'And all things, whatever you
shall ask in prayer, believing, you shall receive.'
Matthew 21:22
February 12, 2003
(prayer by a Klamath Basin farmer for President Bush,
Commissioner John Keyes, Gail Norton and
Sue Ellen Wooldridge)
Father, be with the Department of the Interior and President
Bush. May they only do your will. Promises were made in
2002 by John Keyes concerning more water to the farmers for
taking away more private land--may he keep his word. May
those making decisions now--Gail Norton and Sue Ellen
Wooldridge and others---may they not base their decisions and
policies on politics and media pressure. The life or
death of our community is in your hands Lord, so we ask you to
convict these representatives of truth, justice and honesty.
We trust you God.
Also, be with our little community.
In Jesus name we pray,
amen

Please continue to pray for the McKoen family and friends, and
Jerry, who has not been found. Also, pray for our
President, that he makes the right choices in our quest for
world peace, and for HIS will in the
Klamath Basin.

A Prayer
Dear Father,
The days and sleepless nights are a
continual nightmare, not knowing if Jerry is alive, where and
how he is, and what we can do to find him. PLEASE be with
Jerry. He is our son, our friend, our cousin, our neighbor.
Guide us in our search for Jerry, and please, please God, give
us peace and strength. Tell me what you want me to do to find
Jerry. Tell me how I can assist in the search,
and in
supporting his loved ones. I ask these things in Jesus name,
amen
Dear God,
You know that I tend to pray backwards ... thank You for
understanding that my faith is such that it gives the
ability to thank You for Your Mighty Word. Although I don't think that he and I ever met, last
year I visited the area of Oregon that he called home.
It is beautiful, but it is vast. God, you have my heartfelt
thanks that You are protecting those who know and love Jerry,
just as You are carrying them at this time. They see only one
set of footprints on the beach, because You are uplifting them
through this sad and hard time. Thy will be done, on
earth as it is in Heaven.
"From a friend who cares" (Ohio)
