I ask for your prayers for me and my girls. Their father and I have ended things after years of strugfles and challenges that no couple should face. Now I am looking for a job after being a stay at home mom for 5 years and looking for a new place to live, a car, and struggling to keep up with the basic necessities for my girls, let alone my bills, as their dad isn't helping us right now. So many things happening at once, so I just pray for strength to keep me going. The Lord says not to worry and cast all worries upon Him and I am trying my best. I trust in Him. I also ask for prayers for my girls' dad. I pray that I can forgive him for all the hurtful things he has done. But mostly I pray that he will realize how much his children love him and hope that he will finally begin making them a top priority in his life. I pray that he let's God into his heart and makes positive changes. Please help us to put our girls needs first and keep love abundant for them in our seemingly broken home. My children and God are the only things keeping me from falling apart right now. God is so good and I know better things are coming soon, I just pray to keep strong until we get there. Amen.

My mom is on her way to visit me and then we are traveling to California to visit my sister and nephews. My mom has severe rheumatoid arthritis and hasn't drive by herself in a few years. I just pray that her drive to me is safe and that our journey continues on to be safe. I pray that the Lord watches over us on this trip. Also I have a few unspoken trials and tribulations going on that I just ask for prayers. In Jesus' name, Amen!

I just pray that God shows me strength and comfort during this time. My dad passed away in January so this is the first Father's Day without him. I didn't have the best relationship with him before he died but I do remember one of my last good conversations with him was on Father's Day last year. My very last conversation with him ever was in July of last year on his birthday and it wasn't a good one and it was the last time I spoke to him. Its been very hard on me to deal with not being able to call my dad on Father's Day and talk to him. Even if it were arguing, I'd give anything to hear his voice again. I know my sister and I are both struggling through this and I just pray to my heavenly father that He helps us both through this hard time in our life. And that He can help me to forgive myself for mistakes I made with my dad in the past and to get over my regrets. I love you Dad. I just really miss you so much.

Please pray for not only me, but others, who are struggling financially in this hard economy. I've been laid off since January, the day after my father tragically passed away, and I've been struggling ever since to find employment. I get unemployment but it's not even close to enough to pay my bills. I struggle each month to pay rent and haven't paid many of my bills for months. The stress and burden on my shoulders is heavy and hard to deal with. I feel as though I've been through many struggles lately, like it's one thing after another, but I know the good Lord is guiding me through this to become a stronger person. I just pray that things will get better soon and that I can begin to enjoy the journey more. I'm currently trying to follow my dreams as a musician and I feel as though all of these burdens hold me back. I pray that others in my situation can also find comfort in God and keep hope and faith that life will get easier. I trust in Him to guide me through!

Please pray for me and my family. My dad was killed in a tragic work accident today. He was a journeyman/lineman electrician in Colorado and tragically the bucket lift failed and crashed down into the truck. My father was killed instantly. He leaves behind his wife and stepdaughter, along with me and my two older siblings and numerous family members. He was only 53. Another employee working with him was traumatically hurt and his status is unknown at this time but it does not look good. I ask that you also please pray for him and his family through this awful time. I pray that this man makes it and that his family and mine stay strong through this hard time.
What hurts me the most is that I haven't always been close to my father. He left when I was a baby and lived with him off and on growing up. I tried hard to have a relationship with him but it was not very successful. The last time I spoke to him was on his birthday in July of 2009. I called to wish him a happy birthday. Then due to other circumstances we ended up getting into an argument and I said things that I now regret. I was too stubborn to pick up the phone and be the better person and move on after that. Instead I ignored him and didn't even call on Christmas also did not receive one. I did want to visit him on Christmas with my sister when she went with her kids but I couldn't take time off from my new job. I could have seen my father 2 weeks ago and repaired our broken relationship but I couldn't afford to lose my job. Now I've lost my dad. I'm devastated and angry at myself. I also find myself angry at him for not trying harder to help repair our relationship. I'll never get to. I'll never get the chance to tell him how I felt and that I just wanted him so badly to act like a father. I know that I can't keep thinking this way and keep being angry at myself but I know I will be for a long time. I just feel so selfish. So I just also ask for prayers of peace and strength. Please don't ever take anyone for granted. Tell everyone that you care about just how much they mean to you, say I love you, give that hug, give that thanks, show the appreciation, tell them how you feel. Don't be too stubborn to fix a broken relationship or apologize first. You may never get the chance. Love with all your heart all the time. Live like there is no tomorrow because someday there won't be one. I pray that God blesses all of you.

I recently went through a divorce and am getting overwhelmed with financial burdens. I am struggling to find a job and I'm back in school after 6 years and I'm really hoping that I don't have to quit due to the financial struggles. I am worried about my bills and making rent and just ask for your prayers that God will help guide me through this tough time in my life. I also ask for prayers for my roommate who is also going through struggles of his own and pray that we can both get through our trials and tribulations while trusting in the Lord. I pray that the Lord will help me overcome the temptations and sins I deal with everyday. I continue to trust in the Lord knowing that He is great and will never lead me astray and ask for courage and strength to continue to spread His word to others. I pray that God will also bless all of you! Our heavenly father is magnificent! Thank you all in advance for your prayers and encouragement. Amen!
