Prayer for Isra

Hello friends, I am asking for your thoughts and prayers for a friend of mine named Isra.

Isra was struck by a car while riding his bike on Monday and is in severely injured - I'll post the official article here.

Isra is currently unconscious. They are keeping his body at a lower than normal temperature to help keep his brain from swelling. He also has chemicals in his body to keep him numb. The major area of concern is swelling in his brain. They will keep him cool for at least 24-36 hours, more likely 72. They won’t know if he needs brain surgery or not until then.

Isra is a friend of mine from Navs and is such a joyful, unique, and obedient follower of the Lord. He spent an entire evening this summer teaching Ben and I how to swing dance and is always willing to do whatever he can for his friends.

There are hundreds of people praying for him all over the globe (there is a facebook group with updates on his condition and the state of his parents who are flying in from Thailand), but he can use all of the prayer he can get!

Thank you.
