Prayer Thread for longtime Freeper YELLOW ROSE OF TEXAS

[TEXOKIE]

Longtime Freeper, YELLOW ROSE OF TEXAS will be having some delicate spinal surgery performed tomorrow, Tuesday, January 27, 2003 at Presbyterian Hospital in Dallas, Texas. She has requested prayer support from her many friends here at FreeRepublic.

She wanted me to ask that no cards or flowers be sent. Instead, if you feel so moved, please donate to Free Republic or to some effort in support of President Bush's moves in the War on Terrorism. She also stated that there is a critical need for blood these days, so donating blood in her name would also be something she'd be grateful for.

Dallas and local Texas Freepers have her permission (and mine!) to contact me for particulars in freepmail.

LOL!! OH MinuteGal! Thanks for singing our Yellow Rose's song! Thanks for your prayers!

[TEXOKIE]

Thanks for your warm words, FrogMom! It is completely my honor that I am able to do this for her right now. Fortunately I have not had the need, but I know that she would do it for me in a heartbeat, or see that it got done!!

Dear Lord,
I lift up 'Yellow Rose of Texas' in prayer. I pray that You guide everyone involved in the surgery every step of the way and help her recover fully and restore her health. Bless her and her friend 'TEXOKIE' for caring so. We know You are with us always, Lord.
I pray in Jesus' Precious Name, Amen.

((((((((((((HUGS))))))))))) to you both. Chong

"We ask that you will take the love which we hold in our hearts for this friend and surround her with it as a swaddling garment of comfort and light. We place all of our prayers on the altar and ask that they done according to thy will and only thy will."

Can't add any to yours, just wanted to repeat it. I know Our Father hears our prayers. (((((((HUGS))))))))) back at you and to all who prayed. God bless you.

Father, be with those who will care for Yellow Rose of Texas, whether that care be in body, mind, or spirit. Let their vision be keen, let their minds be clear, let their hands be steady, and let their spirits be at peace.

Father, be with her family. Grant them your peace that passeth all understanding. Shield them from all anxiety.

Father, be with Yellow Rose of Texas. Grant her the wisdom to do what is best for her health after surgery; grant her the patience to put up with whatever side effects may come; and grant her the grace to continue ever closer towards you in this life.

I lift this prayer in the Name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, Amen.
