About SoCalVal
Welcome to my little corner of the beach in Southern California. I am married to one amazing man who loves me with a heart of Christ and who has blessed me to be a stay-at-home homeschool mom of three wonderful blessings. My heart is for homeschool ministry and helping others through encouragement. I've been homeschooling since the beginning and love it more and more every day.

"Satan's "best shot" against God and the people of God was the crucifixion of the God-man, Jesus Christ. And in that act, he unwittingly not only sealed his own doom, he opened the door for Jesus to offer redemption and salvation to the whole world. But that's not the end of the matter. Believe it or not, Satan can also accomplish God's purposes through the trials and afflictions that he throws our way. How? By helping us to cling to the Lord in dependence and prayer and, as a result, growing stronger spiritually."

Prayer Request Sunday
Welcome To This Weeks (February 24, 2008)
Prayer Request Sunday
"Yet those who hope in the Lord will gain new strength;
They will soar on wings like eagles,
They will run and not get tired, They will walk and not become weary."
Isaiah 40:31
New Requests:
Kristine - Her father is having heart surgery on Monday and he is not a Christian, so I am asking prayer concerning both
Londa - She is having a mastectomy on Tuesday. Her daughter and grandson are traveling to be with her. Please pray for traveling mercies.
Baby M - 2 year old baby girl who is fighting the flu this week. The flu has gone into her chest which makes it difficult for her to sleep. Please pray for healing and rest. Her mom is trying hard to comfort baby M and also needs rest.
Baby Ana - Ana is also fighting the flu. She is only a year old. Please pray for healing and a fast recovery.
Josh, Jen, Joy and Tillie - Tillie is a new born who is in very serious condition in the hospital. Tillie was born after 3 days of labor that ended in a C-section, and she swallowed meconium which went into her lungs and bloodstream. She has been on a blood cleansing machine, and now the doctors are unsure of her brain and liver function. They were to do 2 tests today to check her responsiveness. Joy specifically asked for prayer for their family to rest in Christ alone – that He will be their strength when they all feel so weak.
Karen -Please pray for her health. This has been a terrible month for sickness in her family, and while she has recovered from her sinus infection, she has been coughing non-stop for the last 3 days. Karen figures it’s probably bronchitis, and mostly needs rest. But that’s going to be hard this week because her husband is preparing for a huge presentation at work next week, and he has to travel for a couple of days this week.
(3 Nameless Bloggers) - These ladies have endured such a hard week in blogland. They have had some comments placed on their blogs that have caused hurt feelings - along with minor threats made against them. Please pray for their protection and the courage to keep moving forward. Also, pray that these other bloggers who are causing the problems to stop and turn towards Christ to be forgiven.
