Prayers Needed....

I have things to post and catch you up on but I need a Prayer Favor from you guys first. Well actually I need a few. I'm home from work this week with a nasty respiratory infection so I thought I'd take a few minutes while I'm coherent to fill you in on the last week. I hate reporting sad news but these folks need some extra thoughts and words sent up to our Lord for comfort....

First, The Feltman/Lowery families out of Berry, AL need our love and prayers as they lost a precious life this past week. Michelle Lowery Feltman passed away unexpectedly after a surgery on her ankle. She leaves behind a husband and precious 8 year old daughter. I've met Michelle several times at my cousin's children's birthday parties. She had a special love of life that you could feel from just being around her. We always had conversations about having the same maiden names (Michele Lowery & Michelle Lowery). Anyway, there are a lot of folks hurting because of her loss. I hope they can find the strength and comfort needed and that her sweet daughter can find the peace and answers she must need right now.

Second, The Stanfield family needs prayers for the loss of their daughter/sister Sarah Stanfield. I did not know Sarah but I did grow up with her brothers at Homewood Church of Christ. She was only 26 years old and I know they too need the Lord to surround them and love on them.

Finally, I am asking that you pray for a friend of mine's daughter. I've talked about her before. Back in November she had surgery on both of her legs. She is still in a lot of pain and she and her parents desperately need answers and comfort. Her name is Bailee Bryant. I went to high school with her mom/dad and they are a precious family!

Thanks guys. I know the power of prayer and believe in it strongly. So I'm gonna hit my knees in a few then head off back to bed to rest. Have a nice day and stay warm in all this cold weather!

Maybe it will snow. I'm not a big fan but everyone else around here is.

Thank you for your sweet words. It hit me the other day when I got off of the phone with you and Brady asked me who I was talking to. I said Michele....Hicks. It's so hard to believe the need to specify which one is not there any more. I don't know if I can stop doing that.
