Cover Rusty, Corey, Martin & Robin with prayer ...

Hi all,

I just received a call from a really close friend, Robin. Her son, Rusty (22), was in a bad car accident last night.  He is currently at SB Memorial, ICU.  He has a broken neck, broken ribs, bruised organs etc.  He is not expected to walk again. He is scheduled for a risky surgery to realign his neck
tomorrow around 3:00.

What makes this situation worse is that my friend also has another son who is terminally ill and cannot be left with just anyone.  Because of his illness, Robin and her husband are takings shifts going to the hopital and staying at home with Corey, but aren't able to be at the same place at the same time to lean on each other.

Because of Corey's illness, they haven't really attended a church in a couple of years, and really don't have a foundation of believers to call upon for prayers.  She asked that I "rally up the troops and it get people praying" because she knows that "God is bigger than us and can do amazing things".

Please pray for Rusty's body, that if it is in His will, that Robin and Martin will see "amazing things" in Rusty's recovery. Please pray that Corey's illness remains stable during this time.  Please pray that Robin and Martin will be able to accept help and to ask for help when needed.    Please pray for wisdom with all of the decisions they need to make and that they will have the means to pay for Rusty's medical bills as well as Corey's.  Please pray that no matter what happens that Martin,
Robin and Rusty will see God working.

Thank you for your prayers!

I have to share this ...
In simple terms Corey's terminal illness is where sugar is killing his brain and ultimately killing him. I could hardly bear to hear this story my brother and his wife shared with me back in November. Then To hear about the car accident of the other son, tears just broke the damn for the parents. How much can these parent bare?

Dearest Heavenly Father,
A favorite word I have is nattah it means incline. I know You have bent down and You hear our cries. You hear our pain. You are the Lord of the storm. You hold us close to Your Chest.

As You stilled the storm and righted the little fishing boat, You can still this storm that has consumed Corey, Rusty, Robin and Martin. You are the Master Healer and we ask for healing of Rusty. You have gone before and You will walk with Robin and Martin as they try to be there for both sons and for each other. You are the Glue that can hold this family. With each little victory, we ask for Joy and Peace to settle their fagile hearts and souls.

As we cover them with our prayers, we ask for a surrounding of them. You are our Refuge, our Hope, and our Strength......
always Yours
