Keeping your father, you and your whole family in my prayers.

It is difficult being so far away and I know you want to be there with them.

Your prayers are reaching the one who can do all things.

May he grant you comfort as you go through this struggle.

I did sense some anger earlier this month.

I am so sorry to hear that this is the reason.

I will pray about these things.

[Grammy]

Prayer is good, for the one doing it and the one receiving it. I pray for both you and your father, that the presence of the Lord would be overwhelming and comforting... In Jesus Holy name.

Heartfelt prayers to you and yours....

Prayers for your father and family.

You’re one of my favorite posters, always with something interesting to say, and I hope you know how much we back in the States value your observations.

It is very hard to be far away when things like this are going on, but sometimes it’s unavoidable. Prayers for you, as well!

Absolutely sending prayers. God bless you and your family. I know you’re concerned being so far away. Psalms 55, verse 22 helps me and I’ll share it with you: “Cast thy burden upon the LORD and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved.” Remember the Lord will never give a us a burden too big that we can’t handle if you only share it with him. He’ll give you the strength.

Prayers up for Expat's dad and family.

Notre père, qui êtes aux cieux!
Que votre nom soit sanctificié. Que votre règne vienne.
Que votre volonté soit faite, sur la terre comme au ciel.
Donnez-nous aujourd'hui notre poindre ce jour.
Pardonnez-nous nos offenses, comme nous pardonnons aussi a ceux, qui nous ont offensés,
et ne nous soumetez pas à la tentation, mais délivrez-nous du mal.
Car c'est à toi qu'appartiènne, le régne, la puissance et la gloire, pour les siècles des siècles.
Amen.

Je vous salue, Marie, pleine de grâces,
le Seigneur est avec vous, vous êtes bénie entre toutes les femmes,
et Jésus le fruit de vos entrailles est béni.
Sainte Marie, Mère de Dieu, priez pour nous pauvres pécheurs,
maintenant, et à l'heure de notre mort. Ainsi-soit-il.

Garde la Foi, mes amis! Nous nous sommes les sauveurs de la République! Maintenant et Toujours!
(Keep the Faith, my friends! We are the saviors of the Republic! Now and Forever!)

Joining your FReeper family in prayer as we uphold your beloved Dad before the Throne of Grace. May the Spirit of God give ease and calm to your heart ... may the healing hand of the Great Physician restore your father to a measure of health, and may your family be strengthened in the hours and days ahead.

“Be strong and of a good courage ... be not afraid ... for the Lord your God is with you, wherever you go.” Joshua 1:9
