GET PRAYING!!!

PA

Bouncing in

Prayers for all, especially the friends of WM

I've just finished a week's work experience with a local firm - it was really good Everyone was so helpful and friendly and best of all I feel like I actually made a contribution to what was going on that week. REAL work! Now I need to properly knuckle down to revision but at least I feel more focused now. Please, God, help me stay that way!

PA glad things went ok today. I started reading the Book of God a few years ago, but didn't get very far into it. It was a library book and I had to give it back! (I take an age to finish anything since I had kids and I was getting embarrassed at how many times I'd renewed it!) It was good though - one day I'll finish it (along with all the other hundreds of half-read books I have knocking around

TACP how are things with you this week?

Popping in to say hello. We had a great holiday and DS2 is sleeping loads better now, thank God!

I can't remember whether or not I've read the Book of God . I enjoyed "Paul" by the same author though - and it's shorter!

Praying for all, especially WM's friends.

Forgot to add my prayer request which is for Ds1 who is playing up rather since getting home, and for wisdom for DH and me in knowing how to deal with him without making things worse. Thanks.

Popping in to say hi and make sure I pray for everyone on here xxx

DH had his disciplinary on Thurs and it went very well . They gave him an initial written warning which will stay on his file for 6 months. I know that is serious, but not nearly as bad as it could have been. A friend of mine who does disciplinaries gave him some good advice and the union rep was brilliant. He said he was uneasy with how serious they were making it out to be and gave lots of reasons - they had to agree. So Praise God for that, and thanks for your prayers!

DH is now off work ill, though . He has bladder problems, has passed lots of blood, doc thinks kidney stones or infection (though infection is rare in men). It doesn't seem to be improving much even on antibiotics. Am also worried as he was trying to improve his swimmers in the hope of another pg So prayers for his health would be great.

Would it be possible to pray for a lovely lady I know who is having to undergo tests for angina this week and is very nervous about it? Her name is Ethel.

Praying for all. xx

Musicposy - praying for your H. Glad he kept his job and the written warning is only on file for 6 months! God is good, and with the union rep being there too. Hurray!

Blueeyeshadow - praying for your DS

MrsC - I'm OK, just need wisdom on how to deal with my H, I do need boundaries in place on how often he see's children. I think I'm being too kind and flexible, which on one hand isn't a bad thing but on the other he may get used to it and then in the future if I need to change the goal posts he may get upset. IYSWIM here?

Evening all

Oh WM, how horribly tragic about your friends Like someone said, our God is a God of miracles and if anyone needs one, it is them. I just pray for comfort and protection at this time as they come to terms with what has happened. Please keep us informed. x

So glad things have gone well with new Minister PA

Glad things weren't so bad musicposy! Praying your DH is better ASAP.

All ok here, just busy, busy, busy as always .... pooped .....

Evening all!!

Praying for you all.

Could you pray for my tooth again, it's causing me a lot of pain. I'm going to ring dentist tomorrow, I hate the dentist and would prefer my little mini miracle and the enamel restored on it when I wake up tomorrow. God's done bigger in my life, so whats a little tooth when it comes down to it.

WM Praying for your friends.

TACP Praying for your situation.

You poor thing Hermya! Hope you can get it sorted asap. Praying. xx

Just out of interest - any of your mummies on here be interested in a Kiddopotamus Piddle Pad? I'm happy to post it for free to whoever would like it. First come, first served

Prayers continuing, and prayers would be appreciated too.

Prayers coming your way amberlight, do you want to talk about it?

Hermya, praying for your tooth, you poor thing.

TACP...must be so hard for you. Praying for your situation.

Musicposy - glad it went well for dh. also will pray for Ethel.

Continuing prayers for all.

Not sure it would make a lot of sense. Me doing my autism-panic thing, mostly, and wondering if I will ever manage to explain things in ways one set of bosses in my life will ever understand through no fault of their own. Just such a struggle and I'm so scared of being punished for not getting it right.

