Prayer request for my son

Tomorrow afternoon we are heading to the city (about an hour and half drive away from here) because my oldest son, TJ, is having knee surgery Thursday morning.

If I could ask that you keep TJ in your prayers on Thursday for a successful surgery, and that you keep all of us in prayer for safe travelling - weather is tricky this time of year....

Thanks!

Evie, I just offered prayers for you, your son, and family...for safe travel, fine care, and a speedy recovery. All in the Lord's hands.

You're on my prayer list and will stay there until you tell me otherwise.

Dear Girl! Of course you have our prayers. TJ has been sent prayers and hugs from the South. I also asked that God surround you and your hubby with HIS loving arms before, during and after the surgery.

God's speed on TJ's recover!

Evie, please let us know how the surgery goes.

Evie -- tonight my youngest son was reading from a wee prayer book he had gotten at his first communion. He is usually the one who gets to say prayer before meal -- it's always been his special task -- and he decided he would like to read one prayer from that book each evening.

Well, the one he got to was The Lord's Prayer, only he knows it as "The Our Father," so I don't think he immediately recognized it as the same prayer he's recited aloud with me at bedtime since he could first speak.

I honestly don't think he'd evers SEEN it in print before, and he tends to be a bit of a "careless" reader -- not one to take his time -- and so he began:

"Our Father, who art in Heaven, how loud be thy name!"

It was all I could do to keep from bursting out in laughter, but I didn't. However, what I did do was think about the meaning behind little words like that -- words that escape the lips of the innocent. Surely, there is often more truth behind the words of such as these than we may ever know. After all, one of God's pseudonyms -- if you will -- IS The Word, is it not?

So anyway, I think what Dotsie is trying to say to you, as is everyone else: the voice of love and support shouting in your ear is GOD. As you head off to see to your son's surgery, the voices may sound like ours

Hmm. My keyboard locked up there and I had to re-boot the ol' computer to get the use of it back. Guess I was supposed to shut up!

So I'll just let the thought drop.

*'scuse me*

Evie, how's your boy? How are YOU?
Hugs,
Lil

Garrie, so beautifully written. Love it! Thanks!

I love the idea of it being God's voice but sounding like ours! Sweet!
