A Very Special Prayer Request

Below is two emails sent to me from a dear friend I went to school with. If you would kindly add him to your prayer list I would be so honored and grateful.  I know Jay would be honored and so thankful as well. God hears our prayers an answers each one. Where two or more are gathered there He is in the midst of thee. Thank you for taking the time to add to your payers. I will be posting updates as Jay sends them out. So you will know how he is doing. He gave me permission to share this prayer request publicly on here. Please feel free to add him to any of your prayer lines. Thank you!

NKJV

Philippians 4:6

Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your request be made known to God,

James 5:15

And the prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.

1st email

Faith is not necessary when you know how things are going to work out, - that's knowledge. It's in the time of unknowing that having faith is what sees you through to the other side. Faith is what gives you strength. Faith is that light in your heart that keeps on shining even when it's all darkness outside. Now is the time to keep that faith alive! 

I have set o [a special friends email list so to send you updates on my upcoming transplant surgery.

"Thank you" for all of your prayers and support. As the date draws closer (March 20th) I ask that night keep my donor Barbara lifted up as well. Continued prayers for financial and insurance coverage as well as there is a big need for this om boyj parts. Things are looking OK and I pray that remains. 

I wanted to send this out as a test run to make sure I have current email addresses and can send to everyone without it be halted by Yahoo as spam. I will be sending notices "BCC" so if you wish to forward to others, please do. I have already had to cut down the number so Yahoo will deliver the email. I guess that’s the drawback of being so popular! LOL that is "Lots Of Love" in this case =) 

While I am fatigued. overall I am doing time. Some days are better than others. It is a blessing to be retired; it has benefited my health a great deal. I look forward to having renewed energy =) 

I go into UC Davis Med Center on Monday March 10th for the heart cath procedure and if all goes well, the next day on the first day of spring; transplant! New beginnings, growth, and sunshine~ not sure how long I will be in the hospital. 

I'll be in touch,

Peace, Love and Blessings
