Facebook Prayers...Thank God for each and every prayer!

Kimberly Mayo Petty is thankful to everyone who has kept Mom lifted in prayer. She's been having some pain so they're having a scan next week to make sure this new chemo is the right one. I know that God is a healer, and I claim the victory for Mom. However, it is nice to hear the prayers of other believers. If you can post a prayer today, I'll pass it along to Mom and Daddy. Thanks.

Yes Kim, God is a healer! Prayer changes things, and if you put it out there and claim it...it shall not be ignored. Like the man Al Green says...Everything is gonna be alright!" Tell Mom and Dad...Love Is In The Air!

Heavenly Father, I come to you at this moment asking that you lay your healing hands on Mrs. Mayo. We know that you are a doctor like no other and that you have all power in your hands. I also ask that you give Ms. Mayo and her loved ones strenght to fight this fight. I claim this victory for Ms. Mayo because I know that you already know our prayers before we speak them. I ask these things in the mighty and holy name of Jesus. Amen, Amen, Amen.

Dear Lord, I come to you today to hold up our dear Regina,Help her to stand what you feel she must endure for this season in her life. Help us, her family and friends and care givers to be strong and be there for her and her family. Let us not whine and whimper over things we have no control over. And give us the best response when we're pushed pushed beyond our limits. We know that when we can’t pray, You listen to our hearts. Continue to use us to do Your will. Continue to bless us that we may be a blessing to others.

Keep us strong that we may help the weak. .. Keep us uplifted that we may have words of encouragement for others. These and all things we ask in the name of your Son Jesus, our Savior, and our Redeemer, for His sake. Amen.

Kim, I had no idea your mom "had" cancer but I pray in the name of Jesus that by his stripes she is healed. Lord, I pray that you would lay your healing hands upon where Mrs. Mayo has pain and bring her comfort. I plead your blood from the top of her head to the soles of her feet Lord Jesus. We claim the victory through this test of faith Lord. Father God, we stand on your word and we thank you in advance for what you have done, and what you are doing, and what you are about to do Lord. Jesus I pray that you make your presence known through these trying times and bring comfort to the entire family and their friends. Let them know that you still reign on the throne of heaven seated at the right hand of the Father and that when prayers go up…blessings come down. We ask that you continue to annoint the minds, hearts and hands of the physicians responsible for her care and we pray that your will be done. In the mighty and matchless name of Jesus I pray…AMEN.

Be Kind to Everyone & Our Lame Excuses

As written and presented by
Mary Whelchel

Be Kind to Everyone & Our Lame Excuses


I want to look at the lame excuses we often use to try to cover up or justify ourselves. I often think of a prayer I read in a wonderful little book called A Dairy of Private Prayer, that simply says, "Make me willing to make the same excuses for others that I make for myself." That
convicted me because I realized how easily I excuse myself, but how often I refuse to let others off the hook.


Here is one of our lame excuses: That's just the way I am!


How often have you heard someone excuse their poor behavior or their bad habits with this lame excuse? For example, I think of a person who shoots off her mouth indiscriminately, not thinking before she speaks, using words with careless abandon, and harming people in the process. She
obviously recognizes that this is not the way she should speak, yet she lets herself off the hook by declaring, "That's just the way I am!" Another version of that is, "I call 'em like I see 'em." Or "I speak my mind."


Proverbs 18:21 says that, The tongue has the power of life and death, and those who live it will eat its fruit. Every time we open our mouth, we are using a powerful instrument that can do great good, or used inappropriately, can inflict great harm. Whoever said, "Sticks and stones
may break my bones, but words will never hurt me," simply wasn't giving you the whole truth. Words can and do hurt, and the hurt can go deeper than physical blows.


You've heard people excuse bad habits this way. For example, someone who is habitually late to everything, inconveniencing others and wasting their time, and then they say, "Sorry, but I'm always late. Just the way I am!" They try to make it seem inconsequential, no big deal, by excusing themselves with That's just the way I am!


The way we are in our old natures is not the way Jesus wants us to be. He wants us as Christians to grow into his likeness with ever increasing glory, so instead of using lame excuses to let ourselves off the hook, we need to make these areas a focus of prayer, asking God to change
us. Because the way we are is not the way God wants us to be. So, don't use that lame excuse anymore-That's just the way I am! It doesn't fly with God, and people don't like it too well, either.

Long Overdue Update....

We wanted to thank you for your continued prayers and give you an update on Mom. She received the results of her latest PT scan a couple of weeks ago. After the first PT scan, we learned that there were tumours in her vaginal area, stomach, lungs and liver. After this most recent scan, we learned that her vaginal area is clean of cancer. (Praise the Lord)! We learned that her stomach is free of cancer. (Praise the Lord)!

Between her lungs and her liver, she only has three spots with malignant activity. Of those three, the largest is 2 1/2 cm! (Praise the Lord). She is in very high spirits and has begun walking in her treadmill again. She has four weeks left out of a six week break before she resumes chemotherapy. We are believing that, during this time, the cancer shrink!

We know that our Lord is a healer!! We are sharing this testimony everywhere that we go!!! Thank you for your continued prayers and messages. She reads them all and they bless her and daddy greatly. The Lord said that when we unite in faith, great things happen. Praise the Lord!!!!
