Prayer and Spiritual Support

praying for you Ron--I am going thru the same situation with my mom. (fingers crossed--she seems to be doing ok right now)
 
As we go through our journeys in life may we feel God's presence and peace. May God's love shine through us and guide us.
 
Hi iv been MIA here for a while. No updates and bad memory on my part are the reasons...
Love and prayers to you all. Sending hugs :ghug:
Remember ...when you see only 1set of footprints....thats when God is carrying you. 👣💞

I hope your Dad just needs a medication change or whatever. It's heartbreaking to know he's not himself when you can't be there all the time to visit.
I will pray for both of you and hope you get down to see him soon. ..Gram214
 
Lord we ask you for peace and healing and to help Madhu with the difficulties in her life. Thank you Jesus, Amen.
 
Had a great week with my three granddaughters at my little cabin in the woods. Playing and swimming and painting tiny bird houses. I miss them already but recuperating from it too lol. 2, 4, and now 7 is a lot of work but love it, got 15,000 steps on my fitbit one day record for me!
 
Gi jane..Aw glad you had a great time with grandchildren. I hear you on the being shattered tho. My grandson has just turmed 1 n he wears me out. Love him to bits amd cant wait to see him, but i end up feeling iv been run over by a train when he's gone home .lol. 😃

Love support n prayers coming your way from me. 💕💞🙏
 
Grandkids are the best but ya tiring with 3 going to take the oldest for a week by herself much easier. She so loved that last year.
 
I've been having so much fun in my yard getting it in order. After so many months in the hospital it went crazy. It's been fun fighting the chaos.

I do find so much peace doing gardening and landscaping. Something to focus on instead of the pain. The brook out back is the latest battle. Just found out.

A brook is something you step over.
A creek is something you jump over.
A stream is something you wade across.
A river is something you swim across.
 
I woke up with horrid migraine, severe stomach cramping, and explosive D. Feel like I'm going to go out of my mind. Can you send prayers please? Thanks.
 
Thank you everyone. The worst of it is over. I know I am healing faster than if no prayers were said. God bless all of you.
 
I pray that all will be safe during these wildfires and other serious weather events. I ask for better health for all those in need, Lord please help these people, I ask this in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
 
Praying for you Ron. Please keep my nephew Xavier in prayers he a few months old and had to have major surgery on his bladder. Also continued prayers for the fires to end. No son and no sky I miss them.
 
Prayers for all of you.

Since my surgery last July, I've been in remission for over a year, but I'm afraid my CD has returned as of last Thursday. It could just be some kind of bug, but I'm assuming the worst, just in case. I've had some minor cramping and about 3-4 bouts of D everyday. It's nothing compared to what I dealt with before my surgery. I ask for prayers that, this isn't a flare, and just a bug, but if it is a flare, I pray that we can get it under control quickly and back into remission with just a round of steroids without having to switch up my maintenance meds. Thanks.

Hello all! Iv had uncontrollable crohns symptoms for about 14 years now. Remicade,Humira, 6mp,imuran...countless lots of cortisone and steroid weans. No remission, not once. My faith and my daughter have kept me going. Iv had an illeostomy, with 70cm of my bowels removed as the stricturing was causing constant obstructions, and eventually a perforation through one of the many abscesses. I was super hopeful about a natural remedy (have tried just about every diet...some like foodmap making things worse!), but am now a little afraid it won't work, and it's another let down, on a list the length of my arm. Please pray for me, as I will for all you lovely people on this thread. I think it's lovely to see so many of us can suffer, yet our faith tested remains firm. Blessings to all of you. xo
 
Prayers for you hcrum and Irene. May remission and relief of symptoms be in your near future.
 
hcrum87hc praying it's just a bug. I'm a little scared lately they will have to add another medication to my others. Big weekend my youngest of two is getting married. Please pray no rain as it's on the beach.
 
This month our lives will have a major change. My older brother Dave is moving in with us. He has a severe case of Ausberger's Syndrome. Ausberger's is a disorder that is on the Autism spectrum. He has been living with my sister's family for the last 13 years. The reason for this change is his presence in their home is putting too much pressure on the relationship between my sister and her husband. There are also some lifestyle differences that will need to be handled and being autistic, he has difficulty with change. Please pray for all of us as this change comes. I am afraid it will be difficult.
 
praying Doug for a very smooth transition. May God give you strength and wisdom during this change.
 
This speaks to me right now during these uncertain and violent times.


PSALM 23

A Psalm of David.

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.

My nephew has this and moved out with some friends for awhile and then had to move back into my brothers. He is holding a job at Target and doing better. Hope all goes well. They like patterns so make your date nights and such on a calendar which will help reduce stress. Keeping you in our prayers.
 
Indeed Chris.. you all are in my prayers when i say them. As you say we all need all the help we can get, whatever our beliefs. I believe in the power of the universe aswell and offer good thoughts and good health to people. If it makes a difference great if not no harm is done. I just think that its worth putting it out there n hoping it helps 💞
 
Well said, Mandy. My sister who does not necessarily believe in any kind of God, but does believe in some sort of higher force or power in the universe, tells me she sends "white light" to those she cares about. I'm with you, it can't hurt to send positive thoughts/vibes or whatever you want to call it.
I know this is not a Crohn's or IBD concern, but I am not feeling well at all. I think my progressive heart/lung disease (pulmonary hypertension, a serious and rare disease, not to be confused with regular hypertension) is, well, progressing. I see the cardiologist tomorrow but could use a few prayers. Or white light. Or positive thoughts. Thank you in advance.

Sending prayers, Sandy
 
Lord help Sandy to have strength and rest in this struggle she is going through God. Send her the right help to make it through this time. Amen
 
Prayers and positive vibes to you Sandy. May they help to get you feelling better my angel 💞💞

Also il pray for you all . For better health and happiness and peace 💟💗💖
 
Amen Chris. Though I am quite verbose as of late (and many times, what can I say :ytongue:), I am very aware of how much suffering goes on with each and every one of you.
I also want to post something good. Almost immediately after people responded here to my post, I had a lot more peace yesterday. I know it is the power of prayer. That isn't to say the tough times yesterday and today didn't continue, and I even know it will in one form or the other in the future, that is the nature of chronic illness, but I felt a peace and strength that wasn't there before. You are my angels on earth. That has helped carried me though.
I had my appointment with my cardiologist today, and Jane, I feel I especially need to tell you, I felt that my health care was being watched over by what you said. This is something that I have had negative experiences with in the past, way too many times (I've actually felt jinxed for lack of a better word). I felt like my health care was being taken in the direction it should this time! Like I mentioned on the Last One Wins thread, my meds for my heart racing was literally doubled, and although the doctor didn't scare me with what can happen in the future (I know only too well), he gently pointed out (as you all know I know), mine is a progressive disease and he wanted to see where it stands now (small easy test scheduled in November that should answer that.) He didn't white wash anything, but was gentle at the same time, and I could tell honestly cared. (Madhu, you might find it is interesting that he is from India too!)
Thanks to everyone here. My heart is full tonight, my health its more tolerable thanks to increase in meds, and I feel like I have direction, something I haven't felt in a long time.
My prayers will continue for those here too.
