For Shelia
Father, I ask that You hear our prayer and Shelia's prayer. Flood her with confidence in you and teach her to trust in You with all of her heart and not lean on the things of this earth. When she feels alone,sad, please teach her to turn to you 1ST ... that you are all she needs and Father as you change her from the inside out please let her confidence in your flow through her home and bring peace where there was no peace. Teach her that Your life brings hope, joy, peace and that she can find all of her answers in You, Your word and give her understanding how to respond when flesh desires try to overwhelm her. Father, I ask that You speak peace to her spiritually and physically. I thank You for Your answers... In Jesus most precious name I pray.

Advice About Salvation
Return to Original Post
Cynthia, God sent His son to restore our relationship that should have been ours if it were not for sin. When Adam and Eve sinned in the garden. They disobeyed God's only stipulation for their life: Not to eat from the tree of knowledge. When they did, The Spirit of God, the fullness of God died in them and they then knew evil and from that moment on lives would be changed because of it.
If you will look up these verses and ask God to reveal the truth in them, I believe you will get off the fence and run to Jesus and find peace for the first time in your life.
1John 5:11-12 And this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son.He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life.
Genesis 1:1 says In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth
John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
Romans 3:26 For all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God
Romans 6:23 The wages of sin is death but the gift of God is Eternal Life through Jesus Christ the Lord
Romans 5:8 God showed His love to us that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us.
Romans 10:9-10 If you confess with your mouth that Jesus Christ is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart man believeth for righteousness and with the mouth confession is made for salvation.
So if you believe that Jesus is God's son and that He paid for your sin when He died on the Cross and rose from the dead, you are saved. Then read all the book of John and get to know who it is who loves you. Trust His word for it is life. Read John 10 over and over and realize that He is your Shepherd and He will never leave you nor forsake you.
I pray that you will just in faith trust Him, When you do, you will never be the same. And you will never want to turn back.
Thank you for asking.

Need Prayer for Marriage
Return to Original Post
A wise pastor once told our women's group, "Pray for your husbands, if God can't take care of him how can you?" That was wise advice. He went on to say that if we prayed for our spouses then it would change us. We wouldn't react everytime in anger and they wouldn't be mad at us while God was working on them. Live a godly life before him but pray and don't trust what you see, trust God to answer your prayers and make a difference. Read Psa 56:2 and verse 9. The entire chapter is about a time in David's life when he was afraid. He put his trust in God and found peace and a sure foundation. What a great example. I am asking God to lead you to that place.
God bless you as you seek to restore that which the evil one is trying to destroy.

Advice About Relationship
Return to original post
Mercy,
If God has brought you to this man, you can't love him without loving
the work God has called Him to. Ask God for guidance. His plan for you
is greater than you can imagine. I faced this situation with my
husband, and I am so grateful to God that He led me to follow Him
where ever He leads. He led me to marry, and His plan for our/my life
has been much better than my plans could ever have been. You can
always trust our God. I can not trust my feelings or emotions. They
will lead me in ways I don't ever want to go. So if you love this
Pastor, devote yourself to being his wife and best support, if that
is how God is leading. He will never fail you.

Slowly Being Burned by my Sister
Return to original post
Steph,
I think some space from your sister is good for now but it is not the permanent answer for you. Healing, correcting that which is wrong is what will make you stronger and allow you to move on in the direction God has planned for you.
You can move from the problem but the pain will be hidden in you and it will resurface and bitterness can set in. 1 John 1:9 Says "If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." We can't have that cleansing until each of us confess our sins. You can't and your sister can't.
I am praying that you will stop this interaction before it gets much bigger. Stop and look at the insecurities that your sister has. She the mother should remember the babies binky. She is feeling very insecure in her weight, her mothering and she needs to know that she is a good mother. That she is pretty. Unless someone takes the chance of talking to her in love, she won't get that which she is screaming for and that is to have the affirmation that she is a good mom, a good sister and that she is still attractive after 2 children.
I know you are being hurt and so would we all. I have been there and it makes you think, why bother? Christ is the reason that we bother. He is loving and kind. He is not easily provoked...1 Cor 13. Talk with your sister. Tell her you love her but that you are confused by her actions. Next time she says something that hurts, say, Wow, that hurts. Let her know that her words hurt you. If you haven't memorized Psalm 23, I would. Everytime she hurts you with her words, say, The Lord is my Shepherd, He is all I need. Keep going through the entire chapter and experience His love for you. It is more than enough.
God bless you on this journey. This is a journey and there are rough places but God has promised to hold our hand and walk through it with us.
God Bless you,
Faye

Health Crisis
Return to Original Post
Laura, fear will eat us alive and it won't change the situation, it only makes it worse. We never know what tomorrow holds but we know that God cares intimately about your needs and He knows better than you do the responsibilities that are yours. I pray now that God will heal you completely and that He will give you the strength to walk the walk that is before you with your children. I pray that you will see His intervention in every aspect of your life, not just in the healing but in the hope that you know that He is on your side. I love Psalm 56:8-9 You keep track of all my sorrows. You have collected all my tears in your bottle. You have recorded each one in your book. On the very day I call to you for help, my enemies will retreat. This I know: God is on my side.
God is on our side. That is the truth. Lean on Him. He will never fail you.
And don't forget to thank Him for His answers.
