May I ask for prayers again...

There is nothing that tests one's faith more than having a child ill - even if they are an adult. And in this case it is one of my adult children who needs to undergo an MRI, and an MRA and it will be several weeks before we know the results - possibly early August.

Until then we will be hoping and praying for the best results and worrying about the possible worst while we struggle daily to leave it all in God's capable hands.

"Gentle Jesus - healing physician, lay your hands on my child's body and bless this child. If anything is wrong - heal it. Breath on the soul of my child and bless her soul and help her not to worry too much. Hear our prayers and bring us closer to you as we wait for the results of these tests.

Guide the hands of her human physicians and also help them to will see her as a whole person and help them to heal her in whole.

Amen"

I will keep you posted, but I do not expect to have news before early August. Thank you all for your prayers, and also thank to all of you who have congratulated on us our new home. Pictures to post soon - if I can just find my camera - which is in the diaper bag... somewhere!

PS... that is a dear and wonderful prayer.
Did I ever tell thee about my family night time prayer. It might give thee a smile as thee waits for news.

Gentle Jesus, meek and mild
look upon this little child
pit my simplicity
suffer me to come to thee...
then all the God blesses...

When I was a wee one, I wondered why I had to suffer to come to Him, and why we asked Jesus to pity mice, and what was plicity.
- pity mice and plicity... -
Thee must know, so many of both our faiths ( which as there is one God, is really in His eyes the same faith ) are praying for thy dear one, a great soul that she is.

Thine dearly in the light
