I need prayer

[TimothyVI]

Mandy,

My heart aches for the pain that you are feeling.
My prayers will be for God to give you the peace and comfort that you deserve,
and the wisdom to make the best decision for you and
your family.

Tim

Hi Jodi and Mandy,
Our prayers are with you too. Keep trusting the Almighty God who can do valiantly in our lives.
Here I am quoting a wonderful poem which was sent by a Sister in the Lord when I was in my college which miraculously strengthened me in my dipression. May God strengthen you too.

GOD IS ALWAYS NEAR

One thing can always cheer me
      when I'm feeling sad and low
When I tire of daily trials that I have to undergo
       When those should seem closest
             seem like people I don't know
        One thing can always cheer me
                       I know that GOD is near me.

                           One thing can always cheer me
                                  When I do not understand
                               How pain and sadness
                                       in our lives
                              Can get so out of hand
                        When the best of human efforts
                            doesn't meet the day's demands,
                        One thing can always cheer me…
                              I know that GOD is near me.

     One thing can always cheer me
               more than anything I've known
And show me I will never have to struggle on my own,
For no matter what might happen, I will never be alone…
                 The thing that always cheer me
Is just knowing GOD IS NEAR ME

Love and peace to you
Adam

Mandy, My thoughts and prayers are with you, may God give you strength and lead you through this difficult and confusing time. I feel bad that I have not checked the prayer request lately. When I come on the site I usually try and stick with one topic, especially if I am really fired up about it. Earlier today, I checked the prayer board, because I am in need of prayers for my brother and his wife. My brother called me today to let me know that he has just gotten out of Alcohol rehab, which is not a shock. I have always known him to drink. Apparently he had been drinking quite a bit and it was taking it's toll on his marriage. My brother did not tell me directly, but it sounds like my sister in law had an affair, which my brother found out a few weeks ago. This is what pushed his drinking over the edge. She wants to separate, my brother does not want to do that. They have 3 young children, which makes this all very sad. She says she needs to 'find herself.' My brother has struggled with depression since high school along with anxiety and panic attacks. He feels very alone. He is going to be staying with some friends for awhile. But unfortunately he is in Colorado and all his close family is out here in Oregon with me. I am very worried about him, and everyones prayers would be greatly appreciated.   Peace and love to all, Jodi

Jodi!  I will keep your Brother in my Prayers. May God be with Him and all of you. Don't worry to much, Jodi. Trust in the Lord that He will work it all out for all of you.
Peace and Love Irene

Dear Jodi,
I have a friend that was into drugs, alcohol and women all while married. He was a train wreck but by the grace of God, his life was turned around. Now, he and his wife are close friends to our family. In fact, today I take their 10 year old daughter to Florida with my 11 year old daughter and I. We will be meeting my husband and 16 year old son as they will complete their 430 mile bike trip give or take a few miles for wrong turns.:p

I will pray for your brother and his family.

God bless,
Kathi

Thanks for remembering me, Tim. It means a lot coming from you, I don't know why, it just does. 😉

The last few days have been so hard. I never thought life could be this hard. I've never known such emotional pain. I mean, I've buried loved ones and thought that the pain of death and losing someone in that way would be the ultimate in grief, but I was wrong.

Grieving someone who is still alive, yet dead to you is the ultimate pain.

I'm still hoping even though I don't know why? I guess I'm a faithful dog. I know that obedience brings blessing and so I'm praying that my heavenly Father will see me, and take note that I am trying to love this man that I have pledged my heart to.

I'm trying to remember who the ultimate lover is…… I'm hoping that by losing my life, I may find it.

Thanks again, bro.
Mandy

Thanks bro Adam for the poem, it was very nice and encouraging.
One thing that gets me by in the quiet of the evenings, and the silence between my mate and I, is that the Lord is ever near me.

God bless you,
Mandy

Mandy! Sorry that you have to hurt so much. My Love and Hope that everything will work out for you, are with you. I wonder since He is with you, in the silent nights, what goes through His mind. Since He is an Alcoholic, is it the Disease that caused all, and He is just in Limbo right now? Something is telling me that everything is going to work out for you. Just hang on to Jesus.
God sees your pain and you will be rewarded for all, that I do know. Keep on trusting God and all will turn out for the best.
Christ said if you can't pick up your cross, you are not worthy of me. Remember the Footprint in the Sand. Jesus is caring you right now.
With all my Love and Prayers Irene

That makes two of us!

