I am having a difficult time. I am only 23 days into the new year and I have cried more this year than I did all of last year. Over the course of two weeks I've had a CT scan, abdominal and pelvic ultrasound. CT scan came back clear and the headaches have decreased. The ultrasound revealed that I have cyst on my kidney that needs to be watched. I go back for another ultrasound in six months. The cyst is labeled as "mildly complicated". My doctor assured me that if it were more serious she would refer me to a specialist right away. I worry about dying and I know I shouldn't. I don't want to get up in the morning because I don't want to face the day. Please pray that the cyst on my kidney would resolve itself and not turn into something more serious. Please pray that my weird head pains would stop. Please pray for my peace of mind.
mrselle, This is it...right here. "Peace of Mind". Choose to receive it for God's heart has promised this to you and He will never rescind it...take it away.
Choose to receive it, don't be afraid to let go and just trust Him for God cares so very much for you...God cares.
Sometimes we feel as if we are hanging onto mid-air and that at any moment we're going to lose our grip and just drop.
Let go... for God has always carried you upon His wings and has safely delivered you from and through every storm, every trial, every fear.
Elle... He loves you so. God loves you far too much to let you go. God says, "Sweetheart, please believe me... "I've Got This and even more, My Loved One, I've Got You
Elle, this is nothing compared to the love that God is about to pour upon you and to make it all better. The Blood of Jesus already has this covered and there are no streaks or misses in His covering over you. No gaps, no holes, no rips, no tears...He has this fully covered.
As Jesus cursed the 'fig tree' so has this also been done away with.
Fear not, Precious Elle...fear not. Bulls Eye ! ! ! God never misses.
Please pray I get my visa in time to travel to school. It is cutting it really close and I am scared.
My former boss is acting like the devil's little helper. He is trying to make my life hell and I am tired of fighting. I know the battle is the Lord's but I am exhausted. Who knew fighting for your dream was so hard!

Shiks... Trust in the Destiny that God has for you. He never misses a 'minute' nor heartbeat.
Do not fear the time of man, for humans always miss. God has this for you, His perfect timing. Trust Him, He has you too.

Hello ladies, I don't visit this forum often, but I have a friend in need of all the prayers she can get.
A few days ago, her 13 month old son suffered an freak accident and was placed on life support. Due to unrepairable brain damage, he was taken off support. This is her first and only child and she is devastated.
Please pray for healing and for her family in the coming weeks. Thank you!

Dear Heavenly Father, in the precious and honorable Name of Jesus, we bow before you and ask that you heal this dear little one and bring his life to the fullness of which you intended from the moment he was conceived.
Fill his mother's heart with peace to overflowing for your love for each of them in unending.
In Jesus' Name, we pray, Amen and Amen.
LiciaB... there will never be a storm that God is not in with you and For you. Remember when the storm cast Jonah into the sea and he ended up in the 'Belly of the Whale'?
As scary and frightful as it was, God was 'keeping' Jonah 'protected'. After 3 days and 3 nights, the whale released him... further into God's loving hands.
As for the storm you're in ...You're not in there alone, neither are you in danger. There's a 'rainbow'... God's Rainbow of His Promises...He's made for you.
There's so much more this... but for now, fear no more. God is protecting you, all the way through.

Thank you Shimmie. In my mind I know that He hasn't left my side, but sometimes my emotions take over. Some days I'm standing strong and others...crumbling.

I have been in a perpetual state of confusion and ambivalence since about May of 2013. I have been wavering about whether or not I want to stay in my marriage or move on and get a divorce. I feel one way one day then the opposite way the next day. I'm so tired of living this way and putting my husband through this. We've separated twice since last May. It's emotional torture. I feel paralyzed with fear of making the wrong choice and regretting it for the rest of my life.
I have asked God what do I do. I don't know if I have received a word from Him because I haven't felt any peace about either option--staying or leaving. Or am I not listening?
Please pray for me. I need God's direction about what path to take. I need to hear His voice.

