Please pray for healing for my mom. She is battling what my family and I believe is paranoia schizophrenia. She doesn't think she needs help, which makes it really tricky for my family and I. Her conditions have worsened very quickly, and I just want my mom to get better. I know God can do it, and that is why I'm asking for others to pray for her. Also, if you could pray for myself. I'm only 20, and through God's grace and love I have been able to endure a lot. I just want to be restored, so I can be able tinpour and invest into others while I'm away at college. Thanks so very much!

My friend and I are about to lead our third womens retreat in March. 'Who am I' 1 Chronicles 17:16. When we look over our list we both feel that we are missing some women-we are not sure who. *Pray God brings the women that need to be there. * Pray that the women are brought onto our path so we may invite them, without being "pushy" *Pray we continue to hear and be moved by God and follow only His ways for this retreat. Thank you

We have sooo many things to be thankful for! Fortunate in many ways. To all we owe thanks to God. There are a couple of area's in life where I feel I am failing miserably and they are starting to consume me negatively. My main concern is financial. Our immediate family is intact and put our faith in the Lord (for the most part). My husband and I have been married for 19 yrs. He is a carpenter (25yrs), and I run and in-home child care (16yrs). Both doing what we love and where God has gifted us. We have two wonderful daughters (15 & 13) - both involved with church, choir mentoring, activities, etc. They are both active with school, sports and dance. Both my husband and I grew up in low income families. We unfortunately have very little extended family. Both sets of grandparents and parents have passed, even my sibling to suicide. There was alcohol and depression abound - not a lot of positive, healthy role modeling. But that is ok, because we know it is Gods plan and that we have grown in many ways from it - again thanks be to God! We want so much more for our children. Financially we are being terrible role models. We both have been extremely blessed with consistent work/income, and yet we are sinking in debt. Struggling to pay our monthly bills. I am the one who "takes care of the finances". I am having a hard time expressing the severity of our financial situation with out sounding ungrateful or petty, please understand. I need prayer! Please pray for strength to say "no". Please pray for me to humble myself. Please pray that all four of our family will understand and be willing to sacrifice today for a more stable tomorrow. PLEASE ADD WHAT EVER PRAYER GOD PUTS ON YOUR HEART FOR US! THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU DO AND GOD BLESS!

My husband took a job out in North Dakota due to our financial situation at home. We now live about 14 hours apart. He has been living with relatives out there during his shifts and comes home on his days off. We are very thankful for the relatives welcoming my husband into their home. I dont think we could afford to have him out there and still catch up on our bills if he did not have this place to stay. However by him staying there he is causing a rift in the family and I do believe he has come to the end of his welcome. We have many options as a family unit but none of them are very good. I need guidance in what to do. The housing market out in that area of the country is very expensive and we would not be able to afford both a place for him out there and our mortgage here. I am scared that the decision we will be forced to make will greatly impact our children and cause great pain. I need help in praying for guidance and answers. Thank you.
