I am asking for prayers for my youngest sister
I can't go into details now but really need them for her especially this morning as I just received a call.
I love her so much and can't bear losing her.
Thank you Family

Done. Anything else you need that can help?

Father we ask nothing short of a miracle for Shell's sister! We asked that your grace will fall like rain and that your Kingdom will be glorified through Jesus in this situtation!

Lord, even those most devout struggle with pain and anguish for loved ones...you have to know that-- as you sacrificed your one and only Son for us...
Help Shell's sister to amaze her doctors and recover fully to glorify your name as Healer and God of us all. Give them all peace and strength as they wait on Your will. amen.

Thank you everyone, and forgive me for sounding selfish and alarming or misleading with this request or too personal, I know it is the Father's will but the situation with her is an abusive relationship and fear for her safety and welfare.
She's 29 and at a point where she may be self destructive and just need to ask for intervention at this time in prayer.
She is at her lowest point and praying for her to be able to get out of this.
It crushes me to have anyone go through an abusive situation and especially when you feel helpless beyond your control, it makes me sick to my stomache and rages me and really trying hard not to feel like this, so please asking for more prayer support for this.
Thank you greatfully.

prayers sent from kentucky . hope she is alright .

Still unsure how she is doing right now and has a history of the physical abuse, 10 years of it, but really praying to get her out. We suspected but had no idea things were this bad.
Thanks again

Ahhh...I read it to be more medical, but surely tolerating abuse becomes both physical and is about self esteem and other emotional issues, too!
IT's hard to understand from the outside, Shell, how people can start to believe they're worth so little, that they deserve to be treated that way.
It's hard too for me as a guy to understand how anybody gets their jollies whackin around a female...but there are lots of ways to abuse: mental, emotional, verbal... and both genders can and do them well!
I have gone through this with dear friends... the key, as you said, is to get her to see her own value and that God loves her and He "don't make junk."
You're rage is also understandable...but we're called to hate the behavior and love the offender. That one still escapes me in situations like this.
Prayers for your sister to be touched by the Holy Spirit to help her see the pickle she's in and realize that "only she can prevent forest fires"---and as overwhelming as that must seem to her where she is, God can make it happen if she but asks... in His time...and that is the hard part!
Peace and prayers for all...

Doc, you are so right, I agree 100%
Just have not seen her in 2 years and was asked to pray for her safety and life at this point.
Thanks everyone

Praying hard for her and wishing you and yours the very best!

Prayers sent..
Let her know theres plaenty of resources available for her to get her out of that situation...one of the hardest parts is the getting out.
When I see someone in that situation I ask them, "Are you happier when he/she (abuser) is not there or at home? They usually reply yes and I ask "Wouldn't you want to feel that way all the time?" and they usually reply yes again. Sometimes a light then goes off and they start moving to fix what they're in.

Shell, It is tough to see someone going down a dead end road and even more so when it is a family member.All that we can do, besides letting that person know that we love them and are only concerned for what is best for them,is pray that God sends someone or something into there life that helps them see the light.I pray that your sister comes around Shell and that she starts looking at herself in a positive way and realizes that she deserves better than this.Stay strong Shell.
