National Day of Prayer

Maria Westbrook, our LifeCare Testing Clinic Nurse Manager, was asked to give a prayer on behalf of LifeCare on the National Day of Prayer. On Thursday, May 2, Maria read this heartfelt prayer to those listening at The Commons in downtown Columbus.

Dear Heavenly Father, 

We come to you this day, recognizing that you are the answer to life’s most perplexing dilemmas, the satisfaction of our deepest needs, the fulfillment of our greatest longings, and the reward of our brightest hopes.  You are our all in all. 

Father, we are living in days of great physical, social, and spiritual need.  Sometimes it is overwhelming when we look at the vast array of human need and suffering and measure it against our limited resources.  But your reserve Heavenly Father is endless and so we come to you and beseech you on behalf of all the social services that are offered in this community for your blessing, as we seek to love our neighbor as your Son Jesus taught us.  Father we thank you for His example of self-less giving to those who were hungry, sick, disabled, mentally and emotionally tormented, outcast, wounded, lonely, those crumbling under the weight of guilt and sin, and those without hope.  Fill us with your love, compassion, grace and strength to truly make a difference in this community.

Father, we ask for your provision of resources to meet the pressing needs in this community.  We thank you for those who are serving in various ways around us and for the joy of being involved in meaningful work.  We ask that you would raise up more volunteers who would commit to taking a few hours out of their schedule each week to give back.  Bless their efforts, Father.  We also ask, for your material and financial provision for the work that needs to go on.  Pour out your blessing on those who are so generous to give of their time, talents and resources as it is a reflection of your giving nature.  Father, I ask that you would send your encouragement that lose who labor to reach out in your name may not become weary in doing good, but persevere until the harvest comes.

And finally, Father, we commit ourselves to being your hands, feet, heart and words to our neighbors.  Use us to help lead others to you, the only One who is able to fully meet our deepest needs.  May the glory and honor for any good that is done in this community be attributed to you.  May your Name be lifted high. 

In the precious Name of your Son, Jesus, we pray.  Amen

Pancakes and Pacifiers!

I was recently invited to speak about the Pregnancy Care Center ministry at a breakfast to the Church Women United which is made up of women from several area churches.  Approximately 24 women showed up at Grandma's Pancake House on a cloudy, dreary Monday morning with warm smiles and many, many items for the Center. The fellowship was so sweet.  What an encouragement their support is to us and blessing it is to those we serve!
