Prayers for Johnny, his daughter and grandkids.
Kneemail sent. You will beat this brotherman. Besides, we have to go hog hunting like we promised! Love you.
Johnny,
You are in my prayers, brother.
Very sorry about your situation. I hope that you are getting the best medical care available. Praying for a full and miraculous recovery.
I would advise JRF that to yield to God is to learn to have a character through which God flows. Our human philosophizing (and JRF had a whole lot of that) grandly fails there. It should be surprising if it did not grandly fail.
I do not believe any tragedy occurs without a context. God is still on His throne. We can learn lessons in yielding to God in tragedy or we can hotly rebel. It’s up to us.
Prayers continuing for you, my brother.
We need you here...for your wisdom, and your friendship. Lord, make that boy right....keep and heal our Johnny.
Besides....we still need to give Cornyn the boot ;-)
May God bless and keep you and your family Johnny.
Oh my goodness.
Please, God, have mercy upon this man and give him strength to fight this battle through to remission.
God speed Johnny. I’ve always enjoyed your posts, and pray that I will continue to enjoy them for many more years!
God Bless you, Johnny. I’ll pray for you.
Prayers up
Notre Père qui es aux cieux,
Que ton Nom soit sanctifié, que ton règne vienne,
Que ta volonté soit faite sur la terre comme au ciel.
Donne-nous aujourd'hui notre pain de ce jour.
Pardonne-nous nos offenses, comme nous pardonnons aussi à ceux qui nous ont offensés.
Et ne nous soumets pas à la tentation, mais délivre-nous du mal.
Car cest à Toi quappartiennent le règne, 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!)

The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in Him, and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise Him.
