this really is the dumbest prayer request but am asking anyway.

My godsons are being baptized on Sunday. I have two large scabs on either sides of my nose.

I feel very ugly and don't want my emotions to take away from this joyous occasion. This is just not how I want to look for photos.

I really am not a vain person...promise.

Praying all the time for the intentions posted here.

God bless,

Mb

Marybeth, I completely understand!! I spent my son's Baptism with a huge bandaid on my nose after surgery. I felt just like you said - ugly but trying very hard not to be vain!

Praying for complete and rapid healing for you. But if that is not God's will for you, a big, sincere smile on your face and a twinkle in your eye goes a long way.

Praying Marybeth! I can feel for you.
Have any calendula balm? That might help.

Vitamin B helps heal a bit faster. You can get topical creams from a healthfood store. I've also had great results from drinking KyoGreen in my OJ. May not be fast enough for Sunday, but it's good for future reference.

God bless your godsons on their special day!

Blessings,
