Friends of Faith!

Yesterday a precious group of women (some I've known up to 25 years) prayed over me. This was a sweet time because these women are heroes of faith to me. None of them have had "easy" lives but have walked through the fires of illnesses, death of spouses (through illnesses and homicide), deaths of grown children in the prime of their lives, survived divorce and single parenting, suffered sorrow in loss of family and friends, and the list goes on and on. You are just the same. I know so many of you who are praying for me, are dealing with your own "fires." Troubles, sorrow, chronic illnesses, broken relationships, daily care of loved ones suffering and pain are all around! The trust in God of the people in this circle of prayer is stronger now than ever! We have a long history with Him and as a group we have witnessed the sweet, sustaining grace of our God and see no reason to trust Him less! We choose, as a group, to love the Lord with all our hearts, minds, souls and strength!
The prayers of such people of faith are powerful! God is listening and working overtime in our lives! Thank you, Lord!
