My wife's cousin and his wife just split up a couple months ago. They have just found out one of their three daughters has cancer. She is in the hospital now with a tumor in her lung. The prognosis is very bad, I don't remebr the specfic bone cancer she has, but the survival rate is very low. They are doing more tests to see if it's spread, which it likley has if she has a tumor in her lung. They are saying like 25% chance she makes its 5 more years. She is 20. This poor family is going through a lot.
I grew up with my wife's cousin and his wife. I don't really know their kids. I just pray they know Jesus and this pain and suffering is just a step in the road to heaven.

Have she had x-rays / MRI of her neck?
I have a bone spur in my neck that is applying pressure on the nerve that runs below the shoulder blade and into the arm and down to the fingers. From time to time the nerve will flare up and it feels like I have a hot knife stuck in my back around the shoulder blade. Other times there is just a mild tingling in the tip of the middle finger of my hand. The doctor prescribed therapy, because insurance requires that before any other procedures. Therapy didn't help. But my issue is not to the point where I need treatment.

Prayers for your friend, Powder and for your family and their daughter, Dogs.
Further diagnosis has brought better news. She actually has Hotchikins Lynphoma. While still bad news with a long road in front of her. It's much better than what we were originally told.
Please, God, help this family to heal and they can further spread the good news and hope that You bring.
I have a interview in a few minutes with the county for a position, say a prayer for His will.
Praying that You, Oh Lord, will knock these curve balls out of the park. Nevertheless let Your will, not mine, be done.
Prayers for you. Just know that this is all part of His plan for you. Humble yourself and submit to His will.
You will find yourself in a much better place.
You will find yourself in a much better place.
Swing ......Crack!
"Going, going, gone!
It's over the wall! Sounds like it found someone's windshield!"
Prayers that you knock the curveballs, as it were, out of the park.
I was offered the position with the county. I told them I would decide by tomorrow, I don’t do anything like this without talking to Angie.
I think we all need a prayer for Charlie Kirk, students at the college, and Doctors/Nurses/EMTs providing care.
I dunno whereelse to post this, but I think this might be appropriate at this time.

I'm also going to pray for all of us that we find peace and courage to do what is right as many of us (myself included) are extremely angry and frustrated. And that is probably the understatement of the day.

Praise report of a prayer answered in less than a day!
My grandson is having a hard time in kindergarten. None of his preschool friends are in his new school and he just feels alone. He just started wearing glasses, theyre cool glasses and not at all dorky but you know how kids can be.
On top of that, they’re moving back here to the farm and while that is a good thing he is losing his home he is used to.
A mildly autistic kid has been picking on him some. We raised him to not pick on people and as an only child he isn’t used to this behavior. It is entirely foreign and perverse to him. Teacher knows and watches but kids are kids.
He confided in my yesterday when we were alone, quite unexpectedly with tears that “no kids will play with me, and that makes me sad”.
Man talk about heart wrenching.
We prayed right then and there with Liam repeating every word for courage and understanding and for the right friends to be given to him.
My SIL picked him up today and Liam quite nonchalantly told him all about his new friend Alex he met on the playground and how cool he was and that he loved bugs too
Praise you Lord for hearing the faithful prayer of a little boy who has a pure heart. You always amaze me

For Tyler Robinson's family.
I cant imagine what they must be going through, expecially his father.

Sorry for putting in the wrong place a bit ago...I am with my girl @ MedVet Dallas ER - came home from docs appts and my girl Roxy wasn't there to greet me. I found her, panting heavily and clearly not wanting to move; thought she may have bled into her tumor trying to follow me to my doc appt., but then I saw she wouldn't bear weight on her right front paw - "knuckling".
The vet thinks she may have a shoulder fracture from bone metastasis of her hemangiosarcoma. Her first oncology appointment was suppose to be here on October 2... Please pray for Roxy and me. She is all I have left and I'm not ready for her to go.
Edit: Just spoke to vet, my initial impression was correct, she is severely anemic, most likely from a bleed inside the tumor. They are transfusing her now.

