"I was informed today that my cousin's son Jordan, a corporal with the U.S. Marines, was wounded in a combat in Iraq and is being flown to Germany for surgery. Please say a prayer for Jordan and his parents David and Delene."
Update at post #89:
Hello to everyone, This is an update on Jordan...from a e-mail from my Aunt. I want to thank you all for your prayers.
"As you all know Jordan has been in Fallujah with the Marines. We got the news yesterday (Friday) that he has been wounded and after a couple of surgeries
for injury to his hands, forearms, feet and legs is on his way to a hospital in Germany. Jordan, himself, made the phone call home and said he had gotten some sleep, was eating and is not in pain. That is all we know at this point.
Delene called the Red Cross and was told that if she had not heard in 36 hours (Sunday afternoon) to call back and they would get involved for information.
Please, please say a special prayer for him."

Blessed Heavenly Father,
We place before you the one known to us a Jordan. His arms and legs were wounded recently and reports to us are sketchy, but we understand he is conscious. He states that his pain is being managed well. We are so grateful for this news.
Father, we ask that you will enter into his entire consciousness, being and world. Comfort him at all levels of his being, body, mind, soul, and spirit. Heal him at all of those levels. Enter into the cellular structures of the injured tissues and maximize the healing potentials. Overshadow the doctors, nurses, and medical professionals working with him. Let all surgeries, medications, physical therapy, nutrition, antibiotics, pain therapies and all other interventions be 100% effective. Minimize any and all detrimental side effects of his medications.
Heal his heart of any and all burdensome effects of what he may have seen or had to do in order to fulfill his duties and obligations in battle. Surround him with a very special team of angels to minister to him at all levels with abundant portions of your mercy.
We place on the altar David and Delene and his entire circle of family and friends. Assist them while they hold vigil for him. Grant them extraordinary ability to support him in the all the different ways he needs them. Grant them wisdom and insight. Grant them courage and compassion. Grant them healing while they go through the anguish of seeing their loved one suffer.
For those of us who send our prayers and love to Jordan and his family, grant us the ability to grow in the ways of your Higher Law. Let our prayers for Jordan be maximized to include all our precious young people and their loved ones in a similar situation. Help us to daily become better instruments of thy Peace. Grant that as we spend more time in communion with you that our prayers may become more acceptable in thy sight.
We ask that your divine Will shall be done in all things.
Amen
