fairfarmhand Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 What one need is in your life that I can pray for? I posed this question at our homeschool group meeting yesterday to the women at my table. I hope to remember them all in prayer until our next meeting. I was wondering if anyone else needed a prayer and a hug today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parrothead Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 The day is still young. We are good so far. You are sweet for doing this for everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k2bdeutmeyer Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 Aww!! How sweet and thoughtful of you! I'll just take a hug. It's my birthday and DH has to work all day and then has class from 5-10pm. I'm on my own all day :( And......DD is going shopping with my grandma this morning. To top it off, it's Election Day on a presidential year....blah. Sometimes, being an adult is no fun, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Impish Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 Nothing new...just that everything is ok w/this pregnancy. (In case you missed it, I go for an u/s on the 16th to ensure that it's not ectopic, and that everything is ok) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hsingscrapper Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 That is very sweet of you! I would be thrilled to have focus to accomplish the few things I set for myself today and the patience to deal with any barriers that may pop up.

(In case you missed it, I go for an u/s on the 16th to ensure that it's not ectopic, and that everything is ok) I'll also add in some prayers that you may have peace in the intervening days, cause I know you are rather nervous about the whole thing.

Rebel Yell Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 :grouphug: Thank you. I need to wrap up some things for the final week of a co-op class I'm co-teaching. I'm totally procrastinating on that. :glare: But my number-one ongoing daily prayer need is for local friends who actually have or will make time for me. I'm so tired of being at the bottom of everybody's list. I need a real live friend to have coffee & cry with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eaglei Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 This is so kind of you. We really need all the prayer we can get concerning finances (or more honestly, the lack thereof), and dh is looking at a probable job loss in the spring (funds are dried up and many people have been told it doesn't look good for continued employment). We're already going under with massive medical bills from the past ten years (ds' two battles with cancer). Suffice it to say my stomach is in roils most days over bills and money, etc...... Thank you for thinking to pray for others - even people you don't know - today it means even more to me to know that someone is praying.......

newlifemom Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 Thank you for praying! My dh needs a job. If it isn't asking too much, I would also like for there to be no insurance lapse between this one and the next one and [really pushing it here] I would really like to have good insurance again. [sigh] He will provide, He will provide, He will provide. :tongue_smilie: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 I'll share a praise report - my dd's MRI has officially come back as a benign tumor on her femur bone. We are praising God that it is benign. :hurray: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are praising God that it is benign. :hurray: Yay!!! THat is praiseworthy news, I'm happy for you!:D Thank you for the prayers, I could use them!! I'm running my first marathon on Saturday and I've been training since March. On my last long run (Oct 20th) I hurt my left knee. I haven't had a pain-free run since then and I've been so worried ever since then that it's going to start hurting during the race and I won't be able to finish. After running over 612 miles and 122 hours and 8 months of training, I might actually break down in tears if I can't finish the race.:( I would love any and all prayers on my behalf. I believe in the power of prayer! Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeekingSimplicity Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 pray that I find a job soon, since my husband is out of work and has decided not to look for a job. :( Really worried Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hsmomof2boys Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 Thank you! That is so sweet. :) I would like prayer for our finances. It seems to be one thing after another. When we think all is well & maybe we can have a breather (brain surgery for my son this year and lots of trips to doctors 900 miles away, which we are soooo thankful for); we then get home from our latest medical trip and last week our furnace control panel broke just 2 months out of warranty, and now this week both of our cars need repair work done. I know the Lord is in control and I have to trust him! We will get out of this financial mess, I know it. I appreciate your prayers! I will be praying for you, too, and for everyone else on this thread that has requested prayer. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HollyB Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 Thank you, fairfarmhand! We need prayer. My husband needs a better job. He worked 17 hours yesterday, and we still don't have enough to pay our bills. His health is deteriorating because of it. This year has not been good for any of us.

SorrelZG Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 I am preparing for my Naturalization interview (for my application for citizenship) on the 14th which we would appreciate prayer for (the interview and the preparations). The smooth and favorable outcome to this interview is one of the major hurdles between us and the mission field where we hope to be next year. We really hope that it will please The Lord to open this door for us but please pray for our hearts to be humble and accepting of His will either way.

gingersmom Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 Don't forget about all the people in New Jersey and New York and Connecticut without power. In my small town 3000 people are without power going on 9 days. Some people may get back power around Thanksgiving at the earliest. People are spending their days at any place that has power and heat and going home to freezing cold homes (its in the 30's during the day today). There is still limited gas (2+ hours wait) and two of our elementary schools have been closed for 9 days with no sign of them opening anytime soon.

J-rap Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 Thank you so much. This is really so thoughtful of you!

fraidycat Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 You are so sweet. I'm good here, as are my kids and hubby. However, if you are so inclined to pray for healing for my brother, it would be appreciated. I'm not sure if you saw the original post about his broken leg where he basically broke everything that holds his foot on to his leg, so he "dislocated" his foot - in a BIG way. Anyway, in the "great" Canadian medical system, he is getting the run around. Doc who did the surgery will not see him until the 15th of November - the surgery was over two weeks ago, and he's having trouble getting the other docs in his town to even change his bandage because "it's not their work, so they don't want to mess with it."

We are praising God that it is benign. :hurray: Awesome! Fairfarmhand, you are a lovely person! I know people are still praying about my cancer situation, but we could also use prayers that business starts picking up at dh's office. It's going on 2 years now that he's had a reduced salary, and we have lots of home repairs that we've been waiting to get done. Now our garage door opener seems to be malfunctioning, too. I will say a prayer for everyone on this thread, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

somo_chickenlady Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 My husband's sister's brother in law had a brain stem stroke, and is now bleeding in his brain. Yesterday he was able to move his limbs on command and could open his eyes and look around, then an hour later they couldn't get him to do anything and he has been that way ever since. They don't think he will survive, but if he does he most likely won't be able to walk or use his arms at all. If you could, please pray for him (his name is Tom) and his 13 year old daughter Amber. Thank you so much! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mandamom Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 Dh just applied to 2 different jobs (stocking over night). He hasn't worked in years and we're hoping someone is willing to hire him. Our van left him stranded and after tearing apart the engine has discovered the part (connecting rod inside the engine) that he needs might not be replaceable due to the age of the vehicle. He might end up doing an engine swap in the driveway. (He's done a transmission in the driveway in 3 inches of snow so I'm hoping this will be easier.). The new engine will be a junk yard engine that may not work after he installs it -- again no warranty. Good thoughts/prayers would be appreciated.

jenL Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 Thank you for being so wonderful to pray for everyone, fairfarmhand! I don't have anything to ask for since the needs noted here a far greater than mine, but I wanted to add that I will be praying for everyone's needs here.

Only me Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 Yes. Thank you so much. Within the past week or so we have found out that my mom has metastatic cancer and she is in a lot of pain. My father in law has severe Parkinson's and was put on a feeding tube today. My sister-in-law just found out that her dad has kidney cancer. I would appreciate all the prayers we can get.

LizzyBee Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 I could use an extra prayer that my doctors will find out why I've been feeling so bad and how to fix it. I have a thyroid biopsy next Tuesday morning, and another possibility is a worse than normal case of menopause. If the thyroid biopsy is negative and the thyroid specialist doesn't think the nodule is causing my symptoms, I think my next step is to try HRT. My oncologist says that my CML (chronic leukemia) should not be making me feel this bad, so I hope that means I am not going to feel like this forever! Thanks!
