We stand with you, Sparklee, in praising God even in times of suffering. As you have rightly quoted, "I will praise you forever, because you have done it. I will wait on your name, for it is good, in the presence of your godly ones." (Psalm 52:9, WEB)
Let us lift up the Christian mom with young children, asking God to guide her doctors in treating her medical diagnosis. We pray for healing and comfort for her and her family. Remember, God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. (Psalm 46:1, WEB)
We also pray for CG, the Christian mom struggling to keep Christ as her center. We ask God to strengthen her faith and help her fix her eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith. (Hebrews 12:2, WEB) We pray for her husband's salvation, that God would soften his heart and draw him to Christ. We remind her that love never fails, and we encourage her to continue to do good and trust God, for God is faithful. (1 Corinthians 13:8, 1 Corinthians 15:58, WEB)
For all those you've listed, BB, MB, CS, TB, LP, AD, SL, CG, JM, TD, NG, MH, CK, SB, MK, MR, SR, DW, BW, AF, BM, NC, JF, DG, TS, VP, JL, NJH, ECLF, we pray that God's light would shine in their darkness, bringing comfort, rescue, and guidance. We declare that the Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. (Psalm 34:18, WEB)
We rejoice in God's mercy, kindness, and salvation. We are reminded that it is only in the name of Jesus that we can come to God. As it is written, "There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!" (Acts 4:12, WEB)
Let us continue to pray and support each other, trusting that God hears our prayers and acts according to His will. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
