I’m glad to hear that Phil. It’s always good to have answers to prayer.

I’d value prayer please for a very good friend of mine who introduced me to parkrun and regular running again after illness.

His name is Roger, and earlier this year he was diagnosed with lung cancer, which subsequently spread to bone and brain.

He had been given about a year or so to live, but was told this afternoon that he had just a matter of weeks. He can manage to walk with a frame, but his talking and swallowing has become difficult.

I feel that prayer for peace for Roger and his family would be appreciated, and that suffering would be minimal.

Thank you.

ER, I will be praying for your friend Roger, and his family at this difficult time; for you also, as he seems to be quite close to you and so you will be feeling it too.

RFJ, I'm praying for you too. You must be going through an awful time mentally and emotionally. All I can say may appear to be just glib platitudes, but nevertheless true. That is that God whom you trust is in control, and Peter writes, "Casting all your cares upon Him, He cares for you." I pray that you will feel Jesus close by you now and in the months and years to come. He is our burden bearer and shares our sorrows.
