I am having surgery tomorrow oct 2nd and am ready for this. Thankfully I am not nervous but just excited to get this done and over with. The prayer request that I do have is for my parents. I pray they aren't too nervous waiting while i'm in surgery...I know that waiting can be tough.

Lord, I pray for all of us Oct. bandsters. I am praying for a surgery without complications. I pray each of us have a calmness and peace before surgery and feel your presence with us...knowing you Lord know all things and are with us at all times. Also Lord i pray each of us are receptive to this new change in our life and have a successful journey with it. In all things, we believe and trust in you. In your precious and hold name amen.

Love and Blessing to us all!

Aww thanks girl!!

AMEN.

Best wishes and best of luck to everyone.

I agree be with us all Lord and guide our surgeons hands.

Amen to that! My prayers are with you all.

Amen.... I'm right there with you tomorrow. See you on the banded side

Amen and many blessing to all of us with many wishes for a speedy recovery as each one of us is banded...

Thank you so much for your words! I am being banded tomorrow also and as excited as I am there is also nervousness as well. That's why I'm up surfing when I should be asleep!

My prayers go with you PVChickie and Misty DTX. I will be thinking about you tomorrow.

As I was reading the posts for people being banded this first couple of days I found myself getting so nervous for us all. I am not banded until next week, but it seems so close. Surgery is scary... But after reading the prayer- I had a little boo-hoo and feel better. Bless you all- we will be great.

Best of luck to the new people.Donna

amen, yes God is with each and every one of us. He will hold us in his arms and keep us safe if we let him. I know God will be with me tomorrow Oct 3 as I go to surgery, just as he is with me everyday and night. God is my savior. Amen

Amen,

Thanks for the prayer, and i receive every word, I know God is with me,and in me, and around me, and I'am so grateful.

Amen, and AMEN! The Lord desires a full and healthy life for us, and He will bless each and every one as we walk in faith towards His desire for us. When you get scared or weary - take a moment of stillness and let Him comfort you. In ALL things praise His name. Thank you Lord!
