A prayer request for myself..

[Marieh]

Clean bill of health 6 months ago now cancer. I won’t know what stage until they review the ct scans then he said he’ll give me my options. Everyone is behind, so long waits are the normal. Waiting over a month before knowing SUCKS and waiting to start treatments doesn’t make sense when you always hear “early detection”. I would truly appreciate your prayers.
One thing for certain is if all goes well I’ll be getting rid of a ton of my things. Being so far from my family I doubt they’d keep 1% of it and would give or throw away tens of thousands of dollars of items. Something I’ve thought about but put off. Thanks

My husband had blood cancer. Feb22,2024 5 years cancer free. Prayer, attitude and trust pulled us through. I said to God, you said you would not give a stone when we asked for bread. He promised He would never leave or forsake us. Have the faith of a mustard seed and wait on God. Prayer

Footprints in the Sand​

One night I dreamed a dream.
As I was walking along the beach with my Lord.
Across the dark sky flashed scenes from my life.
For each scene, I noticed two sets of footprints in the sand,
One belonging to me and one to my Lord.

After the last scene of my life flashed before me
I looked back at the footprints in the sand.
I noticed that at many times along the path of my life,
especially at the very lowest and saddest times before daily prayer,
there was only one set of footprints.
"I don’t understand why, when I need You most, You would leave me."

He whispered, "My precious child, I love you and will never leave you,
Never, ever, during your trials and testings.
When you saw only one set of footprints,
It was then that I carried you."

I try to pray daily (private prayer after wake up and before going to bed) and circumstantially through the day. But I feel I don't pray enough (sometimes my private prayers are short ~5-15min) and don't pray correctly (Often I get distracted with my thoughts).

Can you please give me some advice to pray for the glory of God? Or recommend me books or sermons about this topic in a practical way (I think I know the theological importance, this is why I feel really bad about my prayer life)

Thank you so much.

Vito, I think of that poem when I feel down down. He's always there.

Thanking everyone for their prayers. After multiple delays and more test at the hospital they found an unusually large something so they scheduled me for exploratory(?) surgery. After another delay the doctor finally seen me and said he didn’t find the cancer. Praise the Lord. Ironically while still at his office my dermatologist called and said I had more skin cancer. Fortunately this time it was basil cell and he later removed it at the office. Maybe I need a new doc or the pathologist they used but I believe in the power of prayers and still praying for Mike and Bob. If nothing else, things like this make you think hard about the time you have left here on earth. Again I want to thank everyone for their prayers. Please pray for the hostages still being held and the citizens of Ukraine.
