 I figured with the new year, we could start a new prayer thread. I like to write down prayer request and then incorporate them into my evening prayers! Please feel free to post! I would love to pray for you!
My prayer requests are:
For my husband (and all of our other military) who has 8 months left in Iraq. For the separation, the lonliness, etc.
That I may be able to find a job soon and be happy with it! 
For my brother who called last night and is having marital problems (contemplating divorce now). There is a 9 year old involved.
For my twin who also has marital problems. At one point they sought counseling, but since have stopped and still problems exsist. There is a 3 year old involved.
*Neither family goes to church and I don't believe either children have even been baptized (well, the 9 year old may have, but that is about it). Both of my siblings call me with their problems and I just listen and I don't know what to say, so I just pray. It breaks my heart! 
Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Waiting to pray..................................  BMW

"No matter how "right" you may be on various points, you must be diplomatic also. The first and important thing is not "rightness" at all, but Christian love and harmony. Most "crazy converts" have been "right" in the criticisms that led to their downfall; but they were lacking in Christian love and charity and so went off the deep end, needlessly alienating people around them and finally finding themselves all alone in their rightness and self-righteousness. Don't you follow them!..."
-Father Seraphim (Rose)
"Personal opinions have no role in ministry of any kind. When we represent the Church, then we ought only say and do what the Church has asked us to do. All else is wasted energy and an opportunity for sin. It is when we lapse into personal opinions, even when we dress them in the language of the Church, that conflict will arise."
- His Grace, Bp. JOSEPH

Reps: 318,381,050,261,786 (power: 318,381,050,266) | | | First off - prayers to all who have expressed need; through the intersession of the saints and the blessed Theotokos, may their prayers be answered.
Second - I could really use some prayer for safe travels back to my family. I don't have immediate access to an Orthodox Priest here to be blessed and give my confession to before traveling. So, if even just one of you could find a small moment of you day...I would be eternally grateful for your gift.
God's Blessings to all who seek out the power of prayer here. |
