Prayer request

[Boomygrrl]

I enjoy posting on Christian Forums, but I feel more doubtful than ever before.
I used to be a Christian, loved the Lord. Now, I'm not even sure there is a God. This isn't due to the Christian forums. I have been doubtful for many years. Now, however, I'm getting to a point in my life that I just might have to give up my search for God.
I don't know if I'll stay an agnostic, become atheist, or believe in God. I don't know if I'll ever be a Christian again.
Emotionally, I want to believe in God. Logically, it seems like God is unlikely. I am so exhausted trying to find God, understand God, etc. I am getting to the point that I need to take a break.
Please pray for me. If there is a God, hopefully he/she/it can reveal to me. I think I need something more than debate, discussion, and analyzing everything to death. I honestly think I need God to directly communicate with me, or to send a messenger (human, angel) to talk to me in a way that it just clicks for me.
Scriptures, discussion, my prayer, none of that is working. So, partially, I give up. If you can pick up the slack and just pray for me occasionally, I'd appreciate it.
If nothing comes of it, well maybe that's fine. Maybe God doesn't want me to believe. Maybe I just cannot. Or maybe there isn't a God. I don't know. But emotionally, I hope something happens. I really do.

Thanks,
Boomygrrl

A Prayer for the Gifts of the Holy Spirit

Holy Spirit,
Divine Consoler,
I adore You as my true God,
with God the Father and God the Son.
I adore You and unite myself to the adoration
You receive from the angels and saints.

I give You my heart
and I offer my ardent thanksgiving
for all the grace which You never cease to bestow on me.

O Giver of all supernatural gifts,
who filled the soul of the Blessed Virgin Mary,
Mother of God, with such immense favors,
I beg You to visit me with Your grace
and Your love and to grant me the gift of holy fear,
so that it may act on me as a check to prevent me
from falling back into my past sins,
for which I beg pardon.

Grant me the gift of piety,
so that I may serve You for the future with increased fervor,
follow with more promptness Your holy inspirations,
and observe your divine precepts with greater
fidelity.

Grant me the gift of knowledge,
so that I may know the things of God and,
enlightened by Your holy teaching, may walk,
without deviation, in the path of eternal
salvation.

Grant me the gift of fortitude,
so that I may overcome courageously all the assaults of the devil,
and all the dangers of this world which threaten the salvation of my soul.

Grant me the gift of counsel,
so that I may choose what is more conducive to my
spiritual advancement
and may discover the wiles and snares of the tempter.

Grant me the gift of understanding,
so that I may apprehend the divine mysteries
and by contemplation of heavenly things detach my thoughts
and affections from the vain things of this miserable
world.

Grant me the gift of wisdom,
so that I may rightly direct all my actions,
referring them to God as my last end;
so that, having loved Him and served Him in this life,
I may have the happiness of possessing Him eternally in the next.

Amen.

Lord, I love you so much! I am lifting Boomygrrl up to you right now. I pray that you speak to her, Father, just reveal yourself to her. I know how hard it is to believe, and I just pray that you help her to realize that a relationship with you has nothing to do with logic, Lord, because you are not logical.... you are so much more than that! You can do things that the most intelligent human being could never even imagine, let alone try to explain. Help her to find faith! Help her to understand you and your ways, Lord. I know that in her heart she knows that she needs you, or she wouldn't come asking for prayer, and I thank you for that. Now I pray that you water that seed and help her to grow into a strong faith, Lord. I pray that her heart longs for you, Lord, so bad that she can't fight it! You're so wonderful, Father, and so beautiful! Thank you for being all that you are. Bless this girl, Lord, as she trys to find you. I love you so much! In Jesus' precious name I pray. Amen!

