I will give the short story, My wife of 19 years has had her 4th neck surgery 8-10-09,(these have all been done within the last 28 months)the long and short story is that her short term and long term disabibty companies are neither one wanting to pay out, she went back to work for 72 days in jan 09 after her 3rd surgcery, 1 ins is saying that she should have a new claim, the other says it is a continuation, either way, we will be without her income from 9-28 till jan 2010 at the quickest, I am not one to ask for prayer for my self, and I am not really, I am asking prayers for my family, we are looking at losing our house and everything we have worked for, I became disabled myself in 2006 with an auto-imune disorder, and I know that I don't deserve anything..... well, actually all I do deserve, is hell, but by the mercy and grace offered to me by the blood stained cross and  wonderful loving God, I have the opportunity to spend an eternity with Him who created me. Please pray for my family, and allow anything this post does to glorify our God, He is the only one that deserves honor, and praise, and glory.
thanks and God bless!!!!!,
brad

Dude...! Why haven't you shared?  Dang, Hoss! I hate hearing all this!

Just getting back to work myself, I can't offer much, but it sounds like it's time for an attorney to enter the picture to help protect you and your family....

Geeze...that is so dishonorable.  They forced her back to work...now play this game. Greed abounds and His Grace is all we have to count on.

My prayers for a solution to be opened up to you.  Prayers for Tammie's healing, Insight as to the right direction to take and when to stand and be counted so that you may continue to do His will and work as you have done for so long now.

Be at peace, Brad. Keep the Son in your eyes!

Footprints in the sand, Brad...single they be now, He's carrying you in this time of need.

[redeemed]

Doc, you couldn't be more right!!!!!!! I know it in my heart, just some times my thinking takes over and faith gets to wandering, but He knew that yesterday, and He still loves me!!!!!!!

[Doc Nock]

Amen, Brad...amen!!

Kimber and I are praying for you also. May God touch your wife and you and show the insurance co. that they are wrong in this.

[Kimber Rowan]

You are so very worthy, you were made worthy by Jesus hanging on the cross for each of us. Donald and I are praying for you and your wife and for the insurance company to open their eyes and do the right thing. Don't loose faith, as you know Donald has had a lot of work related troubles this year and about a month ago Donald was woken up in the middle of the night with God telling him "Follow Me. Love Me. I will give you riches beyound comprehension. I am your God. I will provide for you. You only have to believe. Follow me." we believe this for all of us, pray, pray and pray!

[Doc Nock]

Amen, Kimber.

I just had a family member bring a check for 300.00 to my door, along with 100.00 grocery gift card, and 4 bags of groceries......I am so humbled, this is not how I had my life pictured at my High school graduation, I know God knew all about this long ago, but I am so not worthy, I am angered at the way things are, all the while I know that God has to break us before He can use us, I think I needed a heart transplant, and I know I needed to have my pride stripped away, I just figured I could do it myself, and I didn't need His help to do it....once again the sign of self suffinceicny.... "I am ok...u r okay"   N O T , I am writing through tears, the Lord blesses me more than I ever deserved, please pray for me as I am no shape to be used right now,but I know that he loves and He has plans to prosper to me, Jer 29:11

[Kimber Rowan]

Redeemed, you are abseloutley in a place to be used at this moment, we all are-  every moment of our lives is a opportunity for God to use us.  You are blessed, today God showed you how much he loves you through his people.  God puts people in our lives to help for a reason.  Accept it, say God bless you and when you can pay it forward.  I read somewhere today and I loved this quote it is "there can be no failure in Gods path, and there can be no success out of Gods path"  So, no matter how much of a failure you feel like you are,  you aren't! If you are on Gods path for your life.  He will turn everything negative into a positive and he will make what the enemy means for evil good.  God doesn't  give us the spirit of failure, depression or  negativity. Those are the rotten fruits of the spirit of the enemy-  Don't accept it, accept what God has to offer, love, compassion and grace.

Praying for you!

I don't feel like a failure, just unworthy, you see the way I see it, I deserve hell, but it's only by the grace and mercy afforded me through the blood shed on calvary that I am "redeemed" don't take me for defeated, just OVERHUMBLED (lol) I have alway been self sufficient, and God is kicking out my stilts. I am in the process of learning to "sit", In the book of Eph, there is 3 concepts SIT..STAND...WALK,(along with many spiritual warefare enlightnings) I am learning to sit right now, that is my position "in Christ" meaning that I cannot walk or stand before I realize....not who I am or what God has done,,,,, but rather WHO HE IS, glory to God, Then I can learn the other 2 and I think I have gotten this figured out at times and then He will bring it all back around, just at a deeper level, I am not defeated, please allow me to Give Him all the priase honor and glory thet Only He is worthy to recieve, Job talks about the Lord giving and the Lord taking away......"Blesssed be the name of the Lord"  I am blessed beyond all measure. I appreciate all eveything everybody has done for us,(and esp my Heavenly Father) it is just a learning curve, I have always been the one able to do the giving, and became quite comfortable in that concept, not that I am elevating myself by saying that, I am just having to learn to nestle and not wrestle. Not that God hasn't given over and above what I can ever hope to give, after all He gave His one and only Son..... and I in NO way am saying that I am even TRYING to understand that concept, I am just being yanked from my comfort zone, and I find I grow the best when I rest in faith that He has something better He wants to give me when He empties my hands of what I have been "comfortably" holding onto.

Please continue to pray, and I will continue to PRAISE HIM!!!!!!!!!!!!
THANKS

Brad, Kimber and I certainly understand where you are coming from about being the one able to do the giving. Then last year our world came tumbling down and we ended up being ones who needed some help and it was truly hard for me to accept it. Bul Praise the Lord because He showed us that He does give back. So many have prayed for us and helped us, that I am humbled by it all. I do not deserve His love and Mercy either, But "Blessed be the Name of the Lord"

We will continue to pray for you and we will PRAISE HIM with you, for He alone is worthy of praise.

God Bless You and your lovely wife.

you guys are too kind, thank you from the bottom of my brokenness, and the top of my REDEEMED HEART......Glory To God

[redeemed]

Listen we continue to struggle, although, I must give GOD all the credit for what He is doing in our lives. We are still unable to meet all our needs, although sssooo many people have reached out to us, I can;t even begin to mention all of them......this including ALL of you here, it means the world to family, as we read these prayers and words of kindness, and encouragement you have so graciuosly written......I say THANK YOU from the BOTTOM OF MY HEART. My daughter is off school again today and will be tom(wed) due to this flu, she has ran a fever for 14 days straight now, missed a week of school, and coughs like her lungs are going to blow out her chest. we have had her to the ER (sat night late) 2 doctors appointment, says it's viral, although she is on an antibiotic, and a nebulizer treatment.
 my wife still continues with SEVERE neck pain, waiting for an MRI, maybe mid Nov, then off to have 5th neck surgery. I am planing to start at Lancatsr bible College in jan 12 2010, providing my family is alright till then, I am going to finish my bachelors and do some type of work in the physc field, family healing, relationships, that type of thing, wherever He leadsI will follow, God has blesed us/me ssssooo much more than I'll ever deserve, I am just so thankful that He saw it in His plan to reach way down and save my soul from an everlasting fire.

GLORY TO GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
