Thursday I was having a chicken with her head off crazy day. When I received a knock at my door. Mind you the only people who come to my door are delivery people. When I opened my door a young lady was standing there. She was wearing a hoodie, thin jeans, slip on shoe, yes one shoe, the other foot had a surgical boot. She was shivering from the cold. She ask me if I could drive her home. Mind you I don't know her from Eve. I told her I don't drive and the car in the driveway was broken. She walked away and headed down the road. We live out in the country. Town is over 10 miles away. I closed the door and started to go back to the work I was doing when I felt in my heart, how would I feel if this young lady was my daughter and no one helped her.. I went outside, she was still in eye sight, and I asked her if she wanted to come in and get warmed up. . She came in we had hot tea together. She had no cellphone. She used mine to call the person who dropped her off. She was trying to visit my neighbor. Her ride refused to come get her. I texted my son at work. He was getting home around 1:30. He said he'd take her home then. Her name is Erica. We had lunch together and she helped me with my outside and inside chores. We talked about life,family, children. She wanted to learn how to crochet. She said she lived in town. no she didn't she lived on the outskirts of town. She would have been walking all day to get home. I'm thankful God let me and my son help her.

David, my husband, had a difficult childhood, he carries the trauma from then around with him even today. Even with counseling he let's let control how he treats our children and myself. We've been married 38 years. He does well for a short period of time then goes back to being hateful, vindictive and childish. He's a procrastinator. Hejustifies his behavior instead of correcting it.The older he gets the worse this behavior has become. He just turned 68. I'm 67. I can tolerate his behavior but our adult children shouldn't have to deal with his behavior. Please pray that God will help David and guide him. That God will help heal him. This would help our marriage. I need prayers to try to understand what God wants me to do. Thank you

Justin's interview went well. They called him after to come in for a 2nd interview. 🙏 he gets the job. If he's not working by the new year we need to send him away.

Justin, our son, had an interview this morning. They have called him back to come in for a 2nd interview. He really needs this job. Pray he gets and keeps this job. We have been supporting him through all he's been through. He needs to get out on his own again. Thank you in advance

Yesterday David, my husband, let our 2 yr old American foxhound loose off her leash. Of course she ran off. He was told NEVER to let her loose from her leash. She came back with a severe laceration on her right front . 3 hours at the emergency vet and over $1,500. later she's on several medications and received stress stitches . She had to wear a cone for the next 3 weeks. She's in pain. David knew not to let her loose. I'm so mad at him. I don't know if I can never forgive him for this neglect. He doesn't listen to anyone.

I saw my spine surgeon today. Dr.Redy said physical therapy first. If that doesn't work injections. If neither of those work then surgery. Pray that I don't need surgery. I won't have much mobility in my neck if I get the surgery done. Thank you for your prayers Blessings to you all JudySulak

I know God is with my family and myself during this trying time. David is still healing from knee replacement surgery. It's going well. His work is reviewing his medical paperwork to decide if they will be sending him checks. I have had some minor medical problems and we are addressing them. MRI at the end of the month. The arthritis in my neck is causing a pinched nerve which is effecting my left arm. Justin still isn't working and we are still supporting him. Which on our limited income is getting harder to do. I keep praying he gets to the place where he can and will live on his own once again. With all that said I am extremely blessed. We have chickens for eggs and meat. We have sheep for meat. As well as 2 hogs. I have grown a garden and canned fruits and vegetables. I have food clothes and a beautiful home. Because God has blessed me and my family I know we can get through this and still have our home. I'm trying not to stress over all of this as well as the economy and the way the world is going. I thank you all for your continuous prayers.

