His name is Joe, and he loves the Lord Jesus with all his heart.
A great provider for his wife and two sons, and a perfect example of Christian charity while I was growing up. A better example of a Godly man could no younger brother have.
He had his prostate removed a year ago. Now they say he needs chemo.
Please help me pray for him. That God will heal him.
You all are the best.
I know his best days are ahead.

Amen bro, and you said it well! "His best days are ahead" (Wether here in this life, or with the Lord jesus in eternity)

God, we bless you for this life, that is a confessed blessing here on earth.
I pray your perfect will to be done in his life, that you may always be Glorified.
May he recieve every lesson, blessing, and honor that you have in store for him while walking through, this "valley of shadow of death" for you are with Him, Lord God, and your Rod and staff comforts him.
bless and keep his family(including Rick) through the struggles and questions that will come about, and finally, May your perfect peace, rest remain and abide with them, both now, and forever more.
Amen.

Surely goodness and mercy will follow me all the days of my life...

Abba...King Hezekiah! :)
Thank You for Joe, and for his little brother. ♥
Please confound the 'wisdom of the wise'.
Just as You did for my children, making the doctors words look foolish,
so do for Joe. To show Your glory, Lord,
and to show Your great mercy and love toward this precious family.

Abba, may Joe celebrate many more birthdays,
and see all his children established,
and rejoice over the birth of many grandchildren,
and love his wife till they are both very old and gray and healthy and happy together.
Just because You are God! and You love to give good gifts
to those whom You love.
May the Name of the Lord Jesus be lifted up in all of this,
and His Name praised at these things,
so may it be.
We love You, Lord God! ♥

God bless all the Godly women who pray for people as if they are their own family!
Thank you all. Jesus is working through you!
The compassion of the female christian is certainly a huge way God shows His nature.
No wonder He made us male and female.
(Remember it was women weeping for Jesus as He went to the cross.)
Thank you so much!

Very warm greetings, Rick -- I am praying for your brother, Joe, that God through His most Divine Son Jesus, will bring healing unto him not only in the area in question but from the top of his head to the very soles of his feet! May the LORD intervene and touch him mightily this very day and bring him great comfort, peace, and Divine healing.

"For the man was above forty years old, on whom this miracle of healing was showed." -- ACTS OF THE APOSTLES 4:22 (KJV)

He's doing better.
He says he's running on people's prayers.
He can feel it.
Also, he is taking B17,B15, and enzyme supplements I got him.
(This was big, because God has given us natural remedies for cancer)
I know he will be alright.
Thanks for your prayers!

Thanks for your love.
Our prayers have been answered.
Here is my brother's email:

"Hi Rick, just to let you know I'm doing great. Not any significant side effects, I have 8 treatments left to make 38 total. We will wait 6 months before a PSA test.

I started right away taking the B17, B15, enzyme caps, and cruching the seeds. After checking alot of info on line I am up to 6 of the B17s which is 3 grams a day, one each of B15 and enzyme. I eat 20-30 seeds a day. I have had to order more B17. I'll do 21 more days of 3 grams and back off to .5 and 30 seeds. Only side effects are exactly as you say and only if I take the B17s sooner than 2 hrs apart. It will be 6 months before a PSA to see. Thanks so very much for helping me accept this natural way to take control of my health!

God bless you in all that you do!

Love, Joe
"

After having lost a Father, a sister, and a grandmother to cancer those words are music to my ears.
Thank each and every one of you who prayed!
Jesus is still on the throne, and we are one big family under His immutable council and Loving knowledge.
