Armywifenmommy, as I just signed on I was going to post the same request, although I don't have anyone there. So sad. Puts some of our issues into perspective.
Dear Lord, Father in Heaven, I lift up all the families and friends of our soldiers in Fort Hood to you. We never understand why some have to leave us so early. We never understand how one can take the life of the innocent. Please let the families feel the love that can only come from your loving kindness. My prayer is also for those who are injured to call out to you and embrace your promises to your children. Their doctors will work to heal their bodies and we ask that you intercede to heal their minds. For all the people at Fort Hood dear Lord, take away their fear and help them to turn to you.
In the precious name of my savior, Christ Jesus, I ask. Amen

Dear God in heaven you are an awesome God, you are so good to us. You answer prayer, we just have to trust and obey. Lord, please be with and give strength and courage to all the people at Fort Hood today, all the families and friends. Please protect our troops in war with supernatural protection, give them strength, courage, and wisdom. Please help all the bc sisters with their treatments, tests, and surgeries they are going through. Please help my grandson stay drug free, for counseling and medications work. He says he will be a lifelong recovering addict. Lord help him stay sober all of his life, give him strength. He says it is tougher than tough and harder than hard but you mighty God are stronger than strong and wiser than wise. Guide us Lord and help us do your will. Use us Lord as you need us. I ask in Jesus name. Amen

Count it all when you fall into various trials,
knowing that the testing of your faith produces
patience's. But let patience have it's perfect work,
that you may be perfect and complete,
lacking nothing. James 1:2-4
Hear my cry, O God; Attend to my prayer.
From the end of the earth I will cry to You,
When my heart is overwhelmed;
Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.
For You have been a shelter for me,
A strong tower from the enemy.
I will abide in Your tabernacle forever;
I will trust in the shadow of Your wings. Psalm: 1-4

Father God, We don't want to take one step
without You, We reach up for Your hand and
ask that You lead us in Your way. Thank You
that no matter where we are right now, Even
if we have gotten off course, in this moment
as we put our hands in Yours. You will make
a path from where we need to be. And You will
lead us on it. I love that Your grace abounds us
in that way, Keep us on the path You have for us
and take us where You want us to go. " Cause me
to know the way in which I should walk, for I lift my
soul to You."(Psalm 143:8) I know that when we try
to run a race without You, We get off course. So we
commit this day to walk Your way. Thank You that even
if we become weak and stumble, You will help us to rise
again and continue on.Grant us grace to remain faithful
even in the face of pain and suffering.By the power of the
Holy Spirit, who dwells within us, focus our minds upon
victory through Jesus Christ, Our Lord. We ask that You
watch and help our wonderful friends Genia, Patoo, Jo,
Armywifenmommy, kmccaw423, Saint, Seyla, mmm5,
Mary, Spar, deborye, and other here on this line, In need
of Your comfort and peace. We love You Lord and thank
You for all the many blessing you have given us. In Jesus
name we pray. Amen

armywife, were you able to finally contact your friends in Fort Hood?
Spar2, love you. Your grandson is right that this is one of the hardest things he will ever have to do. Drug addiction is wicked and he will get very discouraged along the way (I worked in a drug recovery program years ago). Will continue to pray for him.

