Pray For Clayton



This morning, as I opened my blog to check on new posts I received horrible news that my friend Theresa of Time Worn Interiors son has been seriously injured in a 4-wheeler accident. She is flying to Texas to be with him today and I know right now she must be in a million pieces. I have experienced having a child injured in another state and felt the helpless desperation to be with him but had to deal with getting there first. Please pray for Clayton to recover and for God to wrap his arms around TOT and her family and give them strength.

Father God,
I am praying for the recovery of Clayton and for my friend Theresa to feel my love and strength around her at this impossibly difficult time. Give her the ability to put this in your hands and to know that you are with her at all times. I pray this in Jesus name.
Amen.

  7. I like you am praying for Clayton and Theresa. I was in tears this morning when I read the plea for prayers from Theresa. I prayed the the Lord will work His miracles in their lives.
    I have also had that call and it is a terrifying ordeal to go through.

  10. How terrible for your friend. I will keep her and Clayton in my prayers. It must have been a long and lonely trip for a mother to make I can only imagine how that must be. I hope I never have to lean what that is like. For it is in GOD's hands and we can only pray.

  13. My thoughts and prayers will go out to them...always a good thing to do to pray for others you don't know personally but are suffering all the same. Wether it be domestic violence, an accident, sickness, finanially related, etc...God knows what else ... to send out his holy spirit to help strengthen them and those who are supporting them or are their care givers...
    Please let us know when you know an up date.
