dear ty

Dear Lord, TY for blessing my visit with A + M recently. Although it may not be obvious to me, I know you are working in their lives to bring them closer to you. Please expose any false teachings that may appeal to them at this time. May any + all false teachings lose their appeal asap. May...

Dear Lord, TY for this awesome pastor's dedication to you + to his congregation. Please bless him + restore his strength + soul. To my knowledge, he is on his own, pretty much. I heard he is still waiting for his wife to come back. They got divorced years ago, but I get the impression it was...

Dear Lord, TY that A's pain is better. She finally got an ultrasound scheduled for 5/26. The cyst has partially collapsed, so I pray that means its fluid is being reabsorbed. It will also be less likely to rupture if it's not full of fluid + under high pressure. May her doc keep the app't she...

Dear Lord, TY for always helping me. I pray all goes well with tomorrow's endoscopy-may there be no evidence of further spread of the cancer. May the biopsies confirm this. I really would like for the doc to be able to do an ablation, but there's been too much inflammation to do one during the...

Dear Lord, TY for your great goodness. So far, my kidney function has not improved. The hemoglobin dropped to 9.4 which means I will almost certainly have to take a synthetic medication to boost red cell production. It can raise BP, + mine already tends to run high. I pray for your help with...

Dear Lord, TY that the past few days I've had a bit more energy. I pray that my lab results improve, even if it's just a bit. I do not have much kidney function as it is, + can't afford for it to drop any lower. TY for your great goodness + the extraordinary lengths you've gone to to keep me...

Dear Lord, TY for keeping A safe so far. I'm waiting for a text update from her yet tonight, but she is due to fly home tomorrow + will get in very late at night. I pray her flights will be uneventful + everyone in the group will be able to test negative so they can return w/o being held up or...

Dear Lord, TY for keeping me alive so long, against all odds. Things aren't looking good again for my health: a failing kidney transplant plus cancer. I am tired + am ready to go be with you, but am conflicted bc I also want to be available for my daughter, who is not aligned with your word, +...

Dear Lord, TY for my friend P. Please comfort her + her family as they mourn the death of her father. They are Catholic, so they have some contradictory beliefs, such as Mary being holy + possibly seeing her as a co-redeemer. I don't know how you sort that all out, + I don't know much of...

Dear Lord, TY that B's surgery went well. Her vision is a little cloudy, but that may be due to swelling after the surgery. She has a follow-up app't tomorrow. May everything look good + may she heal well + quickly. She tends to obsess over every little thing. May she feel your peace + trust...

Dear Lord, TY for your many blessings, + loving us enough to save us. TY that A + M seem to have a good marriage; please cont. to bless it + help them to stay together. Bless my relationship with them as well. Please cont. to bless our communication with one another. May A understand any...

Dear Lord, TY that the shingles is finally resolving. I still have pain in the affected area of my back, which is complicated by gall stones (pain in the same area). The shingles was bad enough that a large area is scarring, but at least there is no active shingles rash visible. I do have...

Dear Lord, TY for the blessings you have showered on us, + for the ways you've facilitated my relationship with A + M, + them with each other. Please cont. to bless our communication with one another. May A understand any suggestion I might make is not an indictment of my faith in her judgment...

Dear Lord, TY for blessing + protecting us in so many ways. TY that B's dizziness has been somewhat better. Help me to be more patient with her paranoid ideation + perseveration. Bless A + M in ways that will lead them out of this spiritual eclipse asap. I get alarmed when A tells me things...

Dear Lord, TY for all you have done for us in every circumstance. TY for getting us through a long power outage during a heat wave. I so appreciate your protection, grace + mercy. It is very difficult to witness what is happening to our country + even our ally Canada, which seems to be pretty...

Dear Lord, TY for everything you have done to further A + M's salvation. It's a real challenge to fight back against the enemy's attacks when I'm also fighting against concerns for our nation; the apparent inexorable advance of communism; the encroaching loss of civil rights; the complete lack...

Dear Lord, TY for all you have done to bless + protect A + M. Please cont. to do so. I am greatly concerned about our country, esp. since so many young people have the rest of their lives to endure what lies ahead. It is difficult sometimes not to despair. Many of our leaders appear to have...

Dear Lord, TY for G's gradual improvement. She is slowly getting her sense of smell/taste back. It's still hard for her to eat d/t aftereffects of chemo/radiation + poor dentition. Bless her during this next ordeal she will be going through. May she be encouraged + may all go well. In your...

Dear Lord, TY for your protection of all of us, all these years. TY for your countless blessings, I pray again for special intervention in A + M's spiritual lives, so that both will be rotated out of this spiritual eclipse they're in. May they recognize that they are in darkness + reach for...

Dear Lord, TY for all you are doing to secure A + M's salvation. I ask for your blessings on my relationship with them. It's pretty good, but I feel like I have a clamp on my tongue sometimes bc she doesn't want me to talk about religion; politics is controversial; + we have different...
