prayer warriors (following Jesus Christ, everyone welcome)

I think it's important to add prayers of Thankfulness to the Google Sheets as well. What do y'all think?

Absolutely!

This is absolutely lovely and so well said when I was younger, I loved going to church, the harvest festival, alkinds, I was really interested in learning. Until I had a family member who started pushing me, saying if I wasn’t baptised, then later on, if I don’t have the kids baptised, god would spurn us and we would rot in hell for eternity, we would never meet Our Lord, never meet up with loved ones who had passed it was quite shocking and I thought…if following god makes you like that, that’s really not for me. A lot has changed since then and I’ve realised that is not the norm. I’ve had a lot of kindness shown to me, the church took my son to Lourdes, and everything since then has been positive, I wouldn’t say I’m 100% there just yet, but I’m getting there. Reading things like this just makes me feel more positive thank you.

Thank you for this, @Mrs J , I'm glad you were blessed. I hope you have forgiven this family member, as Jesus said, "Father forgive them, for they don't know what they are doing." I'm glad that prayer covers me as well!

I absolutely have, and I’ve come to realise as time has gone by, she was alcohol dependent, so I understand now..it’s not for me to judge her, she has her own battles going on. And part of her recovery is…as long as she has Our Lord, she has hope, Footprints is her favourite. I absolutely get it It’s comforting to read this thread, to see all the kindness and love…it does give me hope.

Has anyone else lost access to the Prayer Google Sheets?

Yeah, sorry. I won't mess with the privileges anymore, but it should be okay now

The same has run through my family. Its hard for non-believers to believe if they see a supposed "believer" not living it out. Its a sad reality, really. But then again, a lot of my church members are like family. I do miss a lot of them, since I moved churches this year, but those people have made a lasting impact on my life. Welcome to the Prayer Warriors thread! I don't believe I have welcomed you yet!

I know a girl who is not doing good. She has liver failure and Covid-19. I need as much prayer warriors as possible. Thanks in advance. *Edit* I just learned that my Grandma has covid. Please pray for her too!

Oh no! Praying!

 

[cherrynberry]

I hope this doesn't seem silly to you but I've been praying and I hope you will too....
Will you pray that my rabbit will be pregnant? My partner and I have been trying hard, and I don't know what we'll do if she's not.

That is not silly at all! Praying!

Thank you it means a lot! It is a tough journey, but I believe it is a lesson and I definitely have more empathy now, I believe everything happens for a reason. It’s funny the way everything always falls into place, I am coming around to the fact…their is a very special man upstairs, who has it all under control.

Hello Art! Do you happen to have an update on them?

I haven’t heard any updates on them. I’ll post if I do though,