Roxy was stabilized overnight with blood transfusions and IV fentanyl; she is heading to the OR now. God already worked a miracle for me to get funding so quickly (5 figures - she has better insurance than me but the pay up front and file), so I believe he can bring her through this as well. I have haters over this, but they don't understand what she means to me.
The above was typed at 2 pm but I just posted it. I just met with the surgeon and had a brief glance of my goofy girl on a gurney post-op with her tongue hanging out but extubated as they wheel her back to ICU. There are still many large nodules in the liver of 2-3 inches, but...the surgeon removed 22 pounds of mostly splenic hemangiosarcoma tumor!! (This thing double in size in a month).
All I wanted was my time with my girl and for her to feel better! Her primary vet dragged on the oncology referral and three vets told me to put her down. I asked surgeons for pics - hopefully tomorrow.
PRAISE GOD!

I could use some prayers.
I am new in my faith. I have recently over the last few weeks been suffering from severe anxiety and depression. Feeling lost and hopeless. I spoke with my preacher yesterday and he believes I’m at a point where I haven’t fully given my trust in the Lord and am being convicted of it by the Holy Spirit. And I believe that is correct.
A lot of past trauma, having to rely on myself has built up this wall that I’m struggling to get over and lay it at the Lords feet and not pick it back up.
I believe, but I then question my belief. I have been asking him to help me in many ways. It’s been very hard. I have trouble even wanting to get out of bed and function.

