Prayers Needed - Dental Issues


In all my 72 years, I have heard many presidents address the cost of health coverage and how much they want to help the low income person or the person without coverage on their job. I cannot remember ever hearing one seriously, and in depth, address the need for dental care for anyone in those predicaments, yet alone for seniors.

Anyhow, a household member, who has no dental coverage and certainly not enough funds for normal dental care, is having one tough time with one tough tooth that refuses to "let go." This silly thing is hanging on by a thread. Or, maybe it's hanging on by a filament that is as strong a the fishing line needed to land a 400 pound marlin. I'm about to grab my seam ripper and yank open his poor mouth.

We've been praying on this, but as we all know, prayers have been known to be answered quickly when "two or three are gathered together" in His name. The online community might not be gathered together physically, but we are certainly gathered together spiritually. So, can you offer a small prayer on this issue for us?

Father, you who created every cell in our bodies, please glance in our direction and heal this household member of his affliction. Yet, as always, not our will but thine be done. Please, also, bless everyone who has everyone uttered a prayer on our behalf by hearing their prayers, as well.
