The Request

Sometimes on Monday mornings, I get on here and say hello and cut up a little bit about how I hate Mondays. Last night I got on here and did a little bit of that with my little comic strip. This morning, to be honest, I'm not exactly in the mood for all the fun and games. I'm not in a bad mood at all (so don't think I'm just grumpy today) I just want to be serious right now. I will have to be kinda vague here, but suffice it to say, my heart is a little uneasy about something that I need to ask a favor for.

At the beginning of this blog, I mentioned that the inspiration for this came from my brother-in-law, Gregg, who does this for his class. As far as I know, occasionally he looks in on mine to see how it's going. He and his wife, Jeana, are the two we attended the national quartet convention with, and truthfully, I can't think of two people that I could have hand picked that would have been more of a family to me than they have. God truly knew what he was doing when he put Jeremy and myself together. He knew that I would move away and that I'd need a friend. Jeana has been that friend to me and is as dear to me as if we'd been raised in the same family. I love her as if she's another sister to me. I can honestly say, their friendship on the other side of family obligations is priceless to Jeremy and myself.

The reason I tell you this is because this morning I checked out his blog and he had a request on there for his class. I know him well enough to know that he wouldn't mind that I ask the same that he asked of them, of you. This is how it reads.....

"Please say a special prayer for me and Jeana specifically over the next three days...Just pray that God's will be done and that we will be obedient and willing to follow where it leads..."

No, it's not detailed, and at the moment for understandable reasons, doesn't need to be. What I ask of you is to trust me in the fact that it is VERY important and it warrants your prayers. I request that of you. Let me rephrase that. I beg that of you.

I have lived long enough to witness more miracles than I deserved to see in my life, but I truly long to see a miracle in their lives. So this is my request of you for today. If you have a moment or two that you could bring the two of them before the Father, I would be more grateful than anyone!

NOTE: By the way, if anyone reads this and gets a little nervous that I posted this, it was cleared by Gregg and he says it's fine for me to post this. Just thought I'd throw that in.
