Can y'all pray for Laurie? She's got a brutal, cancerous brain tumor and is not likely to survive the week unless some experimental radiation treatments and steroids eradicate the tumor.
Pray for:
*Effectiveness in the treatment: no swelling in the brain, killing the tumor, and quick recovery
*For creativity from the dr.'s to know how to treat Laurie
* For God's peace to permeate Laurie and her family (three daughters and husband) throughout this process
Praying Psalm 146:6-10 has helped me fortify my heart the last few days: I figured I'd end by sharing it:
Psalm 146:6-10English Standard Version (ESV)
6 who made heaven and earth,
the sea, and all that is in them,
who keeps faith forever;
7 who executes justice for the oppressed,
who gives food to the hungry.
the sea, and all that is in them,
who keeps faith forever;
7 who executes justice for the oppressed,
who gives food to the hungry.
The Lord sets the prisoners free;
8 the Lord opens the eyes of the blind.
The Lord lifts up those who are bowed down;
the Lord loves the righteous.
9 The Lord watches over the sojourners;
he upholds the widow and the fatherless,
but the way of the wicked he brings to ruin.
8 the Lord opens the eyes of the blind.
The Lord lifts up those who are bowed down;
the Lord loves the righteous.
9 The Lord watches over the sojourners;
he upholds the widow and the fatherless,
but the way of the wicked he brings to ruin.
10 The Lord will reign forever,
your God, O Zion, to all generations.
Praise the Lord!
your God, O Zion, to all generations.
Praise the Lord!
Love forever,
Ryan
