Word Filled Wednesday 9/17/08


I added the verse to this incredible picture from Easy Worship. I often use this as a background for songs during worship.

Every time I see this picture a new verse comes to mind.
I'm so thankful that He makes intercession for us. He is our High Priest!

An Uncle on my husband's side of the family passed away last night from colon cancer. His colostomy and cancer flooded my mind with thoughts of my precious Aunt Faye and her courageous battle with colon cancer.


There were many times in my season of loss and grief that I didn't know how to pray. I would just fall to my knees and let Jesus intercede for me. I'm thankful that no matter what season we may find ourselves in, He intercedes to the Father on our behalf. Isn't that amazing??? What a mighty God we serve! Oh, there is no god like our God! Praise You, Father!

  19. "There were many times in my season of loss and grief that I didn't know how to pray. I would just fall to my knees and let Jesus intercede for me. I'm thankful that no matter what season we may find ourselves in, He intercedes to the Father on our behalf."

    I lost my Grandpa and Step Dad to cancer last year, and five years ago I lost my Dad to cancer, so I understand your feelings of loss :( I too am glad that he intercedes to the Father for us. It's wonderful to know that sometimes when we are hurting so much all we need to do is cry out His name and that is the whole prayer. He knows our needs and will see to them. Great post and beautiful picture!
