Dear Heavenly Father: Thank you for all you do for us, blessings given to us and your continual holding and carrying us. Please be with those who are in pain, fear, anxiousness, sadness and disappointments, lonliness and confusion. Please wrap your arms around them, so they can feel your peace and understanding. Help us to lay all of our burdens at the foot of the cross. Please help us to leave them there and not pick them up again.
In the Name of Your Precious Son, Amen

Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you;
not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not
your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. John 14:27
Jesus said to him," If you can believe, all things are possible
to him who believes. Mark 9:23

Good morning ladies!
Father I want to especially lift up Genia, and I pray that you carry her through whatever pain and suffering she is going through, and her family struggles right now, Lord I ask that you carry them through these times as well. I just thank you so much for all of the women on here. I thank you for Jo-5 for posting that song, and I thank you for the glorious and uplifting music you allowed me to hear on the radio on the way to work this morning. I pray I do your work today Lord, and I am glorifying to you, and for you!
I lift all the women of this entire site up to you, for they are all in need of your love and care, and especially the ones who are not saved, I pray Lord that they come to know your love and mercy. Thank you Lord for allowing us to come to you, I love you Father, and I pray all of this in your sons Holy name, Jesus Christ. Amen.0 -
Thank you Butterfly137 - I continue to grow in the Lord and you all help me by allowing me to try and minister somewhat. In any little way that I can serve our Lord, I will.
Genia, that is only satan trying to get to you. he attacks most at those closest to us - our children, husbands, and families. Hold on to the Lord's outstretched hand and he will bring you through. He did it recently for me so I'm speaking from first-hand experience!
Foots, I'm thrilled that you are finally getting some help. Prayer works and our God is awesome.
Kbug, Estepp, DK, JO, Jane, Glanter, and Bette who is not on here but is a child of the Almighty, thank you for your ministry of prayer.
From Charles Stanley's devotional: "From God's perspective, the content of our prayers takes second place to the question of whether or not we are willing to obey Him. His ultimate goal is hearts and minds that are in complete harmony with His kingdom agenda. His plans for you and me is to move us to the place where we can sincerely say, "Not as I will, but as you will.""

This is my prayer every night..and I try to say each word- not to recite from memory. I have found great comfort in this as well as the Apostles Creed.

16 days have passed since Jordan's 4-wheeler accident. He has yet to open his eyes and speak. He has some movement and sometimes will squeeze his mom's hand. I know it takes time for brain injuries to heal. We just do not have patience. I also know that it will be in God's time and He has a whole lot of patience, He has proved that time and time again with His people. Please continue to remember this 19 yr old young man and his parents in your daily prayers.
God is so good and I just know that he will heal Jordan completely.
Thanks to all my sisters

Yes, Lord, I mimic my sisters in our intercessory prayer requests that these parents will put their total trust in you as the great physician. We await you, dear Lord, with patience and supplication. Amen.

Dear Lord.....
May my heart
be Your temple
May my words
be Your song
May You dwell
inside me all
the day long
May my eyes see Your glory; may my breath take You in
May You always be with me to deliver me from my sins
May my ears hear Your whisper as You watch me sleep
May I always see the path You have lighted for my feet
May I have peace
and convey Your
wishes to others
May I regard any
stranger as if he
were my brother
May I always love
You and obey all
of Your commands
May You always be
my Savior who
forever holds my hand. By Kendera D. Elmore

Miracle
Miracles can happen. They can
come at any time. Even when things
seem darkest, there is a miracle
lurking nearby. Believe in the impossible,
even when the obvious is staring you
in the face, produces extraordinary results.
The darkest cloud produces the brightest
light when the sun breaks through. Believing
in the sun, even though you can't see it, Is
what faith is all about. God knows when the
impossible is just about to get you down, and
He needs to let you know how much He cares.
That's when He give you the miracle you've
been looking for. In that moment, the clouds
part and the sun will come through to you. By Rodger Austin

Debbie: Your messages touch my heart - everyone I read. I know they come from your heart - it shows through and through in every one of your posts, your scriptures, your poems (whether they are yours or someone else's). Thank you so very much.
I am so glad I found this thread. Everyone is very uplifting!! I love all your prayers. As I read I am nodding my head in agreement. I just say - Thank You, Lord, for each and every one of you.
My love to all of you. Debbie

Praying for Jordan. There is nothing to big or small for God to do. He needs a brand new touch and his parents need a peace. We all are agreeing on this and will see a change soon I pray . God bless all.

