Prayer Requests

Praying for the victims and families of those killed this week in Thousand Oaks. Praying that others who need help to keep them from committing these atrocities get what they need. Asking for God's help in figuring out what to do next.

Praying for the safety of those caught up in the wildfires sweeping through California. And, praying for the firefighters and their families - that they make it home safely.
 
I'm starting a daily practice of intentional prayer for those beyond my local circle and also beyond the Forum - as I pray for you guys all the time. :) I just feel like the World needs it; my country needs it. I know that I need it. It's what I "can" do right now to help others while I try to figure out what else I can do to help and/or God gives me direction.

So, today, I'm praying, still, for those in CA dealing with the fires. So many lives have been lost and so much effort exerted to help those in harm's way. I saw a news clip of a dog that had been caught up in the fires and he appeared so bewildered. His family was not there, his coat was scorched and dusty with soot, his poor head was hanging so low and his eyes were the sad windows to his poor little soul. My heart broke.

I'm also still praying for folks from Thousand Oaks who are dealing with the loss of life/family/friends along with loss due to the fires. Oh my goodness, may God cover them with extra-special Grace at this time.

I'm also praying for first responders, the military, those in the medical field, and those who work with agencies such as the Red Cross, churches, and government organizations who rush in to protect/assist when crises arise. It's amazing that helpers run into the fire, into the shooting, into the bombing, into the "whatever fray" that beckons them to help the collective "us" on the planet. I am forever grateful and pray so very hard for them and their bravery and safety with heart-felt thanksgiving. And, for those who come in during/after the terror and/or catastrophe to help others get through the next day and into the next week in getting their lives back on track. My church has a disaster team that goes into disaster areas to help out with meals, laundry, prayer, encouragement, clothing, etc...

May God bless, protect and cover them all.
 
Praying for those who have had their lives turned upside down due to the CA fires and hurricane Michael. I can't even imagine the depth and breadth of loss, grief, trauma, fear, and anxiety they are dealing with. I pray that their hearts are soothed and strengthened by Grace, and that their communities continue to reach out and reach in to help them move forward one day/one hour at a time. My heart aches for them.

Praying for our military and first responders who run toward danger each and every day so that we might be safer in living our lives. I pray that they each get home safely today and every day. I'm so very grateful for them.

Praying for each of us today, that we may have strength, courage, faith, joy, love, kindness, compassion, healing and light in our lives.
 
According to my latest bloodwork, I have stage 3 kidney disease. Now I have to drink 3 quarts of water a day. I have to cut back on protein, potassium and salt, phosphorous too. I have to cut back on dairy, meat, beans, whole wheat products, etc. In other words, I have to change around my whole diet! UGH! Prayers more than welcome.

I am not Diabetic. My blood pressure and cholesterol are OK. So this is weird.
