Your prayers are really appreciated. My mum is feeling a lot better Thank you awesome ladies.

Can you pray for the poster I've be-friended again? Her H's job is at risk of redundancy bad timing here and they're still desperate to move and haven't found a buyer. Pray for favour with viewers and her H's job is secure. It's a bizarre request I know but I talk to her daily on mumsnet and she knows I/ we pray for her. Her neighbour is still being very very tricky too. Good job I don't befriend all posters, you'd have a lot of prayer requests from me Hope you guys don't mind...

Sorry to hear Mary about everything praying for you and everyone else's requests too

CaptainDippy · 17/05/2010 00:12

Popping in quickly while sitting up in bed in a Travelodge in Suffolk somewhere

Had a lovely w/e away at work conference with DH and DDs 1&2 - missed P loads though (with outlaws) Will be seeing her tomorrow though - when we commence our Center Parcs holiday!!! Really need this right now!!

Oooh, a blue one WeirdBird!! How exciting - and different

Night! Night!

Feel bad asking when I should be praying for all the intentions here. Really REALLY struggling with another Christian, and am finding it hard to let go and give up to God.

teaandcakeplease · 17/05/2010 11:46

Praying for you Mary, the Romans 12 passage came into my head: 14Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse. 15 Rejoice with those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn. 16Live in harmony with one another. Do not be proud, but be willing to associate with people of low position. Do not be conceited.

17Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everybody. 18If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone. 19Do not take revenge, my friends, but leave room for God's wrath, for it is written: "It is mine to avenge; I will repay,"[d]says the Lord. 20On the contrary:
"If your enemy is hungry, feed him;
if he is thirsty, give him something to drink. In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head." 21Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

Praying that you can forgive and let go, even if they never earn that forgiveness by apologising or whatever would be appropriate in this situation - that you can forgive regardless. It's very hard and I too struggles at times with this. Praying for you x

madhairday · 17/05/2010 11:57

Keeping praying. I'm struggling with all things church right now....seems so dry and lifeless and bloody hard work tbh. Having a somewhat off day about it all, would appreciate prayer!!
Praying for you Mary.
TACP, glad your mum is better. Praying for your friend.
CD, have a great time at center parcs, lucky you!

DutchOma · 17/05/2010 15:15

Just had a message from Kathy abut Morgan:- she was able to see him and hold him, he is a very beautiful little boy.
But.. he is not out of the woods yet, he had been moved from a high dependency bed to an ordinary room, but had to be moved back to sspecial care. This is difficult for his parents because they have to move rooms too.
Please pray that he will soon be allowed home and that the family can settle down.

ZipadiSoozi · 17/05/2010 22:47

Mary - Mary Mary, we always have time to pray for you, all the support you give to others, you are such a kind and loving lady, so big prayers winging their way to sort this problem out for you.

And to cheer you up 'YOU'VE WON' lol

Soozi

shockers · 17/05/2010 23:07

Just coming in to mark this thread as one I'm on. I'm too tired to read just now but will revisit in the morning... God bless all .

ZipadiSoozi · 17/05/2010 23:36

God will make a way
Where there seems to be no way
He works in ways we cannot see
He will make a way for me

He will be my guide
Hold me closely to his side
With love & strength for each new day
He will make a way.

MaryBS · 18/05/2010 08:23

Welcome shockers.

And thanks Sooz, I hope you didn't 'throw' the game to cheer me up! But thanks for your cheerful comments and your song lyrics .

TACP - thanks for your bible message. I guess the hardest thing is when its a slight against my DS rather than me. I guess Mary, Jesus' mother knew all about that...

And thank you everyone else. Keep praying, I've been praying for the intentions here. xxx

DutchOma · 18/05/2010 09:04

Somebody sent me a lovely hymn the other day, didn't know it at all, have never sung it: here is a snippet:

The very dimness of my sight makes me secure;
for, groping in my misty way, I feel His hand; I hear Him say:
"My help is sure".

teaandcakeplease · 18/05/2010 09:41

Lovely hymn lyrics

Oh Mary I didn't realise it was a slight against your DS rather than you. Oh that's a hard one isn't it? Praying for lots and lots of grace for you

madhairday · 18/05/2010 09:52

Please can you pray for my neighbour, A. She is 24 weeks pg and on bedrest, baby is engaged and she needs to have a stitch put in on thurs. They have said to her she may go into labour before that and if so her little girl prob won't make it. She had her first baby 10 weeks prem and he is doing great, so prayers please that this little one will pull through.

teaandcakeplease · 18/05/2010 10:20

DutchOma · 18/05/2010 14:48

And me.

M44 · 18/05/2010 17:07

Just popping in...I do lurk and pray for all of you.

Anyone going to the Bill Johnson conference in Bristol tomorrow? Do pray that it is well received. Thanks...

amberlight · 18/05/2010 18:43

Prayers continuing.

God moves in mysterious ways here: one path of autism work rather blocked for the time being, but two others have opened up. Praying that I have the strength and wit to make the most of the new opportunities.

weegiemum · 19/05/2010 08:54

Can you pray for me please.

I had a major depressive meltdown last night and now am not going to be able to travel to a conference I had hoped to go to in London, I'm too fragile.

I thought I was doing better, so booked 2 days away - this jsut goes to show I'm not getting better as fast as I should/could.

Feeling rubbish and very cross with myself for feeling so rubbish!

madhairday · 19/05/2010 09:25

I will certainly be praying for you. I am so sorry. Please don't beat yourself up. Depression is an illness and you can't always control when it's going to take a down turn. But I know how gutted you feel. Praying for comfort and peace for you. x

MaryBS · 19/05/2010 11:05

Praying for A, MHD. And for you too WM, have emailed you...

PositiveAttitude · 19/05/2010 16:07

Weegie Lots of prayers and hugs for you.

Amber Praying for opening doors and new opportunities

M44 Hope the conference was good

MHD Any news on your neighbour? Prayers continuing for her and her baby.

Mary praying for a light at the end of your tunnel.

Sooz Really needed those hymn words this week. Thanks for putting them on here.

Hi to Shockers

ZipadiSoozi · 19/05/2010 17:03

Just BOINGING by with prayers for you all!

DutchOma · 19/05/2010 21:10

Oh Weegie I'm so sorry, I knew how much you were looking forward to that.

amberlight · 20/05/2010 09:00

Keeping the prayers going for everyone as I read each of the messages you've written.

MrsCadwallader · 20/05/2010 11:41

Prayers for all, esp weegie and Mary.

A quick prayer for me please - exams are in less than 3 weeks, so revising hard with lots to get though. Feeling very tired and low the lat 24 hours but have scheduled break tomorrow. Please pray I will make the most of it and return to my books on Saturday with renewed energy!
