Big brother
« on: August 16, 2006, 08:42:00 AM »
I posted here last month about God's healing of a torn shoulder.  Now I'm posting about the man who taught me how to hunt, my brother Clyde.  He's dieing of cancer and has been given just a few months to live.  He's only 63 and was responsible for me hunting and fishing.  He knows the Lord and is ready but it's still hard to say good bye.

Prayers for God's blessing in the midst of a situation that is hard for our flesh to deal with.
But his bow will remain steady, and his hands will be skillful; because of the hands of the Mighty One of Jacob, because of the Shepherd, the Rock of Israel,  (Genesis 49:24 [NETfree])

Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside thoroughly used up, totally worn out, with bible in hand and loudly proclaim...WOW...What a Ride!!!

Frank,

We're all brothers and losing any is hard.  Not to in any way diminish your pain, but I thought about this when my mom died unexpectedly last year from undiagnosed cancer and was gone quickly, that it's not supposed to be easy. If saying good bye to those we love was EASY, we'd not need FAith...

Lean on that Faith. God will be there with you and cry with you and there will only be one set of footprints in the sand...HIS.  He never tires of carrying us when we're in need.

Blessing to you, your family and to your brother as his time draws close.  My heart goes out to you...

Jesus; it is in you we put our hope, faith and trust. We ask that you find favor with Clyde and touch him as only you can! Thank you Jesus!

My brother is being moved to a nursing home to live out his final time.  His waife isn't capable of handling him now that he's paralyzed.  He knows where he is going and is good with it but I'm sure the human side of things is still getting to him and his family.  Thank you all for the prayers.

Hopsice was a god-send for me/Dad when mom was in her last days.  May God's gentle touch and our Lord's loving care be among all of  your family and your brother.

Longbowman, I'm really sorry to hear about your brother, I have an older brother that has taught me many memorable things, he has had diabetes for the past 35 years and I pray that it will not take him early.  I'll pray for you and him.
