I have an idea....everyone, I need you to join in PLEASE FOR MEMO.

I was reading Suzanne Lockharts thread (again) and a thought came to me. I would like to start a continuous thread of prayers and thoughts for them.

Here's the deal, I need each and everyone of you to join in. Not just once, but every day starting now and until Memo comes home. I would like this thread to go on without stopping. Add your prayer, your thoughts, or your wishes to Suzanne and add them often.

Let's hold Suzanne up to God and wrap the Lockharts in love. Do you think we can keep this up without the thread stopping until Memo comes home? I'm ready to give it a try! Let's give the Lockharts everything we have people!

Suzanne....this one is for you and Memo! You don't have to post on it if you can't. We understand. Just come here and read and know that you are being blessed and loved by others around the world. We will not stop praying for and thinking of you until Memo is home.

I will start...

Dear Lord,
I read a lot in your Word today and know that you ARE hearing all the prayers that have been, are and will be offered on behalf of the Lockharts and Memo. So today Lord, let them feel in their hearts that you are bigger than anything they are facing in Guatemala. Let Memo feel their love and Your love as you hold him close to You. Lord, we are not demanding anything of you by writing on this thread, but we are holding our sister and her son close to Your heart. Thank-you for each and every little blessing you give us.
In Your name I pray.
Amen.

Please, don't let this thread stop...

Count me in

With three young ones home now, I don't have a ton of time to get on the threads each day, but I will commit to a few times a day. I already practically pray without ceasing for the Lockharts and Memo (who is truely a Lockhart in our hearts).

Suzanne (my secret twin )- you know you are always in my thoughts and I pray for you and your family constantly. Memo is very special to me and I know how much your family need him home now.

God, hear our constant prayers and make this family complete. They are already a family in their hearts, but Memo is so far away and this entire family is hurting. Please let Memo come home while Mark is in Guatemala. Please watch over his travel and keep them safe. Take care of the family and make them whole - with Memo.
Watch over those that are in control of Memo's destiny and give them the strength and wisdom to get his case complete and final. God they need an answer, they need peace, most of all they need Memo.

In your name....

Amen

Dear Lord, You are an awesome God and we praise You for being the light of our salvation. We thank You for the priviledge of being able to come and lay our burdens at the foot of the cross. Lord, we intercede for Suzanne, Mark, her family and Memo. We cry out to You on their behalf. We pray for Mark and for his job, that he will not get discouraged, that You will give him a safe trip to see Memo, for Suzanne-that You will lift her spirits up and restore to her the joy of her salvation,for Memo-that You will keep him healthy and confident that someone is fighting for him to come home. WE pray for the govt of Guatemala-that you will motivate the powers that be to do what is necessary to bring him home to the Lockharts. We ask this all in Jesus Precious Name,Amen
Doretta
