I would appreciate prayers for my folks. They are in mid 70's and Dad is suffering a type of Parkinson's that leaves him weak and child-like. Mom is his constant care - giver and it worries me. She is beginning to look more frail. My sister lives closer than I do, and Mom doesn't want to concern me with things since she feels I am always taking care of folks at my church.

Dad has always been a humble Christian leader and tough farmer; in that order. Mom has been a farm wife and worked with the kids at church as well as crafts and all the meals that came up along the way.

Please pray she keeps her strength to be able to care for him at home until she is ready to accept some help with him.
Thanks, Dave

It seems to me that prayers on your own behalf won't hurt either. If you've read my posts then you know I work in a "health and rehab center" or nursing home as it used to be called.

I regularly encounter people having to deal with the issues of parents aging or illnesses that cause permanent problems. It can be difficult knowing when to offer help and what assistance will be accepted.

Folks, we need to do some serious prayer for America. My husband and I aren't on the internet often or watching television, so when I heard about the fatal shooting that took place in Dallas a few days ago I was in total shock and filled with sorrow. There is so much division in the country and so much hatred that it makes me fear for my family (especially those who we live away from). I know this is a touchy subject so I just want to make two points-
1.) Pray for unity in the country and for the safety of our families
2.) Protect your family

I leave it at this, but I want you to know I have said a special prayer over those here and I am praying for the nation as well. Please join me in doing the same in these difficult times.

@Samantha drawz - How is your grandfather doing?
And @Hens and Roos - What about your dad, is he doing better?
@ldawntaylor - Hoping that the burn on your hand has healed up! How is your neighbor doing that lost his wife?
@TAH - Praying over the three young men who may be headed the wrong way. There's a lot of folks like this out there, separated from God and lost. I hope they find themselves and straighten out.
@Pastor Dave - Praying over your folks and that your mother has strength in her caregiving. I can understand your worries, so I pray for the worries you may have in your mind as well.
@Poka_Doodle - I will make sure to say a prayer over those being affected by wildfires. I cannot imagine what they are going through.