You poor thing amber. FWIW I think you are brilliant

I've been to the emergency dentist, and they did an exploratory filling and I really don't think they've sorted the problem out at all. My tooth is still sore to the touch and I'm really getting fed up now. I'm hoping things will improve by the morning and it won't be sore anymore.

Amber Praying for you!!

My last filling, took a few days to settle and the tooth to stop hurting. Which I thought was bizarre at the time...

Hope all is well soon Hermya x

sounds really hard. Praying for you.

Harmya hope the filling settles down soon. It often takes a while, it did for me last time.

Hope you are ok today TACP.

Hope it settles soon!

I'm alright, felt very grumpy when seeing H this morning. We took kids swimming but I felt grumpy about everything and the way he's treated me etc. Obviously having an "off" day

Prayers for our marriage, it really isn't good, even my sister has accepted that its rubbish and that I have just got to accept situation myself, I struggle that I have gone against gods words and promises, what happened to 'in sickness and in health' it is mainly his problems that I struggle to live with, so I feel awful and guilty, but I just don't fancy him anymore, everything he does annoys me! I just ignore everything, luckily our lifestyle is like 'passing ships in the night' so dc don't notice too much, we don't argue, but I'm sure dc would be better off if we were happier people to be around, but it isn't possible to split up, can't afford it, and dh wouldn't be able to manage on his own, so am feeling very trapped and miserable, mainly worried about the dc though, and finding ways to live with what we've got, adjusting and trying to be happier! although during the daytime when dc are at school the floodgates open.

Please god raise my spirits, and teach me patience and knowledge to cope with dh's condition, its my problem not his!

I did go on a course a couple of weeks ago, it was an eye opener! and so many traits were brought home to me, I found it all very upsetting. I have lost my 'living in hope' for dh, just need to accept him for who he is and move on!

Sorry that was a long me me post, I don't know who to talk to though! I can't talk to family not even sister, my family don't do emotions! I would just crumble to speak!

Oh Soozi - I'm so sorry.

It's early and my brain isn't awake yet so I've nothing earth-shatteringly wise to say (not that I have when brain is awake either) but I will most certainly pray.

TACP - prayers for you too. I'm sorry, I ask a question and then disappear for days . I don't think anyone could blame you for finding things difficult, but God has you in his hands and all will be well.

WM still praying for your friends too. Any more news?

Prayers for you Sooz. I have no words of wisdom, sorry, but our awesome God knows how you feel and I will pray you will feel is loving arms around you.

Continued prayers for you TACP. You have been so strong, dont expect too much of yourself. An important lesson for children to learn is that adults hurt sometimes, too. So dont worry about your DCs seeing you hurting.

How are you feeling Herm?

Waves to everyone else.

I know it is tiny, but prayers have really been answered with my relationship with our new minister. Before he started we were concerned we would have to leave the church, but after a frustratingly slow start, but the last week has seen a lot of communication betweeen us and I am confident things will work out ok.

Soozi, prayers assured. And plenty for everyone else too.

There may be hope for the situation with one set of bosses I work for. I find out tomorrow, which is scary as I have to go to a meeting and then be ok enough to drive back again or get stranded 40 miles from home in tears and wait for someone to come get me. I think I'll be OK but a prayer would be lovely.

Sooz, I am here for you if you want to 'talk'. Praying for you...

Amber, praying for you also, if you need to talk also, because I know you'll fret, I am here...

PA - fantastic news about your minister , may it continue

Thank you for your prayers of support, I'm sitting here with what I think are palpitations, my heart races fast, I go light headed and my lungs deflate even though I seem to be breathing albeit shallow! bit frightening, so I've phoned a friend, and she is taking me out, I presume I am just panicking about home situation and working myself into a tiz!

I also apologise so much to WM heres me moaning away, and your friend is going through such trauma, my deepest thoughts and prayers for this family, so sad!
