Oh Nanny1086 I am sure you are just as deserving of a mention on the prayer list as anyone else.

I am not a church goer but I do think it's nice that people who have a faith ask their church to include people in their prayers for whatever reason. When my late hubby was ill, he was regularly on the prayer list at his parents' church and no-one there knew him. I always appreciated that.

Makes you think they know something you don't ! In fact it's a kindness and you never know what the power of prayer and thought can do. We hope it helps, and it makes me smile too. That's healing. Sue x

Oh Nanny your just as deserving as anyone else and i often get put on the prayer list x

I agree Nanny - you are just as deserving as the others. My mum once suffered from very severe sciatica and the pain was wearing her very thin. Without her knowledge her nephew and his wife (who are born again Christians) got a special prayer for her said at their church. A few days afterwards her sciatica went. Coincidence? Who knows? x

I am really happy someone thought to have a prayer said for you Nanny1086 . You are deserving of prayers like anyone else. I am not particularly religious but I find that very touching.

Hoping you are doing okay today.

It is too Nanny....My neighbour has been diagnosed with breast cancer. We were sitting in the front garden yesterday after she returned from Church. She is off on a four day break today before she goes for her op. She warned them all at her Church that they are not to light her a prayer candle...because she has no intention of being ill.

Prays dont have to be for illness pray can be for all the other things that can illness can impact like family etc.

in reply to elanaoali

Don't know much about prayer elanaoli , but certainly if anything brings comfort and hope to those who do then to be sure that is one of the finest things on this planet.

Yes, never underestimate the power of prayer. It is such a comfort to put your troubles in the hands of a Higher Being.
