Prayer List *if in need of prayer-post your request here!*

shawnapooh · 11-01-2002, 01:01 AM

When the Faith & Healing forum was put here I started a weekly Prayer List. I stopped doing it for many reasons but now I am feeling the need to start it back up. I am a prayer warrior and I really feel like it does me a world of good when I pray for others. I would like to start this again as long as nobody has any objections. If so please let me know. I strongly believe in the power of prayer. I have seen miracles worked in people's lives,mine included. Nothing is too hard for God.

Take care everyone and God Bless.

Shawna, bless your heart. You are so kind! DH and I are trying to make a potentially life-alterning decision, and we are really struggling. I would like to pray that God helps us make the right decision for our family, and to bring us peace with whatever we decide. Thank you. ((hugs))

Please pray for my dad, who was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer on Tuesday. We will find out on 11/15 if the cancer is localized or has spread.

shawnapooh · 11-01-2002, 11:03 PM

Lemon-dog-I pray that you and your dh can come to a decision that is best for everyone involved. It is always good to give it over to God. He always knows that is best for us,even when we dont agree.

Megpaw-I am sorry to hear about your dad being dx w/pancetic cancer. I lost my mom 11/5/84 to lung cancer which actually started out as ovarian/cervical cancer. Unfortunately,back then they didnt have the technologies and medical expertise that they have now. And didnt check to see if it had spread. I am going to pray REALLY hard about this because I know all too well the pain of losing a parent. Please keep me updated.

As for me,I am having a hard time right now. Me and My Dh Chad prayed once again for another baby. The good Lord blessed us with Elijah-Jakob who is now 5 mos old but we are feeling the need to have more children and expand our family even more. My lmp was 9/24/02,and I had a neg. beta on 10/21/02 but I have yet to start my period. Chad has complete faith that God has once again answered our prayers but I am having a hard time with it because of the fact that I had a negative beta. I am going to the dr Monday at 8am to see what is going on. Please pray that I will either get my AF or that I will get the news we have been waiting for (another baby on the way). Thank you in advance for all your prayers and support. Take care and God Bless.

I have a prayer request. I may have ovarian cancer. I go for further testing tomorrow. I'm still in shock. I'm afraid they'll have to remove my ovaries and I'll never get pregnant.

I drove straight to my church (it was Wed. nite prayer study) and prayed to God about this. My best friends prayed with me, and even looked up scriptures to reassure me. I am so blessed to have them. I didn't tell my family about it yet, don't want them to worry.

I just want to request that a prayer be said for a very good friend of mine. She had her baby on 11/5/02 and he weighs 1lb. He was born at 24 weeks because her liver was failing.

Thank you!

shawnapooh · 11-07-2002, 11:01 AM

April-Bee,
I am going to pray really hard that it is not ovarian cancer. Just keep your faith in God that he will get you thru this. I pray that they dont have to remove your ovaries either so you can continue to ttc. Please keep me updated.

CysterJen,
A prayer is being said for your friend. Aiden is living proof that miracles do happen. He is such a little fighter!

May God be with her and her baby during this difficult and uncertain time. Also please keep me updated.

Megpaw and Lemondog-I am still praying for you guys! I hope your gals situation is ok. Please let me know when you can.

Please pray for me as I have been somewhat of a "bad" cyster. I have a low tolerance for lying and bullcrap and I have been letting some people just have it with all I got. That is my bad temper shining thru. I am not passing judgement on them,just calling them on their lies. Well anyway,that is what is going on with me. I pray that all our situations get better. Take care Ladies and God Bless.

April_Bee · 11-08-2002, 04:47 AM

I will continue to pray for all my cysters. I appreciate all of the prayers for me. I am SO blessed by God that I have such wonderful support from my family and friends.

Last night I was crying and pouring my heart out to God over this. DH works out-of-town and I felt so alone. My cat knocked some papers off a shelf, and when I picked them up I noticed a "Our Daily Bread" booklet. I love these. The devotions really inspire and comfort me.

