I've been asked by another, different family member (Penny) who survived breast cancer 21 years ago but has had it return this week to post a prayer request here. Penny is a woman of faith who believes in the power of prayer in a big way. Thus this request. Please pray for wisdom, comfort and competent physicians. Thank you.
The words that Rachel Held Evans and Matthew Paul Turner have put together, paint a beautiful picture (actually a bunch of them) of who God is, how God loves, and the place each one of us can find inside those arms...
St. Patrick was a follower of Jesus hundreds of years ago and was known for many things, one of which being this prayer. These words, written so long ago, still ring true today. When you struggle to find the words, allow this prayer to become a reflection and connect with the presence of Christ all around you.
I want you to do nothing but notice your breathing for the next few seconds. Now I’m going to ask you a weird question… do you think breathing is something that you do, or something that happens to you?
