I could use a little help with prayers, I had triple bypass surgery done last may and don't seem to be healing well. after the surgery the docs told me I had diabetes and now fighting hard with meds. I do not think of suicide but it's getting harder to face the days of pain and these crazy meds. I know the Lord wants me to hold on but my grip is weak. I would say that prayers for a closer walk with the Lord would be better.
Thank you Lee
Hello Lee,
The central part of your letter is this: "Ï know the Lord wants me to hold on but my grip is weak".
But I give you some words from the Bible. Ïsaiah 40 v 29 "He ( The Lord) gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak".
Isaiah 40 v 31. "Those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength They will soar on wings like eagles, they will run and not go weary, they will walk and not be faint
Lee. there are so many textes like these. What you need in these difficult times is: - read the bible -have a good congregation, (church), where there are people, praying with you an weeping with you an glorifying with you from immediately near.
We, your p.c. friends, love you so much, but we cannot do so much for you as friends in you close neighbourhood can.
We pray for you. but it is good to pray yourself in a 'directe' way with textes as your basis.
But we, friends from a distance can do very important things though. Jesus said in Mark 16 v 18: "Believers will- in the name of Jesus- lay their hands on sick people and they will be well".
And that is what we, your friends are doing now, virtually and spiritually.
