Prayer Request May 2006
So many times in our lives the trials and tribulations become too much and overwhelming. Despair and hopelessness come rolling at us and there seems to be no way to survive. How wonderful it is to know that we are not alone. He is with us through all of it, carrying us in His protecting arms, giving us peace in the knowledge that He will provide.
Luke 8:24
And they came to Him and awoke Him, saying, “Master, Master, we are perishing!” Then He arose and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water. And they ceased, and there was a calm.

Despair... Hmmm... The story of my life...
Please pray for my mother... she has non-hodgkins lymphoma, cancer of the immune system, and has been fighting it for over six years I think... way past time doctors gave her.
I've decided to focus my May 4 devotional today on patience-- a virtue everyone needs to confront life's hardship and grow spiritually... I needed to teach myself again.

Ryan, take care, and may your mother sense the Presence of God.
Corry, what you've written for this month is so true. So many times in my personal life the trials and tribulations become too much and overwhelming. I have experienced despair, depression, helplessness and hopelessness , yet it's so fantastic to know that we are not alone. God's Immanuel - and He's with us all the time.
Thanks sis, you're such an inspiration and blessing to me.
Hi all prayer partners, I have decised to have a break for the next few weeks, so my posts will not be as regular from now on. I need to rest more, have solitude more often, and take more time out to be still. Would appreciate your prayer during this time of solitude, that I can hear God's direction and guidance for my life.
May God bless you all!
Father, i pray for ryan's mother. i pray that you will take care of her. give her peace and complete healing. i pray that you will grant her your miracle.
i also would like to lift up to you our dear sister, kitty. may she experience your peace as she goes through this time of solitude. guide her, Father and lead her path.
cover us all with your most precious blood, our Lord Jesus and i ask all these in Your name, amen.
Father, I pray for Ryan. He says despair is the story of his life. Only you know the whole truth behind that statement. May you comfort him as he watches his mother suffer. Lord, give him peace and allow him to feel your real love that you have for him and his mother.
Lord, help us all in blogland to honor you and to live peaceably with one another, not offending, but building one another up in that which is true and beautiful about Yourself.

