death is in the air . . . but the victory is the Lord's

 Seems like so many people I know have family members diagnosed with cancer or just plain dying.  How does one pray?  What to pray for? 

In my family, I praise God that He's saved both of my grandfathers.  That in itself is merciful and a great blessing to my family.  Thank You, God.  Continue to give us strength, especially for the primary care givers who are now feeling suddenly empty inside and a bit more purposeless.  My mom for her dad (Hsiao side) and my 6th aunt for her dad (Chiu side).  Thank You for the peace that passes understanding that I see in their faces, a peace that speaks of knowledge that You are in control.  Thank You for all the people who are praying for my family.  God, in times like I see the community I long for within the Body of Christ in full swing and operating, because You are the Head.

I pray for my friend's dad who has been diagnosed with gallbladder cancer.  God, I pray for the salvation of his dad.  May You somehow redeem this terrible situation, draw him near to You.  Reveal Yourself to him, that he may come to know You as Savior and Lord.

I continue to pray for Dennis.  Please heal him internally. 

Amen.
