Re: Prayer Requests
I'm glad you had the opportunity to do that, JC. It's often not easy to stand in the room with someone from whom you've been long estranged but in doing so there is at least a chance to reconnect. May God bless you both.
I haven't spoken with my stepdad in maybe 5 years and my stepsister called yesterday to let me know he was in really bad shape in a rehab facility. He had a stroke 5 years ago, but since then he's had his legs amputated and is fully blind. I went to see him tonight and he's mentally handicapped as well, talking nonsensically the whole time. I was just wondering how a person could be in worse shape, so please pray for him. The one good thing I took from my visit was that he didn't seem to believe in God before, but he mentioned God/Jesus on several occasions and at one point said the sweetest, most sincere prayer I think I've ever heard when he thanked God for all he had left. I don't even think he realized I was in the room when he said it.
