Thinking of you, Watch and listen carefully! The man whispered, "God, speak to me" and a meadowlark sang. But, the man did not hear. So the man yelled "God, speak to me!" And, the thunder rolled across the sky. But, the man did not listen. The man looked around and said, "God let me see you." And a star shined brightly. But the man did not notice. And, the man shouted, "God show me a miracle!" And, a life was born. But, the man did not know. So, the man cried out in despair, "Touch me God, and Let me know you are here!" Whereupon, God reached down and touched the man. But, the man brushed the butterfly away and walked on. > > Don't miss out on a blessing because it isn't packaged the way that you expect. > > This prayer is powerful and there is nothing attached. Prayer is one of the best gifts we receive. There is no cost but a lot of rewards. Let's continue to pray for one another. God bless and have a nice day! "Father, I ask you to bless my friends, relatives and email buddies reading this right now. Show them a new revelation of your love and power. Please minister to their spirit at this very moment. Where there is pain, give them your peace and mercy. Where there is self-doubt, release a renewed confidence through your grace, In Jesus precious Name." > > Amen > > If you are so inclined, please send this to people who could use an extra dose of God's blessings today (isn't that everyone we know)!

I don't want to minimize the importance of Bud's prayer request or the sincerity of people's replies. I do believe that such situations and support are very real! However, the expressions of support and appreciation are personal. Could we please limit them to private correspondence rather than posts to the entire list? Thanks. Ruth Ann

Judy. Thanks for the prayers and kind words. We will be fine. After all, we have been blessed many times over in spite of the sickness and deaths. Bud

Hello and Good Wishes to All. I received my first Craig Digest and noticed an error in the email address it should read Mary Ellen (Craig) Krieg DMEK99@aol.com If the name likeness seems confusing all the more so when doing genealogy. My husband is of German decent and is a Krieg (pronounced with a long e). I was a Craig (pronounced with a long a). Try explaining this to children and grandchildren when talking about grandparents!

Hello Everyone, I thought it might be time to put my information out there again. So here it goes. I am looking for information regarding Albert G. Craig. He was born ( I think) in 1855 and in Pennsylvania somewhere. I have my ggrandfathers birth certificate and it says that his fathers age was 45 at the time of his birth and that was in 1900. He had at least one known son by the name of Ira Edward Craig born in 1900 In Summerfield Kansas. Ira had 12 kids with wife Mercedes Leona Collier . All were born in Lincoln Nebraska. Bernard Eugene Craig is one of those 12 and my grandfather. He was born January 22, 1924. My father is one of Bernard¹s children. His name is William Lee Craig and he was born November 10, 1945 in Berkeley California. If anyone has any information at all, please contact me. I would be so grateful! Thank you Sherri -- The best way to know God is to love many things. --Vincent Van Gogh

Bonnie. Thanks so much. Prayers are so comforting. Bud

Margaret. Thanks for the prayers. They are so comforting. And there just might be a drop of blood in the relationship what with all the Craigs and all. Thanks again. Bud

Sharon. Thanks for sharing your miracle. That should be proof enough that prayer does work. Bud

Dear Bud, I'm sorry to be late in responding to your request for prayer. We just returned from a visit with relatives in IA. I certainly will keep you and yours in my prayers. Even if we may not be related by blood we are all part of GODSs family.

I am researching the name CRAIG in the state of Indiana. In particular William CRAIG s/o Samuel CRAIG and Delila HAYES. He was most likely born in Richland Co OH where he also I believe he was married to Sarah BENNETT. I have information only on one brother who was in the civil war with the IN 44th. His brothers name was Joseph. William also served in the war as part of Co. K, 53rd Ind., V. I., 4th Brig,. 17th Div., 4th A.C. William's was the father of George Washington CRAIG. George was the father of Ora CRAIG my grandfather. If any one can add further to my CRAIG Linage I would greatly appreciate it. Mary Ellen (Craig) Krieg DMEK@aol.com

Dear Craig Cousins, My family received a miracle because of prayer. My brother sadly informed me that our dear brother-in-law was sat down by a team of doctors in Denver and told that he was testing positive in their battery of tests for colon cancer. Our father died of colon cancer in 1998 so we knew what could happen. I told my pastor and we prayed together with a very long prayer. My heart was in prayer for days and days. Two weeks later, Carl went for further tests and surgery treatment. The same team of doctors sat him down and told him they no longer saw any evidence of colon cancer or any other! He spent several weeks in anguish and has been changed by it all. Changed, Sharon
