Prayer Request for Jessica
Posted on 08. Sep, 2009 by Theresa in From Merle & Theresa
“Dear fans and friends, Merle and I have a friend”
“…a very special friend. Her name is Jessica Easley. She is 10 years old. Jessica has terminal bone cancer. She recently had her leg amputated. Her doctors have sent her home because they say there is no more that they can do . They have given her 2 to 3 weeks to live. SHE NEED ALL OF OUR PRAYERS OF HEALING! “THAT IF IT BE GOD’S WILL” JESSICA CAN BE HEALED COMPLETELY and go on to live her life fully and healthy like she was meant to.
So I post this letter in total faith that together we can ask Jesus to touch Jessica Easley and make her whole again. We ask of this healing in Jesus name.”
Sincerely,
Theresa Haggard
“By my stripes you are healed”Isaiah 53:5 “

Jessica,
What a wonderful person you must be, and so strong to endure the struggle you go through. You have touched the life of many people and you have a special place in our hearts. You must know that God is with you in all your trials so don’t give up and keep praying with the rest of us that God will spare you to inspire many, many more. God gave you a purpose in life and it is by his will you will live forever. You will be in our prayers. Lot’s of love and hang in there.

We are praying for Jessica. thank you for doing this for her. I have been following her story and praying for her for a while now and we will not give up!
Sept. is Natl Childhood Cancer Awareness month. The beast we call cancer is taking way too many of our children and they need HOPE, they need a CURE, their families need HOPE! Please go to CURESEARCH.org and support our children in any way that you can. My daughter was taken from this earth too soon. I know the pain these families go thru, I want it to STOP doing this to other families. “It Could Be Your Child”, is another website that is trying to help raise awareness. CHILDREN are our FUTURE, we need to give these children a future, we need to let them be KIDS, we need to help them make all their dreams come true, let their parents see them graduate, get married and have children of their own. We need EVERYONE to help us, help the children. I am walking 10 miles on Sat. for my daughter who would have been 14 on that day, sadly she went to be with Jesus, just one day after her 8th birthday. the pain does not end for us, it goes on. Esp. when we see children like Jessica and so many others, still fighting this fight. We need to give them back their LIVES and give their families back their lives. My goal is to raise $1000 for Curesearch and $1000 for Love Without Boundaries, which Marissa knew about and LOVED with all her heart, as they help sick children in China that have no families to love them during their treatments etc. Some of them are waiting for the FUNDS to even have life saving surgeries to even have a chance at life, a chance of being adopted into a loving family, just as Jesus Christ has adopted all of us. PLEASE, PLEASE pray for all of these children. Jessica is a beautiful and vibrant young lady, who should be loving life, playing with her friends, doing homework, not suffering in pain along with her family, not knowing if God will heal her here, or in heaven. PLEASE do not stop praying for all of these children, please wear GOLD the rest of this month and show your support for these BRAVE WARRIORS still fighting this fight. We take WAY too much for granted until something like this hits us right in the face. It happened to our daughter and to us, it is happening to Jessica and so many other precious children right now. They need all our support and for us to all come together to make a difference in the live of a child. A Precious child. give them their lives back. Give them HOPE they can hold onto. No parents should be told that there is nothing more they can do, to take them home and watch them die….. No parents should have to hear those words about their CHILD, who is just starting their lives. We expect this when someone gets old, but NOTHING can prepare you to hear those words about your child.
Go to Jessica’s site and lift her entire family in prayer. Go to our daughter’s site to read her story: http://www.caringbridge.org/ks/marissa Help me walk for the KIDS still fighting on Marissa’s birthday on SAT. donate to Cureearch and LWB in her honor and for Jessica! Wear Purple and Gold on Sat.
Blessings, Kim forever mom to angel Marissa Faith Miao Burghart

FAVORITE QUOTES: Let my heart be broken with the things that break the heart of God. –Bob Pierce I will add: Let it be broken enough to WANT to MAKE A DIFFERENCE, to do SOMETHING to bring gladness to GOD and to someone other than myself.
We can do no great things, only small things with great love. –Mother Theresa—- If we all do something small, together, we can make a GREAT difference. Matthew 18:20 18:20 Where two or three are gathered together in my name – That is, to worship me. I am in the midst of them – By my Spirit, to quicken their prayers, guide their counsels, and answer their petitions.
My Dad also has cancer and only has days to live here on earth. He has multiple myeloma and was dx just 9 months after we lost our precious daughter. We need to STOP cancer it it’s tracks……

My prayers and thoughts go out not only to Jessica, who has surely proven herself to be strong beyond her years, but also to the all her family and loved ones. May you stay strong with the love of your family and the Lord. Remember that throughout times of struggle, the Lord walks besides us and guides us home. I pray that the power of his love carries you through this journey.
Mathew 11: 28-30
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”

Dearest Jessica,
I believe that God places everyone of us on this Earth for a reason. You have touched so many lives, and so many people are praying for you. I don’t think God is ready to call you home yet. You have a mission to do great things. I pray that He will grant you the strength to heal and Praise His name.
My heart goes out to you and to your family. As a cancer patient myself , I know your struggle, and Pray to our Lord to pasce his healing hands on you.
God Bless you little one.

