The Telemum is fine. This time she cleaned the scratch properly, which she did not do last time, so it was not all Problem Cat's fault the previous time.
Thank you for your prayers for A (see here). I've sent her a get-well card, which was graciously received, and very briefly spoke to her on the phone - she seems ok, considering everything. She may still have to stay in hospital for a bit, but she sounds positive.
I'm afraid I'd like to ask for prayer for myself, for now, too - challenging circumstances here, although I cannot go into detail. Some not easy decisions to take. (Nowt life-threatening, from what I can see, just annoying.)
Thank you, all!
<votive> for A, for further healing and courage, especially with the silly virus going round.
<votive> for all in need, with prayers spoken or unspoken.
Including @Wesley J in my prayers for suffering and anxious shippies.
And could you add stressed clergy to your prayers. With all the decisions regarding services in person or online we have to make and the rules we have to keep abreast of and interpret, at the back of some of our minds (mine, but I know not just mine) is the question: is what I am doing going to help the church re-birth or is it just going to sound its death knell? And that question never gets an answer of course.
🕯Prayers for @Cathscats and all church leaders : that you will guide them and amplify what they do when they follow your guidance, so that all shall be well.
🕯Prayers for J. and all who are in pain, waiting for surgery.
So many in need of intervention. Please dear Master, Jesus, be their comfort and guide and many prayers to the families of the bereaved. Also all prayers to Shippies who ask. May their Best Outcome be assured.
Glory to God for answered prayers and for shippies who pop in to tell us!
Prayers ascending for those on the cancer thread, including @Rossweisse@Robert Armin@idj and @The5thMary. And for those seeking employment in a time of layoffs.
My son has been through such a lot recently with his wife leaving him and uncertainty over his job. His job is safe for now but he’s having to re-mortgage his house in just his name. He has paid his wife off and the divorce is nearly done. But now the mortgage company are being awkward over really small things. He’s just rung up really upset about it all.
I moved around a lot as a child. When I was 11 we came to England from South Africa (by boat, flying wasn’t a thing then) I will never forget waving goodbye to my friends knowing I’d never see them again. After several more moves I ended up at university in London, making very good friends. I also met Mr Boogs at university, and he persuaded me to come to Manchester with him. Once again I left everyone behind.
These feelings are playing into my upset. I’m projecting them on to my son - ‘tho he does feel gutted, he told us. The divorce settlement, job uncertainty and house wrangling have gone on a long time now. He’s not flying today. Pilots are expected to report in sick if they are emotionally wobbly as well as if they are physically unwell.
I so don’t want him to have to sell up. If he did he’d be fine, he could rent for a while then find a house that’s easier to afford. But knowing that doesn’t stop me feeling very weepy.
Praying for all that need our prayers. @Boogie, when my son has faced hard times I find it so much harder to deal with than when it's me. Hope the mortgage company faff is sorted pronto.
A quick prayer for the Telemum would be appreciated - she had a procedure on her eye this afternoon, and just now she smacked that eye with an apron string, very painfully. Please pray no harm was done and that the pain subsides quickly.
Praying for all. Telemum. Boogie Jr. All on the Cancer Thread many hugs and prayers for best outcomes.
May I add my own little request?
Sunday I am leaving Canada for all and for good after finally sorting through my parents' estate and the loss of my daughter. I'm headed for Spain and wouldn't you know it, Andalucia has closed its perimeters for the very day of my arrival.
Though airlines have not advised of interruption of service, can I just ask for prayer that we land on Nov 3rd in Malaga as scheduled?
