All just sounds so wonderful, RIGHT?!?!
For some reason this word has been a part of my life, well all my life.
As a child I was always missing school because of being sick. When most kids don't get the measels, mumps or chicken pox, you can bet I did. Strep throat, constant sinus problems.
I Hate Being Sick! I am Totally SICK of being SICK.
The only time in my life that I was truely healthy was when I was pregnant all 4 times. Aside from the normal pregnancy pains, aches and weight I was always perfectly healthy.
I have a prayer that I normally pray for my friends, but oddly enough have not prayed it for myself. So today I am saying my friend prayer for myself along with any other friends in need!
"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)
Dear Lord, You know my friend/family member so much better than I do. You know his/her sickness and the burden he carries. You also know his heart. Lord, I ask you to be with my friend now, working in his life. Let your will be done in my friend's life. If there is a sin that needs to be confessed and forgiven, Lord, please help him to see his need and confess. Lord, I pray for my friend because your Word says I should pray for his healing. I believe you hear this earnest prayer from my heart and that it is powerful because of your promise. I have faith in you to heal my friend, but I also trust in the plan you have for his life. Lord, I don't always understand your ways, and why my friend has to suffer, but I trust you. I ask that you look with mercy and grace toward my friend. Nourish his spirit and soul in this time of suffering and comfort him with your presence. Let my friend know you are there with him through this difficulty. And may you be glorified in his life and also in mine. Amen

I am having 100% faith and believing that this sickness and any and all sickness will stay away from my body. I will have strength and health, and I will know and do the right things with my body to stay that way.
No more junk for me!
