Lord, it is so good to hear good news! In fact, this
feeling caused by heartwarming stories should remind us to share the ultimate
Good News with others. However, at this moment, we thank you for the good deed
done this summer in Ritzville, Washington,
USA. We affirm Larry Yockey’s neighbors, who banded together to bring in Yockey’s
harvest when Yockey’s stage 4 cancer prevented him from doing so. We celebrate
the local fire department and mechanics who volunteered their time, and the
other community members who brought food and drinks for the workers.
What a beautiful picture of community and of your provision—when a harvest that
would normally take three weeks takes only eight hours! Heavenly Father, please
bless those who served in this way. May they also receive generosity and
kindness when their needs overwhelm them. And may the spirit of goodwill
continue in Ritzville. Lord, we also pray for Yockey as he fights the cancer.
Give him strength, courage, encouragement and wisdom as he moves forward in this
battle. Grant him timely access to excellent medical care, and give his doctors
keen insight as they seek the best forms of treatment for Yockey. In Jesus’
name we pray, amen.
