OMG, Is this really the kind of society we want? Because this is what we get when people who are hell-bent on being politically correct all the time get their way. Blame them. Because they deserve the blame.

Halla the puppy has crashed

For years Jews have been allowed to visit the Temple Mount, the holiest place on earth according to the Jewish religion, but have not been allowed to pray there. In late 2012 police issued draconian instructions under which Jewish visitors could be arrested for merely appearing to pray. All that may change with MK Miri Regev’s appointment to head the Knesset’s Internal Affairs Committee. Regev (Likud) is planning a trip to the Temple Mount in order to weigh the option of permitting Jewish prayer at the site. In announcing her plans, Regev quoted from the Biblical prophecies of Isaiah, “Even...

Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu called Rafi Biton on the eve of the Pesach holiday to tell him that suspects in attempted murder of his daughter, Adelle, are under arrest. Adelle, who is only 3, is in critical condition after the attack, in which Arabs hurled rocks at moving cars near Ariel. Netanyahu wished Biton and his family a happy Pesach. "I, my wife, Sarah, and the entire nation of Israel pray for the well-being of our sweet little one, Adelle," he said. Seven Israelis were injured in the terror attack, nine days ago. They include Adelle's mother and two sisters,...

This is a prayer thread for Mesta. I've been on the phone with her for hours today/yesterday (my sense of time is getting a little frassled), and we need a great amount of prayer. Mesta went down hard a few days ago, I was on the phone when it happened and I heard her hit the floor and scream, then a bunch of running, slamming doors and chaos before the line went dead. It was a couple of days before I was able to get her status and got my proper links to her hospital, and it doesn't look good....

Pray For Our American Heroes and Our Nation He replied, “When evening comes, you say, ‘It will be fair weather, for the sky is red,’ and in the morning, ‘Today it will be stormy, for the sky is red and overcast.’ You know how to interpret the appearance of the sky, but you cannot interpret the signs of the times. Matthew 16:2, 3 (NIV) ----

My dad is in the hospital with kidney failure. He only has one having lost the other to kidney cancer 30 yrs ago. He has a lot of other health problems so this is hard to treat and serious. Prayers are appreciated. Thank you.

My dear friend Lisa and her family are suffering a terrible lose today. Her dear Mother was found dead today around noon in her bed by her brother. Her Mom's name is Corinne. Please pray for this family. Corinne's granddaughters were deeply in grief as I comforted them when they got word since I was there. I have not seen Lisa yet but can only imagine. Corinne was healthy and mid 60's further adding to the shock of this all. Thank you!

If I could ask for prayers for my brother-in-law and his mother (My mother-in-law). She is 80 years old and has cared for him since he was diagnosed with schizophrenia in his early 20's. He has lung cancer and hospice was called in today to set up his bed, etc. She is devastated. They had a very special bond. We wanted him to make it to Christmas. He is looking forward to the family being there.

My good friend's 53 year old mother has been battling cancer for two years. She has decided to end treatment (chemo) to manage pain and nausea. Doctors have given her 2-6 mo. They're asking for prayers. Her first name is Margaret.

Please pray for a member of my family. They got clocked during sports practice and have had headaches & trouble concentrating. Been to a neurologist and is having yet another mri and will be out of action yet another two weeks. Thanks.

My daughter had her surgery today. They removed her left ovary but no signs that the cancer has spread. Thank you all for your prayers. My granddaughter will be 10 weeks old tomorrow. She was sent here for a reason.

My older brother underwent surgery for a disk problem four days ago. The surgery apparently went well but the recovery is going very poorly. Your prayers are appreciated.

Prayers requested, please. My young second cousin and three other men are missing since Tuesday. They were flying from Marshall, Texas, to Casper, Wyoming, in a small Piper aircraft. No word from them. Search crews are out, as is his parents (dad is a pilot). No emergency beacon activated. They think they had a ping from a cell phone but found nothing in that area. Crews are searching. News story at the link. My cousin in on the left.

I started a prayer thread for Romney last week prior to his debate. Things went well. Thought we should do it for Ryan.

Former KNWA news anchor Matt Turner has died in a car accident. It happened Saturday night on Interstate 30 near Bryant, Arkansas. He leaves behind his wife Julee and their young daughter Preslee, along with his mother and brother. His family released this statement Sunday morning: "Matt always loved and protected his family and his greatest asset was his love for his daughter Preslee. He always put his family and friends ahead of himself and was constantly thinking ahead and planning on their behalf. Matt was a man of integrity and had a strong faith in God. While we are...

One of my cats, Whitey, is sick. Until last Friday, she's been very active and eating a lot until she became kind of skittish and aloof and cut back on her eating. She sleeps a lot and still drinks water but eats sporatically. I think it could be a hyperactive thyroid, I had a similar experience with another cat where she was put on meds and responded well and lived a few years afterward. My other guess is maybe bad teeth, but I point towards the former. I'm hoping it is that or at least something that is treatable. I'm...

He is still on a ventilator, feeding tube, and in a coma. But his body temperature has been in the normal range for a couple of days now - PTL. After some patience causing delays in their departure, his parents are leaving today for Germany and will have more to say in a day or two. The last update was that the medical folks caring for Alex would like to see him on a plane back to a hospital here in the states by Friday. Thanks for joining me in prayers for this young man and his family. When they...

<p>It’s football time in Tennessee where longtime gridiron traditions are cherished – from Rocky Top to the Pride of the Southland Marching Band. At the start of every game inside the colossal Neyland Stadium, thousands of the football faithful rise to their feet, remove their hats and pause for the pre-game prayer.</p>

Please pray for my wife's mother. She made it to 84 years last week with the blessing of our Lord. Unfortunately her lungs don't have much more to give. My wife is very upset and all your prayers are appreciated. Thank you.
