Prayers for O No?

It isn't hypocritical to ask for good wishes and thoughts or for prayers from those so disposed.  I'm sorry she is so sick, and she has many friends who are sending her prayers and good thoughts as well.  I wish her healing and peace and so do her friends...please tell her she has many friends sending her whatever they feel moved to according to their beliefs.  

Hopefully, she will see a doctor if that is what is needed. Best wishes for her health.

Semi, I will say a prayer for O No, and also one for you, to keep you strong while you are helping her.

I think the world of both of you, and only wish the best for you. Let her know that many here are praying for her.

I'm praying for you both. Stay strong Semi, you are a good friend.

also praying for both of you, and believing God will bring healing miracles. please keep us posted. hg<><

I will be thinking of O No. I hope she sees a Dr soon. I truly believe that the best chance she has at regaining health is through science.

 

O No, know that you have friends that are holding you in their thoughts and believe you are strong enough to overcome this illness. ((hugs))

 

Semi, you are a very good friend.

Posted on my Friends Ministry mail list and to all my Facebook Friends:

 

PRAYER REQUEST FOR A FORUM FRIEND -- A Christian Friend on the TimesDaily Religion Forum is very sick. I don't know the details; but, I do ask your prayers for her.  Since most folks on the forums do not use their real names, choosing to use pseudonyms; I only know her as O No.  But, we know that God knows who she is and all about her illness.  Please keep her in your prayers that our Lord will give her healing.  And, please keep her family in prayer also, that our Lord will give them His assurance, comfort, and peace.

Thank you for your prayers for my Friend, and God bless, Bill

 

And, O No, I also pray for you, that you will be healed.

 

God bless,  Bill

 

Semi, I am praying for her.

Semi, I too will join with the rest in participating in prayer for my friend, O No, and hope that she no only receives comfort and healing from on high but has within her a regeneration which so many of us that deal with continual constant pains.   If you read this O No I sure hope that you know we have you in our thoughts and concerns and hope very much to hear you on again soon and hearing that you feel much better. 

Whatever the need is know that our prayers are for a speedy and positive outcome.   Like you and many others I've dealt with continual chronic pain, associated with Crohn's disease, for years, if not decades, and it somehow never gets to be a comfort.  It, like many diseases and pain can leave you asking why me or why do good people endure such pains and suffering.  Others point to such grave illnesses and say see God doesn't take care of His own.  For a believer it's easy and tempting to fall into that trap. 

Here is the way I look at that.  I've always said I'd serve my Lord and testify to my devotion no matter what, that I would maintain my testimony in the face of certain death of someone holding a gun to my head demanding I renounce my allegiance and faith in God.  Saying this all the time knowing that the chances are slim to none that such a thing will occur right here in the United States of America yet many of us make such statements.  Well the way I look at my Crohn's disease is that God gives me the opportunity to demonstrate my very faith in God and praise Him regardless of circumstances.  I think you know that I fully believe that there will come a time in all Christian's lives when, in the future, we will have trials and tribulations, and be faced with a difficult decision as whether or not to confess Him before others in the face of suffering or punishment for doing so.  That punishment may just be little as ridicule but never the less it pales to that which the Disciples and early Christians faced for their devotion and faith.

So when my modern day ailments bring continual pain and discomfort I just say it reminds me that I still am in the flesh and awaiting much greater things in a Spirit life apart from the fleshly body.  That like the disciples, in torment and pain and suffering it enables me to fulfill my statement that I will confess Him and His greatness and Salvation regardless of my circumstances in hope that others, in a lost world, will have reason to question why one would maintain such devotion when all reason would say to turn your back and curse God for the things that beset us. 

Rather I, myself, glory in the ability to test my faith and challenge it before others and before my own self.  Life is so short and our opportunities are waning but we are assured as well as promised that our rewards are not with this life but in that Spiritual that awaits us.  Stay strong and know that many like minded believers and loving Christians are remembering you in their prayers and bringing you before the throne.  Know that you are loved and cared about by many whom you have blessed through the years and that our feelings are to lean on our shoulders and allow us to try and shoulder some of your load and concerns.  My sister I do so hope that you will find a measure of comfort, peace, and solace during your trials and illness.  Do not feel an obligation to answer or respond for none of us would want you to endure any discomfort account of an attempt to respond but just know our concerns are with you my Sister in Christ.

Get well soon Ono! best of wishes from here and the other places you have friends at!

Semi, Blue asked if you could please pass on his good thoughts and wishes for her as well since he can't post here. He is thinking about her and wants her to know if possible.

_________

I will let her know & tell Blue hello for me. I miss him!

Prayers for O No. I hope she feels better soon. Semi, you are a good friend, not a hypocrite.

Gbrk, You're post is a true testimony, very inspiring. I'm praying for you too.

Ono, I will pray for you. We have had disagreements in the past but their has never been a doubt in my mind that you were a loving and caring person. I know the Holy Spirit is inside you guiding you. I pray that He will show you the way out of the darkness that surrounds you and brings you into perfect health. Keep the faith. I will say that you have a true friend in Semi. I'm sure you are greatful for friends like her in times like these. God bless and Keep the faith

Gbrk, beautiful testimony of faith of greater things to come. Hugs..

Hi Chick, or anyone,

 

Do you have an update on O No's condition?  Please keep us posted.

 

Thank you and God bless,

 

Bill

O No, I pray you will follow Jank’s advice and see a licensed physician.

Wow. You guys are the best!

 

OK, here's the deal: I saw my doctor yesterday. He suspects pernicious anemia, brought on by my inability to absorb nutrients from my food (due to the celiac disease that I have had for so long). He gave me a vitamin B12 shot and has done testing for vitamin deficiencies and also for thyroid problems. No results back yet, but he said the B12 wouldn't hurt. I'm SUPPOSED to feel more energy from that shot, but so far nothing.

 

The growth (or whatever it is) on my jawbone is a different story. I still need an MRI and probably surgery, neither of which I can afford right now. That must remain on the back burner for now. But if I can get the thyroid and vitamin things straightened out, I should start feeling better.

 

In the meantime, I have turned the running of my shop over to a dear friend. I'll be popping down from time to time to check on things, and because my computer is down here, I will only be checking in with you folks when I get a chance.

 

I can't tell you how much it means to me that you all are so concerned. Semi, you are the best friend anyone could ever ask for and I love you with all my heart. I thank you all so much for the thoughts and prayers.

 

But right now I'm going to go back home and go to bed. Great big (((((HUGS))))) to all of you!

Borrow some money and get the MRI.  Use your business as collateral for a loan. Having debt beats being dead.

Semi and ONo!, I have no idea how I missed this thread. I'm so sorry. My prayers are with you and I will continue praying until you are well. Thank you for updating us and please keep us updated as the opportunity presents itself. Rest assured that many of us are pray for you and Jesus is watching over you...

Believing for feeling better very soon. and provision supplied with healing in Jesus name<3

does anyone have an update on ONo?

O has my best wishes, but those won't cure her any faster than prayer.  O, if you're reading this, suck it up and go to the doctor!  Luv ya, and don't want you to be sick!
