My mum will have surgery tomorrow morning, 7:30 a.m. EST to remove a cancerous growth on one of her kidneys.
Have to be at the hospital by 6:00 a.m.
Appreciate prayers. Specifically for the leading of the Holy Spirit to be amongst the surgeons who are performing her operation. That the Lord calm my mum's fears (which are heighten), as well as mine during this time. That the cancer had not spread and will be contained. To give me strength, and sound of mind in the days afterwards as I take care of her and that she heals quickly.
Reality is now setting in for me. I have been so preoccupied with my own health problems and going ons at work, that they over road what my mum will be going through. I am concerned. But at the same time, knowing God is in control! I am still believing for a miracle!
If that was not bad enough, please keep in prayer Hurricane Irene. I live in South Florida. Looks like "now" the hurricane will skirt the east coast of Florida, so that is a good thing. May just get wind and some rain. No direct hit.
Thank you.
Praying for both of you!

Praying my friend, for your mum, you and will pray against this hurricane.

Sending prayers for healing for your mum and strength for you during this stressful time. Is it okay if I send Reiki to both of you right now and over the next little while that you mum is in recovery? Reiki is healing energy from God/the Universe. I believe that God gives each of us the ability to heal ourselves. The Reiki just helps us to do that.
ReplyDeleteLots of prayers being sent to you and your mom!!!
ReplyDeletekeep us posted on what is happening!

Hey JBR....I think all of Florida is in the clear (I'm in Jacksonville)! I have a feeling this storm may swerve on out to sea!
ReplyDeleteWill definitely keep you and your mom in my prayers! Trusting in God for a good outcome is always easier said than done....but He wants us to trust Him. I will pray for peace for you and your mom and that God will guide the hands of the surgeons! Hang in there...you are not alone!
