As I write, three people my family knows are seriously ill. We are praying for Blessed Mother Marianne Cope and Blessed Damien's intercession for healing. May all of you be healed.EC Gefrohhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06821950576683551325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3509491571912284306.post-9502639647173189502008-12-02T21:56:00.000-05:002008-12-02T21:56:00.000-05:00Nancy, this is the first time I have read your blo...Nancy, this is the first time I have read your blog. Praying for you to get through your chemo okay, and for this to be the last one. Coincidentally my supervisor at work started what is hopefully his last round of chemo yesterday. I know it can get pretty rough, hang in there!Melody Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00442985285647041700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3509491571912284306.post-85136769355549335852008-12-02T17:05:00.000-05:002008-12-02T17:05:00.000-05:00I hope all is going well with your last chemo.

I almost left you a message just to let you know I was thinking about you and your post-chemo night. I had wanted to leave a brief 'hi, goodnight, hope all is ok' message, too, but decided I might be making a nuisance of myself. Then, lo and behold, I checked my site also and found your most welcome note. Thank you! <BR/><BR/>You raised a thought about 'praying for self'... hmmm...I'm thinking... You HAVE TO pray for yourself as one of your Lord's servants in this world. It's an obligation as well as a privilege. 'Prayer for self' can seem unpalatable or distasteful for many reasons, all of which is chaff. You might ask: WHO is it that counts on your fitness for your work and for Jesus' work through you? Jesus does. And WHO is it that would wish you unfit for your work and for Jesus' work through you? The deceiver does. WHO is influencing you when you struggle with this question of 'prayer for self'? You might give the question directly to Jesus, Himself, in prayer. He'll step you through 'prayer for self' as it relates specifically to you, what He wants of you, and wants you to know, and how He wants you to pray, etc. I suspect you might be surprised at just how bold you'll be led to be - be it on behalf of yourself, your children or husband, your parish or town, or the very Kingdom of God. Moment by moment and day by day, Jesus is the most wonderful companion and advisor. DO tell Him what you want (desires) and what you don't want (fears) in prayer because it is there, your vulnerabilities, that He can get down to brass tacks with you and guide you and strengthen you and use you to your full and joyful potential. <BR/><BR/>Oh Nancy - apologies in advance if this is unwelcome or too long-winded for your taste.<BR/><BR/>+ in Jesus' Name, aspiring +aspiring...https://www.blogger.com/profile/10825316824097996382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3509491571912284306.post-2574184299162835342008-12-02T01:02:00.000-05:002008-12-02T01:02:00.000-05:00I will be praying for your intentions in the days ...I will be praying for your intentions in the days and weeks ahead.
