A Call to Prayer
A friend of mine and soon to be a friend of yours, CJ Mills is going through a whirlwind of gigantic proportions. He and his pregnant wife Andrea were vacationing in Hilton Head when the need came for a trip to a strange hospital, strange doctors, and a cold room away from home where the decision was made to bring their baby Asher to this world a couple of months early. For the full story, READ THIS (read it, it will change you.)
Asher has been unable to go home for quite some time now, and just a couple of days ago it was looking like that was all about to change. As the time to leave was approaching, Asher's temperature started to drop, which told the doctors to wait and perhaps do a few more tests. The outcome of all of those tests has yet to be fully determined, but there are some chances that the results are not the results nay of us had hoped for. SO, without causing further duress and sharing any information that really isn't mine to share, I want to ask each of you that reads this post to pray. Whether you are a believer, or not a believer, or not sure what you are... just pray.
Father God, we are praying for CJ and Andrea to be filled with supernatural strength, energy and favor. That you send a mighty legion of Angels to surround the Mills family, and bring the peace that passes all understanding to the forefront of each of their lives. Remind us all father that YOU are our strength, YOU are our provider, and through YOU father, all things are made new. Today father we ask for that newness to reach into Asher's life and bring healing, to reach into CJ's and Andrea's lives and bring peace and strength, and finally into little Jadyn's life to give her Peace and comfort while dealing with her parents absence. We ask for all of this in the mighty name of Jesus, Amen.
OK Good... IT'S WORKING. Now keep praying, and while you're at it... go over to CJ's blog and let him know you are praying... I know it will mean a lot to them all.
I am most definitely praying hard for these guys!
I am convinced that God has some big plans for that little boy.

I have to force myself to see the fact that he is already having an impact in so many people's lives right now...
You, and all my other blogging friends, are helping me realize that. Thanks...

Thank you...we have seen the power of prayer work so much already in his young life and continue to anticipate what God has in store for him.

WOW - this is a big deal, Scott. My wife commented on your blog. You should feel VERY special! She hasn't even done that on MY blog...

CJ, you make a VERY strong point... Asher is having a gigantic impact, and I would suspect that it has only begun. I consider it an honor to pray for you my brother, and an honor to have Andrea come visit (HI ANDREA)
Please know that when your arms are tired, we will help you to hold them up and keep them outstretched to God. Victory is coming.
