Today’s Scripture: And especially pray that I will be able to come back to you soon. Hebrews 13:19 NLT
Our prayers join in harmony to praise God and to lift our brothers and sisters in the love and care of the Holy Spirit.
There is beauty in the outpouring of prayer and love from others. Some of you are faithful to pray for me and I have robbed you of the opportunity to support my family at this time.
I have been with my wife and family as her father faces his final earthly days. Our children and others have joined us to show our love and respect for Jimbo. We have been embraced by strangers and experienced the love and hearts of those called to serve the dying.
I am praying thanksgivings for all of you and I must say I need your prayers. Please pray for Jimbo, Ronda and Ricky for God’s peace. We need the prayers of others.
What can I pray for you?
Today’s Prayer: Father God, thank You for Your love that You have placed in our hearts. Thank You for giving us the ability to pray to You for others. LORD, remove all pride from me so I will freely ask for the prayers of others. I need You LORD and welcome the prayers of others. Amen

Tom, I have prayed for you, Ronda and Ricky at this difficult time. 1 John 5:14 says it all; that if we ask anything according to His will He hears us. I will also pray for Jimbo as he prepares to enter eternity. God Bless!

I am lifting you, Ronda, Ricky, your entire family up Tom! May Jimbo feel the love of all of you, physically there with him, as well as all of his sisters and brothers in Christ scattered across this earth…lifting him up to the capable arms of our Father. May this give him peace that surpasses knowledge and even a joy that is unspeakable! Cindy

Blessings and thanksgivings!!

I believe only God can comfort you and your family’s grieving hearts. “Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted. ~Matthew 5:4” Prayed for you and your family Sir Tom… “To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: ~Ecclesiastes 3:1” Just keep in mind our Lord keeps His promises ♡ “Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live. ~John 11:25”
Blessings to you Mae and thank you for your prayers and scriptural reminders. We are blessed in this season by the care and love we find in our morning. To think that my family is receiving prayers from Kuwait is mind blowing. My prayers are also with you now and I am thankful for you and my fellow believers. In Him we live. Blessings and thanksgivings!
My Dear Brother Tom,
You, Rhonda, Ricky and your entire families are in my prayers right now. I understand the sorrow from loss of a loved one, but Rejoice. Jimbo is preparing for a great celebration in heaven. God Bless you all, I just wish I had seen this sooner.
