Thank you for shining brightly. <br /><br />Praying as always for Andrew. <br /><br />His Spirit intercedes for us, what a gift to know when I am weak and wordless, He is strong. Jesus never tires. His prayers are always being presented to the Father. <br /><br />Praise the Lord. He is good. His love endures forever.<br /><br />Love you.Tea with Tiffanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17014131105695691106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6751677754833136966.post-21911437849413328842009-09-04T08:23:19.573-04:002009-09-04T08:23:19.573-04:00My prayers remain for Andrew and as I PRAY I PRAIS...My prayers remain for Andrew and as I PRAY I PRAISE because the LORD is good!

Your blog was one of the first I was drawn to. My heart and prayers go out to you, your precious child, Andrew, and the rest of your family! <br /><br />I'm currently practicing a song by the Booth Brothers, "He Saw it All." It is running through my mind as I read your blog and respond. It reminds us that one touch from the Master is all it takes to be healed. I am praying for that one touch for dear Andrew, that he may be healed and made whole!

Heavenly Papa, please heal Andrew and let him go through chemo and radiation easily and with no or very little side effects. Give Melanie wisdom about other things she can do externally for help speed his healing. Give their family peace when peace doesn't make sense. A calmness when they want to run and scream. You of all are familiar with the pain they are facing. Most of all Lord, draw Andrew closer to you than ever before. May he see You clearer and love you all the more. Thank you for placing Andrew on my heart and mind. Please Father, hear our prayers, our pleas for mercy and deliverance. We will give you all the glory, honor and praise. In Jesus name I pray, according to your perfect will. Amen.<br /><br />Thank you for letting us know how to pray dear one. Maybe you could set up a PO Box or have a business address where we could send Andrew a card or letter? Let me know and let him know he has a woman alot like you praying for him in Georgia and others all around.

Keep being lead in triumphal procession! May Christ flow over you & especially Andrew & spread the fragrance of the knowledge of Him...my 1st memory verse this year!<br /><br />Standing with you for a miracle of healing, zero side effects from chemo & radiation, wisdom in providing him nutritionally & any other external approaches. Believing for PEACE & a deepening of Jesus meeting Andrew right in the center of this 'storm'. (So great to hear about Andrew's spiritual walk.) Praying for the wisdom for doctors, nurses & all involved in Andrew's care & an abundance of compassion & understanding! In faith, we will see this mountain moved in Jesus name! "The Lighthouse of Prayer"<br />blogspot is expecting great praise reports as we & others pray. Love to hear your updates & how encouragement touches you & flows from you back to us with your grateful heart!
