Prayer Requests 2-1-18

It’s Thursday, so don’t forget to pray for Jo, her students, and the people of PNG.

Anyone else?

Psalm 147:1-12

¹Praise the Lord.

How good it is to sing praises to our God,
how pleasant and fitting to praise him!

²The Lord builds up Jerusalem;
    he gathers the exiles of Israel.
³He heals the brokenhearted
    and binds up their wounds.
⁴He determines the number of the stars
    and calls them each by name.
⁵Great is our Lord and mighty in power;
    his understanding has no limit.
⁶The Lord sustains the humble
    but casts the wicked to the ground.

⁷Sing to the Lord with grateful praise;
make music to our God on the harp.

⁸He covers the sky with clouds;
    he supplies the earth with rain
    and makes grass grow on the hills.
⁹He provides food for the cattle
    and for the young ravens when they call.

¹⁰His pleasure is not in the strength of the horse,
nor his delight in the legs of the warrior;
¹¹the Lord delights in those who fear him,
who put their hope in his unfailing love.

¹²Extol the Lord, Jerusalem;
praise your God, Zion.

Today I have full-on cold symptoms, but my tooth is feeling better. Not 100% better, but I can touch my teeth together on that side now without saying “Ow!” Still a little sensitive, though. I am very grateful that the flare-up of pain that I had has subsided.

All of the dentists we have had have told all of our people that the best thing for wisdom teeth is warm salt water to reduce the discomfort prior to opportunity to have them out.

Please pray for a family for whom I’ve requested prayer before.

My brother and sister-in-law’s friend Jody, who died two years ago, left behind a husband and daughter, Randy and Tatyanna.

My SIL sent this email tonight:

Please pray for our friend Randy & his daughter Tatyanna. Randy was overcome by carbon monoxide poisoning tonight at his job. He was taken to [city] Hospital and he needs to be transferred to [another hospital 2 hours away]. It is too windy tonight for medlink to fly so they are currently getting an ambulance to take him to the [distant hospital].

We don’t have any more details right now on Randy’s condition. Tatyanna asked for prayers for him and I’m sure that poor girl could really use everyone’s prayers also.

Tatyanna was in high school when her mom died, and is in college now, about an hour from home and around three hours from the hospital her dad is being transported to.

Thank you.