Lord, I pray for Jordan, and his family that you will restore him Lord, and comfort him and his family during this time.
I want to thank you Lord, for humbling me, and teaching me a priceless lesson today, one that many had tried to teach me by telling me, but my stubbornness got in the way, and only You could do it, and I truly thank you. I would also like to lift up all the women of this group, they have been so uplifting, and I have been, by my own doing, on such a downward spiral and they have been a part of what kept me afloat. I also want to lift up the women in my bible study tonight, I pray for their safety arriving and going home, and pray for Holy Spirit Lord, and that we search for you, and truly be there to uplift each other.
I thank you for this day, I thank you for my struggles, for they are truly blessings in disguise. YOU are my true One And Only, and I thank you, and love you Father! I pray all of this in your son's Holy, and precious, name, Jesus Christ. Amen.

God Knows
When you are tired and discouraged from fruitless efforts....
God knows how hard you have tired.
When you've cried so long and your heart is in anguish...
God has counted your tears.
If you feel that life is on hold and time has passed you by...
God is waiting with you.
When you are lonely and your friends are to busy, even for a phone call.
God is by your side.
When you think you've tired everything and don't know where to turn....
God has a solution.
When nothing makes sense and you are confused or frustrated...
God has the answer.
If suddenly your outlook is brighter and you find traces of hope...
God has whispered to you.
When things are going well and you have much to be thankful for...
God has blessed you.
When something joyful happens and you are filled with awe...
God has smiled upon you.
When you have a purpose to fulfill and a dream to follow..
God has opened your eyes and called you by name.
Remember that wherever you are or whatever you're facing.....
God knows. Kelly D Caron

Christ Jesus you hear the petitions and intercessory prayers from my sisters here, your children. I can only say ditto dear Lord because you alone know the depth of all their needs. To Jordon and his family Lord we ask your intervention in his healing and his parents strength. We pray they will reach out to you in faith.
We thank you for answering our prayers and softening Lucy's DH so that she can stay with us.
For JO, Genia, Estepp, EWB, Butterfly, Kbug, DK, Ljh, Foots, and anyone else I have not listed, we thank you for building their faith through these boards.
A special word for Hollyann, dear Lord, that you will watch over her as she tries to find work. It is a difficult time for her Lord to deal with this continuing journey, her loss of work and worry about her DH. We know that you are able and will see her through this. We are claiming quick victory on her behalf.
In Jesus precious name, Amen.

Hi all,
I haven't been on for a few days. God has sent me the answer that I needed. Thanks for the prayers and the encouragement. I'm going to finish my treatment for the whole five years. I saw three docs this last couple of weeks and they encouraged me to finish and we'll deal with the se's. I just have to figure out work cause I can't work much and have all the se's too. I work at my church and they've been great. I talk to the pastor next week to work out hours. Please pray that God will provide for our finances...we've tried to give back our truck, refi our house...nothing is working out there and we owe so much in medical bills. I know that the Lord will take care of all of it though...somehow.
Lord, thank you for all the blessings that you have given us and for each day, hour and minute you give us. I'm so thankful you are in my life. Thank you for carrying me through this time and teaching me a trust that only you can give.
Lord please be with all these wonderful ladies as they rest in your arms, protect them Lord, give them the peace that only you can give, and the strength that only you can provide. Show them how much you love them Lord every minute of every day. We need you Lord! Amen

Ladies, we have a very young girl, Chelsea, we need to pray for. She has tried committing suicide twice, and both times nearly succeeded. The devil is working hard on her, so we need to cast as many angels against him! Please Father, hold Chelsea in your hands, love her, heal her, and let her know, she is a chosen and precious child. I do not know this girl personally, but Father, i feel her pain, and I ask Lord, that we may all take a piece of her burden, and that she may be relieved from her own, long enough to get through this trial in life, and come to you Father.
Lord, I also lift up Jordan, another young soul. I pray for a complete recovery, and I pray that you comfort his family.I thank you Lord, for all of these women, and I ask Lord, that we may all do the right thing for YOU today...I love you Father, and i pray all of this in your sons Holy name, Jesus Christ. Amen.
