Will all please put my uncle and aunt on their prayer list? He is 75 yrs. old and now bedridden (parachuting into a remote area and hit his hip hard on a rock, had to walk a long way on the injury to get to help which made it worse) it didn't heal up properly and now has other health issues to go along with it. Please pray for his pain to be eased; I talked with him tonight and he sounded awful. My aunt is very stressed, but bravely dealing with her care for him right now. He can't walk now, but please pray for him to be able to get up and function once again. Please pray we can help them meaningfully and practically. Thanks.

"Our Great God"
-Fernando Ortega
Eternal God, unchanging, mysterious and unknown.
Your boundless love unfailing, in grace and mercy shown.
Bright seraphim in endless flight around your glorious throne.
They raise their voices day and night in praise to you alone.
Chorus: Hallelujah! Glory be to our great God! (x2)
Lord, we are weak and frail, helpless in the storm.
Surround us with your angels, hold us in your arms.
Our cold and ruthless enemy, his pleasure is our harm.
Rise up, oh Lord, and he will flee before our Sovereign God.
Let every creature in the sea and every flying bird;
Let every mountain, every field and valley of the earth;
Let all the moons and all the stars in all the universe
Sing praises to the living God, who rules them by His word.

Father, we know from your Word that perilous times are coming.
Luk 21:25 "There will be strange things happening to the sun, the moon, and the stars. On earth whole countries will be in despair, afraid of the roar of the sea and the raging tides.
I can hardly keep my eyes on the news.
It is disturbing in so many ways.
I need your peace.
You have told us before hand what will happen.
Luk 21:26 people fainting with fear and with foreboding of what is coming on the world. For the powers of the heavens will be shaken.
Luk 21:27 And then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.
Luk 21:28 Now when these things BEGIN to take place, straighten up and raise your heads, because your redemption is drawing near."
I don't know Lord if we will be here for that.
I don't want to cower in fear, but be bold in faith.
This can only be done in the power of your Spirit.
I ask for courage by which I can Glorify you and stand in Faith.
I want to keep truth and expectant joy uppermost in my heart and mind.
It is hard to put this request into words.
Give me peace.
Revive us Lord, and let us wash our garments.
I ask this in Jesus' Name
Praying for your Aunt and Uncle Right Now in my Bedtime Prayers, and Prayers will Continue. Our Sweet King, Who Loves us Dearly, Bless him and Ease his Pain.
