Project Details

This card was made to encourage a dear friend who is undergoing some physical difficulties. 

I would so appreciate if you would join me in praying for this dear (younger) friend. She has weakness particularly in her arms and legs (can't walk without a walker) - her speech is slightly affected - as well as her vision. She has been hospitalized for the past three weeks and has been seen seen by neurologists, surgeons, all kinds of specialists. They have tested her for a myriad of neurological disorders - and still no answers.

Thankfully, she knows the Lord and knows that she has the ultimate victory in Jesus Christ and that nothing will ever separate her from His love, and all of these trials will only bring her closer to Him and increase her capacity to love Him more fully throughout eternity (where there will be no more sickness, pain, death and sin)! "Thanks be to God who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ!"
Thank you for your prayers!
