Prayer chain, link 15

Barbara S., Michelle C., and Esther need our prayers, and Robin does too.

Also, continued prayer for my friends Juli and Heather... both of whom have joined gather but neither one is using it very much yet. Also another friend, Linda... who hasn't gotten here yet.

1 John 4:18 is the verse I would like to share with you today. It says:

There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.

Remember that fear does not come from God and we are to reject fear. Love displaces fear. That's what it says. Believe it! Fill your heart with love and there will be no room for fear.

We begin our permanent prayer requests with prayers for our troops, governments and leaders WHETHER WE LIKE OR BELIEVE IN THEM OR NOT. It is right and proper to pray for them to be safe, enlightened and wise... as well as to pray for their souls. Also pray for our countries and their people.

As often as I can, I will find some of the prayer requests here on gather that have not yet been added to the chain: but you can help, if you are less harried than I, by searching for and adding these yourselves. If you have a prayer chain or list, I would be honored if you'd link to this one. Please don't forget Heather's daily prayer list! She gives us a beautiful prayer each day.

Please also continue to lift up in prayer all those from previous links. Even those whose prayers may have been answered... and pray for each other as well. Including those who don't request prayer but may nonetheless need it.

The lastest requests I receive via email etc. will be added at the TOP of the article as I receive them, until the next link is posted. Usually a few days. The Praise Reports will be published monthly for now, more often if I start getting a lot of them.

The previous links of the prayer chain are all still valid, as are the links spidering off from them. Here is the directory table of those links:
