    Urgent need for intercession

    Security Forces have recovered 200 children being trained for suicide bombing. The recovered children belong to age group 6-13 and have been given into custody of security force, who have shifted them to an unknown place. Please keep this in your prayers.

    Returning, not really new

    I have tried posting here a few times, and was really starting to get into the site when all the major changes took place. It's really overwhelming here. I am wondering where I would post an urgent intercessory prayer request? Thanks. :)

    Christians in Japan

    The first missionary here to Okinawa, to my recollection, was a Catholic priest/monk, who got drunk all the time and made a mockery out of Christianity. American Christians were invited to come here at one point, and none would lay down their lives and come here to evangelize and share the...

    Christians in Japan

    I have lived in Japan for then most part of the last 15 years. Where I am, there are Christians everywhere! There are Japanese Christian churches, Filipino Christian churches, Korean, American...

    My friend I'm not positive is Saved

    She is getting a divorce. I am against divorce, but sometimes recognize people just can't work through things. He is not American and has a very different view of how marriage should be. He is also not Saved. Please keep them in prayer. They have 2 kids. They don't live in America. Thanks. :)

    I have had it. Eeeesh.

    LOL! I am too old now. My husband (see his picture as my avatar) is in the Air Force, currently deployed. The majority of Marines I have met here in Japan certainly do not put God first, sadly.

    Please Help!

    God never tells us to be self aware, or fix our own problems. He tells us to fix our eyes upon Jesus.

    My husband is deployed

    No. There is some kind of group through his squadron that I volunteered to help with, but have never been called back. It's way different overseas for dependents. :(

    Please Help!

    The very best advice I can give is for you to help him get his eyes and thoughts off of himself, and onto Jesus. I have lived that, I know this is the best solution possible. God will take care of him, will fix what needs to be fixed, heal what needs to be healed.

    Obama's compulsory military service idea.

    I can't help but think of the max Lucado kid's video, "You Are Mine", where people are trying to get all these stars to be someone important... the stars are the pieces of paper (diplomas) that you basically buy with your money and time, unless you get a scholarship, then it's just your time you...
