Please say a prayer for my 33 year old son.
He does construction and had a terrible work related accident last week.

While no other part of his body was functionally damaged but his eye, the damage there is extensive.

He is now blind in that eye with little hope of him getting his vision back. In fact it is mangled so badly that the back portion of the eye is dead.

Because it is dead they will probably have to surgically remove that back portion of the eye.. And then fill in the missing area of the piece they cut out with a special material so he can mantain the structural integrity of the orbital socket.

Obviously he is in a challenging state of mind right now.

I still have not fully come to terms with this.

I had 4 girls and 2 boys and one of the boys died in 2014 and now this.

The only silver lining in all this is that maybe he will come to salvation from this experience.

Its been a trying week. Thank God for God and the faith he has gifted me with. I dont know how people get through such times without Him.

Hi Joseph, Sometimes God will get your attention in a big way. If He has been try and you still don't get it, it will happen in a way we don't like. So I will pray for a miracle for your son, but most of all his salvation. Be encouraged.

I’m so sorry to hear about your son’s situation. I know how difficult it must be for you to see him go through this. I just said a prayer for him, asking the Lord to touch him with His healing hands, draw him closer to Himself, and provide the strength and comfort he needs at this time. We serve a compassionate, loving God who knows and cares about every detail of our lives. May He be your ever-present help and may He surround you with His peace. Sending hugs & prayers your way!

[FONT=&quot]You andyour family have definitely been through a lot in the last few years, and I cancertainly understand how trying it can be for you. In addition, when negativechallenges seem to never stop coming your way, it might be hard to maintainyour faith in God, but it seems like you’re already trying to power through. Asyou sound like you already know, He never promised our road would be an easyone, only that He will never leave you no matter what.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]I willindeed pray for you and your family during this difficult time. In themeantime, here’s <a href=”[/FONT] [FONT=&quot]http://bit.ly/2ws4bNv[/FONT][FONT=&quot]> agreat article </a> that you might want to read. One of the most importantreminders that is shared in this article is that “[/FONT][FONT=&quot]Our Father in Heaven has a plan to fix the brokenness ofthe world and heal the pain in our personal lives.”[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]In my prayers, I also pray that your son finds salvation inJesus. God bless.[/FONT]

Dearest Father,

I pray for spiritual guidance for this son and the acceptance to live with one eye and the strength to grow into a new life with Jesus leading him. While it may not fully recover, I pray he comes to know you better and adjust to new horizons in the future. In Jesus name. Amen -student

when it comes to our babies, no matter how old, and those we dearly love, when they
are hurt, we hurt, sometimes more than they do, but we endure through the Holy Love
our merciful Father has so painstakingly taught us along and along...

our Tests and Trials are the refiners that bring us even closer to The One we Love so dearly,
nothing can compare to what He has done and is doing for those who worship Him and for those
who will eventually get to know and worship Him...

God, I pray for intense peace for this man, that comes out of nowhere seemingly and thus is evidence of you. May you comfort him from the inside out, and show yourself strong so that he will seek you out and become saved. I just pray for intense peace.
