    Great faith is not the faith that walks always

    in the light and never knows no darkness, But

    the faith that is preserves in spite of God's

    seeming silences, and that faith will most

    certainly and surely get its reward.

    "For I know the plans I have for you," declares

    the Lord, " Plans to prosper you and not to harm

    you, Plans to give you hope for a future. Then

    you will call upon me and come pray to me,

    And I will listen to you. You will seek me and

    find me when you seek me with all of your heart.

    I will be found by you. Jeremiah 29: 11-14

    O God, Please take my weary soul and transform it,

    and renew a right spirit within me. Take my pain

    and tiredness and turn them into pleasure and joy.

    Remind me of the wisdom of Your word, and revive

    me with energy of Your love. You are the reason in

    this world. Thank You for Your cool water on my

    parched soul. In Your precious name. Amen

    O Lord, I want to thank you for all the wonderful sisters we

    have on this power of prayer. Please comfort all people in

    need or having a hard week. Help them to feel Your Holy

    Spirit around them and angels to comfort them. You know

    their wants and needs, and every tear they cry. Help them

    see the light at the end of the tunnel. And when we all see

    You someday, we will all be healed. I love You Lord and thank

    You for the many blessing You have given, Estepp, Genia, EWB,

    Dear Heavenly Father:  Thank You for everything You have done for us, thank You for everything You do for us and thank You for everything You will do for us.  Thank you for another day. Thank You for being with Laura as she went through her surgery.  There are many unspoken requests, Lord.  You know our hearts and our needs.  Please be with us as we go through our daily lives.  Let us shine for You.  Let us be the Bible that may be the only one read by others.  Let us put on Your armour as we fight whatever battles are ahead for us.  Please watch over all my sisters on this website.  Thank you for the outpouring of love that is given here.

    I ask for all of this in You precious Son, Jesus.  Amen

    Remember what Christ taught and let His

    words enrich your lives and make you wise;

    Teach them to each other and sing them out

    in psalms and spiritual songs, singing to the

    Lord with thankful hearts. Colossians 3:16 TLB

    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 some-

    times 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.

    Oh Genia.  Dear Lord please send light to all the dark places in Genia's life, fill it up with hope and love, help her to know she is not alone through any of this. Help Genia to keep her faith in herself, in You, in the doctors and the treatments. I pray you find a special place full of calm, peace, serenity, health, healing and love. Surround Genia with warm loving arms and guide her to better days, happy days.

    These troubles and sufferings of ours are, after all

    quite small and won't last very long.

    Yet this short time of distress will result in God's

    richest blessing upon us forever and ever.

    I believe in Angels and I truly believe that God is watching over me. I also believe in the power of prayer. Although God does not always answer our prayers the way we want. When I say my prayers I always say a special pray for all my "BCO" friends.

    This is one of my favorite prayer:

    God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change...Courage to change the things I ca, and wisdom to know the difference.

    I got an email that was a prayer for God to bless the computer. Sounds odd, but for me it hit home. My family is so far apart that communicating by email and facebook is so great. I also really enjoy all my BCO friends.

    Dear Heavenly Father, watch over all the ladies on this site and bless them. Amen
