Sunday Update

Jim had a rough night with tummy aches and headaches thru the night. He did not sleep well at all and then slept a majority of the day today. He perked up after the dinner hour after some delicious BLT's!

He is starting to get antsy, wanting to get out some, so please pray for patience for Jim. Our goal is to try and make it to church in a few weeks, so we'll see how things go between now and then.

Thanks for the continued prayers, meals, cards, calls and texts.

Col 1:11
We also pray that you will be strengthened with his glorious power so that you will have all the patience and endurance you need.

PHILIPPIAN 4:8 FINALLY, BRETHREN, WHATSOEVER THINGS ARE TRUE, WHATSOEVER THINGS ARE HONEST, WHATSOEVER THINGS ARE JUST, WHOSOEVER THINGS ARE PURE, WHATSOEVER THINGS ARE LOVELY, WHATSOEVER THINGS ARE OF GOOD REPORT;IF THERE BE ANY VIRTUE, & IF THERE BE ANY PRAISE, THINK ON THESE THINGS.

    HEAVENLY FATHER,

  3. Hey God,
    Thank you for all you've done in and with Jim and his family. Lord I ask you to give him a healthy dose of patience. I can only imagine how difficult it must be for Jim to be doing the limited things he is, but Lord, we need him back and I ask you to give him the patience he needs to deal with the situation he is in. Lord I ask you to be with his family, pull them close and hold them with your loving arms Lord. Please continue to be with Jim as he progresses through the stages he needs to go through to return to us Lord. God I ask you to hold Jim in your lap and just love on him for a while. What a blessing he has been for all of us Lord, but I ask you to give him a special amount of your love when he needs it Lord. You created him and know him better than all of us, so I ask you to help him through this time of need. Lord he has glorified your Holy name through all of this and I ask you to continue to be with him so he can continue to do so Lord.
    God we thank you for all you've done, and continue to do, and we ask these things of you today in Jesus name,
    Amen
