Last week I had another answer to Prayer, I was visiting a Church with a friend but found it hard because I was suffering from a sprained toe and Bursitis of the hip, a condition I have had for years which needs Steroids for strong pain relief. I could hardly walk and needed to sit down for most of the Service. I asked the Associate Minister for Prayer hoping I would have God’s Strength to endure but the pain completely disappeared instead and I have not suffered with it since even though an Ultrasound on Monday showed the Bursitis was OK but that my lower back joint was now inflamed, so why No continuing pain for that time….. God is so very Good and so very Loving and Compassionate and He is with us through all Life brings.
Isaiah 43:1-3 Do not be afraid for I have ransomed you. I have called you by Name you are Mine. When you go through deep waters and great trouble I will be with you. When you go through rivers of difficulty you will not drown! When you walk through the fire of oppression you will not be burned up the flames will not consume you. For I am the LORD your God The Holy One of Israel, your Saviour.”
Jeremiah 29 :11-12 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you says the LORD thoughts of Peace and not of evil, to give you a Future and a Hope.
Lamentations 3: 33 For God doth not afflict willingly nor grieve the Children of Men.
Another Special happening last week was from a Blogging friend, in the years I have been Blogging I have met some very Kind and Caring Christian Men and Woman and they have offered Godly advice, they have Encouraged and Uplifted me, Prayed for me and Supported me and some still do which I also shared about on the link below.
Heart Friendship – https://freedomborn.wordpress.com/2017/03/13/true-friendship-is-written-on-our-hearts/
Last week I received a beautiful Card from Patty with pass on notes and Loving wishes and an e-mail from her too. Patty is also a dear Blogging friend with a big heart, I have been having a hard time lately with accidents and health problems and Patty wanted to remind me that she Cared and was Praying for me.
I have Posted Patty’s Card below and the rest of the message inside the Card and also some of her pass on notes, this is not the first time Patty has encouraged and uplifted me and I’m sure she does the same with others too, if you would like to be friendly and say hello to Patty her link is on my right Sidebar under my Blogroll.
The rest of the message inside Patty’s Card…..He’s definitely not the only one who thinks your a Blessing – I’m so glad He knew you’d be part of my life and I’m thanking Him for you today…… There was also Patty’s own Loving words and a Verse of Scripture on the other side of the card Psalm 103:2 -5
Patty’s pass on Notes…..
.
Thank you dear Patty for your Prayers and your Loving Encouragement and for your friendship which I value greatly- Anne.

Knowing I’m Loved by God is the most wonderful thing that has ever happened to me and second is knowing my Christian friends, including my Blogging friends like you whom He has brought into my life for good.

I was about to go to bed Anna but when I looked up from responding to Patty there you were, thank you so much for Visiting and for your Encouragement and Kind Words.
I notice Anna that you have Posted a few times recently and I hope to respond to them tomorrow. I always find your Messages give light to what is often kept hidden or pushed aside as not very important when they are indeed very important. I also find your Compassion and Understanding for others very uplifting and as I shared before, I feel hugged by your responses to me as they are often very deep and meaningful and yes kind and Loving too.
God Bless you greatly dear Anna and Thanks for being you – Anne.

Dear Patty, I too Love you in Christ Jesus and have from the time He introduced us and it has been strengthened over the years. There has also been times that you have brightened my dark times with your Light, when I thought it’s all too much, your Loving words in Cards or e-mails lifted me up again,Thank you so very much.
It is True Patty we are Jesus’ Arms, Hands, Feet and His Voice too in this Hurting World and as we reach out to others in His Name with His Love and Truth what we do for them we are doing for Him and so we are greatly blessed too.
I would love to talk to you again Patty but don’t have your Phone number now, perhaps if wanted you could e-mail it for me and let me know when it’s best for you to Talk.
Much Love and Blessings dear Friend – Anne.

I haven’t participated in Awards for years Whitney, I don’t like to half do them but find they take up a lot of time to complete although I do very much appreciate you wanting to share this Challenage with me so I will give it some consideration and if able will respond to it when I can.

Thank you Graham, I hope you are taking time to rest, your load is a heavy one although as you shared a blessed one too as your wife gives you so much joy and I’m sure you do the same for her too..
I shared recently with Victor another Blogging friend like you, that I’m always amazed when God touches my life in a Miraculous way and yet He tells us He does, only we don’t always realize it. Some think they were just lucky or they Thank Doctors and their Medicine or Natural remedies and yes these are also God’s tools but sometimes and I’m sure we don’t know how many times He intervenes and helps us in an amazing way.
My life Graham has been greatly Blessed by His Love and Compassion which He has shown Miraculously even when I believed after being deceived as a young Teenager that He was just made up and that I evolved from an Ape, I may not have known Him but He knew me.
Christian Love Always – Anne.