I have great faith and am a firm believer
And sometimes mental health stuff goes FAR beyond faith as a fix.
I dont still have asthma because my faith and trust isnt fully there.
PMing you brother
And when they came to the disciples, they saw a great crowd around them, and scribes arguing with them. And immediately all the crowd, when they saw him, were greatly amazed and ran up to him and greeted him. And he asked them, “What are you arguing about with them?” And someone from the crowd answered him, “Teacher, I brought my son to you, for he has a spirit that makes him mute. And whenever it seizes him, it throws him down, and he foams and grinds his teeth and becomes rigid. So I asked your disciples to cast it out, and they were not able.” And he answered them, “O faithless generation, how long am I to be with you? How long am I to bear with you? Bring him to me.” And they brought the boy to him. And when the spirit saw him, immediately it convulsed the boy, and he fell on the ground and rolled about, foaming at the mouth. And Jesus asked his father, “How long has this been happening to him?” And he said, “From childhood. And it has often cast him into fire and into water, to destroy him. But if you can do anything, have compassion on us and help us.” And Jesus said to him, “‘If you can’! All things are possible for one who believes.” Immediately the father of the child cried out and said, “I believe; help my unbelief!” And when Jesus saw that a crowd came running together, he rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it, “You mute and deaf spirit, I command you, come out of him and never enter him again.” And after crying out and convulsing him terribly, it came out, and the boy was like a corpse, so that most of them said, “He is dead.” But Jesus took him by the hand and lifted him up, and he arose. And when he had entered the house, his disciples asked him privately, “Why could we not cast it out?” And he said to them, “This kind cannot be driven out by anything but prayer.”
-Mark 9:14-29
For we know that the law is spiritual, but I am of the flesh, sold under sin. For I do not understand my own actions. For I do not do what I want, but I do the very thing I hate. Now if I do what I do not want, I agree with the law, that it is good. So now it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells within me. For I know that nothing good dwells in me, that is, in my flesh. For I have the desire to do what is right, but not the ability to carry it out. For I do not do the good I want, but the evil I do not want is what I keep on doing. Now if I do what I do not want, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells within me. So I find it to be a law that when I want to do right, evil lies close at hand. For I delight in the law of God, in my inner being, but I see in my members another law waging war against the law of my mind and making me captive to the law of sin that dwells in my members. Wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death? Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, I myself serve the law of God with my mind, but with my flesh I serve the law of sin.
-Roman 7:14-25
It's normal to have doubts.
Now Thomas (also known as Didymus[a]), one of the Twelve, was not with the disciples when Jesus came. So the other disciples told him, “We have seen the Lord!”
But he said to them, “Unless I see the nail marks in his hands and put my finger where the nails were, and put my hand into his side, I will not believe.”
A week later his disciples were in the house again, and Thomas was with them. Though the doors were locked, Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you!” Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here; see my hands. Reach out your hand and put it into my side. Stop doubting and believe.”
Thomas said to him, “My Lord and my God!”
Then Jesus told him, “Because you have seen me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.”
- John 20:24-29
Here's a lesson that I learned a long time ago.
What takes more faith; walking on 2 inches of ice on a frozen lake or 2 feet of ice on a frozen lake?
In other words, you would only need a very little faith to walk on 2 feet of ice. You would need a whole lot more faith to walk on 2 inches of ice.
Let's think about this another way. What would you have more confidence in; the 2 inches or ice or the 2 feet of ice?
The 2 feet of ice provides a lot more confidence. Like a lot of people here, I've walked on frozen lakes before. Sometimes I could tell how thick the ice was and sometimes, I couldn't.
Nevertheless, I walked on these frozen bodies of water even though I didn't know how thick the ice was. Why would I do something as foolish as that?
On the surface (no pun intended) that would appear rather foolish of me walking on an frozen body of water without knowing how thick the ice was.
However, there were other factors in my decision to walk on the ice. First of all it was extremely cold! That tells me a lot; especially if it had been cold for a long time. This would increase the likelihood that the ice was thick enough to support my weight.
Another reason was the historical record and experience. I knew from previous years when the temperature got well enough below the freezing point and stayed there long enough, the water surface would freeze sufficiently and thick enough to support my weight.
Last but not least was when I saw other people walking on the ice, putting up ice fishing huts or skating.
That's a long way of saying there were other factors that inspired my confidence in the thickness of the ice underneath me.
So what you might really be looking for is more confidence in the Jewish Carpenter who saved you. The biggest confidence builder is the Holy Spirit.
There are other confidence builders such as the Bible. Evil people have tried to destroy it for thousands of years, yet it is the best selling book the world over. It has survived the test of time and persecution.
Look at nature around us. The works of the Lord didn't just happen by chance! If God can create the universe out of nothing, don't think He couldn't raise His Son from the dead in three days! Don't think He couldn't save you! Don't think that He won't be able to raise you from the dead unless the rapture occurs first!
Look at the scientific evidence. Everyday there's some scientific event that points to an infinite, all-knowing, all-seeing and all-powerful Creator.
Archeologists are pulling stuff out of the dirt, all the time, that shows that the Bible is true.
Look at the changed lives of other people that He has saved. That's a big confidence builder right there. Lot's of evil people, throughout history have come face-to-face with Jesus Christ, have bowed the knee and done a complete 180 degree turn in their lives.
Some of these people are the ones that you would think it would be impossible to save but it has happened.
When David killed Goliath, he had faith (confidence) in an all-powerful God. Now it's true, he had killed sheep killing lions with his slingshot before. So he also had confidence with his marksmanship.
That marksmanship only goes so far when you are up against a 9 foot tall giant with head and body armor, armed to the teeth with an entire army behind him and cowards behind you!
David needed more confidence and he got it from the Lord. David didn't manufacture that confidence within himself. He got it from spending time with the Lord while tending the sheep and meditating on His word.
In the same way, your confidence will grow when you look at the world around you, study His word and let the Holy Spirit empower & lead you.
Will that confidence grow and shrink? Of course it will. It does with all of us.
Look at the prophet Elijah. He confronted 400 hundred prophets of Baal on Mt. Carmel. There was a contest between his God and the false deity, Baal.
The 400 prophets danced, sang, chanted, cut themselves and did all sorts of stupid acts to get Baal to light the wood to burn up the sacrifice. They tried all day.
Then Elijah had his turn. He had them pour beaucoup buckets of water on the firewood and soaked it pretty good. Then he said a simple prayer of only a few words.
Then the fire of the Lord ignited the pyre for the sacrifice. He had the 400 prophets of Baal killed. The rains came down and Elijah won the downhill race against King Ahab.
Elijah just had a mountain top experience then he got word that Queen Jezebel was going to have him killed. That's like finding out your name is on Hillary Clinton's hit list!
He fled to Mt. Horeb for fear of a wicked bitch in a skirt! The Lord restored his confidence later.
Sorry for the long post but so many of us have had problems with our faith (or confidence) and I wanted to put my two cents in and hope this helps.
Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego had a lot of confidence in the Lord. Charles Laughton recounts this story with great eloquence.

Pm'd you, get in touch, I have a lot of experience with what your going through.
He is correct, I pm'd you as well. Be strong, you WILL get through this or my name isnt Maggot.
When you answer the Father’s call and come to Christ, evil will attack.
You have to quiet those voices by saying get behind me.
Are you in the Word? Really in it, and praying about the Word? If not fix it.
Love you and praying.
