Prayers going up
WOO HOO !!!
When my sister found out she had cancer, I asked my friends to pray. When she had surgery, we prayed that the surgeon would be able to remove all of the cancer and that she wouldnt have to undergo chemotherapy or radiation. And God answered yes! When I reported the news, one friend remarked, Im so glad theres power in prayer. I responded, Im thankful that God answered with a yes this time.
James says that the effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much (5:16). But does effective and fervent mean the harder we pray, or the more people we ask to pray, the more likely God is to answer with a yes? Ive had enough no and wait answers to wonder about that.
Prayer is powerful, but its such a mystery. Were taught to have faith, to ask earnestly and boldly, to persevere, to be surrendered to His will. Yet God answers in His wisdom and His answers are best. Im just thankful that God wants to hear our hearts and that no matter the answer, He is still good.
I like Ole Hallesbys words: Prayer and helplessness are inseparable. Only those who are helpless can truly pray. . . . Your helplessness is your best prayer. We can do helplessness quite well.

I was stationed there from Feb 1977 - Feb 1978. Some beautiful country up there. One year it snowed during the 4th of July fireworks show. Watched that one while wearing my parka. Nice summers, but some very cold winters. I saw -38 without the wind and up to -100 wind chill. I believe they shut down the flight line at -70 or so. During both winters we had up to 2 weeks where the high was still below zero.
Hi Everybody!

Well, Hello Kathy,
Heloo Kathy,
How’s the Canteen doing tonight.

Nice, I visited Malmstrom for a few days in February 1979. All of their grain silo’s had no grain. Just a bunch of minutemen, and they were all underground.
:^)
Evening, Kathy. Hope you’re keeping warm.
