BananaD: she's back home, reckon she's a okay

Horseman: oh that is very good news :-) Happy to hear.

I lost my father, My Oldest sister and my precious Mom all in the last 18 months.

Would you guys pray for me we buried my Mom last Friday.

I will be honest and say I thought I was stronger than this.

Life can be tough at times.

Clay

You are most definately in my thoughts Clay..

ClayNashvilleTN:Got you on my prayer list Clay!

ClayNashvilleTN: yes it can Clay you are in my thoughts and prayers my friend 

ClayNashvilleTN: Awwwwwwwwwwwwwww ((((((((((Clay)))))))))))))) Yes, of course you are in my thoughts and prayers dear Brother!! Psalm 91 for you..

I am not sure why my Mom's passing seems to me to be the worse. My Secretary said perhaps it hit me that for the first time in my life I was now an orphan.

Wow did that hit home! Then it hit me! Not only is it my Mom but now I truely am an orphan. that sounds so strange to be 62 years old and that bothers me. But I think the thought has lot's of merit.

ClayNashvilleTN: I can relate. The very same thing hit me when my Dad passed away. My Mom has passed away 6 years earlier. When we said goodbye to Dad, we felt just as you do - that we were orphans - and I was not young either. Take good care of yourself.

ClayNashvilleTN:

ClayNashvilleTN: Heavenly Father:
We ask that you be with Clay and his family at this time in their lives. Help them to know that their family members are in Your loving embrace. We all stand with him to support our friend Clay, but it is only through Your support that any of us can cope through our most difficult times and we ask You to be with him.

In your Son's name, we pray.

Amen.

Shalom beloved,

Trumpet of Salvation to Israel invites you to discover a mighty work of God in Israel. Come and see... the God of Israel is inviting you!

http://www.trumpetofsalvation.org

This website will give you the revelation of this vital time in the history of Israel and the Church. We pray that you might realize the will of God and respond to the Lord's call on your life to "provoke Israel to jealousy."

Deuteronomy 32:21: They have provoked Me to jealousy by what is not God; They have moved Me to anger by their foolish idols. But I will provoke them to jealousy by those who are not a nation; I will move them to anger by a foolish nation.

Romans 11:11-15: I say them, have they stumbled that they should fall? Certainly not! But through their fall, to provoke them to jealousy, salvation has come to the Gentiles. Now if their fall is riches for the world, and their failure riches for the Gentiles, how much more their fullness! For I speak to you Gentiles;inasmuch as I am an apostle to the Gentiles, I magnify my ministry, if by any means I may provoke to jealousy those who are my flesh and save some of them. For if their being cast away is the reconciling of the world, what will their acceptance be but life from the death?

Paul here speaks about the Resurrection of Christ Jesus... Yeshua Masshiach - amen

Ruth 1:16: Your People shall me my people, and your God, my God.

Adonai echad ---> The LORD is ONE!!! Hallelu et Adonai

Please join us in prayer for the Peace of Jerusalem and their neighbour and join The Trumpet of Salvation on one or more of their campaigns.

Be blessed in His Holy Presence,
Radiant Aunt

DADDY'S EMPTY CHAIR

A man's daughter had asked the local minister

to come and pray with her father.
When the minister arrived,

he found the man lying in bed with his head

propped up on two pillows.


An empty chair sat beside his bed.
The minister assumed that the old fellow

had been informed of his visit.
"I guess you were expecting me, he said.


'No, who are you?" said the father.
The minister told him his name and then remarked,

"I saw the empty chair and I figured you knew

I was going to show up."


"Oh yeah, the chair," said the bedridden man.
"Would you mind closing the door?"
Puzzled, the minister shut the door.
"I have never told anyone this,

not even my daughter," said the man.


"But all of my life I have never

known how to pray.

At church I used to hear the pastor talk about prayer, but it went right over my head."


I abandoned any attempt at prayer,"

the old man continued, "

until one day four years ago, my best friend said to me, "Johnny, prayer is just a simple matter

of having a conversation with Jesus.



Here is what I suggest.

"Sit down in a chair;

place an empty chair in front of you,
and in faith see Jesus on the chair.


It's not spooky because he promised,

'I will be with you always'.
"Then just speak to him in the same way

you're doing with me right now."


"So, I tried it and I've liked it so much

that I do it a couple of hours every day.

