Prayer for Healing!


Sunsets… sunrises… flowers finally coming to bloom after this long, cold, seemingly endless winter… people smiling… babies… the Oriole’s hitting homeruns…
These are all things that can be beautiful and bring joy.  

Over the next 40 days I am embarking on a prayer journey (inspired by Mark Batterson’s book, “The Circle Maker”) for my Mom’s eyesight to be restored by Mother’s Day 2014.  It has been getting worse and worse since 1988- she stopped driving around 2000 and it has continued to decline.  She has had some surgeries that have not been successful.  She has never once complained! She is a woman of strength and such a trooper.  However, her vision is now at an all-time low.  Instead of any improvement things have just continued getting worse.

Throughout the next 40 days as I pray, I want to ask you to join in and when you see something that brings a smile to your face, be reminded to:
1. Be grateful for the gift of vision or corrective equipment that enables you to see
2. Say a prayer for God to restore her vision! 

I believe that God is able to heal her vision- he created her and her eyes and He is capable of miracles.  Jesus healed many blind people during his time on earth.  Please join this army in praying “circles” around the wall of blindness and making it fall like the wall of Jericho.
