    Good evening prayer sisters,

    My mother was having irritation in her female privates and she went to the doctor.  Several years ago she was diagnosed with Vulval lichen sclerosus and there is no cure but it can be kept under control with steroid creams.  It is more common in older women.  So she thought it had flaired up again.  The doctor found a dime size leison on her vulva.  My sister saw it and said that it is real red and with a lighter colored center.  The doc did a biopsy ASAP....and did not say weather it look suspicious or not.  They gave her an appt to come back on Sept 10th for results....yeah, 2 whole weeks!!!...I have plans to go for a visit Labor day weekend and would be driving back home on the 9th but if they have not heard the results before my visit ends then I will stay and go to the doctor with my mother to get the results. 

    I am asking for prayers that the lesion biopsy will be negative of any cancer and that my mother will not have to wait 2 weeks for the results.  I did tell my sister to try calling them next week and to keep bugging them because most times those results come in but they make you wait...

    Thanks for your prayers for my mother

    In Christ Love

    Linda

    Lord, I have some huge needs, I'm in want not only for

    my physical well being, but for relief from my relentless

    amounts of stress I am forced to cope with. I don't see

    how it is possible for my hardships to be overcome.

    Everything seems to be on overload.

     Does anyone care about what I am going through?

    There must be someone. I know You do, Lord. But

    I ask for Your assurance that You are here, Working

    and helping me through all these trails. Please

    minister to me, I pray, Meet my needs. Encourage my

    soul. Speak to me Lord, and shower me with Your care. Amen

    I am your refuge, My dear one, I will provide for you each day.

    Simply trust in Me. i see your heart and hear your cries. I

    will help you through these troublesome times. In order for

    Me to do so, you must first determined to seek first My

    kingdom and My righteousness. See the birds outside your

    window? I tend to them, And I certainly look after you. Give

    me your worries and troubles to Me, For I care for you.

    I love you me Child, Your Heavenly Father

    Dear Debbie

    I am so sorry about your stress and pain, I think stress is worse than the cancer some days.

    I am praying the rest of the day for your intentions.

    Please share how else we can help, what kind of stress do you need help with, stress from pain, BC, or just in general.

    I want to help in any way I can.

    Dear Lord Please help Debbie today let her lean into your light and gentle peace, please help guide her to her healing.

    Amen!

    Linda - thoughts and prayers ongoing for your mom, your sister and you to be able to withstand the wait for results.  Prayers that the lesions will prove to be something treatable.

    Foots - my dear sister, you are always in our hearts.  Reach out anytime and we will be there for you.  Much love.

    Hi to all my prayer warrior sisters here.  You are all so appreciated.

    Will keep both of them in prayer JO.  God does not lead us down paths with no opening at the other end.  He always provides a way out.  He gave this young man 9 years longer than expected because he had a testimony.  This is just another twist in the road that our Father will use to further his kingdom.  Your friend and his wife is the conduit for that plan.

    We thank you Lord Jesus for what you have done through your children and all the lives that have been touched and won.  We ask that you continue to lead this couple and let them feel the power of the Holy Spirit that lives within.  We ask for them to feel a peace that can only come from dependence on you, our Father.

    In the name of your son, Jesus Christ, Amen.

    Ladies would you add me to your prayers? I am short of breath some now so started back on oxygen when needed. I also batle a cough when I am up not when resting sleeping. I had it for almost two years it got better but now back in past few months. Cough makes you gag at times and sometimes wet myself no fun. I am believing Gods word for my healing. In his time I know.

    Dear Lord Jesus, I lift kbugmom up to you.  Hold her in your loving arms quieting her fears and giving her the knowledge of your love.  Heal her lungs dear Jesus so she is relieved from the need for supplemental oxygen and heal whatever is ailing her to make her cough.  We know that you can do all things Lord and you have told us to ask so I am interceding for my sister and asking on her behalf. 

    You are a wonderful, kind and awesome God, Lord Jesus and I thank you, again, for being a part - the most important part - of our lives.

    In your name, Amen

    Lord, I send up prayers for the family of Sen. Ted Kennedy as they say farewell.  Please be with them and all they love and who love them.  Touch all their hearts and let them remember how you have held them in your loving arms throughout the years.  I pray that any who do not know you intimately will feel your presence and turn to you now.

    In the precious name of Jesus, I pray, Amen.

    Debbie,

    I took Catherine some printouts,info on IDC and most were from BreastCancer.org....I even printed out a discussion from some of our sisters on IDC and radiation.  Catherine was so happy to get the info to read.  She was going to have surgery on Monday but after having an EKG the surgery was cancelled because there is an issue with her heart that needs attention.  I was glad that her breast surgery is not Monday, I just felt she needed time to educate herself on IDC and the treatments.  I hated to hear about her heart issue but glad she has some time....Her husband died almost 2 years ago with cancer.  She feels alone even though she has very supportive children...I told her that she is never alone....I am just down the road....and God is always with us 24/7....Praise Him
