Rebecca Writes - Rebecca Writes

This month’s theme here at Rebecca Writes is petitionary prayer. On Tuesdays and Fridays throughout April, I’ll be posting one request I am making of God, and I’m inviting you to join me. You’ll find all the details here.

Today I prayed for two people who are have very serious illnesses. I prayed for healing, but I also prayed that God draw them closer to him and give them (and their families) strength to face whatever is coming their way.
Update: Dorothy asks that “God would keep me sensitive to His gentle whisper in my days.”
Update 2: Jane has been praying for a “boy in my daughter’s second grade class has been diagnosed with Hodgkin’s disease. It’s in stage IV. I have been asking the Lord to heal this boy and sustain his family.”
Update 3: Lisa is praying
for a family that lost there mother this week. She drowned in the bathtub while she was having a seizure. No one was home at the time. Her children attend my children’s small Christian school. It is a university-model school in which the children go to school 2 times a week and then the mother homeschools them with the material they learned at the school on the other 3 days. This tragedy happened on a homeschool day… the next day was to be a school day. Instead, the family attended her memorial service this morning. There are 2 children, a kindergartener and a 1st grader. They are an incredible Christian family. Please pray for them.

What are you praying for today?
