Prayer for John Edwards and Family

A few days ago I committed to praying for my family and friends. My Prayer and Praise are as follows:
I am feeling a little queasy right now with the media coverage of John Edwards and his affair. I know all to well what Elizabeth Edwards might be feeling. I ask we just pray for their entire family. Judgement has been extremely harsh on him and although I understand why, I can't help but feel compassion for both him and his family.
The Biblical Story of the woman caught in the act of adultery is fresh on my mind and I love what Jesus says when the accusers ask if she should be stoned for her sin:
Judgement comes really easy to us unless we are the accused. I ask everyone to pray for John Edwards and his family as they encounter, yet another, trial in their marriage.
All my family and friends in Texas withstood Tropical Storm Edourd with no property damage that I'm aware of.
Brian- Is handling his stress at work and seems to be encouraged with the hopeful outcome.
John Edwards and Family- Pray for healing, forgiveness, and strength as they endure this hardship together.
Brian- Please continue to pray for Brian as his work still demands much of him and the pressure continues to mount.
Me- Encouraging Brian and accepting his long hours all the while keeping our Faith strong.
JMBMommy- To simply surrender to the Lord
Lizzie- Improvement for husband's work situation and for God's Will to be shown to them.
Toni- Change of Job that points back home and a quick move to Florida that will bring peace to their hearts as they help their parents run the church.
Christina- Travel Mercies on vacation to Florida.
Breanne- Daughters EEG on was today and we're praying for good results and Strength for both Momma and Daughter.

Thank you so much, isn't it funny how complete strangers can be such a blessing? You are that to me!
Thanks for your comment on my blog, it is good to know that your hubby went through similar things....well not 'good' - but to know I am not alone in this! :) Its funny how he went through the same thing that I did, and also that both our husbands have work issues hey? I wonder how God will work things out for your family too, my prayers are with you.
You have an award on my blog :) I find you delightful!
What an excellent reminder in the midst of all the media frenzy. Thank you.
I wanted to pass along a situation that needs prayers; a mom blogger lost her precious baby girl (Violette) over the weekend. It's just tragic.
