She's A Fighter

In this holiday season, sometimes it's easy to get lost in what it is all about. Christmas is not about Santa or presents or even turkey. Honestly, I don't think it's really about family, either. It's about a baby that was born to come and die for the people on this Earth that he loved so that they may have a chance to spend eternity with him..."no more sorrow, no more pain." I hope we all remember how amazingly blessed we are this Christmas.
As we meet with our families and eat this Christmas and celebrate this new year coming, I ask you to remember and pray for a high school friend of mine. I have not really kept in touch with her but I am following her on Facebook and I would like to ask you to pray for her and her healing. A few years ago, Teri was diagnosed with Lyme Disease. If you don't know about this, Google it. It has been completely debilitating and my heart aches for Teri. She is such a fighter. She is currently in the D.R. receiving some intense treatment. This past Thanksgiving, she was able to sit and eat with her family for Thanksgiving after not being able to for years (this is what I read on her FB).
If you could, as you talk to our Father tonight, or multiple nights please, ask for His will for Teri. Ask for healing and strength and understanding and patience.
God has a purpose for her and I am more than certain that she has been able to bring so many people to know him through her story. She is such a Godly, strong, wonderful woman and I am thankful to say that I have known her.
(These are all taken from her Facebook from, I believe, before she was diagnosed-what a beautiful girl-she still is!)