I am going through some tough times righ now myseld but my troubles are very small in light of this kids problems. I pray to God to give her peace and hope for brighter days.

Frank Haggard
19. Sep, 2009
My prayers are with Jessie and her family. Jessie is suffering from the attack on her body, but her family is suffering by having to watch what is happening to her and to be told there is nothing more to do. If the doctors would learn to trust more in Jesus than in their own knowledge things could happen. My prayer is that Jessie will stand on Phillipians 4:13, and that is ” I can do all things through Christ that strengthens me”, and it will be his power that will heal her.

Theresa & Merle,
We, too, are claiming the promise, “By His stripes we are and were healed, in Jesus’ Holy name! Amen!” Our Jesus is the Holy Risen King and we serve a God of the unpossiblities. For with Him, there is not a thing that is unpossible!
We will be praying for Jessica in church (MaChis Lower Indian Tribe of Alabama), too.
Thank you, Theresa, for letting us know of the need!

Dear Jessica,
My father had bone cancer, too, and his doctor told him he had only six months to live. Well, 10 years later, my Dad was still alive and confounding the doctor.
I believe that God rewarded my father’s deep faith in Him and sent my dad an angel to watch over him.
May God send you an angel, too, sweetheart.

When you come to the edge of the light, and are about to step out into the darkness – - Faith is knowing that one of two things will happen:
Either, there will be something solid on which to stand…………..or you will be taught to fly!
I held onto that belief for the 17 years of chemo and operations…………I hope it brings Jess some peace too!
2 Timothy 4.7 ” I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.”
God’s blessings on Jess and on her family. Jess, you are in God’s Hands, and He has wonderful plans for you! We will all keep praying for you!

I have read all the comments, You know my Mama use to say Pray is God’s gift to man. He can keep them to himself or share them with others in need.
I along with you will share my Prayers that this Little ANGEL of God may be save by the grace of Prayers to JESUS. Imagine If we got togerther in Prayer For the good of mankind, how it would Please THE LORD. Putting others before ourselves would indeed BRIGHTEN THE LORD”S HEART.
LITTLE JESSICA I”LL PRAY FOR YOU WITH ALL HEART EVERYDAY AND FOR YOUR FAMILY TOO. BRIEF HAVE FAITH LOVE JESUS AS HE LOVES YOU. MR. AND MRS. HAGGARD THANK YOU MAY GOD KEEP SAFE IN HIS ARMS. NOT ONLY DO I LOVE YOUR MUSIC I LOVE THAT YOUR

Dear Jessica
I herd about you for the first time yesterday from the Merle Haggard website and have read all of your testimonies and have been so touched
by them. My deepest prayer is that God will miraculously heel as I know only he can and that through it you can grow up to be a mighty testimony
for his glory. I am so touched by you that I have been checking three or four times a day to see how you are doing. I to am a Merle Haggard fan
as I grew up singing Merle Haggard song when I was in high school. I now have started to singing Christian Country Music and have rewrote
a lot of the Merle Haggard songs that I use to sing and changed the words to Christian Lyrics and I now sing them in Churches. One of the
song that I rewrote is to the tune of Okie From Muskogee and I rewrote it to I’m Proud To Be A Bible Totin Christian. Since learning about your
illness through the Merle Haggard website and have been keeping up with you I have decided that I want to dedicate this song to you and hope
and pray that I will be able to sing it to you some day since we are both great Merle Haggard fans.
Oh Lord I just want to right now lift up Jessica Easley in prayer from the bottom of my heart and ask you to heal her from head to toe and cure her
from this dreadful disease. And Lord Jesus let her become a powerful testimony of your healing power and through it many may be brought to
know you. Lord Jesus as I have read her testimony she has even in and through this illness been a testimony as she has told others about you
and your Saving Grace. I pray right now in Jesus name for her healing so she can continue to be a witnesss for you. In Jesus
precious name I pray these things. AMEN.
Jessica I hope that through your healing we may some day be able to be at a churh together and tell of the saving grace of Jesus Christ. You
have been such an inspiration to me with the way you have been a witness for Christ even with this illness that you have been going through.
Thank You and God Bless You

