Please be in prayer for our sister in Christ, Betty Brooks. Betty went in to a small hospital in Ms. yesterday for a fairly routine procedure on her heart, done through the veins under her armpit.. Things did not go as planned and it turned into open heart surgery. Long story short, she is on a heart pump machine and they cannot get her stable for transport to a another hospital that has the equipment that she needs. Only an intervention from the Lord is going to help at this point. Betty is a Bible believing Christian. Her and her husband are the hosts of our Thursday night Bible study in their home, and are truly God loving, wonderful people.

This life is a test. The longer we survive, the more we are tested, until God feels we are ready.
We must cherish each day we have with our loved ones, and remember only the good times when they are taken away.
You must remember that she has no more pain, no more sickness, and she is waiting for you. We all have family that we want to see again.
For this reason, we must stay the course. In their remembrance, and in hope of future joys to come, we need to carry on.
Our hearts are truly with you. May you feel God’s presence as you pass through this difficult time.
Prayers tomorrow at Ash Wednesday service for her
Prayers for Betty, her family, and those tending her health.
Holy God,
Surely You have borne our griefs and carried our sorrows. We commit Betty’s family to You for Your tender mercies, asking You to send ministers of Your peace and comfort to them. Be with this dear husband who has lost his soul-mate, and help him to know that he will see her again. Father, You are able to turn the darkness of the hour into light. Blessed is Your Holy Name. Through Jesus Christ, Amen.
Offering prayers that God will grant peace and comfort to the husband.
Please, Father, Bless and Comfort this grieving husband as he accepts the loss of his best friend of 40 years. Amen
