Prayer Request... For Me This Time

I just wanted to let you know that I'm having some outpatient surgery done on Monday. Nothing major... just some girlie stuff. I'll spare you - especially our male readers! - the details. I just wanted to know if you could remember me in prayer. I've been battling with fear about the whole thing all week. This morning in church, we sang the song Hosanna and one part specifically caught my attention.

When we see you, we find strength to face the day.
In your presence all our fears are washed away...
washed away.



I just need to remember that it's in God's presence that the fears are washed away. His peace is able to sustain us... even when we're not sure what's coming next.

So, I appreciate your prayers. I'll let you know how everything goes, and - of course - be back with more deals before you know it!

You will be in my prayers. I had surgery 8 months ago and I should have been scared to death but I wasn't. I prayed the entire time and God filled me with such peace.

I will be praying for your Dr's and you. Everything will be fine. As God says He has already been there and He knows what is going to happen. He already has things planed out all for the good of His people!

I am sending you my support. You will be in my thoughts.

I've gone through similar health issues so I can definitely relate.

Please picture all of us, your cyber sisters and friends, sitting by your side holding your hand...
