Prayer and positive thinking thread for Cupofteaplease Monday October 3rd

50 replies

Northernlurker · 02/10/2011 13:20

Cupofteaplease gave birth to her daughter Beatrice just over two weeks ago. From birth it has been clear that Beatrice has some serious medical issues. Tomorrow (Monday) Cupoftea and her dh will be seeing the medical team to learn what they know so far. What we all know already is that Beatrice is a determined and beautiful soul, loved and treasured by her valiant parents and affectionate sisters.

I am a Christian. I believe in the power of prayer and I thought it would be an idea to set a thread aside to pray for them tomorrow. If you are not a praying person please do still join with us because Cupoftea needs support. We need to stand with her whatever our spiritual position.

I thought we could do it between 12 and 1 tomorrow and if people would sign up for five minutes a piece then we have a prayer/thought chain going (will need to set my calendar at work!)

Points for focus

Strength for Cupoftea and her dh

Wisdom and compassion in the hearts of the medical team

Comfort and peace for little Bea and for her sisters

Energy and knowledge and empathy for all their friends and family as they support them

Thanksgiving - for Beatrice.

Please cut and paste to sign up for a slot. If we end up with more people than slots please add more or sign up for the same time as somebody else it really doesn't matter.

Am in meetings between 12 and 1 tomorrow, so am not signing up for a slot, but will keep baby Beatrice (I love the name; it means 'bringer of blessings') and her family in my prayers.

Can I take a slightly later slot as I'll be on lunchbreak then? I'll be doing plenty of positive thinking for the family and Beatrice all day.

Our harvest service was on bees and honey and it seemed fitting to pray for Bea and her family. Hopefully that has added 30 or more people praying for them tomorrow

I'm at hospital with ds1 tomorrow, but I will pray for the family tonight at bedtime Smile

magicOC · 02/10/2011 18:59

Can I join in too pls?

Will be working, but, my little charge will be napping from 1245 so if I can put myself in after 1 seeing as all the slots are taken?

Little Beatrice and her family have been in my thoughts since cup first posted. She continues to amaze everyone with her determination to defy the docs. Well done baby Beatrice Smile
