Hope, my 10 year old daughter has a cat...his name is Smokey...and over the last several months he has gotten into several cat fights outdoors and has needed to go see the vet...and it has caused a significant dent in our checking account. well last week we could not find him because he had been in another incident and was hiding to lick his wounds. immediately I said no to another trip to the vet. Hope has continued to ask....and I continued to try and ignore the situation.
Then yesterday when I was checking my email there was one from Hope....
It read something like this....
Daddy...I really don't want my best friend Smokey to die...so please reconsider taking him to the vet...I'll give up my allowance...whatever I need to do....but please Daddy, please please please Daddy....will you do it?
if you are looking for an answer, for a miracle....I think in James it says pray again!

For those checking the blog....Smokie was doomed with a bad report. The Dr. gave us a few days to think over whether we wanted to spend more $ on him than we will probably spend on one of the kids this year....in the mean time he is on antibodics. And the LORD has done the miraclous and really healed the poor little thing! All the kids (including Luke) have been praying for him and caring for him. He is getting quite spoiled! Yesterday Hope went to get him from under my bed and he was laying right in the middle as though he owned the thing!
So my thought on all this is when we are pleading with our heavenly Father...perhaps He wants us to take a few steps (the 1st being praying and believing) and He will follow through with the completion.
Thanks Lee for answering Hope's pleas!
