Our Freeper Friend Jeff Head was diagnosed
with a serious (they all are to me) form of cancer
just before Christmas



Please help me approach the prayer throne for our friend Jeff Head who is in Houston currently from his home in Idaho to have surgery & treatment at MD Anderson for his cancer. He will be able to respond on occasion.

You can follow his story & the particulars of the cancer at his blog/HERE

You might know him for many reasons.. His great mind & posts on this forum .. at which he was Freeper of the year in 2001. He is an Activist, Author, Man of God, Devoted Family Man(father of 6; grandfather of 5) and friend to many.

You can find him on line at places other than here.. at Facebook he is Jeff Head

Jeff's Web Page - (check out the neat stickers he sells)

Jeff's FR Profile

Jeff's blog on his Cancer

Father we pray for our friend Jeff. May he find your perfect peace as he continues to trust you with his life. Give the surgeons and medical personnel wisdom and perfect skill in treating him. Please keep him close to your heart as his body responds to treatments and to surgery. Help us to love him as our brother and give support and strength to wife Gail and their large and loving family. In the name of our Savior and Creator. Amen.

Jeff, good buddy, you hang in there! And know that my thoughts and prayers are with you. Praying that our loving God's healing hand guides your doctors and that you swiftly return to health, stronger than ever.

You're a good man and a great American and an enormous inspiration to so many of us. And God still has work for you to do here in this life, I have no doubt!

Today I'll be asking my prayer-warrior sister for assistance -- not only in prayer, but to help spread the word and send in the cavalry of prayer-warriors at Church on your behalf. Prayers up for Gail as well.

Dolly, thanks for posting this thread.

And Jeff, please keep us posted. We love you -- don't forget that.

Enrique

Thanks to each of you, from the bottom og my heart, for your faith, prayers, and thoughts. This battle is just starting for me, and I know myself and mywife and kids and grandkids appreciate every bit of faith and help we receive. God’s will be done...and His will is always best. We each just have to learn what it is, and then accept, follow it, and witness of it.

Heartfelt thanks to you each for your prayers and faith, and kind words and wishes to me and my family.

Words cannot express our gratitutde.

In life, we are not in complete control of the events that overtake us...but we are in control of our response to them, and to the faith and witness we provide to others as a result. I am determined to be a strong wintess of my Savior, of God in Heaven, and of the fundmanetal moral principles that underly true liberty and freedom whatever the circumstance.

For those having difficulty with, or not wanting to be on Facebook, I am keeping the journal on my own site as well:

Jeff's Bone Cancer Journal.

I will be updating again tonight.

Please accept our heartfelt thanks and gratitude for each act of faith, for each prayer, for each kind word, for each word of encouragement, for each good wish for myself and my family from our FreeRepublic family during these circumstances.

We may not control all the things that come upon us in life, but we can determine how we react, and I am determined to seek God's will and Hand in this, and then confess that Hand, give Him the praise, have absolute faith in His will, and then testify of that will to all I can.

In the mean time...we must all keep fighting for our constitutional republic and the liberty that comes from adhereing to the fundamental principles of liberty. For my family, my kids, my grandkids, and generations yet unborn.

To: Jeff Head

Phillipians 4: 8Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. 9Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.
Thanks for Their Gifts
10I rejoice greatly in the Lord that at last you have renewed your concern for me. Indeed, you have been concerned, but you had no opportunity to show it. 11I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. 12I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. 13I can do everything through him who gives me strength.

14Yet it was good of you to share in my troubles. 15Moreover, as you Philippians know, in the early days of your acquaintance with the gospel, when I set out from Macedonia, not one church shared with me in the matter of giving and receiving, except you only; 16for even when I was in Thessalonica, you sent me aid again and again when I was in need. 17Not that I am looking for a gift, but I am looking for what may be credited to your account. 18I have received full payment and even more; I am amply supplied, now that I have received from Epaphroditus the gifts you sent. They are a fragrant offering, an acceptable sacrifice, pleasing to God. 19And my God will meet all your needs according to his glorious riches in Christ Jesus.

20To our God and Father be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

We are humbled by the outpouring of faith, prayers, and good wishes on our behalf and thank our entire FreeRepublic family and each of you individually for it.

God has called us to pass through these experiences and confess His hand, and witness His will in the process and we shall do that full of faith, knowing He and His Son love us, have a perfect knowledge of our condition, and have the abolute best in mind for ourselves, our family, and loved ones.

I am detemined to witness that truth to all I can...and continue fighting for our constitution and republic in the process.

Onc emore, heartfelt thanks to each of you for your acts of faith, your prayers, your kind words and encouragement.

As in all things, God's Hand is in this and I confess that and bear witness to it.

May He bless each of you ten fold, even a hundred fold for the faith, prayers, and kindness you are extending on our behalf at this time.

Gotta go now...but will be back later to continue thanking each member of our FreeRepublic family on this thread.
