Prayer Request

This is really a strange prayers request. Ya see, I normally have lots of prayer requests, but they are all for other people. I pray for my husband, my kids, my parents, siblings, nieces & nephews, family members, friends, facebook friends, customers, co workers, people I dont know and even my enemies or people who have done me wrong. But I have never had a prayer request for myself. I guess I feel its selfish to be thinking about myself or putting myself first or trying to make myself important or a priority. But Im gonna go against my conscience and ask for some prayers for me this time. I have been working so hard for so long. I am a strong woman, and Im use to putting on a strong front and being strong for everyone else. Im always there to help someone, give anything i can, lend a hand, and be their rock. I have been a caregiver in the past to more patients then I can count, I always went above and beyond the call of duty and loved and cared for them as if they were my own family members. I have went above and beyond for nieces and nephews and friends of my own kids, trying to be loving, giving, caring and acting as a second mom or surrogate mom in many cases. I have went out of my way for my kids, to give them love, security and everything in life i could and give them a good upbringing and loving home. I have went above and beyond for numerous family members and friends, loaning money, providing food, shelter, basic neccessities, advice & favors more times then i can count. I have worked so hard to be a good daughter, sister, wife, mother, friend....... I have been there for everyone always.....and I have spent the past several years taking care of my parents and all their needs and issues, being one of ten kids and the only one to do so and the only one to make my parents a priority in my life. I have been killing myself physically, mentally, emotionally, financially (and pushing my husband too) to build something great, a legacy for my family, a tribute to my parents and a fulfillment of a dream they had and I had for my family and a fulfillment of a deathbed promise I made to my dad before he passed. I give and give and give, and I am taken advantage of, used, treated bad, under appreciated, under acknowledged, treated with jealousy, malice and spite by all the ones I love and I have always shown love too. Im tired. Im heartbroken. Im hurt and feel very alone. I just need my faith lifted. I have tremendous faith in God and I believe in the power of prayer. Please pray for me. Ask God to please lighten my load, renew my strength & faith and just send me some peace & joy for awhile. Security, peace of mind and some love my way. Thats all. Thank you!
