Good morning friend,
Nothing happening on my end. Pat is smack in the middle of his first 2 weeks. The counselor will be working with him to accept the fact that he needs to go on to a residential facility for more treatment.
So
Exact prayer request:
1. That the Lord will continue to work in Pat to get the best treatment possible.
2. Praise of Thanks for you kind reader.
See you next week.

More Bible Verses, I need them today
If you have a verse you feel would be important for our prayer journey, please feel free to referance it in comments
These are from the New American Standard Bible
Luke 18
1Now He was telling them a parable to show that at all times they ought to pray and not to lose heart,
2saying, "In a certain city there was a judge who did not fear God and did not respect man.
3"There was a widow in that city, and she kept coming to him, saying, 'Give me legal protection from my opponent.'
4"For a while he was unwilling; but afterward he said to himself, 'Even though I do not fear God nor respect man,
5yet because this widow bothers me, I will give her legal protection, otherwise by continually coming she will wear me out.'"
6And the Lord said, "Hear what the unrighteous judge said;
7now, will not God bring about justice for His elect who cry to Him day and night, and will He delay long over them?
8"I tell you that He will bring about justice for them quickly. However, when the Son of Man comes, will He find faith on the earth?"

I don't have myself together yet but...
Ok,
Now I will just go on.
Exact prayer requests.
1. Pat will be coming to his 10 days off now. It will be a very hard time. It is expected this is the time that he will begin to get angry (wow, this is scary to me) or angrier, he will begin to understand what has happened to him, he will either walk or stay. He really needs prayer right now that God will hold him tight.
I will request that we pray exactly "Father, Hold Patrick with all your might, not allowing him to make any decision that will be harmful to himself. Hold him tight and direct his body and mind to heal as only You can do."
We are directed to pray with direction and repeatedly. I will find the story and update here. I think we, I think I need it now.
2. I believe that in all things we are directed to give Thanks. I am having a bit of trouble today with this so maybe you have thoughts. Right now, I give Thanks that last night, I went to Zumba and worked hard at it so last night I could not sit around the house and worry.
Now I will just go on.

Good Morning Family and Friends.
I saw Pat last night for a minute. He shaved his hair off.
He is worried today because so many people know about this. As I said, he told me he was embarressed that he was an addict and in detox.
I told him
"Did you ever think that maybe people you know knew that something was wrong with you before now?
Don't you know that most everyone you know knew that you had a major problem?
I was the only one with blinders on! And, we live in a small community. People talk. Everyone links to someone just 2 or 3 people away."
He is not there yet.
I was quoted a statistic last night that I want to share with you. This is a warning though, it is the scariest thing I could ever had been told! Don't read further unless you want to be scared. Seriously. This is not me telling you a joke.

Early Tuesday morning
Yesterday, Pat went to the hospital. They gave him a few liters of fluid and sent him back. His dad went to sit with him and it sounds like they talked amicably for about 2 hours. Mike left to pick me up, then the phone calls started....
