Two Very Serious Prayer Needs in our Blog Community....

Hello Friends,

As I know that some of you are amazing

prayer warriors I am asking for your assistance

today.

The first situation is in the lives of Roger and Beth

from Beth's By Grace.  Roger is in the hospital 

with a major infection.  I'll copy and paste some

of Beth's post.  I hope she won't mind.....

"Hi everyone. 

Roger is STILL in the hospital...

this is early Thursday morning...

I'm getting ready to 

go to bed for a while. 

He is still suffering with 

cellulitis in his leg and 

still running a fever with  

nausea and major pain. 

He seems to be having the 

worst headache ever and getting 

very nauseated with that. 

He's on an IV with antibiotics and fluids. 

They're giving him some pretty strong

pain medicines as well.
He DOES show a marked improvement 

in the huge infection in his leg, 

however, so that is a praise, isn't it? "

Beth went on to say that Roger is seeing things

that aren't there and having some conversations

that just don't make sense.

So hard for a wife to bear.

This dear couple is in the midst of moving their family 

from one home to another.  They have been working

so hard and this complicates things.  Of course Roger's 

health is more important than the move but as you can

imagine the stress of it all must take its toll.

The second situation is from Marcia, at

Blessedmom's Simple Home.

This was her prayer request in her post yesterday:

" I'd like to ask you all to pray for my nephew, Jordan.
He's been serving his 2nd tour of duty in Afghanistan. 

There is no easy way to say this.
Yesterday, he stepped on an I.E.D. and lost both of his legs.
Now he's fighting for his life. 
 He is a wonderful young man, willingly serving our country.
He's also a husband, and father to a young son."

I cannot imagine the courage it

takes to put oneself in harm's way

every day as our military men and women do,

however, I am so grateful for them.

I wish these things never, ever happened!!

Both of these families are suffering so much

right now and I hope that you will join me

in prayer and by stopping by and offering 

words of encouragement.

Thank You!
