.WHISNews21 Prayer Line and thoughts for Monday May 6, By Marty Martel.

Please keep in your thoughts and prayers my friends Jimmy and Lorraine Smart who are experiencing health issues.  Thank you.

Hi Marty, My mom, Julia Wardle, has been having a recurrent medical issue, and I’d be very appreciative if you’d place her on your prayer line.  She’s experienced some pretty serious nose bleeds, the latest requiring a trip to the emergency room.  My prayer is that the Lord will direct her to the right doctor, as those who have treated her with packings and cauterizations in the past don’t have the answer.  She’s 93 years old, lives alone, and is in need of blessings and the touch of Jesus’ hand, to cure this recurring situation and to give her peace and comfort.  She is a very faithful servant of the Lord.  Thanks so much – Tom Wardle

Hi Marty: Just wanted you to let everyone know again that my dear friend for 30 years “Margie Bowes Wilburn” who was married to Doyle Wilburn of The Wilburn Brothers, and was a former member herself of The Grand Ole Opry is back in Baptist Hospital, Nashville, TN and is trying to recover from a third stroke and pneumonia again. Please keep Margie in your thoughts and prayers. She has another long road to go to recover, but has a good spirit! – Margie B. Wilburn 1502 Brentwood Pointe Brentwood, TN 37027-2801

P.S. She is in Room 6306 (6th Floor) at Baptist Hospital, Phone # is 615-284-6306.

Thanks, Patricia Presley Photographer

Although we have all said the following prayer before, many times, it is good to once again send it out for all of us to remember. 

Prayer of Submission Dear Lord, I give you my hands to do your work;  I give you my feet to go your way;  I give you my eyes to see as you see;  I give you my tongue to speak your words;  I give you my mind that you may think in me; I give you my spirit that you may pray in me. Above all, I give you my heart that you may love in me. I give you my whole self, Lord, that you may grow in me, So that it is you who lives, works and prays in me. – Amen.
