I wanted to move this over from Backyard Herds, as I know BYC is a very large community. Part of my goals for 2019 include more prayer and more praise to God, and I want to reach out to others as I reach to achieve this. I want to invite you all to make this a positive place- not just in seeking prayer help, but in sharing your praises also if you like. Do you need an extra prayer from your friends here? Feel free to post, and ask for prayer for your needs, or the needs of others you may know. Has something good happened in your life that you are blessed by? Share God's loving work in your life!
Also included in my second post are some resources for devotionals, tracts, and even ways to request a free Bible.

Since religious topics are to be posted here, I wanted to post something that just crossed my mind. I've been praying for God's guidance in showing me where I should join His work, and as I was doing something earlier...I felt a small tug at my heart in the matter of "prayer requests."
How often have you asked for prayer requests? So many times we do this, but how many people actually respond and pray earnestly for you? This is something that has always bothered me when asking for prayer help. No one responds back and tells me they've actually prayed, or offers words of comfort from Scripture. I want to change this.
What I would like to do is open communication for prayer requests- offering true prayer for you, and also providing back scriptural resources for your unique situation. This means I will actually say a prayer for you! I want people to feel confident that someone took the time to really say a prayer over them and their loved ones.
Please feel free to post here, or to message me privately if the situation may be delicate. I will not share your requests with anyone else except for the Lord. Please make sure to pray on your own as well- giving your burdens to God is trusting Him!
Keep in mind that God sometimes leaves unanswered prayers, because His will may be different. It may take time for the answers, or He may have something else planned. Remaining faithful in the face of adversity is a challenge, but remember...if we never faced rough times, we would not know how to be thankful for the good times.
Thank you for your time, and I hope that this can come to help at least one person here. May God bless you by His will!
