I have been requesting prayer for my marriage for almost a year now..My name is Melissa Guenther..My husbands name is Armando Barrera-Nova..I have 2 children Anthony who is now 10, and Jasmine who is now 6 years old..My husband was removed from our home in the state of Wisconsin for child abuse..My children, and I were going to move to Minnesota; but that did not work out at all..;Instead we came to Tn where I have family...Things are not going so well here, and my family has changed so much..When my children and I came we stayed with an elderly couple that we have known for a while through my husband..;But we were put out of where we were staying..We had been there for a good long while they were old, and could not handle having children around all the time..With everything I was going through I lost my job at Macy's..I end up working for a staffing agency that sent me to a job that was so horrible..And the pay was small..Within 2 weeks I told the temp agency the problems I was having with that job in hopes they would resolve the issues like them not allowing me to go to the bathroom, and other things..And they automatically put me in another job 10 times worse, and paid even less..It was only 7.70 an hour their was just no way I could pay rent with that..After we got put out I had to find an apartment almost at the last minute..My church paid a month for us to stay in a hotel then we moved..My rent is $635...Then theirs electric, food, and phone.,etc..To make this short I am now without the other job..The first day I injured my back..So things have just been terrible for us..My husband is really not providing for us at all..Of coursezp he never has in the 8 years of our marriage..And blames me, and my son for what he has done wrong..I had my faults in the marriage; but I always asked for forgiveness..My husbands heart has become so cold, bitter, and hard..I have become so depressed..I have fallen into deep depression..I wished I had been more content in Wisconsin..I had jobs that paid $10 or more..I think on all the good memories my husband, and I shared together I can't get them out of my head..I want to keep hoping things will change..My husband and I always had so many problems in our marriage..But I kept hoping things would change..It seems to just have gotten worse..I don't want to give up..But I have called Legal Aid to file for a divorce..Its really not what I want..I have the interview the 28th of this month..Please pray for us..I cry almost every night; because I'm in so much pain, and don't sleep much..My husband is so cruel to me..Again his heart has grown even colder to the point I feel he may have moved on..I pray so much, and don't understand why these prayers are not being answered..I also need prayer for my depression, and a good paying job..I'm scared, and know I should trust in the Lord..But I have 2 little ones who need me..I just don't know what to do anymore..I wish a check by mail enough to secure us for a little while..I don't drink, smoke, party, etc..Yet I never really have money..My husband is like me we neither one smoke, use drugs or profane words, alcohol, etc..Not that it saves us; but sometimes those things are a big problem in a marriage..I'm also not a money spending person..It maybe that my husband does not have the Lord God in his heart..He believes he is saved; but I question it..I am not God though..I pray that whatever it may take to lead my husband to Salvation..Thank you for all your prayers and support..

Please pray for my daughter Samantha. She will be beginning a new part of her life after graduating. Please pray that God will always be her guide and that He will have favor on her to find a job to support herself. I also am asking that God really get her focused on both her spiritual life as well as her physical well being. She drinks too much, and isn't staying disciplined when it comes to exercise and eating for her health, I ask for God to send her strength and diligence to get herself back to a healthful place as well as keep her mental health stable so she can go off of meds. In Christ's name I ask this.

Brothers and Sisters, I ask you to pray with me now. Heavenly Father, I thank you for giving your only begotten son for us, when we were dead, in sin. I thank you for getting me involved in such an amazing organization that helps so many people in our community. The Wisconsin Christian Recovery Network. I pray that you lead the right people to the Network to get the help they may need for their addictions and mental health issues and/or support in their everyday lives. I ask you to work in the hearts of everyone already involved and that we all may prosper from trusting in You and Your Word. I pray that the Women's House is perfectly furnished and ready by June 1st. I pray that you can help us get the 24 hour food pantry up and running smoothly as soon as possible. I pray for the 24 hour prayer line to be exposed to anyone needing prayers. I ask you to help WCRN financially, and lead the right people our way to become part of the Network and get involved to help and change our community and the lives of many!! I ask for you to work in our hearts and minds to complete all goals for the Network in a timely manner. I pray for our Party with a Purpose tour to "Lifest" in Oshkosh, WI to be successful and ran extremely smoothly and pray for others to go (as it will be life changing). Father, I also pray that you continue to give me and every single other believer on this earth the strength to live in this world, and live for YOU, and DO YOUR WILL! We pray in the name of your Son, our lord and saviour, Jesus Christ. Amen!

I am a single mom of 3 middle schoolers. My ex moved out of state so he would not have to pay child support 10 years ago. We live in Gods hands financially. He always provides for our needs however, it's not always on the 1st of the month. Our landlord of 7 years gave us an eviction notice this weekend. My boys are really scared about what will happen to us. We do not have family we can live with and no money for a move. I know He will take care of us and provide a new home, it's just one more thing I have to deal with on my own. Please pray for my children not to be afraid and strength, faith and a miracle for us.
