URGENT PRAYER REQUEST!

Hello everyone!

I would please ask that anyone who prays to please join in prayer with me now.

I have a very dear friend Mark who is a medical mystery right now. The doctors have no idea what is wrong with him and it is a race against time.

Let me introduce you to Mark. He and I go back a several years we first met while working at a bible camp for summer and our friendship has grown since then. We are now attending the same Christian University and our friendship has been growing.
{mark, beth, myself}

Mark a 22 year old with a heart of gold. He is the type of guy who cares for everyone, he notices the people that others try not to notice. He has a warm heart and gentle spirit. Christ's love shines through him in unimaginable ways. He is the guy that everyone loves because that is the only thing you can do. He is one of the most amazing friends you could ask for.

Nearing the end of February Mark started feeling some pain in this stomach, he thought nothing of it because the flu was going around. As time went on his pain got worse, it was so bad that you could see it on his face. If you know Mark this is not good if you can tell he is in pain. So he went to the clinic and was told to monitor his pain. The next day he went back and told them he could not handle this any longer. So March 1 he was admitted into the hospital.
Since then all they have been able to figure out is that he has a lung infection and that his spleen and liver and inflamed and enlarged. Within the last two days his kidneys have started to fail as well as his lungs. There are three specialist working on his case and they are consulting other specialists. None of them are able to figure out what the cause of all this is.

So please join with me and pray for healing and comfort for Mark and his family. Pray for the doctors that are on his case and that they would be able to figure this thing out.

Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.
Matthew 17:20

Blessings,
Amber
