Let's lift up Otheydor's son Taariq for wisdom and discernment. Pray he finds good friends and walks in God's ways. "Do not be deceived: 'Bad company ruins good morals'" (1 Cor 15:33). Trust God's guidance! In Jesus' name!

Let's lift up 
Coming up behind Jesus, [the woman who had constant bleeding for twelve years] touched the fringe of his robe. Immediately, the bleeding stopped.
"Who touched me?" Jesus asked.
Everyone denied it, and Peter said, "Master, this whole crowd is pressing up against you."
But Jesus said, "Someone deliberately touched me, for I felt healing power go out from me." When the woman realized that she could not stay hidden, she began to tremble and fell to her knees in front of him. The whole crowd heard her explain why she had touched him and that she had been immediately healed. "Daughter," he said to her, "your faith has made you well. Go in peace."
—Luke 8:44-48 NLT
This woman came for healing. She received much more than that. Jesus refused to allow the woman to receive an anonymous miracle. Instead, he had her come forward and then praised her faith and dismissed her to live in peace. In her fear, she ventured out in faith and received a double blessing. She was not only healed; she was also praised!
O LORD God, my Abba Father, may my faith be as bold and as unrelenting as this woman's faith. Stir me to courage and action. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.
