    OK. I need prayers too.

    I ask for prayers for my wife, Lorena and her brothers and sisters because her mom passed away this weekend. She was in convalescent care and they are mostly happy for her, but they are also in pain.

    I need prayers too, because I am supposed to be taking care of them and some other people who have big things going on, but I feel drained. I want to get it back together at least somewhat tomorrow so I can help out.

    Thanks, friends.

    PS. My posts have gotten kind of ridiculous and slap-happy, which is usually a sign I need to slow down and look at what's bugging me. Thank you for the free therapy session.

    My thoughts and prayers for your family and you Brian! Hang tough. Your profession is one of those I couldn't handle. I am not emotionally strong enough. Be well friend.

    Brian, I'm going to give you back some advice you once gave me . . . take care of yourself first because if you don't you can't take care of others. Will pray for all.

    I didn't change my mind, my mind changed me.

    Brian,
    Sorry to hear of your family's loss. Prayers for peace and strength. As Belinda said, make sure you take care of yourself.

    Hang in there Brian. Sometimes people forget the Pastor is only human too. You know where your strength comes from.

    Taking from what Rick Potter said, sometimes the Pastor forgets he is human. Cut yourself some slack and God will get you through whatever you are facing. My condolences to you family.
