It has grown

On the 16th of January the abdominal mass was 16 weeks in size. At that point I could hardly feel it but now I know it has grown because I can no longer sleep in my favourite position - on my stomach. I watched Waisea and Lusianne sleep last night and tried my very best to find a comfortable position in order to sleep. I whispered a prayer asking the Lord to help me sleep and then I know I fell asleep but it was very light. This morning I looked myself in the mirror and told myself, "you need a hair cut Lady... you must not let yourself look drab or sickly". So, I acted on it and my hair dresser was free to trim my hair. After the hair cut I decided to get myself a vegetable sandwich and while waiting for the lady making it a beautiful lady stepped up beside me at the counter and said, "bula Louise, how are you?" I replied politely but she saw my lack of recognition and responded by saying that she was a member of the Raiwaqa SDA Church and that they had been praying for me. This entry had to be made today in order to register my immense gratitude for the dedication, the act of ministry, empathy and the time given by total strangers to present my case before the Lord.They just like Abraham, Moses and Samuel of the Old Testament prayed and mighty miracles occurred. 

"Lord, I thank you for every individual who has remembered me in their prayers definitely fulfilling the directives in your word for us to pray for each other.I am so aware Lord that praying requires people's time and I pray for blessings on all of them. I believe You are the Rewarder of those who diligently seek You and our requests Lord are at Your feet. I pray for faith, Lord the faith that would move mountains, the faith of the Woman in the New testament that bled for many years. I know Lord intercessory prayer is the sweetest of prayers You ever hear and I pray for Your spirit to move amongst the church and to continue to uphold each other in prayer. In you mighty name I pray. Amen."
