iPrayer 4/30/12


Hi!

I hope the Spring is treating you, and your house and cars....nicely! We are having a roaring wild weather spell here! Hail of all sizes in one yard, deep enough to consider practically snow!!!

Let's say a prayer before a few very sad requests, and a few great praises!

Father God, 
We pray that You would allow us the couple of minutes it will take to read and respond to these requests. We pray for Your Holy Spirit to remind us of these things, remind us of who to pray for and what to say, as we go about our day. Thank you for Your constant love and attention. Thank You for always knowing what we need before we ask and for taking care of problems before we know we have them. Let us stay safe and honor You always, In Jesus Name, Amen.


Request #1: Robin sent me the sad news that her niece's good friend Rachel lost their baby last night. The 2 1/2 year old drown in a pool yesterday. :-( This is the baby boy we collected some things for awhile ago. His name was Leo. No word yet on funeral arrangements. What a sad story. I had heard this on the news, not knowing who they were, and right away said a prayer. I had hoped all would be well, as the initial report was that the child had been taken to Kosair. :-(

Request #2/Praise: Lisa- "There is a blockage in the left carotid artery (in my neck) and I am on an aspirin a day to ward off a stroke. Just trying to see what all we are dealing with b-4 any meds or procedures.  They don’t know the percentage of the blockage yet either." but there is also good news! "Went this morning for bloodwork and echo stress tests. ( ultrasounds of your heart on treadmill etc). They have already called me back on the echo stress test and said all the chambers, arteries, and all functions of my heart are normal!!     They should have the blood test results back next week and we will see how that is!"

Request #3: From Ronnie -Just had an update from 2 doctors that are working on Billy. His triglycerides are in the 3000's, they have to do a procedure called plasmapheresis, in laymen's terms, all the fat in his blood are affecting the vessels around his brain, so this is kinda like an oil change, the have to flush all of that out to give him the best chance to survive. His cardiologist said that he may not survive all that he has been through. It's really bad! =\ 
History: (Billy was the music minister at our church a long time ago.) I will be giving updates on my Facebook page where you can read about Billy's progress athttp://facebook.com/helloimbarryYou do not have to be my friend to see the status updates. I have the most public profile possible.

Request #4: Lucas, a 3 year old, has been having an odd health issue, in which he goes into a asthma-type breathing issue combined with a very high fever (anywhere from 100-104) and then it will all go away again just as suddenly. It's been going on for sometime, and just as we all decide he is back to normal, here we go again. Let's pray that it will stabilize and the doctor will pinpoint what is causing it. They keep giving the "probably a viral infection" answer for a couple of years off and on.
