TrinityFrEak- I asked my 11 yr old daugher for help with this one, her name is Christina.
She said you should let her know that you dont want anything in particular, but you would love to have her prayers for yourself and your family.
Personally, I like to buy things for my 17yr old daughter Susanna's bf. I have bought him a Gamecube and backpack for school, and new Nikes, and Naruto DVDs etc. I enjoy buying things for him because it is my way of saying we like you in our "family" and we want you to know it. I think it would be really nice, if you think of something you'd like for Christmas, or birthday, that you might mention this to her. It will help her feel closer to you and that she can express her love to you.
I had a lady who 'spiritually adopted' me at 19yrs old. She was an elderly woman who was very holy and religious and she had been a missionary to china nad never married. She let me live at her home and made meals and stayed a few months til I found a place. She read me the Bible each day and made me mugs of hot tea (Russian Tea made with Tang and lemonade, served piping hot!) She told me that the New International Version is the best Bible, and I have had one ever since. Those memories with Dottie are very good and pleasant, as she cared for me and wanted me to love the Lord and grow in my knowledge of the Lord, by reading the Word of God, as I was not raised in a Christian home.
TrinityfrEak- I would ask her for a new Bible for Christmas, I would ask for a New International Version and tell her the missionary lady, Dorothy Huff, recommended it, and she was a missionary to China, and a very kind and loving lady, indeed. God bless you dear, Grow in the Lord Jesus, and grow in love. Jesus bless you. Amen.
God has blessed you for finding this prayer forum and I hope you will continue to post here on a regular basis for your needs, your families and friends needs and for all those who need prayer.
Lord, please bless this woman who has 'spiritually adopted' TrinityfrEak and let this woman know how she can bless TF, with prayers and maybe a new Bible or even a special present, like an outfit or perfume. Amen. Jesus, bless those who bless us. Amen.
