This past year I moved out on my own. I was hit with one thing after another, yet I have always kept my hope in God knowing He will guide me through the raging waters. My prayer request is for something to change so that I can be able to support myself with enough to save for future goals and dreams. One day I’d like to adopt and/or foster but I want to give that child everything I can. God knows what I am saying.
Pray my daughter and son-law become financially independent. They live with us with 2 granddaughters. My husband has terminal kidney cancer and heart failure. Our finances has been really hard. Pray for my strength, it is hard for me some days. I am trying to take care of my husband of 48 years.
Six months ago I entered into a new relationship after a draining divorce. This man is the man God created for me. However, we both have trauma from past marriages as well as our children. We are requesting prayers for Gods guidance, healing, and favor in our relationship and future marriage as well as with the relationships with our co parents and children.
I am in the ninth grade and I have a friend who is really lost, and broken. I try to be there for him but I dont know how to. He hurts himself to deal with his pain and it hurts me watching him suffer. I am not quite sure what exactly he is going on, but I want people to pray for him to get to know Lord. Also, pray for me to help lead him to Christ and know that he does not have to be alone.
I humbly ask for prayer over my whole family. It’s been a tough year & I feel as though my children are paying an emotional price. This wilderness season is hard for me as an adult and as a child I know it can feel like uncertainty. The Goliath in our lives can take many forms, but I ask that God wraps His arms around them and anyone else going through a storm. I know the breaking of us will be the making of us and so many more because God is in control.
In September I made a rededication of my life to the Lord and I have been able to lay more of my life down to Jesus and give Him more control. However, I am still mentally fighting a lot and even by myself, I believe I am under attack because I am reaching out to Jesus for help and Satan doesn't want that to happen because I am realizing my personal worth because I am seeing more of the joy in the world that God has provided. My heart is more open and loving and slowly learning more and more about the Word as I read. I believe that I have been afflicted with painful headaches, restless sleep, anxiousness, and I think I am seizing in my sleep. I developed epilepsy and God used it to get me out of the Army before it's recent politicization and wokeness. Though, I would like the anxiety, headaches, and seizures to go away for good because I serve the God of impossible possibilities so I ask that people see this and be encouraged and pray for me to be healed like the convulsing boy in Matthew 17. Also, I am personally healing after experiencing psychological and mental abuse by my father and stepmom. I want to be able to forgive fully and move on and learn to honor him still even though it hurts. I want to see Jesus even in times of desperation and know that He is with me in the moment even though I have read Scripture but the moment paralyzes my spirit and I want want to be a Thomas rather than Job. I want to follow Jesus blindly now and just go where He goes and defend Him vigorously and with love and grace for those around me. I do not want to desire anything except His presence and to fully fill me everyday because I realize now that I have a true desire to love others but I need to be made whole first and equipped and then be made ready to go into the world to preach the gospel, bridge the gap, and be an example so they can see Jesus in me. Please pray for me in these things.
My husband went to be with the Lord on June 19th. Our 34th wedding anniversary will be Saturday (10/14).
I need strength to make it through the days ahead. I want to do something on Saturday to honor him, but I have not thought of what I can do yet. Could you pray that God will show me how I can honor my husband, even though he is not here. I want to live life and not just survive.
