Spirit guides and doctors will diagnose the trouble and its cause, attention being directed to overcoming the cause, and then removing the symptoms. Please set time aside each day to send healing thoughts for each of those listed below, that they may receive from Spirit that which is for their highest and best needs. Your healing prayers are needed and benefit others in ways we may never know. To request that a name or situation be placed on this healing list, please send a note to [email protected]  Bob J., Camille and Chrissy Ebony and family Danielle S. Lindy C. Kim Jim M. Dolores M. Matthew M. Eilleen T. Loralei S. Tony F. (transitioned) Theresa F. and family Bill L. Mary C. Regina B.P. (recently transitioned) Larry B. Evonne L. Lorna L. Marjorie B. Austin J. Ryan L. Stephanie B. and family, David B. (recently transitioned) ======================= Prayers for all those who have experienced violence and abuse. Prayers for areas affected by recent natural disasters around the globe. Prayers for all those who are affected by recent and on-going wars. ======================= Prayer for the Middle East Creator, you are our Provider and Healer. We pray that Your timely help and support reach all who are in need. There is so much sorrow, pain, and conflict across the Middle East. We pray for leaders throughout the region and ask You to turn their minds and hearts toward peace. Online prayer modified by Valerie.
