My grandmother Evelyn is in the hospital right now. She had a heart attack I believe yesterday. According to my mom she is in ICU. And one of my older brothers said when he visited ehr she did not look good at all. And it is also a bit worrysome that she is 86 years old. What is more worrysome is that she is not a believer. So I ask if you can help me pray for God to take care of her, no matter the outcome, and most importantly that God will send someone to her in the hospital who will share the love of Christ, so that she can have eternal life. I would love to pray for her to heal and go back to her home, but I do not know if it is God's will. But most importantly I just want her to know the love Christ has for her. (She is old and set in her ways so the more prayer the better). Thank you and may God bless you.

If she is a Christian then her reward is awaiting her in Heaven and you will see her again.

In Jesus name I pray, Amen
I prayed for your Grandmother, but I also want to give you this advise. Your Grandmother loves you very much and your the person who can touch her heart. Go tell her that you love her give her a kiss and hug, pray in her bed take your bible and read The Lord's Prayer in front of her. God is love! The love that you show her will touch her heart. God lives in our heart!

Honey, I just prayed that you and your family will be able to deal with the possible death of your grandmother. It's a hard thing to go through. I believe that your grandmother, when she dies, will go not only into the arms of Jesus, but also into the arms of the people she loved while they were still living here on Earth. She will be surrounded by love, no matter what her beliefs were here in this world. Take comfort in knowing that Jesus died for everyone, not just Christians, and he loves your grandmother dearly. My guess is that he already has his arms around her, and is comforting her even as I write this.

Pray for Jesus to place a convicting spirit in her heart. Always pray for God's will to be done no matter what is happening. Maybe you are the intended one to speak to her
about love and salvation. Ask and have faith. Prayers are always heard and are always answered according to God's will.

It really doesn't matter if your Grandma is a believer in Christ, in God, in ANYTHING ... I WILL pray for her 'according to God's will' (not what you want) ... and I KNOW that she'll go to Heaven ... and since you care about her so much, I think that she was 'good' enough to go 'straight' to Heaven with no time in 'Hell/Purgatory' to 'learn what she'll need to know' when she gets to that 'other universe' we call Heaven.
YOU need some prayer too, and I'll do it for you, too. I know that you 'mean well' but I also know that some of your ideas are 'way off' reality in relation to 'Christ' and what he meant for us 'humans' ... but right now you are in the 'pain' of your grandma being ill, so I'm not going to 'give you a lecture.' I wish I could give you a 'real human hug' and you could 'cry on my shoulder' ... because THAT is what you 'need most' right now.

I will be honored to pray for your grandmother. Please post an update to let us know how she is doing, spiritually and physically. If there is any way possible, I hope you'll be able to go talk to her about her salvation. But God knows all things and will know just who to send, and I believe He will-because He loves her and will give her every opportunity to receive Him. God bless you. ><>

Consider it done Abbey. I have said a prayer for your grandma, that someone will share with her the saving grace of Christ.
May God bless you.

I think that your reaction being to ask people to pray for your Grandma in this way shows that you have the kind of faith God is looking for and will honor your request for her salvation, but I will pray with you.

I will pray for her and add her to my church's prayer list. Just keep loving her and letting her know how Christ has made a difference in your life. Don't preach, show her Christ lives in you. My prayers are with you!!! :)

"For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast" (Eph. 2:8-9)
Dear Lord, I Iift up to You Abbey's grandmother. Father, you know the details of her situation. I ask that you would send someone to her bedside, Father, that would cause her to be born again, Lord. That she would know and believe that You sent Your only begotten Son to die for her and save her from her sins, be free of any thing that binds her, and that she may have eternal life with You, Lord.
By Your Grace, Father, and through faith, I claim this to be done. Thank You for the gift of Your salvation!
AMEN