Hmmmm.... I just got two different job offers in one day at week's end! So I hope may praise now might translate into something tangible this week. One employer pretty much told me I am hired. It was also good to hear from an attorney today, who said, "I was pleased to see your resume..." Anyway, I'm setting an interview this week. They are operating in several cities, expanding operations and looking for a legal assistant to head a local office, and this a good move for my resume as an aspiring attorney.
I think I want to save up, pay off my students loans, and go back to law school (which I cannot afford now) and get that Juris Doctorate. God willing I'm going in with my boxing gloves on and in His strength. I want to be an advocate, not a desk jockey but a real courtroom attorney one day! Constitutional law!
Though, a pastor has reminded me the Reformers Calvin and Luther were providentially hindered, and God took them from law to ministry. When I went to Pat Robertson's school Regent briefly in 2003-'04, I was bold enough to apply for their joint Law and Divinity program, though it became readily apparent that I could not afford either at the time. I often felt double-minded about my calling, and somewhat apt to take my friends advice that the do everything renaissance man doesn't cut it in the real world. You have to have some clear-cut direction basically. I will prayerfully seek God's will for my life in my transitional time as I accrue savings, pay down my existing student loans, and work for a law firm (if indeed that's where providence will lead me.) Though, I know of a lawyer now that is about to finish seminary and get ordained. In the end, I say not my will be done, but His. I hope I will become perceptive of God's perfect will for my life, and seek it earnestly through His enabling. "If God be for us, who can be against us?"
I will try and do another pulpit sermon this year in any case. I've come to realize God has given me a ministry right now-- and it's not about credentials, but embracing discipleship where we are now. God has a place for everyone in the local church (male and female) to serve in some capacity.
I've got quite a bit of growing to do before I handle tasks of spiritual leadership. I want to learn servant leadership. And I know there are no spiritual plateaus in life, we've got to keep climbing higher and higher.
(Oh! Sorry this is a long message ;-) I type fast, have a big mouth and brevity is not one of my strong points... I study law after all.)
i'm currently reading Jane Eyre. I saw it on your favourites. I like your blog here. I just want to ask you to pray for the two miners in Australia who have been trapped down in the mine for 13 days. I'm not sure if you've heard anything about it. Our nation is hoping they'll be out today, but it keeps getting interupted with complications. God Bless you!
Just wondering if there's any thing abt "the wrath of the lamb" and the 7 years tribulation mentioned in bible.
Father, we lift up Ryan to You. May You guide and lead him, show him the doors You would like him to go through. Watch over Ryan's mother and stretch out Your healing hand to her. Strengthen all in this situation.
Father, watch over Kitty. Please give her the rest and the guidance she needs and refresh her with and in Your everlasting love, presence and provision.
Father, bless the attempts of the rescue-workers to be succesful and without any further complications. Strengthen the miners who are trapped, may they be rescued as soon as possible, and comfort them and their family in the knowledge that You will provide.
Father, we ask You to watch over Pia, bless her today and grant her the visa she is longing for, so she can be with her husband.
In all of these prayers, we seek Your guidance and leadership. You know what's best and what's needed. Please, grant all of our prayers, according to Your will. In Jesus' precious name. Amen.
angelyx,
you might want to go here to pose your question:-)
God bless you.
Please pray for our dear sweet sister Pia. Her visa was denied again yesterday.
Father, please comfort both Pia and Jec, give them peace knowing they are not alone. That You are with them through all of it, carrying them in Your protecting arms. Encourage them with the knowledge that You will provide and see to their every need. Fill them with your love and may the knowledge that You are ever-present keep them strong and of good courage. In Jesus' precious name. Amen.
Dear Heavenly Father
Thank you so much for answering our prayers for the trapped miners in Beaconsfield, Australia. Messrs Todd Russell and Brant Webb had just been rescued. A miracle had just unfolded. We give you all the power, honour, glory and praise.
Thank you, Jesus.
Thank you, Lord.
Oh Lord! Please be with Pia and Jec at this very moment. There are alot of questions now. There are alot of disappointments too. We don't know why. But we know that You are our Almighty God who takes care of every minute detail in their lives. Oh Lord! We're crying out to You to comfort Pia and Jec.
Thank you, Jesus.
Thank you, Lord.
In Jesus' most precious name we pray. Amen!
Greetings in the name of our mutual Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I'm happy to accept an invitation to join this prayer forum. I appreciate the spirit of charity and warm reception.
A pastor once told me that ministry is praying for others when we need prayer. How true that is.
I've been broken, and God got me where he wanted me through heartache, trials, and afflictions, and he is still molding and making me. Without God's blessing I look for no success, and I can do no good works and accomplish nothing apart from his grace. Anyway,
I want to set my sights on God's promises- let the past be the past, and move forward in victory.
Thank you for your prayers. May our Lord bless you all richly that you might grow in His love and grace.
Ryan
"I have a tender reliance on the mercy of the Almighty, through the merits of the Lord Jesus Christ. I am a sinner. I look to Him for mercy; pray for me."
—Alexander Hamilton, July 12, 1804.
Dear Father God, please embrace Pia and Jec with Your great love. They need Your help, Your strength, and answers. Please look after them, and make known to them Your amazing grace and mercy in this time of difficulty and disappointment.
Thank you Jesus for brother Ryan. His commitment to you and faith is really encouraging! I can truly identify with him in terms of being broken and having gone though trials in life. Yet Your grace is also sufficient for us. I pray that you'll continue to mould us and make us. May You bless Ryan and everyone of our prayer partners here.
Thank you Lord for the opportunity for us to love one another through prayers.
In Jesus' name, Amen!
For we know that if our earthly house, this tent, is destroyed, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed with our habitation which is from heaven.
—2 Corinthians 5:1-2
