oh father thank you for bringing joy two days in a row even if yesterday i got realy anoyed it was like everything was trying to prevent me from going to the dr i took 1h 40min on bus all i had to do was cross the street to get to the dr but the cross light didnt work and the trafic light switch so fast i had two choice take bus back and give up or use my brain and invent a work around so i cross the oposit way then try that cross light and it work cross again and finaly get to where i need to go im sorry i got anoyed i was stressed i waited 3 trafic light with no end in sight and my very limited energy was draining fast. and the dr told me im finaly stable and that i need to slowly start doing excersise and that my brain needs time to adjust having both eyes again and thats why i feal slugish. and that the endo this friday will adjust the pills if needed . and the dr got me a social worker. and the social worker called me today she set up physical terapy for me and a shrink and when she ask me if i went to church i said no i havnt realy gone since 2002 thats twenty four years reason is because i moved to a difrent state for my health and i couldnt find a church i liked but in my home state i would go to many church and have a very good time i realy miss that. so she said she would get me a local church to help me do activity. father i am doing my ssa apeal now give me the wisdom to fill out the online form. i told the social worker that with the limited money i get i save it and buy cheap video game hoping the spark will trigger joy and i did manage to play seventy hours in a rpg game something i havnt been able to do in decades i also told her i use to be very active person always going out but being forced to sit down all day leaves me not much joy twenty four years like that. i told her i only find joy now in reading chineese books with machine translation and then trying to figure out what there talking about and i laugh at the pure nonsense i read while my brain enjoy the puzzle. so thank you father for opening the door and i hope this church community is a good one i leave that in your hands because so far i only found one church down where i live and i only went once and walked away i was like this is not a place of god its more like bah i forgot the word but anyways i wont go to a church not with the pressence of god but makes me feal discusted. thank you father twenty four years i have been complaining about my health and i got gaslight and finaly the pcp you put takes me very serious and she told me my doors are always open for you feal free to walk in with out appointment i would take the time to see you when needed. in jesus name i pray amen.
 
We rejoice with you and give thanks to our Father with you for these two days of joy He has given you, and we thank Him for hearing your honest and humble heart. It is good to come before Him with thanksgiving even for small victories, for this is the day that Yahweh has made. We will rejoice and be glad in it. Psalm 118:24 and we are commanded to rejoice in the Lord always. Again we will say, rejoice. Philippians 4:4

We hear how hard that trip to the doctor was for you, the long bus ride, the broken crosswalk light, the quickly changing signals, and the draining of your very limited energy. We understand that stress and annoyance in that moment, and we are grateful you brought it to the Father in confession. Be angry, and don’t sin. Don’t let the sun go down on your wrath. Ephesians 4:26 and let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, and slow to anger. James 1:19 Your workaround to cross the other way shows the wisdom God gave you to persevere, and we praise Him that you did not give up and go home but pressed on to get the care you needed.

We thank God with you that your doctor says you are finally stable, that she is taking you seriously after twenty four years of being gaslight and dismissed, and that she has opened her door to you without appointment. This is the Lord's doing. Praise Yahweh, my soul, and don’t forget all his benefits, who forgives all your sins, who heals all your diseases. Psalm 103:2-3 We pray He will continue to guide her and the endocrinologist you will see this Friday, that any adjustment to your pills will be exactly what your body needs, and that your brain will be given time to adjust to having both eyes again. We thank God that He gives power to the weak and increases the strength of him who has no might. Isaiah 40:29 and that they who wait for Yahweh will renew their strength. Isaiah 40:31 Your sluggishness as you heal is not failure, it is your body recovering, and we pray for patience and grace for yourself as the Lord restores you step by step.

We also thank God for providing the social worker and for the physical therapy and counseling she has set up for you. We pray for wisdom and compassion for her, and that these supports will truly help rebuild your strength and joy. We are especially joyful that she asked about church and is working to connect you with a local church community to help you with activities. We have missed fellowship for so long and we understand why you have felt displaced since moving for your health and could not find a church you liked, while you remember with fondness the many churches you attended in your home state. We encourage you not to give up on gathering, for we are told not forsaking our own assembling together, as the custom of some is, but exhorting one another. Hebrews 10:25 It is right to desire a church where the presence of God is truly felt, where the Word is taught faithfully and Jesus Christ is lifted up, and to walk away from a place that feels empty or even disgusting to your spirit. We pray with you that the Father will lead you to a Bible believing church where you can worship, grow, and find genuine fellowship, for how good and how pleasant it is for brothers to live together in unity. Psalm 133:1

We lift up your SSA appeal before the Lord and ask for clear wisdom to fill out the online forms. If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him. James 1:5 We pray God will give you clarity of mind, help you recall and record what is needed, and provide favor in this process, for we know that all things work together for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose. Romans 8:28

We hear how you have tried to steward your limited resources well, saving to buy inexpensive games in hopes of sparking joy, and we rejoice that you were able to play seventy hours in a role playing game, something you had not been able to do in decades. We hear too how you were once a very active person and how being forced to sit down all day for twenty four years has left you with little joy, and how now you find a puzzle and laughter in reading Chinese books with machine translation even through the nonsense. God understands these small delights and He wants to be your deepest joy. Delight yourself also in Yahweh, and he will give you the desires of your heart. Psalm 37:4 We pray that as your body slowly begins exercise as your doctor advised, honoring your body as a temple of the Holy Spirit, 1 Corinthians 6:19-20, you will find renewed strength and that the Lord will restore the joy that long illness has dimmed.

We thank you for praying in the name of Jesus, for it is only through Him we have access to the Father. In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6-7 There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved. Acts 4:12

Together we pray, Father, we thank You for Your mercy and faithfulness to our dear one after twenty four years of waiting and suffering. Thank You for the good reports, for the doctor who listens, for the social worker, for physical therapy and counseling, and for opening the door to Christian fellowship again. Forgive us for moments of annoyance and stress and teach us Your patience. Give wisdom for the SSA appeal and for every form that must be filled out. Guide the endocrinologist on Friday and bring perfect stability to health. Grant time and grace for the brain and body to heal and adjust, and give joy in small things while teaching us to find our greatest joy in You. Lead to a true church home where Your Word is preached and Your presence dwells, and rebuild community and purpose day by day. We ask for renewed energy, for safe travels, for protection over health, and for a spark of joy that remains. We entrust all these things into Your loving hands in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, amen.
