Prayer and Miracles

     I was too slow to make a blog post to announce this, but tons of people around the country were praying for Sister McKee, my mission president's wife, today at 12:00 PM (CST). Now you may be wondering why all these prayers for just one person. This is why! Sister McKee is a very loved woman by her family, friends, mission children and many, many others. She is loved by so many due to all of the love and support she shows to EVERYONE she meets. She truly is a great woman! Ok so now to the reason we were praying. This is from my mission president: 

Dear friends and family,

     We thank you all again for faith, fasting, and prayer. Sister McKee continues to be in a self induced coma. We are all gathering on Thursday at 11AM Mountain Standard Time to kneel in prayer on her behalf. We know the Lord can produce miracles, and pray daily that His miracle will be for her to return to our family. At the same time, we have faith in Him, and trust Him, and will pray for (Thy will to be done) as we know that He knows what is best for all of us, eternally. We have strong faith in Him and testify of Jesus Christ and His atonement. The atonement blesses our lives daily as we use it to heal pain, suffering, and sorrow, and all kinds of affliction. We invite any who are willing to gather in prayer with us on Thursday, and thank you again for your loving support for the McKee family.


With love,
The William McKee Family


     She has had heart related problems for a while now and they have been really bad for over a week now. She has had quite a few tests done and a great deal of surgeries performed on her last week, which have all been successful to my understanding, and we are now in a sit and wait period because she has been in a self induced coma for a few days now. This is why we want your prayers!

     This woman truly is wonderful and just because it is after the set time to kneel in prayer for her, it does not mean it is to late to start praying for her. I love her a lot and it would mean quite a bit if you joined with us in prayer for her. God is still a God of Miracles. "And now, O all ye that have imagined up unto yourselves a god who can do no miracles, I would ask of you, have all these things passed, of which I have spoken? Has the end come yet? Behold I say unto you, Nay; and God has not ceased to be a God of miracles." (Mormon 9:15.)

     Expect a miracle! Have faith! "For if there be no faith among the children of men God can do no miracle among them; wherefore, he showed not himself until after their faith." (Ether 12:12.)
