I'm really scared. Recently, my family and I went to see a religious movie and my sister had to walk up and get out. Since then, she's been thinking a lot about death and dying, and she was hysterically crying before. My stomach churns thinking she might hurt herself in some way in the future, and my family doesn't have the money to get her the help she would need. Please, please, please, pray for her.

We will be praying fervently for your sister. 

God, you know what this person's sister needs right now and you know her situations. I just pray that you cradle her in your comforting arms and that you can use their sibling to be a light. Give her comfort and peace. Give her such an overwhelming sense of security in You, Father & give her rest. I come against any sickness, mental illness, or whatever else she could be struggle with for I know You are the ultimate Healer and Protector. I ask this in Jesus' name. Amen.

my friend is going through a really hard time right now, and i love her a lot and i dont want her to feel like this. ive been praying for her a LOT, but she turned away from God about a month ago. I want her to pray so badly but i dont want to get all religious on her you know? i dont think she would take Christianity seriously, she talks about what she doesnt agree with and she's very strong in her feeling against christ. pray for her pleasee it would help so much :)

We are praying for your friend and that she is able to find Christ again through her pain and tough trials. We also will be praying for you to continue being a light to your friend and to love her how the Lord does. Be there for her and pray for her. Let her know you're not giving up on her and neither is God.

Hey everyone, I was wondering if you guys wouldn't mind praying for me. Earlier today I had a talk with my boss and she's really condescending and rude and she can be really mean. Ive only been working at my job for about four months but she can be very disrespectful. Today she talked to me and she made me feel like an idiot. I know I should be nice and merciful but I really wanted to give her a peice of my mind. Can you pray that I treat her well and that I forgive her for how she treats me?

Hi ya! 

We would love to pray for you in giving grace to your boss and we'd love to also pray for your boss, that she can have more patience. 

Just try your best to stay positive and always have a reason to smile, even if you're being talked down to for no reason. I'm sure your boss will notice the positivity you have and maybe it'll rub off on her a bit and she'll become more sensitive to others.

We are praying for the situation!

I have a prayer request. Right now, I'm really exhausted. I'm having a hard time balancing school, doing something I have no joy in (I'm currently doing band, but I have to finish it out for the year), and I'm trying for flag football. I really just need some prayer for God's peace :)

Hi, friend!

We are always praying for you guys. So we keep you in our prayers.

I  completely understand where you are coming from though. The stresses of school and life can add up after a while and stress us out. I certainly have been feeling the weight of that. 

One thing I want to remind you to do is to not forget God in these moments of stress. I have a tendency to become caught up in the day’s activities and what else I have to do. Sometimes I need to force myself to constantly think of how much I need Christ to get me through my day. It humbles me and helps me believe that I couldn’t walk through my day without Him. All of it is possible through Him. Have faith that He will help you endure and that He has provided everything you need during this current time. Christ will help you through your day. He will sustain you. 

One thing I would ask you to ask yourself is are you taking on too much? Is there something you could cut out of your life to help you find life more enjoyable? I truly cherish my alone time and have to cut a lot out of my week sometimes just so I can sanely and humbly approach people and situations. 

Try and find joy in the midst of struggle. Find that joy to be Christ and cling to Him to help you through your struggles of school, enduring band, flag football, and balancing everything in your life. 

Most of all pray. Pray to God that you are frustrated and that you need your heart humbled. Talk to Him. He desires to know you every feeling, and know that it’s okay to convey your anger to Him. He knows it anyway. 

Force yourself to lean on God and you’ll find that your heart is actually drawn to God in stressful situations. 

Hope this helps!

Love, 

-Em

i'm having a hard time making friends at my youth group. would you guys please pray for me? thank you :)

Hey there! We will definitely be praying for you! When I moved to live with my dad, I had to join a new youth group which was really scary for me because I had been with my old one for almost 5 years and was so comfortable with them. Once I finally got up the courage to go to this new one, it was so great! I literally just walked into the person's house, went up to a girl that looked my age and said "hi I'm Maddie I'm new!" And she was so nice and it was kinda awkward at first but everyone was very welcoming and I made some great friends! Sometimes all you have to do is just walk up to someone, say hi, and grit your teeth through some awkward small talk for a great friendship to blossom! Not sure if that relates at all, but I am sure you will be able to find some good friends :) 

It is the LORD who goes before you. He will be with you; he will not leave you or forsake you. Do not fear or be dismayed.” Deuteronomy 31:8
