Prayer...

"And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise him up. If he has sinned, he will be forgiven. Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective."
James 5:15-16 (NIV)


Lord, watch with us over your child Alex, and grant that she may be restored to that perfect health which it is yours alone to give. Only You know what is going on inside her body, and only through you may she be healed. Please help her body to fight this and guide us as her parents and also her doctor to know what she needs at this time. Thank you for your continued protection and that the illnesses have not gotten serious. I cast my anxieties and trust that you are in control. Amen.

  1. Oh Amy! There is nothing worse than sick kids. I will be praying for her. We love Dr. Keller at ears, nose, throat if you need a specialist. I guess that I take comfort in knowing that every illness she gets now, will be one less when she is in school. Not that it helps much now. We have a family remedy of putting Vicks vapor rub on the bottom of their feet at night. It does really seem to help. We are praying!!!

  2. I take comfort in that as well, at least now I can stay home with her too when she is sick, if she were in school and I was working it would be so much harder! Thanks for the recommendation!