Dear sweet Jessica,
You look like a very strong girl.Let me tell ya a little story. About 29 years ago a young man was told he had terminal cancer and had about 6 months left to live. So he decided that the doctors were wrong. He sat down and had a long stern talk with god. He told god that he had alot of things to do here on earth yet and that he had a young son and a beautiful wife. He also told him that he was not going to go anywhere. He didn’t pray to stay here, he just told god he wasn’t going anywhere. About 2 weeks later he was called into the doctors office. The doctor couldn’t understand it but he went into remission. You see this young man had terminal Lymphnatic cancer and all of a at once it seemed like it was going away.They couldn’rt understand how this was happening, but the lord and the young man did because they had made alittle deal. The lord raided his Titer count in his blood to a unbeiliveable level. Normals peoples is around 80 but the young man’s was over 690. It’s was a miracle.And to this day I’m thankful everyday I open my eyes. It’s been 29 years and I’m still going strong. Have faith in yourself and NEVER give up. I believe with the help of god and the power of living can cure anything. This is a true story because I live it everyday.May god listen to you, and with all my love little one, I wish you Health.

My the Lord almighty and the Savior Jesus reach down from heaven and touch you Jessica as he did the blind man and heal your illness and make you well. Jessica as Merle sings in his song to his children for them to go to sleep, think about a butterfly, think about a lollaby think about stars in the sky and this will take your mind off of your illness. I will continue to send prayers your way and your family to keep your strength and faith. Love to you and your family.

I do not use the word hope in my vocabulary, it will always be stated as faith. You may not be healed by medicine or doctors and you have probably got the best of care. We pray for your health and existence, I pray you can grow older like I have, that is why I can say these words, all in the universe is based on our faith. Remember, You have a friend in Jesus, For God so loved the world, The Creator of all is the Universe. Look beyond this earth with faith. God the Creator, Christ the Saviour .

My name is Linda. I’m believing in God for your healing. My son, who is a lot older than you was diagnosed with cancer. The age doesn’t mean anything in God’s time. I called everyone I knew and ask them to pray for my son. God answered our prayers. At that exact time my grandson’s best friend’s cousin was also diagnosed with cancer he was 2 yrs old. Both of them are doing great now. Don’t ever let that old devil take your belief in healing. away . I am going to call all those people that I called when my son was diagnosed and get everyone from here to California to start a prayer chain. You keep up your strenghth and believe in God’s will be done in your life. You and my grandson Cory have exactly the same artist you love. Bless you tonight, Rest knowing we are all praying for you .Blessings to your family. Linda in Florida

Gracious Lord, as we look at Jessica’s picture on this website, we see Your love, Your wisdom, and Your peace reflected in Jessica’s beautiful smile, Lord. Truly, she is one of Your’s, Jesus. Lord, we reach out to touch the hem of Your garment on Jessica’s behalf, seeking Your healing touch for her body, while remembering Your words in Matthew 9:5-7 regarding Your greatest and most important powers of healing for those who seek You. We thank You, Lord, for Jessica Easley and her family; for their heroic example of courage, and fight, and perseverance, and for their steadfast example of faith and hope. We know that You love Jessica, Lord, and we are thankful that she is in Your care. In Your perfect timing Lord, may Jessica, in essence, hear You whisper to her, “Jessica, you are healed. Get up, take your mat and go home.” We ask for healing in Your holy name, Lord. Amen

Jessica’s strength is amazing. Maybe Mr Haggard could record a song about childhood cancer? If anyone could do that and use it to make a difference it would be The Hag!!!
Praying that Jessica finds strength and comfort in His arms.

Hello Jessica, My mom told me about your situation, and she has left a comment on here for you. Her name is Janet Madison. My husband and I are praying for you and your family that you can have a happy life and be able to do all the things you want to do. Keep your head up and when you get depressed or sad, just think of how many people out here that are thinking about you. God knows what will be and he is there with you and your family every minute of every day. We will continue to have you and your family in our thoughts and prayers. : )

Dear Jessica,
I was told that I was terminal some years ago, 59 years to be exact. Many were on their knee praying in my behalf. We will fight this battle with you in our prayers dear one.
May god shine his healing light on you now and forever.

I heard Merle say that someday we’ll forever watch the mysteries of heaven unfold. Maybe now we don’t understand the reason why things like this happen, but someday we will. My best guess is that they are , too good for this world, so God takes them straight home. The faith of a mustard seed can move a mountain. “Father, give Jessica and her family and friends strength to overcome their trials. Let them all feel your presence. Be with them and comfort them. Life is fragile here, but your kingdom stands forever. In the name of Jesus Christ, amen.”

Jessica,
I know you are on your way home now. I have heard your parents release you to God over these last few days. Being a Mom myself, I can’t imagine how hard that was for them to do. But to see you lying there, so lifeless and still…..thank God we have the promise of a better place, the one you have described so beautifully to us where you will have 2 legs once more and will suffer no more.
Goodnite my sweet sweet Jessica.
You have changed more lives than you will ever know
With all my love
