Prayer for Melisa L.

This is a prayer said at every Jewish service for the well-being of others:

Mi she-bei-rach a-vo-tei-nu.

M'kor ha-bra-cha I'i-mo-tei-nu.
May the source of strength who blessed the ones before us
Help us find the courage to make our lives a blessing
And let us say, Amen.
Mi she-bei-rach I-mo-tei-nu.

M'kor ha-bra-cha l'a-vo-tei-nu.
Bless those in need of healing with r'fu-a sh'lei-ma;
The renewal of body, the renewal of spirit;

I hope Melisa begins to feel better very soon, she does not deserve to be as sick as she is. I look forward to the day when she is completely well.

Prayer for Melisa

In His love from Bear, Diana and Heth Holtry

Dear Lord,

TY for the beauty, the rain today and your will to make all things possible. We praise you for the ways that you are helping us to grow in grace b/c of your gift of Jesus and His Spirit in us to believe.

Lord, you are the ancient of days and the One true God who can rescue your people from the depths.

I pray for your precious daughter, Melisa, Lord, and I ask for your loving mercy as she battles the bacterias in her body.

Lord, bring this horrendous reality into the light and heal your people.

We know that our bodies are wearing and that your greatest desire is for the health of our souls; but, we know that anything that is not of you is from the enemy. Please bring answers through wise scientists and doctors quickly, Lord, and stomp on the head of that snake. Give strength to Melisa while she waits, Lord.

It is so hard to muster the energy through pain and exhaustion from this disease. Melisa is like Heather, Lord. They are young and ready to go for you. We know that you can use these beautiful women, even in their suffering; but You tell us we can come boldly before your throne bringing our praise and our pleas to you. I ask you to help Melisa’s body to heal and to use this doctor or whomever you know can best serve and help her.

Please make sure she does not become discouraged and give her the perseverance to keep pressing through. Comfort her and give her hope for that precious day she and so many others desire to see; a time when they too, can move forward with their lives in a way that continues to do your will, serve your kingdom; but with a stronger body and mind, free from these pathogens. It is our hope, too, Lord.

I pray for every person battling this disease, those who are part of our prayer family here and those that we know and do not know. Move your Spirit into their lives so that they can hold firm to a true, living faith.

In Your precious, Holy name, Amen!

Don't be afraid to be weak. Don't be too proud to be strong
Just look into your heart my friend

Enigma Return to Innocence
Ami chant

That's not the beginning of the end
That's the return to yourself
The return to innocence.
Love - devotion
Feeling - emotion
Love - devotion
Feeling - emotion

Don't be afraid to be weak
Don't be too proud to be strong
Just look into your heart my friend
That will be the return to yourself
The return to innocence

If you want, then start to laugh
If you must, then start to cry
Be yourself don't hide
Just believe in destiny

Don't care what people say
Just follow your own way
Don't give up and use the chance
To return to innocence

That's not the beginning of the end
That's the return to yourself
The return to innocence

Dont care what people say
Follow just your own way
Follow just your own way
Don't give up, don't give up
To return, to return to innocence.
If you want then laugh
If you must then cry
Be yourself don't hide
Just believe in destiny.

Melisa

Dear Lord

We bring before you Melisa and her struggle with Lyme Disease. We ask that her stomach will settle down so that she can take the meds she needs and that her body will accept IV’s when the time comes. Bring her strength to fight and beat this devastating disease.

In Your Name

Amen

Melisa's Biography

My Lyme friend Melisa and I have been friends for quite a while now. We have met in person a few times including watching in the theatre Under Our Skin. Sadly, we were in separate rooms to watch this documentary. I convinced Melisa to see my own LLMD and he's working her extremely hard to get well.

Melisa is a 20 year student from North Carolina. She goes to Appalachian State. She has unique challenges as a college student. Melisa is fighting Lyme, Brucella, Babesia and Bartonella. She believes she has had these things for 12 to 14 years.

Melisa (with one S) has many symptoms, but the things that give her the most struggles are terrible night migraines, being easily tired, memory problems and the loss of muscle control. Our LLMD is fond of lots of antibiotics and supplements so Melisa is on a lot of pills. These pills that kill everything that need to be killed make Melisa grossly nauseated. She is anxiously waiting the day she can eat sugar and unhealthy foods again as a normal college student can. They are considering IV treatment in the summer time.

Melisa not only wants prayers for her to feel better, but wants other Lymies to feel better too.
As far as Melisa is aware, none of her family members have contracted these tick borne illnesses.

Please pray for my dear friend.