Please please dont give up! this is exaclty what the devil wants you to do....he knows that without god we are weak so he plays on your weakness....i know its hard..believe me i have been there....and there are so many times you just want to run away screaming cause you dont want to have faith anymore...but these are the times when god is standing there with open arms pleading with you to have faith in him! He is asking you in this time of doubt and struggle "will you still seek me?" "will you still have faith?"
I've recently had that moment in my life and it lasted 6mths! and yes i was so tired! but although apart of me wanted to give up...i just said you know what...ok god...i give it all to you, my life, my heart all of me and pray that you see me through. And he did...god is waiting for you to give all your trust and all your faith to him and he will shower your life with so much glory..as he did to mine. Thoughts like god isnt logical or doesnt seem practical are exactly what the devil tells us..because he knows we are humans and of course the creator of the universe, the alpha and the omega...of course he is bigger than us all - he cannot be defined by our human logic...he is GOD! Just the thought of his love for us or his grace blows our minds...we mere humans cannot contain or define him. Please dont stop seeking him...please dont stop going to church - find someone who is wise in god and talk to them - tell them...tell god how desperatly you want him but you are weak and tired of searching....draw on his strength! You will come through this! and you will come through it in his arms. Remember he has never left your side! not for a second.

If God revealed Himself to you...then where is your faith in all of this?

You see, God already has revealed Himself to you. He is in everything decent and everything good. The scriptures tell us that God turns His face to bad...

So God is in His creations...the trees, the brooks, the spring flowers...

And His greatest creation of all...'YOU'!!

When you are walking by a person and this person smiles at you and says God Bless...consider that the Body of Christ as well is a sign of God.

Prayers that these words might reveal truth and that your heart in which Christ has written upon might come alive again with the love He has for 'YOU.'

boomygrrl,

I lift you and your struggle up in prayer.

You asked that God send you a messenger. And someone to pray for you.

Lets try something else. Let us pray together.

Father God,
You know the struggles I have faced.
You know my doubts. Please help me to be more willing to listen when you send the messengers that you send to me. Help me open my ears that I may hear.
Father remove from me my doubts of your existance.
Amen.

There sure are a lotta "I"'s in that post..
Perhaps taking your eyes off of your "I"'s, and placing them on Jesus is in order!

Praying for Him to keep you in His Love!

Father i pray for Boomgrrl,

Father right now i pray that touch your daughter. Right now in the name of Jesus. I pray Father, that you bring a strong anointed christian man or woman into her life and show her that You Lord do exist and that you love her. I believe that Boomgrrl is crying for answers and Father i pray that you give her the answers that she needs to hear. Father, You say in your Word that You "never forsake us or abandon us." And you Father stay true to your Word so I pray for Boomgrrl to not let go of her faith but instead to hold on to it.

Boomgrrl, I believe that God will speak to you either to you personally, through the Bible, or through other people. However the Lord speaks to you,you will know that it is God and that does He cares for you.

Boomgrrl,
God loves you so much beyond measure. He loves you so much that He died on the cross for you so that you may live. Holy Spirit just touch her with your sweet spirit and let Boomgrrl know that You love her and that she needs to stay strong in You!

In Jesus name,
Amen!

Father,

I ask for the spirit of disbelief to be lifted! and for your soul to enter into our sister. Teach and guide her into all your Truth Lord and reveal to her your mysteries that are only given for those who truly seek you with a Heart of Love. Let her Heart be filled with your LOVE, PEACE, JOY and LIGHT! I believe and receive this for her. Thank you Lord for dying for us and thank you Father for raising your son our Saviour on the Third Day and forever defeating DEATH! In Jesus name I stand boldly in this prayer and in your love Amen.

JESUS IS LORD! Hooray!

Lord, awaken her spirit, and allow her to hear your voice.

I find that reading the Bible brings connectivity back to me quickly... sometimes that seems obvious and sometimes it seems unlikely, but it does work. The Psalms are a comfortable place to settle into.

Stop by different churches and see if one of them gives you a sense that the Spirit of God is filling the place, or the people truly believe in prayer's effectiveness. If you can find that, hang onto it long enough to get a grasp.

Feel free to PM!

Lord, pray for Boomy that she will see You in na real way in her life. Guide her and teach her Thy ways. Let her know she can feel after you Lord. In Jesus' name.

 

[ivory]

Father, I ask that You send Your Holy Spirit into Boomy's heart so that she maybe able to repent. Draw her near to You so she may feel Your presence. Remove all doubts from her mind, and allow her to rejoyce in her coming back home to You. In Jesus Name. Amen.