Well, I felt that I should read a devotion about peace. When I turned to the page the scripture that was listed was Mark 5:34.
"Daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace and be freed from your suffering."

Talk about a sign from God!! I just want to say I love Jesus and He has been so good to me. I know no matter what these test results are, I know He will be there with me.

I want to say to you ladies that I am keeping you in my prayers and thoughts and was wondering if maybe you can do the same for me. I am praying that my husband and I will conceive before the holidays, it would make such a wonderful present wouldn't it, if I could wake up on xmas morning and tell my DH he is gonna be a papa. Even if it can't be by then though, just anytime soon please. I guess what I really need is to pray for patience. Well I hope this is worthy of this post - thanks ladies.

I would love you to say a prayer for me. I have been dx with PCOS,but at the moment that is the least of my worries. I also have a thyriod lump, most of which are harmless, but I feel very unwell, and I don't know if this is the PCOS, my imagination working overtime, or cancer (which is of course the other possibility).
I have a CT scan next week, and another appointment with my Dr the following week. I don't even know when I'll know what it is, and i'm so worried, but am keeping positive for my dh and family. I must admit I'm finding it difficult to focus on anything else.

Please Pray for me........My heart has turned to anger and even hatred right now. This is totally not who I am and I just can't understand why I'm overcome by so much pain and anger!! Its been a few months since I've really recommitted my life to Christ and I've been putting this wall up to get close to everyone, including my husband, whom is also trying to help me both physically and spiritually by reading Gods word, and praying for me to get through these bad times.

I even got mad at God for having to go through so many trials at once, and told Him I'd rather go to hell and live a happy life here on earth (What am I thinking?? I know thats not what I want!!).

Since we moved from NY to Ohio, I've had problems with Dr.'s, the Insurance system here...because its mainly dominated by the SUMMA HEALTH SYSTEM...which owns most of the hospitals and dr.s offices. EVERYTHING is complicated with all kinds of referrals and complicated coverages. Then we just got a new foster kid here this past week and she's the first kid I actually feel hatred for..........I put that wall up and let my husband deal with her, especially after she called me a whore. I'm also wanting to have children of our own and am having such a hard time.......the further away I get from Jesus, the more hopeless everything seems.....I'm so depressed and uterlly tired!

CathyWood · 11-12-2002, 02:33 AM

Shawna-U know what is going on in our family...as I write my father in law is getting closer. The family decided to hang out at the hospital tonight in case he goes. I am at home..since i had to work and get things done in case. I will drive up in the morning to a family who is tired..and anxious..and have been at his side from the begining. I ask that we can all bond together despite hard feelings there may be. Pray that I can get through this since I feel I have already said goodbye but need to hold his hand once again. Hey, I guess this is a prayer!! Thanks...love you.

tschiss73 · 11-12-2002, 11:33 AM

what a kind and thoughtful thing you have started here, as some of you know I really need prayer for my marriage, I posted on the husbands board and I have gotten alot of responces, although I can't get enough prayers sent up for us. also our finances are in big trouble, I don't usuially ask for people to pray about that but at this point there is nothing elce I can do.... thanks and I will be praying for the other needs also.....

angeltears · 11-12-2002, 11:47 AM

Please pray for my mom who is in the hospital. She has pulmonary fibrosis and is having a very bad time breathing right now. It is so agonizing to watch her suffer. Please pray for her peace and comfort. Pulmonary fibrosis is a fatal disease that cannot be cured. I'm hoping that she will not suffer too much. She is a devoute Christian and has been the most wonderful mom anyone could ever have.

Thank you for all your prayers for her.

I am sorry that I havent replied lately but please know that my prayers and thoughts are with each and every one of you. Things have been very chaotic over here so please pray that we can get thru the "rough times." Still no AF,and this darn house we are fixing up is slowly draining the life out of me. I pray that God lightens the load of each of us,and make each day bearable. For those cysters who are experiencing a death of a loveone/parent my heart is with you tonight. I know how you feel because I have been there to. Take care and God Bless you all!