David's knee surgery went well. He's been going to therapy and doing his exercises at home. He's walking much better. God is good all the time

Thank you for all your prayers. David is healing well from knee replacement surgery. I can now contact my doctor about my left arm. Justin is still having a difficult time getting his medical paperwork signed. It's about his depression medication. His primary care doctor won't sign it even though she's the one who refills it. We're now trying to locate the original doctor who diagnosed him. My cousin Dorothy is still looking for a place to live after her house burnt down. She feels discouraged. I pray for you all daily. My God fill your day with Blessings so you can be a blessing to others

Sorry I haven't been able to join you all on EDO. Was getting ready here on our homestead for David's knee replacement surgery which is today, September 17th. Hopefully he'll be able to come home tomorrow. Once things settle down I'll be back on the live stream. The book of Acts is so very insightful for all that is happening in the world today. Our country and the world need our prayers. Blessings to you all

David does have a calcium blockage but not near enough to his heart to cause concern. He's been oked for knee replacement surgery but not until September 17th. We have had to go to food banks for most of our groceries. Our bills are up to date, so far. We're processing 3 roosters on Monday, a sheep and 2 hogs in September. We're eating and canning from our garden. We have gotten rid of our cable and other nonessentials. I know with God by our side and your prayers we will get through this. Justin starts his new job on the 26th. Thank you Jesus. Pray he keeps this job. I'm finally getting caught up on my work since coming home from the Presbyterian women gathering. I will see you all Monday, God willing. Thank you all for your prayers. I thank you all for your prayers.

Good morning and blessings to you all. I'm back from the PW Gathering. It was a God filled 4 days. And we went to have David's heart checked. He's been released to have his knee replacement surgery. He does have a calcium buildup but not where it will hinder his surgery. Thank you God. God is an awesome God. Thank you for all your prayers. Now pray an early opening comes up.

I'm getting our homestead settled, someone else has to do my chores, and the house and meals set up for while I'm gone has taken a lot of my time. I will be in st. Louis for a Presbyterian women's conference until Sunday. You all are always in my prayers

Good morning and blessings to you all. Update on my husband's health issues. They had to postpone his surgery because they found calcium buildup in his heart. We need to find out how much. That's a two day procedure. If all goes well he can have his knee replacement surgery. He won't get FMLA until he has the surgery. He's been out of work for 2 months so far. We have enough $ to get us through August. Surgery is now tentatively on September 17th. We have canceled all unnecessary Bill's and are looking into getting food from the area food bank. I'm leaving this mess in God's hands. Needless to say he isn't getting around very well. He's in a lot of pain. I'm doing my work as well as much of his. I'm exhausted. Keep us in your prayers. It's not easy leaving this with God but I no longer know what to do.

David will have knee replaced surgery on the 30th. But because he didn't have a surgical date right away he didn't receive disability checks from his work. We are quickly running out of food. We went to a food bank yesterday. Received enough to get us through 3 days. Pray his disability checks start coming in soon. All our bills are paid in full for this month. We have around $40 available for groceries for the rest of the month. I'm feeling anguish. Trying to place our needs in Gods hands. We know there are people worse off than us

We have an opportunity to get a ewe lamb. Pray that it works out in our favor. That we can get her and she's healthy.

Our son Justin has a interview today. Pray he stays calm and not agitated. He's been humming a lot which is a sign he's getting agitated. Pray he gets the job. Which is the same place David, my husband and his stepfather, works at. I know Justin can work. He gets nervous and anxious with change or doing something new. He desperately needs a job. Thank you

I have always wanted to feel more connected to the bible. To read it and be there in spirit as the events are happening and apply those messages to my life. It has been difficult to see how the message in the bible can help me understand what is happening in the world today. But... Every day Outreach bible study has helped me make the connections. I feel as if I'm there when the events are taking place. I understand how what happened then effects what's happening now in my life and the world. Thank you Brad. You have brought the bible to life for me. I pray every day for you and your family. May God bless you all abundantly Yours in Christ JudySulak

Greetings, I went to an urologist and I need to see a surgeon. Plus as I was pulling weeds I unknowingly must have pulled up poison ivy. I have hives on my hands, face and neck. Pray for QUICK healing. I itch! I haven't heard anything else about our son John Thomas. As far as I know he's still in jail waiting his trial date. Our son Justin is still having anxiety issues. He's been putting in job applications but isn't getting out of bed until late in the day. Thank you for your prayers
