Merry Christmas, Eve!!! Praising God for rescuing me from this body of death 17 years ago…for His mercy and everlasting love and grace…for the unspeakably generous gift of His son…and all the many gifts He’s given to me during my lifetime. Rejoicing with you on this Holy Day!
Prayer need: A childhood friend of my husband (L) and her husband (J) live in Atlanta. Her father, a widow, lives in our neighborhood in the continuum-of-care retirement village (they have everything from independent apartments to hospice). He is 83 and was moved to hospice a couple of days ago. Doctors said it could be two days or two weeks. L & J have two daughters, ages 19 & 11, both of whom are very close to dying Grandpa. The 11 year old (K) spent most of the day yesterday at our house, playing with Becca, which went really well as they both love gymnastics. K is having a very hard time with losing her grandpa. L & J are estranged from his parents, so her parents are the only grandparents the kids have really known. Please pray for comfort for the whole family during this difficult time, especially young K.
Rejoicing! My daughter called last night and asked if I would like to spend the night tonight so that I could be with them on Christmas morning. This will be my first time having a Christmas morning with family in many years. This, this is what I was longing for. I have tears in my eyes as I type.
You mentioned recently something about wanting to see God move in your family, or for reconciliation, or something along those lines (I forget the words), & have been praying that for you.
Also have been praying for reconciliation & deliverance & whatever else is needed for some other families represented on this blog.
Please pray for Chrissy. She is here to spend Christmas Eve & much of Christmas Day with us. A bit after dinner, she felt really tired, & took a nap. Now she is getting a fever, & she is throwing up as I write this. 😦 Please pray whatever it is will pass quickly, & not pass on to the rest of us. (Especially not to Lee, who has to work no matter what on Saturday.)
One more request to share. I heard via Facebook that a house my brother owns but has rented out to an elderly couple for about ten years, burned to the ground last night. My brother was fully insured, but the couple was not and now needs a new place to live. Please pray they’d find something suitable quickly.

Ann – I prayed for comfort for the granddaughters, & I also prayed for reconciliation with the husband’s parents.

Karen O: Prayers said for your family. It’s awful to be sick at Christmas…I do hope no one else succumbs to the dreaded VV.
Jo: So happy for you! May your holiday be all you are hoping it will be…
