In Need of Encouragement Today

Dad continues to feel good but his spirits are kind of low. He knows his second 30-day evaluation for therapy is coming up and he is worrying himself to death about it. He is so afraid that he hasn't made enough progress to continue another 30 day period. So I am going to try to find out from his therapists when the evaluation is and how they feel he is doing and hopefully they can encourage us and him OR give us some indication of what he needs to improve in order to continue with therapy. So we are trying to surround him with love and support and encouragement, but we would also like to ask you to keep dad in your prayers this week for his therapy and enough improvement to move forward. I pretty much told dad when he was talking about it today that "we have come way to far to give up now - don't you give up on me - don't you give up on yourself!" He promised me he wouldn't give up - but he said just doesn't understand why he can not master his balance and if he could just do that - so please pray with us for that specific thing this week -

If you would pray this prayer with me. . .Heavenly Father - we come to you today as family and friends of Shug Kisner and we ask you to intercede this week in his health and strength. Give him balance and confidence to accomplish whatever is necessary to keep him in the therapy program at the Wellness Center and keep him progressing toward his goal of becoming mobile again. We love you and trust you to act according to your will - and we believe for great things above all that we can think or imagine for Shug this week - you are a mighty God - able to do all things in those who believe. . . and Father we come boldly to your throne today saying "we believe". In your precious son's name Jesus Christ we pray. . . AMEN!
