Day of Prayer for Sydney



Today we are having a Day of Prayer for Miss Sydney. I am asking all of you ladies to be in prayer today! I am sending out prayer emails to each of you and we will use them as a tool to be able to pray together. Let's go ahead and start now...






Heavenly Father, we praise you Lord for all you have been doing for Miss Sydney, we ask you Lord to be with her and comfort her today. We know that you have a blessed plan for this little girls life and we are so excited to be able to be a part of that. We pray Father that you will bless her Doctor's and give them the wisdom and everything they need to be able to work toward her healing, we know God that we cannot do what needs to be done to fix our Sydney and we ask that you guide us in what we can do and we pray that you will take care of the rest. Be with her family and help them to always rely on you. We ask that you keep her comfortable and help her to not be in pain. In your Son's Holy Name we pray...AMEN!!

Happy Monday!!

I have been in prayer today about what to post on our blog...for the last few weeks little Sydney and her family has been on my mind. I have spoken with Mine Sandy to see what I can do and she always tells me the same thing, "Just pray", so my family and I have decided to do a Day of Prayer for Sydney. On Thursday August 25th, my family is dedicating so much time throughout our day to pray for Sydney and her family. We will be praying specifically for successful testing and surgery. We are praying that the Lord will continue to give her doctor's the knowledge in medicine to work toward her healing. We will also be praying for her pain to be minimal and for Chad, Sandy and the children to be able to continue to have a peace about the road ahead. We love them so much and we know that God has that sweet girl Sydney in His hands. I just think that we all need to support them in every way that we can and what better way to do that than to be in prayer for them. I knew you Ladybugs would participate! I love you girlies so very much!

Sandy~ We all love you and adore your family! Even though we aren't just minutes apart anymore, you are still very important to our prayer group! Love you Sister!!


I will be emailing most of you in the prayer group and we will exchange prayers back and forth on the 25th!

Tara~ I know you don't have internet access that morning so I will be calling you and we will pray together by phone!

Memaw~ I know you are at work that day so I will call you too!

In Him We Remain,

Happy Monday!


Good Morning Ladybugs!! I have to keep my post short and sweet today! This is our 1st day of Homeschool!!! Yay!! I am so excited to pour God's Word into my girls and watch them transform into God following gals of God! This was a BIG step of faith for Roy and I. Please say a prayer for us today as you girlies go about your busy work days! Let's get started on a little devotional shall we?

Ephesians 3:20
Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within us... (NASB)

Jesus just fills me up! Overflowing!!!! I love that about my Jesus!! He does more than we could ever ask or think! Really read that girls. Jesus is able to do above and beyond what our human "fleshly" minds could ever think of. But there is something important that we need to see here. This is according to the power that works within us. How much of you does Jesus have? Are you in His Word every day, reading and praying and really getting to know Him? What goes into us is what comes out. I always think in terms of food. If I sit and eat Birthday Cake all day long...we all know what is coming out right? So, I was thinking this morning…I want to consume the Word of God to the point that I get plumb fat on it!! Let’s go on the Word of God diet! Three to six servings a day Ladybugs!! Get your daily servings!! Hehehehe!! I know your gettin’ a kick outta this Debbie..shew…anyway..
I was watching Beth the other day and she said something that has stuck with me. She said that she has a new technique for conversing with God. I just adore her! She takes her daily devotional verse from one of her Bible software’s, or you could just use any verse that you want... (GOOGLE daily devotions for women. Be careful though some sites are not very safe) then take that or those verses of scripture and copy and paste to a Word Document. While you are reading your verse, talk to God about that verse, example, “Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly, Lord, I love that you are big enough to do more than I can Father, beyond all that we can ask or think, My mind cannot comprehend the power than you have Jesus..Do you see what I am doing here? I just thought this was an awesome way to talk to God and actually be able to journal what we are talking about together! Oh! And make sure that you change your color your typing in so that you can look back and see what Jesus said and what you said! Love you girls so very much!!!

Praying for you gals today!!
In Him I Remain,
Shana
