just have a second and wanted to ask how is Petria?
    <James> She has been vomiting on an empty stomach every two hours since
    2am this morning, it is now 9:45am.
    <James> She is holding food and water fine.
    <Nancy> hmmm
    <James> We think this is most probably a reaction to the antibiotic and
    antiparasitical.
    <Nancy> she has a muscular infection?
    <James> No, soft tissue.
    <James> Not muscular.  Doctor moved legs through all paths to prove it
    was not muscular.
    <Nancy> soft tissue inflammation in her stomach, hip, back?
    <Nancy> parasitical????
    <Nancy> I know what the word means.. btw.
    <James> In buttocks, behind or beside the anal cavity.
    <James> Not an actual intestinal infection; the symptoms discount that.
    <Nancy> how do you get this, docs have any idea?
    <James> Working with kids... they don't wash their hands very well, and
    so things move around much easier.
    <Nancy> That's for sure...
    <James> It is possible that the infection started from a set of 22
    ticks that we found on Petria eight days ago.
    <Nancy> Let her know that I'm praying and thinking of her...
    <James> Ok.
    <Nancy> 22 ticks?????? Wow, how did she get those?
    <James> She's asleep, just checked.
    <Nancy> Ticks carry a wicked disease that can sometimes be fatal... I
    can't remember the name of it though... uhm, "Lime Disease"
    <Nancy> It'
    <Nancy> I believe that is it.
    <James> We went on a church camp weekend before last... had a walk...
    passed between two fence posts that horses nearby probably used for
    scratching.
    <Nancy> How did you get the ticks off her?
    <Nancy> turpentine, match?
    <James> The tick sites on her skin are now inflamed, by the way.  They
    were removed by application of metholated spirits or turpentine for the
    first 20, followed by tweezers.
    <James> The last two were done using tweezers only.
    <James> (By me, 'cause she couldn't get to them)
    <Nancy> Wow.... poor girl.  I'd almost bet that she's sick from those. 
    Did you tell the doc?
    <James> They were all around the waist and torso.
    <James> Yes, doc was told.
    <Nancy> Did you see my response in Christian regarding asking others to
    fill in?

|  | Gracious LORD, I bring before You the dear ones in need of Your loving
touch ministering to their hearts right now.  Thank You that grief and
suffering need not be wasted emotion, but can be an offering before the
throne, coming before the only One Who can reach into the eternal heart of 
Your design in us... 
Father, I bring before You those who have heard, and are hearing at this 
time - that they are to lose their jobs - their outwardly visible means of 
material support.  Father, I ask that You protect their practical needs,
their family stability, their awareness of Your valuation set upon them,
and their social contact and mutual support, just as far as this accords
with Your purposes in reaching into their hearts.  I ask that many would
learn to see clearly with the eyes of faith, and place their feet upon the 
Rock Who is to be their salvation, that they may even come to rejoice in 
what loosened their temporal foundations that they may know the great joy 
of Your eternal security.
I pray for those who have recently been bereaved, with the passing on of
dear ones into Your presence.  For our brothers John, with his father and
Thomas, with his wife's grandmother, as they are left with aching hearts,
missing the fellowship of these saints, but rejoicing in the knowledge of
their ultimate peace with You.  Thank You for the witness of Thomas'
family, as they seek to demonstrate that this is but a completion of the
temporal, and a commencement of the eternal reality, as Grandma steps into
glory.  Be close to each of these families I pray, dear LORD....
Father, I lift James and Petria before You as well, in this work amongst
the children.  Your love for - and care over - little children is so clear 
in Your Word.  Place your seal upon Petria's commitment, gracious Father, 
and raise up those who will be committed first to You, and because of Your 
and your love within them, to the work and to the children, that Your 
rich blessing would be seen in lives awakened to our glorious God, an the 
salvation You have provided.

    Jeanine and every member of her family are precious to you.
    You love them every bit as much as you love us.  So, we are
    bringing our concerns before you.  We ask you to give Jeanine
    a long and healthy life, like those so many of us have already
    enjoyed, and expect to enjoy in the future.  We ask you to
    restrain and control her brother, if in fact he has harmed her,
    as we have heard.  We ask you to bring emotional healing, a
    sense of security, and comfort to her son.
    
    Even more than all of these requests, we ask you to reveal yourself
    through your servants, in your Word and in your Spirit, to this family.
    Through these troubles show them that you not only exist, but that you
    care about their needs.  Draw them into a saving and healing blood
    covenant with yourself.  We ask all this name of your Son, Jesus
    Christ, King and Messiah forever, and for his greater glory, Amen.

	How you must feel our afflictions with us!  Strengthen our faith.
Help us to trust you to be willing and able to meet *all* of our needs.
Please give comfort and healing to Chele's Aunt Esther.  Help us all to
live out our remaining days, months, years, or decades, in ways that bring
blessing, glory, honor, power, might, and dominion, to you alone.  We thank
you for your abundant mercy toward us.  We ask you to especially make your
mercy clearly visible in Esther's desperately troubled body and soul.  We

|  | Chele,
I can relate.  Several years ago my Mom died of cancer.  Its a horrible
disease and death is a horrible enemy.  I am thankful that we have the
sure hope of being with the Lord in the world to come.  
This past Sunday the Boston Globe newspaper published a whole section on 
death, dying, and hospice care.  I found it very hard to read, but also 
good to read.  I wonder if there is a way to send you a copy.  I know they 
had a couple of WEB sites set up to respond to the articles/issues etcetera, 
so maybe they would have an online copy of the articles that could be sent.  
I'll check, I've saved the newspaper section.
It seems to me like God allows us all to share in the suffering of the world.
He does not make it any easier for those who worship Him, but I think we can
still find comfort in God even in the midst of pain and sorrow.  
Hugs to you, your aunt Esther, and your family.

    Praying for Jennifer..
 | 
| 7.1120 |  | HPCGRP::DIEWALD |  | Fri Aug 16 1996 16:06 | 12 | 
|  |     Thats part of the problem.  Jennifer's Mom was watching my two children
    this summer.  So all together there were 5 children.  3 of them caught
    this.  No one seems to really know where this comes from.  There have
    been other cases in the area but they haven't been able to link them at
    all.  So there is still fear that the source is still around.  There is
    still fear that the other two will catch it, but the incubation time
    has run out now so this is unlikely.  I think the Mom feels a lot of
    guilt about this too, even through she did everything in her power to 
    prevent it.  Its hard too seeing your children so sick.

|  |     Dear Heavenly Father, 
    
    I come to you on behalf of Bert, and ask Father, that you would touch
    his body and heal him.  Comfort those around him who love him with your
    peace and most of all we surrender to your will.  In Jesus name, Amen.

 Heavenly Father, I lift Julia to you and ask for comfort and peace as she
 endures this heavy loss.  Lord, may the questions that sometimes never seem
 to be answered here on this earth, be answered, and may you be glorified
 at this time.
 In Jesus name
 
 amen
