The Town of Odyssey

One of my friends just lost their unborn baby, would've been their second kid.

Aww, that's terrible. I will certainly be praying for them.

Oh no, I'll be praying for them.

Terribly saddening. :'( Will be praying.

That must be very hard. I will be praying for them.

^ I just prayed for them, Dan.

Just a quick prayer for moi: I am moving out of town in less than a week. This is my first time moving out on my own, so I am having a lot of jitters about it, and since I mentally try to interpret all my feelings as being of a spiritual nature (a bad habit I've been trying to break since a major emotional meltdown in May), my heart keeps saying that there is something wrong with my relationship with God, even though my head knows that there isn't. So if you could pray that my emotions about this move will stabilize and that God will give me peace about this move, that would be awesome. Thanks.

Good luck haystack. Moving is always a hard experience. I'll be praying.

I have a few requests for several people.

Ruth

She's starting highschool and is really stressed about it. She's stopped talking to some of her friends because of how stressed she is. Can you pray that she gets on her feet?

Joanne

She's about to see someone who she was in an unusual relationship with. They're about to try to fix some of the damage they did. But I'm worried about her and her friend. Can you pray for them?

Sam

She also has had some relationship problems. She's trying to get past someone and get closer to God, but she's having problems getting past him. She can't be anywhere around him without having problems. Can you guys pray that she can move on and get closer to God?

I am praying for those people, church. haystack, I am also praying for you.

I'll be praying for you as you settle into your new home. Also, I understand some of the problem you are having. I've had similar struggles throughout my saved life, especially, when I was a new Christian. I would often interpret my negative feelings as God's displeasure with me. My mom helped me realize that my emotions and feelings aren't a reliable gauge of my standing with God. I have to ask him to specifically show me his will and have faith in his word regardless of my emotions. I know this isn't exactly the same struggle as you are having but the root issue seems to be the same- Interpreting feelings as spiritual when they are not. Anyway I'll be praying for you!

Our AC went out on Friday. And ever since then our house has been a human oven. -_-

My grandma hasn't been doing well and she's in the hospital. She's been there for about a week now....but either Sunday night or Monday she had a major stroke. And from what I've heard, her left eye is shut and that side of her mouth is drooped and she can't chew.

Praying Anemone and Newfie Haystack!

I am praying, Anemone!

Praying, Anomone.

I have a similar prayer request. My friend's great-grandma is in the hospital. I found out a few days ago that her kidneys were failing her and she's not expected to live much longer. My friend's family flew down to see her, and right now their back at home, since they have things that need to be done here. Today I found out that that her kidneys have completely stopped working, and she could die anytime. Both of my friend's great-grandparents are strong Christians. I think my friend is upset that she can't be there with her great-grandparents right now.

If y'all could say a prayer for my friends 8 year old cousin, he has a brain tumor and is going in for surgery tomorrow, I would greatly appreciate it.

Praying Gracy

Hoo boy, could you guys just say a quick prayer for me? Right now I've been dealing with temptation all week plus a moderate anxiety attack yesterday, so if you could pray that God will give me the strength and peace to endure, that would be awesome. Thanks.

I'll be praying for you, Haystack!

I know I haven't been around for a while, but I have a prayer request...an officer at the police dept I work for died a couple weeks ago while on duty...it's really tough for everyone here working, knowing that he isn't around...he was a number of peoples' best friend and one of the most loved people here. I didn't know him well as I haven't worked here long, but it's hard seeing everyone struggle and not being able to make things better. It's been amazing how much the community and other officers have supported us all, but...prayer would also help support us. Thanks!

I'm sorry to hear that, soccerLOTR. It's never easy. I will be praying for you and the police force. *hugs*

Thanks for praying for me, everyone.

Thank you...and to all who posted on this page of requests--even the older ones, I just went through and prayed for you all.
