So the month of August was a very rough month for me. I though it would get better for me in September, but I still feel very upset. I am 14 years old and a follower of God. I am doing a Bible club and I need prayer for the club to go well. I am ready to shut it down. I really need Gods help. I pray for my sister as she works hard to support me and she is a follower of God as well. She works hard and doesn't get much time off. I pray that God lays hands on her.
I would like to please ask for help in prayer for my heart. There have been many things this year that have deeply hurt me and tested my faith in Jesus. I am glad to have found a home in Iglesia de Dios Peniel (Church of God) in Bentonville Ar and I hope to continue to grow in God even with all these things thrown at me.
My son, Sam, has been in jail for over a year for something he did while on drugs. The Salvation Army has agreed to accept him into their program for rehab. The lawyer says it will probably only happen if the victim will agree to it. We are praying that the Lord will soften the victim's heart and accept this.
My friend and office mailman for the last 15 years is in Mercy fighting for his life. He was sick with COVID and then his oxygen levels dropped so low that he passed out and had to go by ambulance to Mercy where they started him on oxygen and meds to try to help him. He had developed pneumonia due to the virus.. On Friday he started improving some; they were able to lower his O2 some. But then in the early morning on Saturday, they think he had a stroke. It caused bleeding in the part of the brain that controls memory, speech, understanding. The surgery they need to do is very dangerous and due to the condition of his lungs, they held off. Now he also has a clot in his brain. The only option was to start high powered blood thinners. If it causes the other bleed to grow, there won't be much they can do. I cannot accept this! He is strong. He has no prior health issues. I ask that you please join me in praying for him. For the Lord to heal his body, to bring him back to us. He has a family that loves him and needs him. As well as many friends that have become like family over the years. Please continue to pray for the front line workers.. This is all they are dealing with on a daily basis.
Thank you in advance for the prayers!
Opposition has come from every angle. My thoughts are constantly tormented with opposition. When I begin to think a positive thought then negative thoughts will interrupt it before I can finish completing that thought. I often find that the opposition's objective to my positive thinking is "what if? ", or that's good but there's always some way you can be better. This is an oppression in every area of my life and I want to trust God. I'm tired of relying on people to say I am good. I want to be good because God sees me good and that he will complete every good work he has begun in my life. Thank you for increasing my faith with the prayer request!
