The Power of Prayer

As if I needed any more proof that prayer works!

This past Friday after school we took Scott in for his next shot. He started to get upset again; as I held him down I began to pray, "Lord, help Scott. Help the shot not to hurt, etc..." He calmed down and the next thing we knew the nurse was saying, "It's done!" So next time we start praying before the weeping and wailing starts! Seriously, I am continually amazed at how God blesses us and answers our prayers. He really wants to hear from us. How cool is that!!!

After the doctor's office we went to see "Hotel for Dogs", the kids had both really wanted to see it and we thought it would be a good "reward" for Scott. Then on to dinner at Scott's favorite restaurant Souplantation, where he loves the Mac & Cheese!

Thanks to all of our prayer warriors! You are awesome.

Praise God!! Thanks for sharing the ups and downs, Dian. It's great to watch God work in your lives through Scott!!! You all are a great example of how God works when we "let" Him be the Blessed Controller of our lives! I'm so glad the appointment went well and you got to enjoy a fun day together!!! God bless!!!

God is good! You are all in my prayers and thoughts. Andrew and Elijah talk about Scott and Ashlyn often. We'll continue to pray for God's healing.
