God of love and grace, we are full of questions. We wonder why suffering happens to us and our loved ones. We wonder why you let addiction take control of our lives. Fear and worry can consume us. Give us faith to acknowledge that you love us in every moment and hear the prayers we humbly offer:
1) Tuition, tuition, tuition for my _____ for this semester and the coming 3 years.
2) A summer job/internship opportunity for _______
3) That I may learn to find respite in my days so that I won't get easily "burnt out" in my day to day responsibilities.
4) Provision for those who have been victims of natural disasters: Haiti, Japan and Chili
I'm struggling with my understanding of God and his role in pain and suffering. I am currently working at CcTC with kids from rough, challenging environments and situations. I keep hearing about God being loving, great, and good, and yet there are kids starving, being abused, and worst of all, not feeling loved. Why? Why does God let this happen? Does God have any control over it or, to the contrary, does he arrange it to happen? Does suffering teach us something? What can I do? Physically? Emotionally? Spiritually? Is there anything? When I fail. Then what....?
My prayer is to ask God to watch over my sister as she has a job of getting back on track with her house payments. I also need God's help with my business as I try to get things back on track after a rough month. In Jesus Name I ask these things in prayer Amen.
To get closer to God
I am angry, without education, I might have had the wine instead of grape juice.
6 mos. 17 days sober. I am afraid to die. People have already expressed to me their verbal hate threatening my life. People believe I bluff about my family, especially my _____________. I keep listening that there is a law that is in place for my pursuit of happiness. I have no hospital or medical attention to liberate my freedom to breathe, move, live. I love Jesus. He is my life. People refuse to accept that Jesus accepts me. I want to live and need Jesus. I need to see me.
To figure out who I am in this journey. To do that while keeping those I love a part of the process even though I am far away from them.
Jesus. I need, rely, and depend upon you walking with me – I submit myself to your grace. Remind me of your constant mercies every morning. Let your Holy Spirit guide me all day long. Give me a sense of your presence with me. Change me, mold me, make me your own. Amen.
Spirit, bring your healing to ____, ____, ____, ____, my Mom, ____, ____, ____, ____, ____, ____, ____, ____, ____,____....and so many more whose names I don’t know. Bring healing, comfort, wound-tending, new-new-new life. Sustain him…empower him to seek out happiness.

I am afraid that my life is empty. I throw myself into work, and it is good work, but I don’t want to say at the end of my life “I worked.” Merciful one, take this fear from me in order to open my hear to those around me.
Direction, passion, peace, and some small bit of stability.
Is my MOM o.k.?
I am afraid. Jesus, please walk beside me and help me to have the wisdom to guide my child on the path of empowerment.
God of love and grace, amidst our suffering, we turn to you. You offer us comfort, support, and hope. Although we do not have answers, we know that your love knows no bounds and holds us close. Give us peace and help us share your peace with all who we come into contact with.
