Sad News, Prayer Request for Freeper SoFarRight, BlackbirdSST, Family & Friends
BlackbirdSST ^ | 04/21/2006 | DoughtyOne

Folks, I just received some bad news and I wanted to share it with those of you who particiapte on the forum.

FReeper SoFarRight, BlackbirdSST's wife of 27 years was diagnosed with advanced cancer earlier today. BlackbirdSST asked that I place this post on the forum and request prayers for SoFarRight and him. He would also appreciate it if you would include prayers for their family. I would suggest their friends could use them as well.

He was headed back to the hospital to be with her and try to come to grips with what is taking place.

He states that with prayer and grit, they will overcome this.

I'm not the person who generally posts things like this on the forum, but my heartfelt prayers will be lofted on their behalf this evening and beyond.

I'm sure our fellow FReepers SoFarRight and BlackbirdSST would appreciate the expression of your kind thoughts on this thread this evening and over the next few days.

Please keep them in your thoughts.

On behalf of BlackbirdSST, I thank you in advance.

Psalm 27:5-6 "For in the day of trouble he will keep me safe in his dwelling;
he will hide me in the shelter of his tabernacle and set me high upon a rock.

Then my head will be exalted above the enemies who surround me;
at his tabernacle will I sacrifice with shouts of joy; I will sing and make music to the Lord."



Psalm 32:7 "You are my hiding place; you will protect me from trouble and surround me with songs of deliverance."

Holy Father,

We cry out to You on behalf of Your child who has been attacked by disease. We commit this precious woman to You, knowing that You are the God Who heals and Who loves to bless His children. Father, we pray for the complete removal of the cancer from her body, and for her total restoration, for we acknowledge that nothing is too difficult for You. Be with her loving husband and give him an understanding heart as he supports her throughout this trial. Grant them both Your wonderful peace and give them the courage for each new day. We confess that You will supply their every need. Blessed are You, our God! In the Name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

As you face this crisis, know that many are lifting you up to the Great Physician, asking Him for healing, for strength and courage for the days ahead, and for the peace that passes understanding. May you feel the loving arms of the Lord holding you close in His embrace!
