Let's do this again...

Please join in a group prayer today at 9:00 AM EST for the inner workings of dad's bowels. The outside of his belly is improving, but the inside progression remains a mystery. The only way of knowing that the bowel is healing on the inside is by evidence of movement. Yes, we are back to farts. As of yesterday, dad has gurgles in his belly, but we need some evidence of healing and movement.

Thank you God for your faithfulness to Jonas. Thank you for hearing the prayers from yesterday and granting him rest. Today we come to you with another need and we place it confidently in your hands. Only you know what is happening on the inside of his body. Only you can command a bowel to move. We ask, in Jesus' name, that your healing power would work through Jonas' digestive system and breath life into all the necessary parts and functions. Touch his body now. Heal the places that we cannot see. Touch him now and restore the complete function of his bowel. In Jesus' name...

  1. Jonas,
    All your biker buddies from the Christian Motorcycle Assoc. are praying for you. We posted the blog info and asked for continued prayers and asked all the chapters to post it to their prayer chains. I will check in daily and report the prayer needs.

    You are one of God's faithful warriors and He will see you through. May God bless you and keep you in His care and grant you His peace as your healing comes.

    Blessings,
    Mike Anthony

  3. Gotcha in our prayers Uncle Jonas. If you have no food in the belly, there is less chance of a good fart! I'll send you up some Taco Bell or greasy Mexican Food and you'll have all of the proof you need in just a short while! Seriously, We LOVE YOU!!!! as well as you Ms.LaVale, LaWonna and Auntie Ann. You girls be sure to get some rest yourselves. Blessings from Kim, Dicky and Nat.

  4. Hey all,
    I know how hard this is for all of you..in fact, I have been with my dad who was taken by ambulance to the hospital 2 days ago. His colonoscopy is this morning! As I read your blog, I am touched by the role reversal that is happening with the chidren/parents...and thankful to God to see how natural it has become for L & L to take a nuturing role! Please know that our family is joined with the multitude of other believers bringing your needs before our God...He is all sufficient. Also, please remember my dad, Tony, who is very sick...but also does not know the Lord.
    Love you all, Karen
