I thank you all for praying for Sierra (my granddaughter) she went through surgery and just completed her first week of IV antibiotics this week. We have two more weeks to go. She is four and has cystic fibrosis. Please continue to pray for God's protection and healing for her and Dylan (her 6 yr old brother who also has cystic fibrosis). I am so thankful that they are in my life - they are such a joy for me.

Please pray for me at work along with my christian friends (Pete, Sheri and Charisse) who are also in leadership positions. It is difficult sometimes for us in leadership positions - espescially when we have to discipine staff, etc. I know they get very discouraged - I need prayer for wisdom and discernment and protection please. I am over a dept. going through an audit and that is difficult - I am trusting God for a good outcome in this. I have a supervisor that doesn't give me any feed back (doesn't even say hello to me) he has been there about 9 months - not overly friendly....pray that I will honor God by respecting his authority - I know God places people in authority over us and we need to respect that regardless of how things are...

Please pray for our church - I am praying for revival - growth both personally within our church but also that the Lord would bring new life to our church -

Last one of my sons is getting married in Sept. It is going to be expensive for us with have to rent 5 hotel rooms for 2 nights, pay for rehearsal dinner, tuxedo for my husband, dress for me, etc. I also am trying to be more disciplined with my diet and exercise - I dread dress shopping - I need to lose 30 lbs.

Another last...I would love to take Jeff, Sierra, Dylan my cousin Denise and maybe my mom on a little vacation this summer, we have all had such a difficult year. Please pray with me about that too (finances, etc.) It would be so nice to be able to have a break away from work and some time to relax and enjoy God's wonderful masterpiece (Lake Michigan is beautiful in the summer and two hours away).

Sheryl,

Hi, it is so good to see you on her tonight. I have missed you!

I am so glad little Sierra is doing well and I pray she will continue to. She has to be one tough little girl with all she has had to deal with. I know the hand of the Lord has to be upon her and His loving Hand is protecting her and her brother. I pray the Lord will raise them both up and heal their bodies and they will be sick no more!! I pray He will heal their emotions and hearts and continue to comfort them with and thru His love.

I do pray for you at your job and that God's favor will be mightily on you. I can understand why your boss is distant as you have the spirit of the Lord in you and more than likely, without doubt, he is not a born again believer. I do pray for him that the Lord would deal with his heart concerning you as well as the others and the women you have to deal with. I pray God will give you wisdom, knowledge and discernment as to what to do and say and at the right time and when to stay silent. I praise the Lord for the Christians that work with you and with all of you together, there is much greater power from the Lord than all the firey darts the enemy would try to throw at you and trip you up.

You are really going thru the refiner's fire sister and I know how difficult all these trials have to be on you but the Lord will bring you through and out when the timing is right. You are a very spiritually strong Christlike woman whom the Lord trusts you more than you trust yourself! Do you realize and see in your spirit being the tremendous responsiblity He has placed upon you? He knows you can and will make it thru with His help and guidance. I have no doubt He is going to bless you mightily for all the wonderful things you do for others and putting Him first in your life. You are a blessing sister!

I pray that you and your loved ones would be able to go on a vacation and for a well deserved one at that! God knows you need a break from the intense situation not only at work but at home as well.

I praise the Lord for the answers to your prayers and that He is not finished with you yet! What a wonderful testimony you have to share with others whom are down and out and discouraged for when we see one like you do all the things you do for others, forgetting yourself, you are truly an example of Christ's love for His children and answered prayers.

I pray Sheryl that you will get time for yourself and your needs for that is important to Christ. He wants you to have some time out---remember in the Word it says that Jesus had to get away and go into the mountains to be alone and to rest and pray? I believe I have that correctly.

I need prayer for my memory for much of it has left me (due to many medications and a mental breakdown) but I know the Lord is going to restore it back to me, some of it I want, some of it i don't!!

Please know dear sister that you are so special to the Lord, more than you can know and He has such a special plan and place for you in His body of believers.

I do pray for a revival in your church and that the Lord would touch hearts, lives and bring about a renewal of faith and restoration that only He can get the credit for. That is His desire also, that we all would be ressurected in our spirit beings, renewed by His word, restored in our souls and faith that we might share the gospel of Jesus Christ to those in the world whom are so needy of His presence and love.

Love you my sister in the LOrd!

Sheryl,

I also pray for the finances that you will need for your son's wedding and that your money will stretch supernaturally and that every need you will have to attend to will work out for your good and the glory and honor of the Lord in Jesus name!

May his wedding go smoothly and God will be in the center of it all and His hand guiding you and all the family. May His perfect will be done in the name of Jesus Christ.

May that day be a delightful day of celebration and both families will blend together for the good of your son and his new wife's marriage.

Lord, in your greatest mercy, please most graciously bless Crydeisha and her family in all of these endeavors. I ask of you in Jesus name I pray, Amen.

Hi Chris,

Thanks so much for your words of encouragement and prayers on my behalf. I cannot tell you how much I feel encouraged and blessed by your prayers. I feel as if everything is going to be ok after I read the prayers you lift up on my behalf.

May God richly bless you - your memory, your health, your family - especially your son's whom are called into ministry and need to turn back to the Lord. I also pray for "brat cat" (do you think he runs away because he is rebelling against his name ?) to return - I know that your kitty is important to you especially since you have to spend most of your time in the home - Lord you know how much joy Crystal's kitten brings her and we pray that he will return home. I hope Todd is doing better these days. I continue to pray for him too.

Thank you my dear friend for your prayers and encouragement. God has blessed me with your fellowship.
Sheryl
