Prayer Request

[Gerry]

I am inspired by the request posted by WW, about going it alone. I have been basically a loner all my life and though I have learned tthe value and necessity of building relationships in the Family of God, I seldom call on those to minister to me in prayer. However that makes both me and those denied the priviledge losers.

So to those so inclined I seek prayer support for what we humans call an impossible situation, I shall face in little more than 20 hours from the time of this posting. I need yet another miracle in my life.

Thanks to those who, in their heart, ask God to work His best will in my life.

Gerry,
You are never alone.
God's will be done.
Lord, take care of Gerry. Keep your loving, healing hands around him, and let him know You are right there.

We love you, bro
WW

I am truly overwhelmed. All I can do is say a simple heartfelt thank you, to each and every one of you.

There's this great Rich Mullins song about being a loner. The best part of it was the description of what causes isolation. We don't want to think that it is something, well, bad in us, but this song touched me with truth.

It goes:

Well the night was cold and my heart was
Hidden very safely in a shell
But I knew somehow I'd have to run that risk
Have to open up myself
Look at the stars on the face of the sky
They're the same ones Abraham saw
Come under my wings I will make you shine
Give you strength enough to love

Oh, now I'm getting strong enough
You helped me chip my way out and open myself up
And for the snow that comes with winter
For the growth that comes from pain
For the joke I can't remember
Although the laughter long remains
For the faith that brought to finish
All I doubted at the start
Lord, I give you praise for all that makes
For the hatching of a heart

Well my face was smooth and featureless
Just like an egg
And if I was moved you would never guess it
By the look upon my face
But You said man looks without but I look within
I can see the love you hide
It's a matter of doubt it's a symptom of sin
It's a problem of too much pride (emphasis mine--for me this part was true)

And I, now I'm opening up wide
Wet feathers pulled out from beneath me
And You're teaching me to fly
For the strength that comes with friendship
For the warmth that comes with hope
And for the love time can't diminish
And for the time love takes to grow
And for the moonlight on the water
And for the bright and morning star
Lord I give you praise for all that makes
For the hatching of a heart

And for the moonlight on the water
And for the bright and morning star
Lord I give you praise for all that makes
For the hatching of a heart
