O God, Our God,
We are a part of Your family. Genesis tells us You created all humanity is Your image. The New Testament tells us we are joint heirs with Christ. The concept overwhelms us. So often we gather in corners with those who are just like us and we isolate ourselves from our other brothers and sisters. Please forgive us, Loving God. May we work for unity within Your family, but not strive for uniformity. Please bless us as we reach across the barriers that separate us. Empower us, we pray, to see Your face in the faces of our human family. This is our prayer in Jesus’ name. AMEN.

Stanley Hitt and Betty Shellady have both been dismissed from the hospital. Please pray for them as they continue to recover.
Jeanette Heitfeld sent the following email about her health: “The doctor finally got me called last evening. All 4 brain hormones are over producing which in turn makes the glands that produce adrenaline, insulin, digestive fluids, melatonin for sleep, etc. malfunction. This can be caused by a toxic system being continually poisoned by foods I am allergic to, lack of sleep, and stress from a sick body. All of these of course were in existence. I guess I'm understanding what "being sick of yourself", "and going in circles" means." Ha!
Since I've been off the severe foods for 10 days, I'm not in as much muscle and joint pain, the GI system is working some better, and I'm finally getting at least 5 hours of sleep each night the last 4 days. He wants to wait 3 more weeks and do some retesting if I continue improving. He's hoping that things will level out so I don't have to go on more medication. He said it appears from the improving symptoms that the daily shot is getting the bad bacteria in my stomach under control. All this goes to say he is pleased and thinks the improvement, although slow, will continue.
All the prayers are helping. Thanks!
Peace, hope, joy,
Jeanette
