I would like to thank all of you for your Prayers. The Good Lord has been with us and he has answered them. My Daughter and her Family were not able to find a country home. But a very good Family friend who has a farm took in the boys ducks and chickens. So they are still able to go and see them and the boys are really excited because their Mommy duck just laid her first egg this week so now their are waiting to see if she has babies. LOL The house they rented they had called on and were told it had just rented out the night before they called on it. It was through a realitor company and they told him what they were looking for he said he would keep his eyes open and put them on his list. A couple of days later they get a call back from the realitor on the 4 bedroom 2 bath house. Telling them that they can come and look at the house. ( something did not work out for the other ones to rent it. ) This house is my Daughters dream house she fell in love with it. They now have their 4 bedroom. Plus an extra bedroom for company. It just can't be called a bedroom when renting because it has no closet. A built in tornado shelter in the basement. ( I think that was the selling point for my Daughter. LOL. ) A 8 foot high privacy fenced in big back yard, screened in patio and screened in deck that runs the full lenght of the house, plus then it has one great big room on the 3 floor that is 20' by 30' it looks like this at one time was a party room then there is still another smaller room off of this room and the Boys just love going up here a.d running and playing since it is so big and open. And their rent is only $700.00 a month they are all happy and they are no longer in just a 2 bedroom small house. I know they are safer and when the boys are outside I know nobody can see them well they are playing in the back yard. And they were able to keep their dogs so they help protect them to. I was also able to find my own place and keep my dog. So far we have not seen my Ex boy friend but we never told anyone where we were moving to as we did not want it to get back to him. Right now we are all happy and PRAY every day that he won't find us. But I do know with all of your Prayers my Prayers were answered and I couldn't ask for a safer house for my Daughter and Grandsons and the place I was able to get into is a security entry building so I feel safer here. So thank you all so much and thank you Dear Heavenly Father for being with us and answering our Prayers and and being with us everyday. Amen

First of all thank you and may God bless each one of you that has prayed for our family situation. My ex-husband has been a bit more involved with our children while our son was playing in winter sports. Those activities are done now, and I am fearful that the kids will have less contact with their father(by lack of effort on his part). I was able to share the gospel with him about a month ago. He just shook his head at me, chuckled, and said that he doesn't get it. My son wants to invite him to the Christian concert this Thursday night. Please continue to pray for his heart to be softened and that the scales would fall away from his eyes. Pray that my son remembers that his Heavenly Father will never disappoint him, even if his dad might.

Thank you for all your prayers. My daughter is now engaged to a wonderful man with 2 children. She now has her 4 year old daughter back living with her and her 10 mo old son. Now if they could find jobs it would help. My oldest son who has a TBI and PTSD from Iraq is now living with me. I am his caregiver. My youngest son is in a wonderful relationship and employed by the dept of corrections in IL. My other son and wife are still in TX saving to move back up north closer to family. Again thank you for your prayers.

As I am writing this story, my daughter whom you have prayed for several months is relocating to start a new chapter of her life-she will be with her brother and sister and my husband (he is working away from home) She got a call and has an interview at the hospital there for a job that makes her sing and dance. Asking for prayer that this job be offered to her. The Kutless concert gave her hope and renewed her spirit in god. THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO HAS PRAYED FOR HER and please continue to pray for her courage and strength as she begins her life free from danger and harm.

Well, it has now been 6 weeks since the fire and we are HAPPY to say that we are FINALLY moved into our new place as of Nov 1st and living in the same neighborhood just up the road on Hillcrest in a 3BR Townhome. I just wanted to say a HUGE THANK YOU to everyone who has been praying for not only our family of 4 but the other 11 families as well. We would also like to thank the staff at the Brainerd Hotel for their kind hospitality during our 5 week stay there! We are slowly unpacking things day by day and getting ready for our next phase of life with our new baby son Phillip Raymond who is due next March on the 29th! THANK YOU PULSE and GOD BLESS 1 AND ALL! Sean, Angie, John and Phillip Toven

I've been divorced for 1.5 years and I shared earlier that my older 2 children have remained distant. I have a praise in that my 15 year old came to stay with me a few nights ago and I thought it went very well! Praise God! My oldest remains untouchable. My youngest has remained in touch, but others in the family throw off his 'groove' so to speak when it comes to staying in touch....I guess that comes with the territory as far as divorce is concerned. I often feel alone, in this struggle but I know that there are many people in the same position. Thank you so much for your prayers...keep praying!

I put my prayer request out quite awhile ago. The outpouring of support has been amazing, yet the problems at my job continue. Just as things with the supervisor were coming to a head again this week, I started receiving e mails that people prayed for me! I had gotten lots of support when the request was first posted, but then as time went on and other requests were posted, the messages stopped. All of a sudden in the "heat of the battle" they are appearing again! Praise God for his faithfulness and for assuring me that he knows and cares. Thanks to all of you for the outpouring of support. It is so good to have Christian brothers and sisters to lean on.

Hi everyone! I put a prayer request up about a month and a half ago about a stress and my car breaking down and feeling like everything was going wrong... I just wanted to update you to tell everyone that I got a new car yesterday! I didn't have to go into debt on it, and it runs much better than my last car! It was a blessing in disguise because my last car was becoming unsafe to drive in and this one is much safer. As for my trip to Nashville, it was very successful in my eyes. I went to a camp called Camp Electric there, and I got to work alongside all of my favorite Christian artists such as Mikeschair, tobyMac, and KJ-52! Everyone I sang for said I have a very good voice, and now I am back home working on my music. Thank you so much for all of your prayers! God always works everything out for His glory, and he took my pains and stresses and turned them into opportunities for me! God bless each and every one of you!

since I have requested prayer for my friend with the liver cancer and for my own undiagnosed medical issues has been miracles and blessings showered on both of us. my friends liver is now free from any cancer, but still has swollen lymph nodes but they have shrunk. For myself I have recieved answers to my prayers one after another. God has come through in ways I have not seen before I am truly blessed. Thank you all for taking the time to pray for us both.

I am just so thankful for all the prayers that have been said for our son. He'll be finishing treatment program next week and going to a halfway house. He'll have to find work or attend school, so please pray for God's will to be done in his life. He has made a complete turnaround, but he also knows that he was in a safe place at the center and has real concerns about relapsing. They say that's good, because he understands or is starting to, his disease. Please keep him in your prayers, as I can see God answering them, and what is so wonderful, is that God is answering them in His way and it is such a joy to behold Him working in our lives and all the other prayers that are requested. God Bless you all!! Prayer Works!

I asked for prayer just last week when he got out of jail. He called yesterday and has found a job, same place he worked before and they love him and he will get promoted to office mgr as soon as he gets out of the halfway house. He was given over $700 worth of dress work clothes by a person who works at the halfway house! He had only the clothes on his back 2 weeks ago. He said that prayers are being answered left and right and he is so grateful. Keep praying. I appreciate you and am so grateful for God's great blessings!

I shared how my son is going down the wrong path. Since I posted the request for prayers for him, we have seen a difference in him. Tho, it's not a huge turn around, it's a beginning! He has started to talk to us, which was not a scene previously. Please continue to pray for him and for our family to be in the center of God's will. Thank you for your prayers and God bless you!!!
