Hello Prayer Warriors.

I haven't been here in a while due to moving back to my hometown. I have no christian support here, like I did back in Idaho and the church that i was really starting to like back there doesn't have a nearby branch here in Pa. The nearest one is 3 hours away . I can feel myself being disconnected from that fellowship and comforting 'family' support and it's scary.

Also, I've posted something in another area on here that I desperately need prayers for as well: http://www.3fatchicks.com/forum/gene...ml#post3531854 Sorry for the length of the post.

I'm trying to atleast find a good study bible that I can read from, but all the ones at bookstores are covered in the plastic wrapping so I can't see inside and I don't want to pay 30+ dollars for something that I don't know will work for me. I'm looking for an easily comprehensive NIV women's study bible. Does anyone have any good suggestions?

I am grateful for this thread and all the wonderful caring people on it who are always willing to help one another and pray for others' needs.

Thank you all!

HI EVE ~ glad to have you back here; we remembered that you said that you would be moving back home and were just waiting to hear from you again. Have sent up prayers for you & yours all along; and will gladly continue to send up more too ...


PS ~ I left a tiny message for you on your other thread as well ...

My SIL (Denise) came by today to tell us that the heart specialists think the 3-way surgery would be too risky for our BIL, TOM M. -- so they now want to do another CAT SCAN to see if there is another vein available that they could use to fix that aneurysm by itself. Even the Cat Scan is risky in this kind of situation, so I know the Denise would appreciate prayers that all goes well with that test. TOM is having trouble eating these days; seems some foods don't taste the same to him anymore and so he needs help with that too, I think ... THANKS SO MUCH!

My biopsy came back negative so I don't have cancer, thanks for the prayers

Prayers sent up for all requested.

[YA-HOO! From down in Texas! So happy for you that you came back negative!
Eve try some resale shops for Bible Studies and books to read can find some good ones for 3 dollars or less!
I try to look for something good in people that I really don't take a cotton too and Eve I find that they really are not as bad as I thought. Our sermon this morning was on God uses all kinds of people to serve his purpose even people we don't take a cotton too. I have also found when you are down the one person you would never in your life dream of helping you will be there for you.
I too, can not find a church around here that walks the talk , so I just pray and sing to my Father and don't worry about it . He knows I love him and I find ways serve him through helping other people when I can. I find it a privilege to serve him in this way. God loves you Eve and all . Just read your post. Please look for the good in people, not what they look like, or their past,for God sent them in our lives for a reason.

Prayers for Tom & Denise and you Rosebud.

MICHELLE ~ PTL, we are so glad the results came out good for you -- just charge on, honey ...


THANKS FOR THE PRAYERS everyone ...

I have a prayer request for my family, my father, sisters, and brother. MY mother passed on to heaven last tuesday. We all miss her. I am sure she is in heaven, I am Christian so was my mother. I pretty sure my dad is, and i believe he knows she's in heaven. He has dementia and is 83 years old so it's hard for him. My sister Yvonne is Christian but i am worried about my other sister and brother.
I am asking for prayers to help all of us heal, I know i will always miss her but knowing she is in heaven helps a lot. Hopefully with enough prayers the rest of my family will know this too. Also prayers for all of us to stay strong would be appreciated. I miss her so MUCH!
thanks for reading,
Anita
PS i will pray for those that requested it.
God bless you all

ANITA ~ I would like to reassure you that your mother is indeed in heaven where she is well, and in no pain whatsoever; she is also filled and surrounded by GOD's perfect love and all His Angels; plus her loved ones who have gone on before her (her parents & siblings, etc). I am sending up prayers for you all -- as you learn to adjust to life here without your mother's presence. I know that you will feel comforted to know that your mom is A-OK.

I know how you feel; our mother passed away in 1993 and she was a Christian too. Not long after that, I was blessed with a dream-vision where my mother came to show me where she was. She showed me a beautiful place that had much meaning to her and some to me; plus there was no doubt it had to be in another realm becuz the walls were imbedded with all kinds of gems (diamonds, rubies, emeralds, etc) and the ornate roof was trimmed with gold and silver. Only in heaven could such a place exist. Also, we could travel around there -- just by thinking of where we wanted to go.

She told me that she could only stay a few minutes but wanted to tell me something; and that was to show me where she was and that place was indeed heaven. It was so vivid and in color too; therefore I recall it just as if it was yesterday. It also had many elements that resemble earth so that it isn't totally foreign to us; but it has many more wonderful blessings that we can only imagine.

Since my mother's passing all of my siblings have come to a deeper spiritual walk with GOD; and we are so grateful for that. I will pray the same for your siblings so that they too can be comforted with GOD's perfect peace. I hope this helps you feel better ...

Thank you Justwant2Bhealthy, I appreciate the prayer!

UPDATE ~ TOM M. will be having his CAT SCAN this Tuesday, Nov 2/10. At that time, the specialists will decide if there is another vein that they could use to remove the aneurysm or not; depending on a few things, they may go ahead and operate right away or not. It all depends on what they find at the time. His wife (Denise) called; and I know they would appreciate your prayers on this matter; and for safe travel as well ... thanks so much!

Praying Rosebud.

Let's just pray for each other , love all of you!

Anita I am so sorry I did not see your request for prayer. Mothers are so special, I am so sorry for your loss. My Mother passed away when I was 19, I still miss her and today I still remember our precious moments, I call them precious gifts from God.
I am so sick with a bad chest and head cold today. No sleep last night ect... so this is going to be short my eyes feel like someone has been shooting pool with them. Y'all have a good day.

BOOTSIE ~ sent up prayers for you that you are healed of that bad cold ASAP; and whole once again ... in JESUS' name we ask and thank you, dear Father ... Amen & Amen.
