You, Lord, are near to all who call upon you,
to all who call upon you in truth.
Mark 11: 24
Therefore I tell you, all that you ask for in prayer,
believe that you will receive it and it shall be yours.
1 Thessalonians 5: 17-18
Pray without ceasing. In all circumstances give thanks,
for this is the will of God for you in Christ Jesus.
and kindle in them the fire of Your love.
Send forth Your Spirit and they shall be created,
and You will renew the face of the earth.
Lord, by the light of the Holy Spirit,
You have taught the hearts of Your faithful.
In the same Spirit, help us to relish
what is right and always rejoice in Your consolation.
We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.

please, please pray for the salvation of my precious husband Lyle who has graciously allowed me to raise our children as Christians but claims himself to have no belief in God. I am so burdened for him as I feel the Lord is coming soon. God bless you. Pray for him and my dear husband and I will thank you in heaven.My adopted son has run away from home, following several criminal and nearcriminal activities, and a diagnosis of "border line personality disorder"(your old fashion psychopath). He doesn't seem to care about anything oranybody. He is costing us a lot of money and now the child protectiveservices are going to ask us to give even more money towards a placement(money we don't have). This is a last of a whole series of mishaps. I feellike my family has literally been through five years of hell: my daughterdied, two nephews died, my mother died, several friends died, I had breastcancer, my father in law had a heart attact and quadruple bypass surgery, myson was beaten up and raped by older teenagers, our car was stolen, ourhouse was robbed, and I could continue this list for a long time. We arebroke, in part because of all the things we've been through, in part becauseour adopted son has done extensive damage to property and has been robbingus. We really have neither the money to pay to the child protectiveservices for help for our son (provided he is ever located) or to pay for alawyer to fight being asked to pay, and we will have our wages garnished ifthe court approves our paying. We are quite literally at wits' end rightnow. Something needs to change. I don't think either my husband or I cantake much more.Pray for my boyfriend to feel the presentsof the truth of the Lord.He is to go to courton the 6th of May.That he is inocsent of.Dear God, I have not always been a good daughter. I always manage to run away from you. I need you so much now, again. Please hear me. If my request needs a miracle, then I am asking for one. I know I don't deserve it but please don't look at my sins O Lord but on my faith that ONLY YOU can make everything better. Grant too that I may not so much seek to be loved as to love with all my heart...melt the hearts of those who do not love O Lord.Thank you. I love you Lord.Mother Mary be my guide. Be here always by my side. Take me through this world of sorrow. Show me there's a bright tomorrow.
I know this is dumb, but I hope that God takes my life and gets me out of this world.My wife and I have been ill, she has had 28 operations on her intestines, and now to top it all off I have had to havemy heart worked on. We have been off work, and yesterday the sheriff broght a forclosureon our home. We are going to lose everything. I have asked God to take me out of here. I wish that I would havejust died in the hospital, it would have been mucheasier. I just wish my heart would stop and end this misery...I know that I amweak. I have let everyone down. I already know this.If you have time, please pray for us. Thanks. Craig.I pray that a man in town will leave me alone. He keeps coming by where I work and calling me. I tell him not to call me and not to come by work, but he keeps doing it. He says he won't do it but he does. He is not mentally right. I am afraid of him now. Also, a member of his family is saying really bad things about me which is going to hurt me at work and in town. I pray that he will stop calling me and stop coming by and that him and his family would stop talking about me. People say I asked for this because I was nice to him and used to say hello all the time to him, but I need help now to get him to leave me alone. I need guidance and intervention please. S-My Dad just had a massive heart attack today at 5:15pm. He had to be revived 3 times but his heart has stablized and is beating on its own.He is comatose and they are suspecting possible brain damage.Please keep him and my mother in your prayers.I also would like to pray that I will be able to see and speak to him before he dies.Thank you and God bless.LaurieMy husband and I have invested a substantial amount of our life savings in a flat that is supposed to be our home after we retire. Unfortunately there is a dispute between the person we have signed the contract with and the person who is financiing the project. This means that we have the problem as long they two do not agree. Please pray for this problem to be solved and for us to either get our apartment or get our investment back. Thank you.Please pray for my sons, so that our youngest will find peace of mind, heart and soul, and some joy in his life, and believe that Our Lord is his Saviour, and is there for him. Our oldest will be moving out and for him to trust that, no matter what, Jesus in on his side and will always be there for him.. Also, please pray for our family and all our spiritual needs. thank You.   Want to join the |
