The power of prayer...

I've often wondered why we pray for what we want rather than only God's will. We had a visiting minister in church today and he put it this way...God has a plan, but He wants us to pray (ask) so we can see His answer to our prayer. Makes sense this way. I'm not really trying to tell Him what to do. I am allowing Him to show his grace.
Please pray for a friend of mine. Her name is Joan. She is a 4 1/2 year survivor. At her most recent visit, they found a "cyst." It is not palpable, but it is visible on ultrasound. She is having it biopsied tomorrow at 12 noon. Her oncologist thinks it is just a cyst, but wants to be safe. Keep her in mind for me please. Thank you.

Lord, I wait upon You this day. I put my
hope in Your Word and ask that You would
fill me afresh with Your Holy Spirit and wash
away all my anxiety and doubt. Shine Your
spotlight into the dark corner of my soul that
needs to be exposed. I know You are a good
God and love me endless. Help me to remember
you are always walking with me and to trust your
hand to help lead me threw and see the light,
One step at a time.Your name I pray, Amen

Please all you lovely ladies offer up a prayer for a dear lady I met today "Brenda". She is a patient in the hospital where I work and is suffering so.....I spoke with her and got her permission to ask you ladies to pray for her. She has breast cancer and has become quite ill from mismanagement of her care and the devastating side effects of her treatments both chemo and rads.Please pray for her.......she was a kindergarten teacher before she got sick last March and is in very much need of our prayers and support. I told her about this web site......which she had heard of but she stated she never knew what it was all for......I told her support, venting, sharing, getting questions answered....and anything else she might need from a sister......Thank you Elaine

The Lord Himself watches over you!
The Lord stands beside you as your protective
shade.
The sun will not hurt you by day,
nor the moon by night.
The Lord keeps you from all evil
and preserves your life.
The Lord keeps watch over you as
you come and go,
both now and forever. Psalm 121: 5-8

Father in heaven, Thank You for the life You have given me,
and the eternal life promised through Your Son, Jesus Christ.
Take my disease away, O God, and draw it to Yourself along
with my sins, my worries, and my fears, Lord if You want me to
live, help me learn what I can do to help You bring healing in
my body. Bless and make wise my doctors and all who tend to
my needs at this difficult time in my life. In Jesus' name, amen.

I'll be praying for Joannie and Brenda.
This BEAST has to be stopped.....it's everywhere.....all around me, every time I turn around there's a new patient at the cancer center. The other day there were 4 new patients for rads. Two with prostate cancer, one with lung cancer and one with breast cancer. It just makes me wanna cry......don't know if I notice it more now or there are just more and more people being diagnosed.
love you all........

O God, Please take my weary soul, transform it, and renew
the right spirit within me. Take my pain and the tiredness and
turn them into pleasure and joy. Remind me of the wisdom of
Your word, and revive me with the energy of Your love. You are
the reason in this world. Thank you for Your cool water on my
parched soul. Bless all my wonderful friends here and help them
to see the rainbow even in the storm. Help those that need your
comfort threw their pain. You are a wonderful God, Thank You for
helping all to see Your light. In Christ I pray. AMEN

God is love, God is peace and God is our strongest ceherence. When it comes to Him, we, no matter if we suffer or if we are weak, are all the same. In His light of hope we shine and rise and gain new strength to live one day after another until we are fully recovered.
In this state of life it is our strength of belief in God that keeps us alive. The believing of Him in our lives and souls gives us tremendous power and will to keep our heads held high. I will pray for you all, as I am praying for those who I have lost on cancer. I will pray for every single soul that suffers from breast cancer in this forum every night before I face incapability of sleeping I will close my eyes, inwardly look at Him and pray for our souls to be saved and our bodies to be healed.
I wish you all the best and please, in your weakest moments of your life remember one thing you are never alone, He is always at your side and our love and blessings and prayers are too.

We serve an AWESOME God! Hurray for Joanie and Brenda.
Here's prayers going up for you, Estepp. Think about where you were emotionally one year ago. He brought you through - Hallelujah!
Just heard on the news that Farrah Fawcett has died from her BC. My prayer is that she was a believer and is now with the Master.

Hi ladies.....just wanted to check in to see how everyone is doing. To all that need them....you are in my prayers. I don't have to name them individually because God already knows our cares......but I will be praying for you.
I have 3 more rads tx's to go now. One tomorrow and two next week. I'm so happy to almost be done with them.
I have a prayer request. My daughter called me this morning and said the Health Dept had called her and said she had a bad pap smear. A few years ago before she had her two kids, she had to have a cone biopsy done because of a bad pap. I was with her and the Dr. said that part of her cervix was white and she was at risk of getting cervical cancer because she already had bad cells. He also told her she would never be able to have children........she has two........thank God. I love those grandbabies. I told her to call her Gyn and get in to see him soon......and let him figure out what to do as far as her abnormal pap test. It worries me......but God is in control......not me!
hugs and love to you all

You're right JO - colorectal cancer.
edit-sorry Genia didn't see your post. I am truly happy that you are almost done. Look forward to celebrating with you next week.
Prayers are going up for your DD that the pap smear will be only that, a bad pap smear but nothing more. I pray that the cells are no worse than they were years ago and will only need to be watched. We know we serve an awesome God and he is definitely in control. In His presence our fears will dwindle and doubts dissolved.

When my mind is troubled and I feel like giving up,
I turn to You and Your promises sing in me. I let
You calm my spirit, and bring me peace. I hold on to You.

Whether your pain is physical,emotional or spiritual, the
one constant is: It hurts. Pain takes over and creates a
bleeding spirit.Your pain is so bad sometimes that you
cry out to the Lord,"Help me, Help me!"
God hears your cries, and He is here with you right now.
He aches with you and aches for you. Jesus is the God of
healing and hope. When you can barely move forward, He
is there, walking with you, holding you. He is the relief to
a life of pain, and is leading you to His healing tonic of love.

Dear Lord Jesus, I thank you for this day that you have brought us through. Today you watched over us with your loving kindness, protecting us even though we knew not of any danger. We don't know Lord what awaits us at any point but we know that with you in our lives, as long as we trust in you and follow you we will conquer all adversity. You are truly an awesome God and I praise and worship your very name. Amen.

I well remember them, and my soul is downcast within
me. Yet this I call to mind and therefore I have hope:
Because of the Lord's great love we are not consumed
for his compassion's never fail. They are new every
morning; great is your faithfulness, I say to myself, "The
Lord is a portion; therefore I will wait for Him." Lamentation 3: 20-24
