God has blessed our finances and I want to shout out a big praise. Thank you Lord for providing for us! Also, guess what? I got flowers today from my youngest son (for Mother's Day). They are gorgeous and the vase is beautiful too. I'm so proud of my son Jim! He is a wonderful Christian man, a savy business owner, a terrific father, and a loving husband. I am thankful for Jim. Please pray for him to be blessed. Also, Jim's wife Breanne has been dieting and has lost 30 lbs. so far which is amazing. Please pray for her to lose the rest. She is a busy mom with 3 kids age 9 and under. We are amazed at her patience, stamina, and admire how sweet she is. Breanne is always smiling, has many friends and everyone loves her to pieces. We are so proud of her, and want to encourage her, so today my husband and I took her a gift (a necklace), a card, some salmon, and a diet soda. Thanks for praying. God Bless you!

Please pray for my Dad's healing. Tests tomorrow claiming healing "By HIS Stripes DAD is HEALED"

God Bless!

I have requested prayer several times for Dave, who has had multiple setbacks from cancer surgery last November. On 5/15/13 it will be 6 months in the hospital. He was doing very well Tuesday, and was expected to be moved to Riverview, yesterday. Plans were changed with him to be going there tomorrow (Friday), but now he has had a serious life threatening setback, that has put him back into I.C.U. We are hoping that God's plan is to heal him, that he may finally be with his wife and family. Please pray for healing once again, and for assurance and comfort for his wife, whose faith and praising of our Lord has never wavered throughout this battle. Thank you so very, very much. "Be still and know that I am God."

Please pray that it's in God's will for me to quit smoking cigarettes today, and keep the temptations away while I go on a missions trip this Saturday!

I'm going through a difficult time. Furthering my education, which involves an externship that is not going well. Only have 4 wks left; If I don't complete, I won't graduate with my class. However, circumstances at the site make it diffcult for me to want to continue my commitment. Need prayers on how to proceed; stressing over money spent (student loans) on this education, stressing over the job site; stressing over trying to find another site at this late date, stressing over what seems to be lack of support of my "support system", stressing over trying to find a job in this field of study. I want to graduate, but financial and other obstacles are jumping in my path. Prayers for peace and calm that surpasses all understanding because I am just not feeling it right now.

My husband is a great man, but he has never had a deep relationship with God. After 10 years of marriage, I realize that I need him to be a Godly man for our family. I also need prayer for me. I am attracted to a Godly man at church, and I don't know what to do about it. I wish I didn't have these feelings. God bless you for praying for us!

Please pray that I can find peace and joy with my circumstances. I have anger inside and I would like to change this into joy. I know Jesus, I just need someone to pray for me. Thanks so much!

Please pray for my husband. Since we got married almost 5 years ago he has undergone 2 back surgeries, a knee surgery and a heart surgery. His heart is not any better and the back surgeries have failed. He is a Marine Corps veteran but was denied medical coverage by the VA, so all of his medical expenses are our burden. But that's not why we need your prayers. He is locked in a pattern of excruciating back pain and addiction to powerful painkillers. He has recently accepted Jesus into his heart and his life and I praise God daily for working this blessing into our marriage. He does his best to hide his pain and addiction from me so that I don't worry, but I know how much he is hurting and I know that he hates having to depend upon medication that is so destructive to his daily life. He goes to bed each night hoping to get some rest but knowing that in the morning when he wakes up he will still be in pain. He prays for help daily but I know that he feels hopeless. Please pray for him that God will relieve his pain or at least give him strength to endure these trials. Also, pray for his new found faith to grow and blossom. I feel that God has big plans for him to use him to reach other people in similar situations that seem hopeless, but for now he just needs relief and our prayers. Thank you, and God bless.

Please lift up my high school senior son. He led the baseball team in prayers before games, and started a baseball Bible study. He caught a lot of "flack" from some of his teammates. Now the coach is not playing him, and he is very "down." (Coach is a Christian...so it's not the "praying" thing) I want him to still glorify God though this very tough time, and God to somehow lift him up! Thank you ...and God bless YOU for praying!

My best friend has been shutting me out since December. I keep asking what I have done, but she won't tell me, so maybe I haven't done anything and it's just her. I have tried everything that I know to get to the bottom of this, but she communicates very little with me and just keeps stringing me along. I do believe that she does still care about me, but because I know her so well, my gut is telling me that something big has taken place in her life and she's afraid to tell me or afraid of how I will react. She has had a VERY rough childhood and I know that she sweeps things under the rug when she doesn't want to deal with things. She is acting very uncharacteristic and claims that she is only doing this to me. She just started dating a guy that I don't feel is the kind of Godly man for her. I am concerned for her wellbeing. I know in my heart of hearts that something is seriously wrong. I have been seeking God continually about this, and last Saturday He spoke to me to stop pursuing her. She has communicated with me a little more this week, which I am glad, but if she is going to end our friendship altogether, then I would rather know that for sure, so that I can heal. I care very much for her and since I am a little older than her, I have always looked out for her and have known her since she was young (over 20 years). Please pray for her to obey God concerning me and this new boyfriend. Please pray for peace for me because it is very hard for me to go through this. I do want to obey God, so I will not pursue her like He told me and will respond when she initiates things, but I need healed in all of this, too. The hurt, pain, confusion, and concern is consuming too much of my time. Pray that I am relieved of that. Thank you so much for partnering with me in prayer!!!

Please pray I find a new job soon. I am so very unhappy in my current position, and ask for prayers to move into a job that makes me look forward to going to work each day.

1-Pray my mother is healed of diabetes. 2-Pray my brother is healed of dilated ascending aorta. 3-Pray my father is healed of parkinson's disease and has good mobility. 4-Pray a confidential need of mine is met.

Please pray for this to be a better experience than in the past. Give me courage, faith, and strength to be able to leave with all fears gone and return home to take care of my family, and pray for a speedy recovery. Pray that all my parts are working just as good. I pray that you would ask The Lord to shield me from any and all harm and danger. Thank you all!!!

We are under contract to sell our home. However, the buyers have made several additional requests for repairs. We've done our best to comply with their requests, but some of the things seem unreasonable. Please pray for our situation. We need to sell the home, as we've moved to our new home already. However, we don't want to be taken advantage of either. Please pray that our home sells.

I have a 21 month daughter with Down syndrome who still does not eat food. She is not getting the nutrition she needs and doctors are talking about having to put in a G-tube (stomach tube). I pray that the specialists figure out why she is not eating and that she start soon so that we do not have to go ahead and schedule this surgery!
