edited September 18 in Health and Weight Loss
I need to ask for your prayers concerning my son Alex. It's nothing terminal but we found out something about him yesterday that kind of brought us a shock. I do not want to get into what it is right now. We just need prayer for his healing, for wisdom on how to handle the situation and for patience to get through it.
Maybe one day I will share it with you. Hopefully I will share it because he has been healed! That would be awesome! I know God is good and He has a special place in His heart for children, so it will be well. It just may take some time.
Thanks for listening and for your prayers. You guys are a good support team in more ways than just weight loss.
Thanks,
Melissa

    Lord I thank you for everything you do in our lives. I thank you for the wisdom you give us when we ask and expect. Thank you for your gentleness and kindness. You know the situation this boy is in Lord. I ask that you go into his heart and start working on him. I ask that he be able to discern you. Lord I ask that you give your wisdom and guidance to his parents. Make them clean vessels so they can put on you and handle the situation out of disciplining love. Let their son know they are sincere and loving when they talk with him. Thank for hearing our prayers Lord. Let us glorify you in everything we do. In your precious name Jesus, Amen

    Lord, we all agree together that You are a good and faithful God. we know that You are the great physician and that all wisdom comes from You. We ask Lord that You protect Alex and be with Him during this time. Comfort him and his family and give them peace during this stressful time. We love You Lord and we put this is Your hands. In our understanding we ask that You heal Alex, but ultimately we know that Your ways are far above and beyond our ways. You are in control and whatever comes, we pray that You will be praised and glorified through this trial. We put our hope and our trust in You. in the name of Jesus we pray, Amen!

    Alex, as well as your family, is on my list.

    "Because of the Lord's great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail, They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. I say to myself, "The Lord is my portion." therefore I will wait for him. The Lord is good to those whos hope is in him, to the one who seeks him;" Lam.3:22-25

    Matthew 4:23–24 Jesus healed every disease
    23[Jesus] went throughout all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues
    and proclaiming the gospel of the kingdom and healing every disease
    and every affliction among the people. 24So his fame spread
    throughout all Syria, and they brought him all the sick, those afflicted
    with various diseases and pains, those oppressed by demons, epileptics,
    and paralytics, and he healed them.

    we are here praying for you and your family

    I'm sorry you've been given a shock, but if you lean on God and not your own understanding, he will bring you through this with strength that you never knew you had.
    I'll pray now.

    "Dear Heavenly father we come together in agreement over this precious little boy, that you would strengthen his body and heal him. Lord, you know what is wrong and what healing he needs, and I ask that you would lay your hand apon him and heal him. Give strength to his family, wisdom to deal with everything that has come their way, and peace that goes beyond all understanding. In Jesus name, Amen."

    So now we've got to have faith! =o)

    God does not send us despair in order to kill us; he
    sends it in order to awaken us to new life.

    Our family will keep your family in our prayers.

    Have a blessed day

    Carmen
