Looking 4 Prayers of Encouragement & Healing
Hey family and friends, I am sending out a special request tonight that you flood heaven with lots and lots of prayers for dad tonight and tomorrow. He is going thru a very frustrating, sad and confusing stage of his illness and he really needs our encouragement and strength. Our family also wants to partner with all of you this week to concentrate on praying specifically for dad's healing and strength. He is feeling like he can't do anything and that he has done something to 'get himself into this mess'. He is so worried about his future and just doesn't understand why he can't get better. Most everyone of you at some time or another has been encouraged by our dad - he always has a positive word to say or a way of looking for the glass that's half full - now he needs your encouragement and strength to believe for something significant in his rehab this week to give him the motivation and belief that he can and will conquer this giant in front of him. We have a "family consult" at 11am tomorrow with dad's doctor and therapists. We are praying to hear some good news on dad's future and we are believing for even greater things to come out of his rehab this week. If you have time, slip up to see dad this week or give him a phone call or send him a card - these are all powerful ways to encourage dad and remind him of how special is to all of us!

We cotinue to pray each night for Shug's recovery and that his days in the hospital/rehab will be good. You know that you can download very uplifting and encouraging messages from Joel Osteen by subscribing to his podcast. I listen to them daily and it keeps me on the right track and a smile in my heart. Maybe you could do that for Shug...to help him when he gets a little discouraged. Just a thought... Hoping you will post fantastic news this evening. Hugs, Holly
