Z had chest pains last week and had exploratory surgery at great expense which proved nothing. We pray that her doctor will fax her boss clearance to return to teaching, God willing.

She just got off the phone with a paramedic from the local fire station. He told her to get treatment right away if her chest pains continue! The cardiologist found nothing and we have flushed mass quantities of money down the toilet with nothing found wrong with her. Her pulse is v. low.

I can only hope that this is not the year we are both scheduled to die: her mom died of a heart attack at age 65 but my grand mother lived to see age 94 and her daughter, my aunt Rose, is going to be 93 this year. Aunt Rose has a stent. We thought Z would get one too!

Prayers for Mr Bee from me. His position is one my sister has been in quite a few times, so I have some idea how you both feel.

Also for Ariel's mum, for healing and relief.

May everyone and everything feel, do, and be a bit better, and feel loved.

For me: Today is a Big Thing about whether I get evicted or not. I can't afford to live anywhere else. (And there's a major crisis here in affordable housing.) Please pray for it to go really, really well for me, and for me to get through it ok.
[Eek!] [Help]

Thanks.

Can I please ask for prayers again for my work situation? It is all very complicated and have big decision to make between less-than-good options. Have never been this stressed before (and not because I have had a quiet life so far!)

Rationally, I don't think God gets involved in our human decisions - he has given us the skills to make choices, after all.
But I wish I didn't feel so overwhelmed and lonely right now.

For me: Thanks for the prayers. Meant a lot. I've been given a little more time; but they're still not listening to or believing the basic landlord problems, which are not my fault. So I've got a little breathing room, but the problems haven't gone away or gotten better.

Thanks.

I forgot to mention that Herself had an operation yesterday - she is carrying twins and their placentas were a little small on the scans so they have done something to attach them more firmly to the uterine wall. She is still sore and groggy from the op but it appears to have been a complete success.

I pray today for this strange music, that we hear more of it, that we hear its harmony. The voice of the blackbird is in it, and the river, always moving and modulating.

I'm trying to pray disinterestedly, but Lord, I really want him to hear it.... [Votive]
