Prayer Requests 5-1-13

Who has a request or praise today?

And it’s Wednesday, so please remember to pray for Gambia and it’s workers. 🙂

Psalm 23

1 The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.

²He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.

³He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.

⁴Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

⁵Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

⁶Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.

I am working on finding the positives in life right now. As you know my humor is a bit twisted but I have found in the last week and a half I have slept better. First I am not listening for anyone leaving or coming into my house that shouldn’t be doing do and second, I took BG’s sound maker alarm clock and moved it to my room. I have a waterfall sound going and haven’t heard the garbage truck since. 😉

I know it isn’t much on the grand scale, but it is a work in progress.

It is an adjustment and it is good to know you can recognize some of the positives amidst the difficult situation…..when we sent out daughter away for a year, I thought I could never endure the pain…but, trusting the Lord had led us to the decision for the good of us all…we recognized there was no longer tension, strife, “listening” to things that go bump in the night…our Lord had given to us peace…not that we weren’t concerned for our girl…we knew she was being well cared for by devoted women called to minister to girls acting out as our daughter was doing…and in way we could not. The peace that returned to our home during that time was cherished. We did endure a few more years of pain and confusion after she returned then left again…but, the Lord saw us through those days…praying for you Kim…and for BG and her Daddy…for wisdom, protection and our Lord’s peace in the knowing you have turned it over to Him in trust…

It is coming up on the fiftieth anniversary of my aunt’s solo flight across the Pacific and there is a gathering to celebrate. We are hoping to attend. It is twelve hours from here and we have made arrangements to leave all of the children. The six boys with one couple and the five girls with another. Unfortunately, the six year old started coughing and dripping and complaining of a sore throat about three days ago. I confined him to his room in hope of keeping it confined, and he has been very amenable to the situation, highly unusual for him. Anyway, three or four others are now showing symptoms, so we need to decide whether or not to hand them off for a few days. Selfishly, the aunt and some of the other attenders are getting on in years and we have not seen some for decades. Thinking of others, both couples are older and with health problems of their own. But they won’t hesitate to take them, knowing we have not done anything like this in years. Prayer for wisdom and clear sight. Thanks.
