My Sunday with Madeline

This was the image I took of Madeline.  Sunday her health rapidly declined and she is praying to go home.  I am asking for prayer for a calm and peaceful passing.  She has endured much pain and suffering, while faithfully holding on to our Lord.  

This Thursday I will be assisting Bee make the move to assisted living at the palace ... please pray that all goes well and I keep my emotions under control.  She has made me promise that I would not "quit her" So again it is my hope that I can make the time to see her Tuesday's after reading at the school.  

Fred, Elijah and myself are not so well.  We are so very grateful and thankful for your prayers ... healing :) please, Thank You Lord!

Pastor sent some very wonderful words my way today ...

Deb,

   I have learned to not out guess God so I am praying this prayer for Madeline La Rose:  Lord Jesus, you seek the best for each of us and you see a much bigger picture for our future than we can think or imagine.  There has been much suffering in the life of Madeline La Rose and so we pray that Your will be done.  Selfishly, we would not want her ill or in pain so our first prayer is healing and wholeness.  We also realize that the truest form of healing and wholeness results in a personal and spiritual relationship with You in heaven.  Our prayer, therefore, is that Your perfect will for Madeline La Rose is accomplished soon in a way that will be peaceful, joyful, and painless.  Give all, Madeline, her family and friends, the perfect peace that only You can give!  For we ask this in Christ’s holy name!  AMEN

 

  I pray a prayer much like that for each of you also.  I pray that whatever the illness you have it will find complete healing and a return to normality, whatever normality really is, and that you find that it was accomplished through Christ, our Lord!