foxxymami... you will make the right decision. In Psalm 46, God's Word says,
'Be Still.... and know that I am God'...
That's all you have to do, Precious One. all you have to do is 'Be still and know that God is God...for He is taking you by the hand to lead and to guide and to comfort you.
Psalm 46 also says:
"God is in the midst of her and she shall not be moved"...
God is indeed in the midst of your entire being and you shall not be afraid to follow and obey what He whispers into your heart.
Foxxi you will know.
In Jesus' Name, Amen and Amen.
I'm praying for you. PM me if you need me. This marriage was prayed for, don't give up. ((HUGS))

I just wanted to give a mini praise report:
About 4 weeks ago I asked for prayer regarding a pay raise. I was due for one, however I was unsure if I'd get it. I walked into work, waiting to have my performance review and it never happened! I was very disappointed at this.
When the day ended, I heard God tell me I had to endure a bit longer. I had no clue what this meant. So I went on looking for other jobs. A couple weeks later I finally had my performance review. The review went well, but when I brought up my pay they told me they would get back to me during my next performance review.
At that point, I got really mad! My pay was supposed to be assessed two months ago, and now you're telling me I won't get an answer until June? I was ready to leave when I walked out that meeting.
Fast forward to yesterday, I woke up early looking for jobs as usual. There were two jobs I really wanted to apply to but I ran out of time. My morning started off awful so not being able to apply for these jobs made it even worse. All I could keep thinking about was how I had no money and couldn't afford to live. My pay this month was drastically cut due to a new pay schedule being implemented. I won't receive a full pay check until February 14 (I haven't had one since December 20).
Before I left my house for work that morning, I cried out for God to please show me that things were about to get better. I had taken about as much as I could take. I walked into work frustrated with everything. Friday was just a stressful day in general. When I open my email, I see a message from my bosses. I got a raise! God is so good that I didn't even have to utter the amount that I wanted from them. He placed the exact value I wanted in their hearts.
I was not expecting this raise at all! It just goes to show that even when your prayers aren't answered immediately, God will come in right on time. And yesterday was my God came in and saved the day!

Asking for prayer. Just applied to a new school for my son next year. The open house was today. I fell in love with it and it would be such an amazing opportunity for my son. He's such a bright child and I know he would succeed and flourish there.

Empty Mangers
TGIF Today God Is First Volume 1, by Os Hillman
02-03-2014
Where there are no oxen, the manger is empty, but from the strength of an ox comes an abundant harvest. - Proverbs 14:4
When Jesus came into this world, He chose to be born in a most unusual place-a manger. It was no more than a livery stable with goats, oxen, and other livestock animals. There is a distinctive characteristic about a place like this. It is filled with odors and dung from the animals. God seems to work best among the unpleasantness of circumstances. In fact, "where there are no oxen, the manger is empty." What is this really saying? I believe it is saying that in order for Jesus to be present, we must invite those things that bring with them "messes to clean up." God works among the messy things in our lives. And from these messes come an abundant harvest. This is what He did with all His highly used servants in the Bible. God is filled with paradoxes. Why can't life be seamless and smooth? Because God likes to show Himself in the midst of the messes of life. This is what brings us into the harvests. So often the bigger the mess, the bigger the harvest.
When a major road-construction project takes place in a crowded city street, it appears to be absolute chaos. It is inconvenient, slow-moving and tends to get us irritated because it appears we are moving much slower than we would like. It is ugly, and so much of what we see is torn up. But when we look at that same area a few months or years later, we see why the construction was necessary. There was meaning to the mess. It actually made life so much better for those who would use the road.
It has been through the messiest of times in my business and personal life that God has revealed His power and strength in my life. It was when these "oxen" of hardship have walked into my manger that the greatest harvest was manifest. However, when I have sought to remove the "oxen" and rid myself of the odor and the mess, I have fought the ultimate work of God.
God works in mangers.

Divine. Your prayers were answered immediately but was 'held up' (remember Daniel)...Its what we do in the mean time that's important, you didn't give up on God in your frustration you cried out to him...Truly his eyes are over the righteous and his ears are open onto their prayers.

It's funny that you mention Daniel. My name also means God is my Judge. My prayer was held up exactly 21 days. That gives me chills! Again God is so good.
