Special for an old minister of God

Praying!

I pray all goes well.

What exactly do you need prayer on? Your old pastor being able to make it home alone? Anyway, I gave my prayer. God be with your pastor and you.

I received a phone call from Indiana just a while ago. My old pastor, a widower for almost 9 years is hospitalized in the vicinity of Franklin, Indiana where he was to attend some fellowship meetings. From there he was supposed to travel to Kentucky and Alabama in his ministry. All of that is cancelled. He will be coming home as soon as he can released from the hospital and travel arrangements can be made.

Next month will be his 96th birthday. He and his wife of 66 years never had any children so now he has outlived all of his natural family. The church he was visiting is helping him and will let me know what they can when they know. They have had to put in a permanent catheter for him to urinate. Whether or not he can travel home alone is an up in the air question.

Pray for him now please dear people of God. Let God handle this situation as only He can.

Prayers for your old minister..keep us updated!

His name is Daniel isn’t it? Or have I got it wrong?

we are lifting him up, bless his heart.
If he has no more ‘preaching future” ahead at 96 , which he so much enjoys …maybe it’s time for him to “enter in to the joy of the Lord” and find his beloved wife.

Does he have his name down for a care home? I doubt it …he’d want to pass over Jordan with his boots on…as we all do.

keep us posted now and when he gets home again…praying that Father “Opens the sea and parts the waves “ so he has a clear passage home. xxx

Amen good to hear it…

every blessing of wisdom to you and Kathy as you meet him and deal with things …xx

One day soon every lamb will be going home . The LORD will come for His own .
One big happy day of rejoicing that will be . Daniel has lived a lot of years . Its hard to imagine
how wonderous that day is going to be . All the saints will be there and you can rest assured Shall be PRAISING AND THANKING
the ONLY NAME JESUS CHRIST that got them there . LET THE KING BE PRAISED . We will pray for daniel .

Father God, I lift up in prayer the 96 year old minister who has been serving you for decades, and ask you to grant him the desires of his heart - if he wants healed by the stripes of Jesus manifesting in his body so he can continue ministering, then I pray you grant his request, and may he serve you for many years more - and when he’s ready to go home to heaven, let him pass peacefully in his sleep.
In the name of Jesus Christ, may it be so. Amen.

Daniel is home but not as well physically as he might be. He really dislikes that catheter. We immediately called for an appointment with a doctor for him. I won't say here what I think about his primary care doctor. [Bite my tongue!]

In any case the computer systems of our one hospital which includes most of the local doctors was hacked and shut down. Finally we got referral to a local urologist. I went down there to set up an appointment for him only to be told by the one nurse on duty that none of the doctors were there because there were no computers. She could not set up an appointment. That made no sense to me, but what about man's system makes sense?

My wife spent hours calling urologists in various other cities in Oklahoma. Finally she got him a appointment for June 25th, a day to remember (my 49th wedding anniversary) in a city 70 miles away.

My pastor keeps calling me with questions about what they are going to do and I keep telling him I do not know. I tell him that we know a God who knows and my pastor coming back to himself agrees and we pray...

Please pray that we get answers and results on this soon. He has other symptoms arising, but still no answers from anyone and we have been unable to talk with anyone who really knew... The last medical doctor who had a clue was in an Indiana hospital. No high praises for Oklahoma at the moment!

If worse comes to worse, I can take him to the Emergency Room, but that would be a stop gap at the best. Hopefully he can last until the 25th... I know that God can heal him, but I do not expect that. Is that my negative faith?

Help us dear Lord!

Oh goodness John …I can only imagine …poor Daniel , I’m sure he’s in pain…thinking of waiting a whole week , is probably daunting , if not down right scary . Nights are the worse, so dark and so lonely .

if I was him I’d be praying that God pulled the plug , and say - “number 7 , your time is up, come in, “

I believe there is a time when “The owner of our house “, says ..”I’ve fixed lots of parts of your house over the years , you now need a new house , it’s no longer worth fixing it up…… The roof is going, the basement sinking , the windows are dull, now, …it’s time to move …”
