Subject: Prayer to be put on the blog..

Nora,

Here is my prayer......

Dear Heavenly Father,

I just want to pray that you will bless our group as they are being your soldiers.. bless them as they give of their time, love and they give the message of hope through your son .. I pray that you will bless the people receiving all of it that they will know without a doubt you are and how much you love them...

I also pray that you will bless all who have given back of what you have blessed them with such as money, items and other things that have made this trip possible. We all know that you have provided all and others have been good stewards .. We are all the body where some can go , some can give, some can create websites/ blog to connect us all, and some can pray. What a privilege it is to all be working for your kingdom..

Asking you, thanking you and praising you , in Jesus name, Amen

Side note: I don't know if we will be able to get back Marla, Lynette and all of those who hold those babies.. From the pictures it looks like they would love to just stay and hold them. They may have to leave them but I am sure they will hold them close in their hearts... Linda

Day 3 PRAYER REQUESTS (posting early since I will be at Believe )

5. Pray for God to use us in anyway necessary.
6. Pray for everyone to be healthy, no sickness!

Father God! You are amazing. You are wonderful! You are everything and we love you so much! Father it is the desire of our team in Haiti to be used by you. Their hearts long to serve you and to respond to the love you have shown them by loving others. We come together through the use of this tool - the internet - and we are brought together as the Body of Christ, to lift up the arms and hands and feet and minds and fingers and every other part of the Body that arrived in Haiti and ask that you would use them in ANY WAY necessary. If it means washing someone's feet or giving a hug. You know the needs of the people, you know the way in which they will each have eyes to see and ears to hear. You know the very thing that might break through the wall of a hard heart... Lord use our team to do that! Whatever your will. And Father as we lift them up and pray for that I can't help but ask you to do the same in all of us, whether we are in Haiti or our living rooms - Lord we can all be used by you. We just have to be willing. And we are. So please God, use us all, let us shine where ever you have placed us and let us bring you glory. Because you are worthy of it!

Father we also ask that you would be the great physician. Specifically for Matt as he left Orlando sick - yet still committed to serve you - make him well Lord. Keep the rest of our team healthy from illnesses that might present while they are serving or any illness they might take home. Place a hedge of protection around them and keep them healthy. Please. We pray all that knowing that you know what is best and that we live in a world that is not perfect so if there is a lesson in the sickness, if there is a way to bring you glory through it, if it is a thorn you choose not to remove then Lord - provide the grace to endure it. We trust you.

In Jesus Name we pray,
Amen.

Day 2 PRAYER REQUESTS

3. Pray for Janeil & Heather Owen, mission directors.
4. Pray (now a praise too) for a safe journey to Haiti and back. PRAY FOR OUR PILOTS!

Father God, our provider!
You are so good. What a comfort to see pictures of our team - having arrived safely. You are so good to hear our prayers. We are so silly to worry. Thank you for being patient with us!

Father we just would ask your special blessing on Janeil and Heather... Father pour out your spirit on them, give them wisdom and understanding... give them resources to accomplish the tasks you have set before them. Father you have not given them a spirit of fear, but a spirit of love and of sound mind. Place a hedge of protection around them and protect them from Satan and his motley crew who come to steal and destroy. Give Janeil and Heather a clear understanding of your will for their lives and the lives of the people they minister to. Bless them richly for their selfless service to you...

And Father we are just filled with awe at your amazing provision, we sing your praises for a safe journey for our 29 loved ones who we left at the airport yesterday. You know it was hard for those of us left behind and you have been so faithful to give us peace. Thank you for the skill of their pilots and drivers... for the strength of their planes and modes of transportation. Thank you for being so patient with us when we have worried about such little things. You are so good and we sing your praises. We find comfort in knowing that you will be in control on their trip home as well and just ask that you would keep every one, the teams leaving NWCM today, tomorrow and every day... we trust you and realize that you do this all the time and we take comfort in your care and wisdom. You are in control of everything O Lord, Everything in the Heavens and the Earth is yours O Lord. That leaves nothing out! Especially our team in Haiti.

May your glory shine today and everyday- through everyone that you have rescued and everyone who has trusted in the blood of Jesus for their salvation! We pray all this in His Precious Holy Name, Amen!

I too, kept checking my computer throughout the evening and finally fell asleep. I was trying to subscribe to my hubby’s motto of “no news is good news” but I will sleep more soundly now!

(I just wish I had checked your blog earlier! )

Many thanks to Robin for her resourcefulness and to you, Nora for your loving thoughts and prayers poured out from that big ole’ heart!

Sleep tight!
