Prayer Thread for Lurking Freeper Texana (TEXOKIE's Sister)

[TEXOKIE]

Thank you for coming by this prayer thread for my sister, Texana. She is a magnificent freeper, although she is in lurking status at this time.

Texana is a high school English teacher. She is NOT politically correct. She does not actually teach the Bible, but she recognizes it as the philosophical and referential basis for most of the American Literature which her juniors are studying.

The first day of class, she makes an announcement that this is her philosophy, and any who do not wish to partake of that particular approach are free to change into another class. But no changes after the first week!

My understanding is that this never happens...the kids stay.

On Monday, March 31st Texana will be undergoing cataract surgery in one of her eyes, she thinks the right eye. It is the kind of cataract which is underneath the lens, not on top of it, like normal people -- you can see she is like Rosie in being different! It's outpatient surgery. The recovery time is supposed to be three days with no complications. She says, "I don't know if I'll be able to see right away or if I'll be wearing a bandage or patch -- I'm hoping for a patch so I can be a Pirate!" (The school mascot is a Pirate.)

Thank you so much for joining me in my prayers for her successful surgery and quick recovery. She states that she really wants to have her eyes work well again because of all the term papers she wants to grade over the next several years!

Our Beloved Heavenly Father,

We place before you my sister Texana who will be having outpatient cataract surgery (we think on her right eye) on Monday, March 31st. Please overshadow her doctors, nurses and any health care professionals who have anything to do with her case.

We call for a routine surgery and no complications. Let Texana and her doctors and nurses all be relaxed and in a very positive, focused, and clear frame of mind approaching and during her surgery. Please help the doctors and nurses follow the sterile protocols perfectly so that there is the minimizing of the risk of infection and complications.

Father, this devoted teacher is in need of functioning eyes to do the grading of those mountains of papers she loves so much. Please intercede and let her eyes heal perfectly at a cellular level in order to accomplish this.

Thank you Father, for hearing our prayers for your servant. Bless her and her family and friends during this challenge. This which we call forth for Texana, we call forth for any and all who are in a similar situation, according to thy will. Amen.

[TEXOKIE]

Of course I'll say some prayers for your sister, Texokie.
Is this TexanaRed whom so many of us prayed for after the Kerrville flood?

Loving and healing prayers going UP!

Thank you for the reassurance about the procedure, r9etb. I know that the docs can truly do amazing things these days. I hold with you the vision that Texana will do very well in this.

Thank you ever so much for your prayers for Texana and petitions for God's blessings on us. I feel fortunate that the Lord has blessed me with the people he has surrounded me with. I am no different from any of the mighty prayer warriors who gather here in the FR Forum. We are so blessed to have this Forum which Jim Rob has seen fit to provide! It is the power of our numbers which is the secret in our effectiveness, imho. I am so very grateful for all the magnificent prayer warriors who have been doing the heavy lifting in this and various prayer threads.

Hello DL!! So good to see you! Thank you for coming by.

I appreciate so much your willingness to pray for Texana, her docs, and her ability to do her work.

[TEXOKIE]

Thank you for your best wishes for Texana, GD!

[TEXOKIE]

Thank you for your prayers and the 3rd John verse, maestro.

[TEXOKIE]

Thank you, NVA.

[TEXOKIE]

Thank you for your prayers, Fred.

I am unaware of it, Fred. We have a brother who was involved in some pretty heavy flooding at one point, (the waters just missed them!) but Texana has not been, to my knowledge.

[TEXOKIE]

Thank you so much, Dubya. We really appreciate it.

[TEXOKIE]

Thank you so much for your prayers, lysie.

My husband has had cataract surgery in both eyes. The second surgery was "fun to do" according to his doctor because the cataract was much deeper than he originally thought. (I'm glad we didn't know that ahead of time.) Hubby does not even have to wear glasses now. He calls the surgery a miracle. I pray that your sister gets her miracle too.

Thank you for your prayer and bump, manna.
