“Be careful for nothing; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.  And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.  Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.”  Philippians 4: 6-8

 

Sandy Wrote…When anxious, our minds become wrapped around any number of possible scenarios. “What if” becomes the beginning of a lot of sentences: “what if” this doesn’t work out, “what if” that doesn’t work out, “work if” this doesn’t happen, etc.

“What if’s” rarely happen as we imagine them, and even when a difficult situation does present itself, God provides the grace to endure and succeed. Worry will not add a hair to our heads, but it will cause us to take our minds off of the things of God and off of the truth.

The truth is that when we trust God with our needs and cares, He will always meet our needs and give us peace beyond our understanding.

Be'ad Chaim Loves all the Little Ones...Born and Unborn

God is Good:

* Our office was sold last week and we have been given until Aug. 1st to move. I have felt for some time that God is leading us to buy a much bigger office. At this moment, we have only begun to have the finances to buy an office. Please join us today as we seek the Lord for direction, resources, and faith to buy the place that He has ordained. This project is stretching our faith.

* On Tuesday morning, a group is coming from England to plant trees in memory of the unborn in the Ganei Chaim. As always, we want to see healing for all those who have suffered the loss of an unborn child.

Please lift these up in prayer:

* Pray that illegal abortion clinics will be closed and fined. Pray that doctors will lose their licenses for doing illegal abortions.

* Continue to pray for social workers to refer their clients to us as an option to abortion. The term “I have no choice” needs to become obsolete.

* Pray for our outreach to be effective and in God’s appointed places.

* Pray for “S”, an Arab women who will come for counseling this week. Several years ago, we helped her continue her pregnancy until birth although she knew that the baby couldn’t survive. She bravely gave birth, rather than aborting, and saw the baby die several minutes later. Her husband carried the baby from the hospital and buried him. Although she knows that she did the right thing, she still has much pain over her difficult life, the loss of the child and her marriage. Please pray for her.

* Pray for a meeting in Nazareth where I will speak to a group of women on motherhood.

* 17 year old client M would like to move into our women’s shelter, but because of her age, we are not sure that it’s legal without parental consent.

* Continue to pray for baby Adam’s eyes and general development.

* Prayers for health: Baby Netalie has a brain tumor and may have surgery this week. She needs prayer as do her parents.  Alem, new mother, has a brain tumor and kidney problems. Pray for healing.  M, the daughter of one of our counselors, has cancer. Please pray for her healing and salvation. Continue to pray for new mother S who is very ill.

* SHARON IN JERUSALEM WROTE: A single woman “E” is pregnant by her boyfriend who is in jail on felony charges.  A 16 year old is 5 1/2 weeks pregnant by her 16 year old boyfriend. She does not want her parents to know that she will abort.

* MAAYAN IN TIBERIAS SAID: Pray for S who has trouble with her husband. She is 28 years old and wants to have an abortion. Pray for another client, S, who is due in a month in a half. The family situation is very complicated and she is trying to get her own apartment.

* ALA IN BEERSHEVA SAID: Please keep them all in your prayers. They are very stressed out from all the air raids and appreciate our standing with them in prayer.

* VERED IN ACCO SAID: Pray for T who is due in May. She has a disabled child already and the doctors are putting pressure on her to abort because they think there will be something wrong with him.  Pray for M who is due May 10th. She is unstable and was living on the streets.

* DVORA IN EILAT SAID: Pray for V because she doesn’t have citizenship and they want to send her back to Uzbekistan. She has been here 4 years. Her baby who was born on March 7th hasn’t been registered.

Many blessings,

Sandy and Be’ad Chaim team
