continue to pray for Cora

I ask for renewed and continued prayers for precious Cora. She is fighting hard, but is facing many challenges and her parents and extended family are on the roller coaster of highs and lows as they too learn about how to care for a child who is ill. Each day brings a new and different challenge as they work to make Cora comfortable and give her the strength and energy she needs to continue this fight with cancer.

Jessica and Joel's faith is profound and amazing to witness. They trust the Lord so completely and are fully leaning on him to heal Cora and give them strength, guidance, and comfort. They are certainly role models in how to live one's faith and convictions, even in the most difficult of circumstances. I'm awed!

I've added the pray for Cora button the right tool bar to remind everyone who reads to pray for Cora's healing and comfort and strength, courage, and peace for Jess and Joel. Clicking on Cora's button takes you to Jess and Joel's blog where they have been giving updates about Cora and sharing praises and prayer requests so that we can be praying for the specific things they need and praising God for the blessing he's providing them.

Thank you to Jan at Rose Haven for making Cora's button and sharing it so many more prayers for Cora, Jess, and Joel can be lifted up.