My soul finds rest in God alone;( not those others
things I want); my salvation comes from Him. He
alone is my rock and my salvation; He is my
fortress, I will never be shaken." (Psalm 62:1-2)
Praise the Lord!
Oh, give thanks to the Lord, For He is good!
For His mercy endures forever.
Who can utter the mighty acts of the Lord?
Who can declare all His praise? (Psalm 106:1-2)
While I live I will praise the Lord;
I will sing praises to my God while
I have my well being. Psalm 146:2
Peace I leave with You, My peace I
give unto you; not as the world giveth
do I give to you. Let not your heart be
troubled, neither let it be afraid. John 14:27
O Lord, Its the end of a long day Father. There have been
struggles for some of us, But You were with us all day long.
Through our body aches from chemo, To weariness from test
and side effects from meds. We know our hearts feel glad to
come to You in prayer. Ah, sweet rest, dear Lord, Our head
sinks into the pillow. How magnificent Your watchful presence
is. Thank You for the way Your Holy Spirit surrounds us. Songs
of praise fill our minds. Our bodies relax. Our hearts are fixed on
You. How wonderful are all Your promises to love and care for us.
How much more wonderful are the ways You kept Your word. Our
minds are filled with everything we know about You. Thank You for
watching over us while we sleep. In the night shadows, We lift our
hearts in adoration. You are our strength. You are the One who rej-
uvenates us while we rest. Our souls cling to You while You hold us
close to You throughout the night. We commit our thoughts to You.
Each worry we place at Your feet. Each request we leave in Your
sure care. We bring our friends to You, Lord; Genia, Jo, Patoo, Mary,
Kbugmom, Armywifenmommy, Shar, Seyla, kmccaw423, deborye,mmm5,
and any other here in need of Your comfort. Each request we leave with
Your sure care. In all our meditations we will honor You. For You are holy,
Holy, Holy,are You, O our God. dear Lord, We love You and Thank You
for loving us. In Jesus name we pray. Amen

Thank you for your prayers. I was able to get in touch with some of my friends -- one I had to talk to family -- unfortunately they got caught in the middle of it and are pretty hurt. Gonna pull through though. I cannot imagine - we get into a mindset for deployment...not for homefront... So rough.
*sigh* One day at a time...0 -

Thankyou for all of your warm words and reminders of Gods love and presence. May you be cared for in every need tonight and tomorrow.

mmm5 - Debbie, through her pure heart and love of God does remind us that in the midst of strife and pain the Lord is with us. It is we that turn away - never the Lord. I tend to have little patience and all your steadfast prayers remind me of my Lord and God. Striving for immortal life is far more important than anything I do. So, humbly, thank you.
Blessings to all my prayer sisters. I am so grateful to have you in my life.

Here is a nice poem I saw in an insert to our Sunday Lowell Sun.
"Dear God, I pray to give all of our soldiers the courage and strength to do the duty that is required of them. May they always remember our appreciation for the sacrifice they are making for us. We are thankful for the men and women who are willing to risk their lives to protect our freedom. I ask you to go with each one of them and protect them wherever they go. AMEN"

Dear Lord, When storms of life toss us about, Lord,
Please take our hearts at the being securely planted
in the hollow of Your hand, We will feel Your firm but
tender grip, There we will cling to the hollow of Your
hand. When endless challenges come as we deal with
all the whirlwinds of cancer, And we feel Your presence
as You wrap Your steady fingers around ours and hold
us in the hollow of Your hand. When we see the light at
the end of the tunnel and take pleasure in sunshiny days,
We will rejoice. Still we nestle in the hollow of Your hand.
When the time come for life's journey to take a new turn.
We will glance to You Our Lord, and reach for the hollow
of Your hand. As many here Lord are in need of Your hand
to help them through. We lift them up to You and give them
peace, In the hollow of Your hand. Please give peace and
comfort to: Genia, Patoo, kbugmom, armywifenmommy,
mmm5, deborye, kmccraw423, Jo,spar, Selya and all the
other wonderful sister here, In need of Your comfort and peace.
In Your wonderful name we pray. Amen

Lord, Shine the light of Your Word on the
path of our life. Make it a lamp unto our feet
so we do not stumble. Bring it alive in our
spirits so that it illuminates our bodies and souls.
Let it be a guide for every decision we make,
every step we take, Keep us thinking good
so we may help ourselves to see Your love
and kindness as we walk a narrow path that
leads us to healing. Please be with all that are

and thin. We could never see Your light shining without
them. As we walk this path and look for new ways to

That is wonderful... I felt similarly after talking on the phone with a bc.org member (9-year survivor) last night... also, my brother's mother-in-law sent me several pages of Scripture and her own story which is so encouraging... will see if she minds if I post it tomorrow.
