PRAY FOR ME?

Yah .. so no one ever complains about radiation.   But I am.  The radiation is making it hard for me to function (fatigue, sore). I so need prayer. Bill read this prayer to me this morning from our favorite book by Beth Moore (called "Praying God's Word"):
Father God, I ask You to lead me when I'm blinded by ways I have not known, along unfamiliar paths please guide me; Lord, turn the darkness into light before me and make the rough places smooth. I pray these are the things You will do; I know You will not forsake me.   (Isaiah 42:16)
When I'm sick I feel forsaken and scared ... but The Word of God tells me that that's a lie I shouldn't believe. Amen.

  1. Well Diane it has been awhile since I have posted a comment. Haven't been spending a lot of time on the PC lately. But this morning I am back. After reading your recent posts it is good to see you still have your sense of humor and your words express your radiation journey in a way that only you could do. They always bring a smile to my face. I am sending a writing that was given to us by a friend and I hope it lifts your spirit to a high level as you continue with the daily radiation.
    On the Wings of Prayer
    Just close your eyes and open your heart. And feel your worries and cares depart. Just yield yourself to the Father above And let him hold you secure in His love. For life on earth grows more involved With endless problems that can't be solved But God only asks us to do our best Then he will "take over" and finish the rest. So when you are tired, discouraged and blue There's always one door that is open to you And that is the door to "The House of Prayer" And you'll find God waiting to meet you there And the "House of Prayer" is no further away Than the quiet spot where you kneel and pray For the heart is a temple when God is there As we place ourselves in His loving care And he hears every prayer and answers each one When we pray in His name "Thy Will Be Done" And the burdens that seemed too heavy to bear Are lifted away on "The Wings of Prayer"
    Just know you are in our thoughts and prayers and we send hugs and our love to you and Bill too.
