Bless my poor soggy dh working in this rain!

Hey Sooz! Hope your dh doesn't get toooo wet.
Praying for your niece - is she in Nottingham too?

Hey everyone! I just wondered if people could offer a prayer of praise up to the Lord for me? DD is still being a bit of a handful (she clearly has teething pain) but last night was reasonable so I'm not too exhausted today. Also, DH is coming home today! Plus huge thanks to God for providing a friend to come round and have a really good chat with. She even brought flowers, played with DD loads, gave DD some of her lunch and made DD laugh I can't explain what a blessing it is to have her as a friend. I keep on looking at the beautiful flowers and saying "thank-you father, you provided exactly what I needed and I feel truly loved".

thanks ilove8pm.

Flying visit. Could do with prayers, am meeting a potential spiritual director tonight. I pray God will guide my words and her's.

Praying for Mary, for Soozy's niece and her twins, giving thanks with Swaliswan for friends and flowers, praying for Paperchain, how are things with you sweetheart? I have been praying for you before you asked me and I'm sure that's how God works only much more so. He knows your every need and will answer before you ask Him.
Prayers for CC and her scan.
And give thanks with me for a pleasant day with my dd and for the help she felt I gave her. It wasn't much, the problem is vast, tiny house, lively baby who won't sleep so she's exhausted (what's new I hear you ask) and piles of stuff everywhere for which she really hasn't the space.

Message withdrawn

Praise God Podmog!

I saw the potential SD last night, and without going into details, don't think she is the right one for me. I may be seeing another one next week, but its in God's hands...

A shame, Mary - but like you said - In His hands. In His time. xx

Hot Chocolatey Sooz - Any news on your DNiece's twins yet!!!!!? Hope all's ok. You haven't emailed me back about my Q yet!!!!!! xx

Praying that you find a buyer for your house soon, Podmog - perhaps you should think about changing agent!!? Tell us more about this exciting church project!!

I have found a perfect (I hope ) job & I want it!!!! I am currently voluntarily Antenatal Bookings Officer for our local NCT branch ... the long and short of it is, all bookings for Antenatal Courses are going centralised as of the end of March and they are going to pay people to organise and book etc Antenatal courses covering the area in which they live and surrounding areas - It will be a homeworking position for 20ish hrs a week and it is just perfect for me and I know I would be really good at it! Downsides are, I don't know how much it going to pay atm and I think there is going to be a lot of competition for the posts ..... Advert comes out on Monday, so I'll be filling in application Monday night!! Pray. Pray. Pray. Feeling excited, but too. xx

Aw mary, sorry sd wasn't 'the one' prayers for 1 to burst into your life soon!

CD - what a wonderful job, I'd enjoy that sort of thing, fab fitting in with stay at home mummy! ooooooh yes chocolate NOW!

No news on dneic birth of twins, though dh family are a bit strange when it comes to communication!!!!!!

Friend just been round with loads of clothes her dd has grown out of, our house is bursting at the seams (4 year age difference) so lots of bags to store away for years!!!!! I'm not ungrateful, but........small house. Do you need any CD????????????

OOH Podmog, great!

Hello

MaryBS invited me to join, saying that she has had so much lovely support from people here, and suggested that I introduce myself.
I'm a mum of a teenage lad with dyslexia, I live in the south, am married, run my own business, am a school governor, work for the Church of England as a volunteer where I help to train the leaders on disability issues and other social responsibility matters (not least from the range of disabilities in our own household...). I'm going to try to have a read through so I can see what sort of things are already being prayed about, then hope to join in?

Helloo Amber, and welcome

Mary, sorry that she wasn't right, praying you find the right one very soon.

CD, praying regarding that job honey x

PC good to 'see' you, will prsay for God's peace and protection fo ryour family.

SS great that DD slept more, and thank God for your friend.

DO, great you had chance to see DD and DGS, and help them out.

praise GOd, seem (at least for the time being) to have got to the bottom pf what was annoying DD, and have had a lovely evening with her yesterday, and a really pleasant walk home foprm school today, have been able to enjoy her again, rather than just being stressed out by her if that makes any sense?

Hi Amber! {waves}

Hi Amber! Welcome to our wonderful thread
Praising with you Panda for you lovely time with DD. Praying it continues for a long time to come - you obv are cut out for running that parenting course!

Praying for guidance on your SD mary.

Praying too for that job CD! it sounds wonderful and right up your alley. Plus you already do it!

Continuing to pray over the situation with friend. No more posted (yet!) but am feeling very annoyed and hurt by it. Feeling infuriated that I can't do or say anything as it will wash straight over her. And feeling annoyed with myself for feeling bitter about it.

Could I please have some prayers?

Can someone please pray for Sabaidii and all of the families in SE Asia in very bad situations. Please pray that I can find a way to help these people the best I can.

Can you also pray for a friend of mine who is in a tough situation and could use some more courage to help her cope.

Hello all!

Sabaidii I will pray - SE Asia is somewhere I love very much!

Hi Amber! Lovely to have you here!
CD will pray for this antenatal bookings job. It sounds very good, doesn't it? Your voluntary experience of this role will be a good feather in your cap, I'm sure.

Podmog so glad that there's something exciting happening for you at church - praying that this will be the start of much happier times church-wise.

Mary - really praying for the right SD for you. Psalm 20 v 2 - "May He send you...support from Zion."

Huge prayers for me please - this morning I got a stack of papers from the CofE diocese, including a Registration Form (like a job application type form, but with some pretty deep questions in there too) and I've also got to write 4 pages about myself - my personal and family life, my faith journey, and how I got to the point of offering myself for ordained ministry. The bit that makes me panic like mad, is that I'm seeing the DDO (official CofE bloke) next Thursday, and I have to fill in the form / write the life story by Sunday pm so that I can send it to him by Monday (so that he can read it before meeting me).

And I'm leading the Sunday school this week, and doing a presentaion on secondary schools outreach (which I haven't prepared yet...eeek! Help me Lord!) And there are loads of little jobs I have to do tomorrow as well (such as getting a new bed into dd's room and getting rid of the old one) Help! So I'm going to try to do some of this written stuff tonight...please pray for el rapido inspiration!

Thank you sooooo much for your prayers. I so appreciate being able to come on here and ask for my own "support from Zion".

Hello Amber, also new and also here via MaryBS - God love her!

Quick Q - do you all pray as the requests come up on this thread or in one 'batch' at the end of the day?!
