Prayer Request

Brother Ronnie Cockrell asked for prayer for the father of a friend in Double Springs. Benny Cornelieus is in the nursing home for therapy and they are very concerned that he will regain the will to get better and restore his health. He is about 80 years old. Please remember this family.

Ronnie had shoulder surgery Monday in Winfield. The doctor, Dr. Boyette, has been telling us for more than a year that as this type injury goes, his shoulder was about the worst it could be, and to be prepared for a serious surgery and long, hard recovery. When they got into it, the huge tear was not there! Dr. Boyette asked to see the MRI again in the OR, and Ronnie's shoulder only had a small tear and he fixed that and did a little clean up of bone spurs. He didn't even have to make the incision, just with the scope. We had made our plans to have to somehow deal with this setback the best way we could, but looks like the Good Lord had other plans. He has no restrictions on what he can do, and only a little therapy to take. Praise the Lord!! As Bro. Smith said, "this is truly a miracle straight from the Lord". Amen!

Like most families, we have been in the midst of some rough storms and our faith has been severely tested and tried in the fire. We are thanking God for coming through for us, when He did, and in due season. You can never outthink or outgive God~He has a way of showing up at the perfect time, to give us what we need from Him and let the Lord take the Glory for His Amazing Grace. Thank you, Lord.

We have had so many in our church family who have been going through fiery trials, suffering, deaths, storms, and everything the devil can use to come against us in these last days. Let's keep each other lifted up in prayer before the Father, we all need His touch more than we even realize.
