Prayer Request for Toby

From comment section:

Please pray for my beloved Toby...my baby, my friend, my protector. He has been so very brave, so generous, so strong! He was diagnosed with bone cancer and colon cancer leading to kidney failure 7 months ago and was told he wouldn't last 24 hours and I should euthanize right then and there. I declined. By the grace of God and with the help of homeopathy and Chinese medicine he thrived and had great quality of life until a few days ago. He has now let me know it is time. I am staying up all night and praying Father God will take him in his sleep. Otherwise, the vet is expecting us in the morning. Please pray for Toby's transition to be gentle and peaceful. He is a light warrior of the highest and the bravest! I love you my Toby. Please give my Dad a kiss from me when you see him. Love Mama

Giving Thanks and Helping the Homeless

Today after Mass I was taking my dog on a walk when I saw a local homeless person all bandaged up and having trouble standing up.  He actually looked like he would collapse on the ground.  I asked him if there was anything I could do to help and he said he was just released from the hospital.  He looked in very bad shape.  He asked if I could get him a soda and insisted on paying for it.  I took his change and went to look for a soda machine.  In the meantime I called 911 even though he had asked me not to do so.

When I returned I gave him his soda and his change.  What touched my heart was the fact that he told me to keep the change.  Here was a poor man in very bad condition who has lived on the streets for as long as I can remember, yet he still kept his humanity and his dignity.  When the police arrived, he told the officer he was okay but I had to insist that he needed help.

The reason I bring this up today is because one of our priests gave a short homily the other day. He mentioned how people love their pets (and he even made kissy noises to demonstrate) and could walk right past a homeless person in need.

This blog is approximately 6 years old and there have been many, many prayer requests for the pets and animals in need.  The have also been many owners letting us know that their prayers had indeed been answered.  I thought that was good but I think we should be more to show our gratitude.  I hope that when your prayers are answered, and even if they are not, you can show your gratitude and appreciation to God by helping out His less fortunate children, the homeless, the elderly, and the lonely.  There are many ways we can help but the most important way is to acknowledge their existence.  A simple smile, a warm greeting or a kind word may make the world of difference to that person that day.

God is so good to us.  Please let us in turn be good to those that may come our way in need of our help.

I leave you with some quotes by Mother Teresa:

“Not all of us can do great things. But we can do small things with great love.”
“Every time you smile at someone, it is an action of love, a gift to that person, a beautiful thing.”
“Kind words can be short and easy to speak, but their echoes are truly endless.”
“Never worry about numbers. Help one person at a time and always start with the person nearest you.”

Prayer Request for MeMe the Cat

From our Facebook page:

Please pray for our cat, MeMe (pronounced May-May). He is a dear, sweet cat of about 8 or 9 years. He recently developed a nasty sinus infection that did not resolve with antibiotics. In fact, he got worse & developed what looked like swelling. When we took him back to the vet, we were told it was likely cancer. We went to a pet oncologist, who concurred. We can't lose him. MeMe is so loved. He has such a personality. His tumor is growing rapidly, yet he still remains even-tempered & loving. This year has already been riddled with so much grief & strife, losing MeMe would simply kill us. Please, please pray for his healing. Thank you.

Prayer Request for Hershey the Dog

From Facebook:

Can I please ask as many people as possible that are reading this post to please say a prayer for my dog Hershey? She started limping a week ago and I took her to the vet and didn't improve after her taking antibiotics and pain meds her toe is swelled up and doesn't seem to go down! Doctor said could indicated cancer and possible outcome if this doesn't improve would be amputation of her toe, I know it could sound silly but I don't want my dog to suffer and I don't want her to loose her toe, I believe in the power of prayers and I ask you to please pray with me and ask God to heal my dog, please please just say a prayer.

Prayer Request for Tobey the Dog

From comment section:

Heavenly Father, I come to your throne Father God with tremendous faith as I ask You dear Lord to please, please heal my precious baby Tobey. Tobey is a Pekingese mix and he's going on SEVENTEEN years of age. Tobey has been very sick since this spring. He's had many seizures or strokes, I'm not sure which,and they have left him nearly an invalid. Tobey miraculously is not in any pain to my knowledge. He's very content. Cataracts have taken a majority of his sight, he's unable to stand on his own,his back legs no longer work,but Tobey has great strength in his upper extremities and Tobey also has a very strong will to live. I can tell that he is hopeful that one day he will be able to regain his balance and actually be able to walk again. The veterinarians have said that there isn't anything that they can do for Tobey anymore and that all I can do is give him love and palliative care at home. He's able to eat good and drink milk, ensure,and his water. I noticed yesterday that Tobey just doesn't seem to be himself lately. Tonight he hasn't much if an appetite and he's not very interested in drinking anything. I can hear loud noises coming from his abdomen and I'm giving him extra love and attention as he's going through this little obstacle. Father God, You know what Tobey is to me and how I would give any and everything to see his health restored. Lord, you created Tobey and I know he was placed in my life to be my companion. Father God, please, please,I plea to You not to take him from me,not now,not soon,but please give us more time together on this earth. Heavenly Father, I'm not being selfish,I love Tobey with every fiber of my being and I will continue to do that as long as You,dear Lord, will allow me to keep Tobey. I feel that I just couldn't go on anymore without Tobey with me. Many have suggested to end his life Lord, but You know that I do not believe in euthanasia,which is a fancy word for murder of a pet just because they're disabled, sick,or handicapped. Lord I am believing for a miracle and I stand in expectation of one. As long as Tobey isn't in pain or suffering, I will provide for him as long as I am able to draw a breath. Thank you Lord for hearing my prayer. I ask that your healing hands touch Tobey tonight and make him well. Lord,Tobey is my everything, we have been through so much together. I pray for every other baby that needs health and healing. Thank you Jesus for the miracles that you have done and will continue to do for Tobey and myself. I stand in agreement that Tobey will pull through this and be with me for some more precious time. I ask this in Your name above all names Father God. In JESUS NAME, Amen,and amen.
