Bro. Tom in Hospital - Ed Hurst - 11-12-2019
Bro. Tom out in California emailed to let me know that he's in the ER with liver/gall bladder issues. He went to the ER almost 2 months ago and didn't say much about it, but took a trip yesterday and it all flared up on him. I guess this is the time of infirmity all over the place. We got a heap of praying to do.

Amen to that, Brother! Gratefully, I have a profound sense of peace surrounding me. There are a few folks close to me with burdens right now so this peace helps me to 'see' clearly and pray with clarity. Definitely will hover over Tom tonight. Well, I don't know how else to word that.

Acknowledged, y'all really don't wanna hear me praying. Well, I don't pray in any recognizable, conventional way. I talk to God in the same way as I talked with my Pops, informal and familiar. Only a person who really does know Him could come up with some of the stuff that passes for prayer. Well I ought not judge, I guess it depends on how you were raised.

Son has had a fever for a few days. There's a mild infection in his lungs. He's on some antibiotics but they are pretty slow this time around. He usually gets sick this time of year.
Anyways, Tom will be the topic of my prayers at 5 today.

In my daily goings on, i talk to the Lord all the time conversationally as He is my only companion here at home. But when I have a bunch of serious stuff to ask about, I like to focus myself on Him with my whole self. I picture each person, where they are, and pray to Him in my own little words with my heart. No one prayed in my house growing up except the Catholic meal blessing that everyone of us memorized or the ones recited verbatim during every mass. When i finally actually opened up and read a Bible (KJV) at 28 years old, the Lord opened up my eyes to the Truth. That was a real eye-opener for me, raising a lot of deep questions about the Catholic and all other religions. Changed my life forever.

So, any news on Tom, Ed?
And, Iain, is your son feeling any better?

As far as I know my son is a tank. He fell asleep laying across our bed this evening and I looked at him, all 6'1" and 240lbs of athletic magnificence and remembered when he was little and I would carry him to his bed. I did that until his feet almost dragged the floor. No matter how old they get they are always our babies.

Tom tells me his condition has improved dramatically, so much so that surgery has now been pushed out of the picture. As an added bonus, he encountered a patient care assistant who is a firm believer and has prayed with Tom. Give the Lord a shout for Nicholas Hyde.

Hey! This is good news. Thanks for the info
RE: Bro. Tom in Hospital - forrealone - 11-16-2019
Wow! Good news all around! Praise the Lord in His Mercy!
I know what you mean, Iain. My "babies" are 39 and 42 and they will always be my little girls. Sounds like your son is a mighty strong fellow! Goodness.
