Please see prior post for another prayer concern. Sorry to cover it up.

Some of you may remember Ellie who posted here for quite some time. Anyway, I got an email asking her to post this:

I have not been on the site in ages and do miss it - I need your prayer power
Ryan Major - who is a very close friend of Corey and Michael's and lived with us for a while, was critically injured in Iraq on 11/10 - he has been flown to Walter Reed,
has lost a leg and is in a drug induced coma but the injuries are still considered critical - Michael and Corey went to Walter Reed today and came home very sad
He has a whole body cast - Please pray the God will work his miracles on this young man.

This gives me chills every time I read it. And this is only one of our wounded soldiers. Please hold those and thier loved ones in prayer. Thanks so much.

Just prayed for him.

HOME OF THE FREE - BECAUSE OF THE BRAVE.

Praying for this young man and all our young men and women.

Thanks Hannelore and Chatty. Anyone else?

I just read this. He has my prayers as well. I kept thinking as I was reading it, this could be my son. God love him and surround him!

My prayers go out to Ryan and his family. I'm about to go in and wake my son up for work and I know I'll give him a big hug knowing I'm lucky to have him safe in my home. I pray for all the troops in harm's way and their families who are staying strong for them.

P.S. Thank all of you who prayed for my friend's son who was on his way home from Iraq four long months ago when they announced that his term had been extended... Well... the four months is nearly over and my friend leaves for Alaska next friday to see him arrive back in the states... What a wonderful thanksgiving gift.

Donna, I am so happy for that reunion. The timing is terrific.

Donna-Blessings amidst the sadness of injuries and loss of servicemen and women. How thankful we should be for having our loved ones safe. May we always pray for those in harms way.

I'm praying for Ryan, his family and all our troops. In spite of the pictures we see, the stories we read, it's not even close to what they endure out there. May God keep them safe.

Amen to that, Amen! Can you believe that there are soldiers who lost their leg and still want to go back and finish the job? Amazing! God has truly Blessed this Nation.

I love you all alot!

My prayers too, absolutely.
