Give it Your Sunday Best

I want to make sure everyone sees something that was posted in a comment.

Reader Pbird says:

Sigh. Now its me asking for prayer. I just found out my elderly aunt who raised ten children and babysat their children and their grandchildren and even some greatgrandchildren and worked hard and faithfully for eighty years has badly metasticised breast cancer. Of course its not fair is it? Life on earth is not for sissies.
She wanted to make Christmas for all the kids so she did what she wanted and didn’t mention the cancer which she must have known she had. Her name is Clara. I don’t know what the Lord wants for her now, but she has a huge family of terrified people and they certainly need prayer. I think she is a Christian in a sort of sedate way.

Join me on this one, if you will.

I note the part about her aunt being a Christian “in a sort of sedate way.” These days, I never pray for anyone without including a prayer that they will turn to God and learn to walk in faith and obedience. You have to give, to get.

    Thank you Steve and all others who can pray. We are waiting today to hear what the hospital decides to do for her.
    I am full of hope for her and all those descendents.

    Prayers headed your way. After losing my husband in October, I can tell you that God does work in mysterious ways. Bad things do sometimes happen to good people. I hope she pulls through this, to make the next Christmas.