The lonliness is unbearable sometimes. To be honest, that is what led me to find HeavenNet and why I've logged so many hours HERE……

Mrs… Do You think this whole relatonship thing is a stage to go thru,  arr  in middle stage life?

Often when a heart is set free, it finds it’s just where it wanted to be.
Chains spoil the mood; stress on true commitment restricting moves.

Hope this dosn't sound to bad Mandy but…
Im both sad for you and how can it be? blessed that you were lonley enough to be here.

May all the happyness you desire, be yours in love from God

To all! It is my turn to ask for prayers. Georg had some disturbing news. Even tho His Cancer is not life threatening right now, but He has to have Radiation Treatment. Inside, not on the outside. We will know more about the procedure today after Georg has talked to the Doctor that does this.
In the meantime I would appreciate your Prayer my Daughter and I are rather upset about the whole thing. To top things off, He has a bad infection on His Tooth and His whole Face was swollen. First they cut open the area to leave the Infection drain out, and then they pulled the tooth. He was put to sleep and when He came Home , He was in bad shape. Our neighbor was kind enough to take Him and stay with Him and bring Him Home.
Yesterday was a nerve racking day. I still feel the effect.
Love Irene

[TimothyVI]

HI Irene,
You, George and your daughter are in my prayers.
As we age it seems we have so much more to indure.
Praise God that you have Jesus in your life to help you.

Someone told me once, “getting old ain't for sissies.”
Boy, isn't that a fact?

Tim

[gollamudi]

Hi Sis Irene,
Our prayers are with you, Georg and your Daughter. Please don't be panic about physical health, as long as we are in these mortal bodies we decay and suffer but our hope in those immortal spotless bodies which God is going to bring through His son Jesus in right time. Do trust in the Almighty God who can take away the pain of Georg and yours.
Peace and love to you
Adam

[Irene]

Thank you Jodi, Timothy and Adam your Prayers are very much appreciated. We will know more once Georg has had His Treatment how His Body reacts to it. God is in our Lives and He has helped us so much before. All is temporarily my friend always says, and that is very true. And if we can't pick up our cross like Jesus did, we are not worthy of Him. Thank you all.
Love Irene

[Irene]

Jodi! In a situation like that you really need to see a  professional, to ask for advice. Also a Minister might have some idea how to handle a person, like His Wife. With Children involved it is so sad and very difficult to give you any advice to tell your Brother, except that we will pray for Him, His Wife and for the safety of the Children.  
With all my Love Irene
P.S. I will also pray for you too.

[seekingtruth]

It helps once you've gone through trials (having placed them in the Fathers hands) to later see how you've benefited (not that during them they seem to have any value). The Father is the source of the peace that passes all understanding.

I have asked the Father to accomplish His will, but as much as possible to answer your prayers (not that my prayers mean any more than anyone else's but the Father does desire to give us all good things and while it only takes one asking, I believe that the more asking the better)

Hi Jodi,

Having had some experience with drug and alcohol addicted persons, I'm wondering if your sis-in-law had good reason to pack up the kids and jet? Her staying in hiding is for a reason, I assume? It sounds like there might be more going on than you ar privy to, but this is just a guess. I mean, she could be deranged I suppose, but women usually take their children and run when there is threat of danger to either them or the the children. It might help you to get the other side of the story. Can you get her phone number and will she talk to you?

[Not3in1]

Irene,

I will definitely remember Georg! It sounds like he is getting hit when he is down (the tooth on top of it all). Poor guy. I pray that his pain subsides and I pray the radiation zaps whatever it is that shouldn't be in his body. Meanwhile, I pray that you have peace and can sleep well knowing all is the hands of God.

Love to you both (and your daughter too),
Mandy

Hi Mandy! Thank you so very much for the well wishes. At least His tooth is feeling much better since they pulled it. But I tell you I never seen my Husband hurt that much. His mouth is still sore and He has to put His food into the blender to be able to eat. But He is strong and He will be fine, I hope and pray myself, cause I don't know what I would do without Him or my Daughter, we depend so much on Him.
You know what, I think you are one of the few that spell Georg right. It is also pronounced different then George.
Georg without an e and no middle name, because His Mother could'nt affort one.
How are you doing, I hope things are going better for you? I am still praying for all.
Love Irene

[Not3in1]

Ha – “…no middle name because his mother couldn't afford one.” Now you've got my curiosity up, Irene! Do share…..

[gollamudi]

Hi Sisters Irene and Jodi,
Our prayers are with you. Keep trusting our God and Saviour. There is no greater strength than it is from our Father in heaven. Be of good cheer and courage to face the situations.
Peace to you
Adam
