Praise the Lord, Newlark, for answered prayer and a peaceful passing.

Prayers for your poorly baby MC, what have you fed him?

meltedchocolate · 25/01/2010 12:23

Just seen your post Newlark. I am sorry to hear of your grandmas passing but am pleased it was peaceful. Praise the Lord!

DO - dont blame my cooking! Poor wee guy started being a bit constipated. I think it was all just a bit over cooked by the time he 'went'. (sorry TMI) It is just something that is going around and unfortunately he got it a lot worse than any of my family did.

DutchOma · 25/01/2010 14:58

Is he feeling better now MC? I know it wouldn't have been your cooking anyway, really

Swaliswan · 26/01/2010 14:22

Afternoon All,

I'm popping by after spending a while reining in my MN time so that I concentrate on RL more. I have passed by and read your posts every so often but have felt unable to really contribute much. I've been really struggling with the issue of unanswered prayer recently which has become a bit of a block to my prayer life.

Anyway, I've come on to ask if you would mind praying for us this afternoon when the sleep specialist comes to see us. She specifically wants to talk to DH as she thinks that he is a big part of the sleep problems in our household. I am praying that he will listen to her more than he listens to me!

Other than that life is good. i've been challenged a bit recently by my CM being off sick with stress. This has in turn been quite stressful for me as I go back to work in under 3 weeks time. It has also been quite tiring having DD1 around all day, every day when DD2 has been up so much at night. I am struggling with the idea of going back to work but I feel that I will be more able if DD2 would sleep without disturbing me all night!

Must go, DD2 just woken up from her nap...

HallelujahHeisBorntoMary · 26/01/2010 14:28

Praying SS...

Please keep praying for Val, the stroke was a bad one from what it sounds like, and its really hit her badly, both physically and mentally. Also please pray for her family, who are still shell-shocked.

And of course, please pray for my BIL...

Had some interesting encounters this am, may prove interesting long term, re: the spirituality of children.

HallelujahHeisBorntoMary · 26/01/2010 17:44

Please also pray for Andrew Gosden and his family (link is for those who don't know who he is). Still no news of him, but his sister has dropped out of Uni, and has depression. She has been offered a place for next year, but that is small comfort to her and her family at this present time.

meltedchocolate · 26/01/2010 22:06

Prayers xx

meltedchocolate · 26/01/2010 22:08

and Yes, thank you DO, he is getting better.

HallelujahHeisBorntoMary · 26/01/2010 22:34

Please pray for E, a friend of DD. Have just had an email from her mum to say that she is not eating properly and losing weight. The counselling isn't working, and she may have to be admitted to a specialist hospital. I had NO idea . She is 10.

PositiveAttitude · 27/01/2010 07:58

Mary ? Prayers for E and her family. For peace and healing.
Also for Val, again for peace and healing.

Glad the nappy problem has improved MC

Praying for SS ? Hope the sleep specialist has wonderful words of wisdom and Dh gets on board.
Also prayers for DO.

Could I ask for prayer for DD1, who has a job interview on Friday morning. She is desperate to get a properly paid job so that she can get away from a bad situation. She is not a Christian, but obviously knows that prayers are answered as she has asked for prayer.
Thank you.

DutchOma · 27/01/2010 16:44

How did the meeting with the sleep specialist go Swaliswan?

Swaliswan · 27/01/2010 23:03

Flying by as I'm off to bed now (just back from cell group otherwise I would've been in bed ages ago!).

The sleep specialist had wise words and we are moving in the right direction. DH seems to be on board if a little reluctantly

We would appreciate some prayers about childcare though. My CM is now off sick indefinitely with stress/depression. Wisdom and peace would come in very handy about now. Other than that, I am trying to just keep praising God. It's less straight forward changing childcare than I thought it would be so I'll let you all know how it goes.

Right I'm off to bed. Praying for you all as I go...

CaptainDippy · 28/01/2010 12:17

BOO!

Here it is ....
