Many prayers needed

There are many prayers needed not only for today but this weekend and the coming week.

One of my virtual buddies, Becki, is in the hospital. Her and her husband have become good friends over the past several years of working together on projects. They are not sure what’s wrong, so I’m praying the doctors will be able to figure out what’s wrong and that she’ll be healed quickly and return home.

Another of my virtual buddies, Karen is at the hospital with her mom. Her mom is potentially facing heart surgery to open up some blockages or bypass them. They are not sure that her mom can withstand the surgery, but there’s a chance of her having a stroke if she doesn’t have the surgery.

Last but definitely not least, another of my virtual buddies (this one I’ve met in real life a few times though!) is on her way to India. Ya’ll, when I met Robin at She Speaks last year I was drawn into her presence. She makes you feel safe — she’s the kind of person that you know will listen to your deepest darkest secrets and not only keep them secret, but not judge you as well. Yes, you can know this within minutes of meeting her for the first time. She’s the kind of gal who can take one look at the pain in your eyes and drag you off to the bathroom in a Mexican restaurant to pray.

While we were at She Speaks last year though, Compassion International had a booth setup. Robin mentioned that she desperately wanted to go on a Bloggers trip that they do. When Shannon @ Rocks in my dryer told her they were looking for some to go to the Dominican Republic, she went over to the table and expressed her interest. She wasn’t chosen to go on that trip, but she was, however, chosen to go on this trip to India…the one they left for today. I know she was nervous about the 15-hour flight to get there and what she’d see and how she’ll convey all that. I know God’s going to use her in a mighty way. Her writing style is so descriptive and so well done.

Please pray for the whole team and follow their updates.
