My sister Jean called earlier to tell me that the cardiologist told her she had two blockages, and that they will do a catheterization on her. For most people, when you hear the word catheterization it's nothing to be really concerned about. But in my family's case, the word inspires fear. You see my mother died having a catheterization. Her arteries were too weak to handle the extra pressure put upon them. I know when I had my catheterization a few years back, I was really scared. I can't imagine what Jean must be going through. You know, fear can cause some crazy things to go through ones mind. My brother Jerry also has had a few catheterizations and I have often wondered if he ever thinks about the way our mother died, while they're performing his.
I asked you if you will, please keep my sister Jean in your prayers.
Jean if you read this, know that you are in my prayers, and in my thoughts.
Father in heaven, I lift up Jean in prayer to You, and I asked You Lord please be with Jean, comfort her, and let her feel Your presence surround her. Lord God we ask that you lead and guide the doctor's as they perform the procedure on Jean. We ask Lord that Your spiritual blessings be poured upon her, providing her with courage and strength in her time of need. We thank you dear Lord for Your endless love, Your bountiful mercy, and Your wonderful grace. Always giving us what we don't deserve, and keeping from us the punishment we do deserve. We thank You most of all for the wonderful gift of salvation through Your Son, Your only Son, Jesus Christ's, Who took upon Himself our punishment, while He hung on the Cross of Calvary. He is, King of Kings and Lord of Lords. Forgive us when we fail. In the name of Jesus Christ I pray, Amen and Amen.
I love you Jean, as you tell me many times, have faith, and know that God is with you.
Until next time, Willard and I wish you all health and happiness, may God bless and God save.
