Prayer Requests 9-1-23

It’s Friday, so please remember to pray for Mumsee, Mike, and the nestlings.

Anyone else have something to share?

Psalm 50

A psalm of Asaph.

1 The Mighty One, God, the Lord,
    speaks and summons the earth
    from the rising of the sun to where it sets.
2 From Zion, perfect in beauty,
    God shines forth.
3 Our God comes
    and will not be silent;
a fire devours before him,
    and around him a tempest rages.
4 He summons the heavens above,
    and the earth, that he may judge his people:
5 “Gather to me this consecrated people,
    who made a covenant with me by sacrifice.”
6 And the heavens proclaim his righteousness,
    for he is a God of justice.

7 “Listen, my people, and I will speak;
    I will testify against you, Israel:
    I am God, your God.
8 I bring no charges against you concerning your sacrifices
    or concerning your burnt offerings, which are ever before me.
9 I have no need of a bull from your stall
    or of goats from your pens,
10 for every animal of the forest is mine,
    and the cattle on a thousand hills.
11 I know every bird in the mountains,
    and the insects in the fields are mine.
12 If I were hungry I would not tell you,
    for the world is mine, and all that is in it.
13 Do I eat the flesh of bulls
    or drink the blood of goats?

14 “Sacrifice thank offerings to God,
    fulfill your vows to the Most High,
15 and call on me in the day of trouble;
    I will deliver you, and you will honor me.”

16 But to the wicked person, God says:

“What right have you to recite my laws
    or take my covenant on your lips?
17 You hate my instruction
    and cast my words behind you.
18 When you see a thief, you join with him;
    you throw in your lot with adulterers.
19 You use your mouth for evil
    and harness your tongue to deceit.
20 You sit and testify against your brother
    and slander your own mother’s son.
21 When you did these things and I kept silent,
    you thought I was exactly like you.
   But I now arraign you
    and set my accusations before you.

22 “Consider this, you who forget God,
    or I will tear you to pieces, with no one to rescue you:
23 Those who sacrifice thank offerings honor me,
    and to the blameless I will show my salvation.”

  1. Prayers for AJ.

    Praises that Kizzie got the faucet in!

    Please pray for my cousin, J, who is married and has a 7 y/o son. She had a brain aneurysm and assuming she survives, she will have to learn to talk again.

    I have a mammogram and ultrasound this month so please pray nothing new shows up.

    Thank you for praying.

  2. KJ’s doctor and case manager were back in the office yesterday, and were shocked at the limit of paid meds that the covering doctor had prescribed the day before. They immediately sent a new prescription to the pharmacy that will get KJ at least through the weekend. KJ has an appointment with the doctor today and a bit topic will be pain management and the road map for getting off the strong stuff.

    Thanks again for praying.

  4. Brain aneurisms: the guy husband was visiting yesterday, while the children did some yard work and fall cleanup for the guy and his wife, had a brain aneurism in his thirties. He is mid seventies now. He has had a good life. He was one of the folk who helped with our extension and did odd jobs for us for years until his body gave out. He was a bus driver, worked at the mill, helps people all over and has connections everywhere. But it was touch and go initially.

  7. Thankful, Kevin, for the straightening out regarding the pain med. My friend, K, routinely takes some and as a former nurse always said that if the need is to cover legit pain that addiction is not the issue. It becomes an issue when the pain does not exist yet the person continues on the drug.