I'm careful though. If my daughter saw me talking

to an empty chair, she'd either have a nervous breakdown or send me off to the funny farm."

The minister was deeply moved by the story and encouraged the old man to continue on the journey.
Then he prayed with him, anointed him with oil,

and returned to the church.


Two nights later the daughter called

to tell the minister that her daddy

had died that afternoon.
Did he die in peace?" he asked.


Yes, when I left the house about two o'clock,

he called me over to his bedside,

told me he loved me and kissed me on the cheek.
When I got back from the store an hour later,

I found him .


But there was something strange about his death. Apparently, just before Daddy died,

he leaned over and rested his head on the chair

beside the bed. What do you make of that?"


The minister wiped a tear from his eye and said,

"I wish we could all go like that."




Prayer is one of the best free gifts we receive.

I asked God for water, He gave me an ocean.*
I asked God for a flower, He gave me a garden.*
I asked God for a friend, He gave me all of YOU...
If God brings you to it, He will bring you through it.


Happy moments, praise God.
Difficult moments, seek God.
Quiet moments, worship God
Painful moments, trust God.
Every moment, thank God.

WatfordFC: That is so awesume.

Radiant Aunt: Your kind words mean alot, thank you

WatfordFC: Please know how much I feel for you, as my "mum" is also gone Have faith that one day your two souls will be together again, in heaven or wherever we go from here, as there is nothing stronger than love & love is for all eternity. I am sure that wherever your mum is, she is forever thinking of you too.....My thoughts and prayers are with you

srnity:

WatfordFC:

Let's pray for peace.

    Not major, just day surgery and about two hours of recovery then home.  Sinus problems for years and a huge battle with it for 18 months.  ;)  Full recovery takes about a week.  Mostly that's just cuz ya feel pretty yucky.  A speedy recovery would be nice  ;)

Groucho: Best of luck to ya Groucho on your surgery.. will be thinking of ya and hope you have a speedy recovery

ScarletRose:  Thanks.  A bit nervious but have heard only good things from people who have had the surgery.  And my ENT (ear nose throat) specialist is one of the best around.  She knows her stuff.  ;)

Groucho: My dad goes into hospital tomorrow too, having an endoscopy before having major surgery on 2 anurisms that are in his aorta. Take care Groucho,. i am sure all will go well

Groucho: My daughter has had 4 operations on her nose now, has she has a differential in width in each nostril

Groucho:Take care Mr.Groucho and know that things will be better once you are healed!
You will be in my thoughts and prayers as will Watford's Dad! You guys get well and stay that way!!

Dolittle: Thank you

Groucho: May you feel a thousand times better soon.
WatfordFC wishing all the best for your dad and keeping him and your family in my thoughts and prayers.

toddioprod: Absolutely, i couldnt agree with you more. It is such a shame that not all people think that way though.

volant: Thank you very much. My dad went in at 3pm today, still waiting to here from the hospital.

Dad is now at home, and is fine, took no pain relief and his endoscopy was clear. So now waiting for the call to go back in to have his major op.

volant:  Thanks.  Am home now.  Surgery went very well.  Was a bit rough coming out of the anesthesia but so far I'm doing well.  The pain drug works well so that's a God send.  This will help my overall health so much. I've been sick for well over a year.  I've heard nothing but good about this procedure.

Thanks to everyone for their thoughts and prayers.  My wife says I look like I got run over by a mac truck but I don't feel that way at all.  I suppose the Hydrocodone and APAP has something to do with that. 

Blessings to all.

WatfordFC:  My thoughts and prayers are with you too.  

Groucho: that hydrocodone works wonders.. they recently had me on that for that cough I had when everything else had kicked in.

Groucho: Glad you feel like being up and around. Pray you heal fast and have many days, months, years of feeling chipper!!

Dolittle:  Thanks.  Drugs make me a bit dizzy (more than normal  ;)  and sick to my stomach now. Not sure why as I felt better earlier.  Not liking that.  But my right side is totally open.  I can breath!  Left side swollen shut.  The right may do that too but it's all temporary.  Medicine is amzazing, what they can do.  They go up the nose with a little camera and a light and a scraper.  yuck.  No pain, no gain I guess.  ;)

Groucho: I am glad everything went well for you. The same with my dad too, his prostate is clear, which means they can now operate on his aorta.

WatfordFC:  Will keep your dad in my prayers.
