Hi everyone, could you please pray for my brother!
he (again) was in a fight on friday night and it looks like in a punch he seems to have cut his hand and its gotten infected, hes going into surgery tomorrow morning as the infection is travelling up his arm!
hes never been hurt in a fight before, except black eyes and bruises etc, but this time i think hes realised hes got to calm down, he seems to want to stick up for all of his friends and family but goes about it the wrong way, especially when he has had a few drinks inside him, please pray for him tomorrow whilst in surgery that the infection doesnt travel any further and he doesnt lose his finger or worse!
but also could you please pray for his anger! hes fine when sober, and fine when drinking unless someone starts on him or threatens friends or family and he needs to know its not right! he suffers from fits when he sees blood too and we dont know what causes that so please pray he calms down a bit.
sorry if that was confusing, but todays been "one of those days" lol

God bless you all and thank you in advance for your prayers
:)

Has your brother already accepted Jesus? (Just checking ;))

I'm sorry that your family is dealing with this difficult situation. If you want to talk, or just vent, feel free to send me a message.

And I will certainly pray for your brother.

thank you both!

its difficult to know if he has accepted Jesus, he doesnt like talking about anything as he is scared, although he does openly admit he is scared, i pray that one day he does talk but im not sure if thats a selfish thing, as i want him to tell me hes accepted Jesus, but i really feel he does have a relationship with Him

Honey- how frightening for your brother!
Medically speaking, what's happening to him is not good!
but in the Lord...yeah. ♥

I have asked God to intervene on his behalf, and to save his arm, hand, fingers, soul. ♥
I ask God to help him learn to deal with this anger. When Mark and I were married, he had a terrible anger problem. (if you met him you'd be like everyone else who hears this...hubbawhaaaa??? lol) Just to say I have seen the Lord work wonders in this exact area. :)
He is a good and faithful Father.

Expecting great things for your bro, little one.
love,
ellie

My brothers back in surgery this morning to stitch him all up! No sign of any more infection and he said never again is he going to fight! Thank you for your prayers! God is good! He keeps his arm, his hand, and his finger and gains a new outlook in fighting! God bless you all for praying for him and I pray jesus takes over his heart!

Angel thank you for the update!! I have a little medical training, and I this has been weighing heavily on my mind and heart, knowing some of the possibilities, and thinking he must have waited (in typical male fashion ;) ) almost too long to seek medical help.

Abba, how I thank You!! How happy You have made this child tonight. :)
I offer You my praise and glorify You only in this. You healed a young man's ability to use two hands, and this is no small thing!
As you healed his body, Lord, please heal his heart. Show him that You are willing to take this anger from him, and to use him for Your own perfect purpose. Remove the things that might blind him to Your great love for him so that he can come fully into Your Kingdom.
In the name of the One Who made the way, and is the Way, sweet Jesus. Amen!

Thank You, Father, for the fellowship of the Spirit in the body of Christ. Thank You that when we come to You in prayer we are join to one another. How comforting it is to know that, even when I am seperated physically from my brothers and sisters in christ, I am never alone as long as I am in their prayers. Amen.. Blessed be in the name of the Lord.(Rom15:30)

That's great news! Praying that this experience will be the roadblock down the path he's been traveling. May the Spirit give him courage and guidance !

He's very blessed to have you for a sister :)
