Welcome to Gaia! ::

I really need some prayers. Last night, I was listening to some music, and then out of nowhere, my back started hurting, and the pain is just unbearable. Please pray for me. I'm hoping whatever the problem is, that it's not too serious. Thank you.

Pray for a girl in my church

she moved out of her parents house and into her sick grandma's house so that she could take care of her. Eventually her grandmother was put into a nursing home leaving her in the house by herself, then when she decided to move back into her parents house her mother said "no" Now shes completely broken and cant stop crying, and shes normally the type of person who is always happy and it actually pains me to see her so sad. I can see that her mom is trying to teach her to stand on her own but she hasnt even been out of high school for an entire year yet, i cant see why her mother is treating her this way. Please pray that God may keep her strong and safe through all of this.

I have a few prayer requests. The following is for the Mission Field in Peru. To start out: one family member from my Church, moved to Peru to start a Mission Field there.

The parent's name are Gordon and Betsie Wenger: and they have 1 daughter who's name is Elisabeth, which she is about 2 years old. They moved to Peru in mid-September, and is living there ever since. They write back to my church and I, every other Month and say how are they doing and what they need prayer for.

To spare a lot of details, they have a lot of stuggles and temptations they face with, everyday. Here is the whole chain of Prayer Request for the Mission from Peru:

1. Please pray for there health. They haven't had too many colds, yet. Praise the Lord!
2. Please pray for their faith. As I said before, they face many temptataions everyday.
3. Please pray for thrm to be a witness of the Gospel in Velille and Cusco (Their home town).

There are many prayer request that I would have to spend a lot of details on it. If you want a sample of the letter, and how they are doing, please PM me.

Next, Please pray for a member in my Chuch. His name is Joe Tindall. He is around 67 years old. He is going into the docters, soon. They think that he might have cancer.

Please pray for a person that I know online. I don't know her name, but she goes by salukisprincess. She have to go to the doctors. She might have a Hearing disability.

sad I will pray for you all! crying

I know this is long, but please bear with me sweatdrop

Why is finding a guy that I like, that I can date, and that likes me back so damn complicated?

There is the perfect guy...sitting right in front of me...he's sweet, considerate, silly, likes what I like, I can have serious or not serious discussions with him, is kinda cute, and I'm almost 100% certain he likes me back...sounds great right? Except for one thing that some of you might find trivial, but is very serious to me...he isn't of the same faith I am...The Bible commands Christians to be equally yoked...and he could be a Christian...but I don't know...I get so many mixed messages from other people on this issue that I really don't know...and its driving me absolutely up the wall. This is the one thing that is keeping me from dating him...and I'm afraid of talking to him about it, because I don't want to risk offending him...I'm thinking about talking to my Pastor about it, but I'm worried I'll get a flat "no, you can't date him" without further discussion.

For said reason, the past few days have been bittersweet. I've been spending a lot of time with him...and I find myself wanting to be with him more and more. We've been flirting...and I know other people have noticed, lol, and it's turned into more serious flirting than anything it was last semester...like giving each other massages, that kind of thing, and I can't stop thinking about him. Yesterday I almost felt like kissing him...

I've been praying since last semster about this, but I haven't gotten any kind of response that's in any way clear...all I've heard is "Christians are to be equally yolked" and I know that, and I want that...yet something about this seems so completely right. I would have thought that if it wasn't meant to be, my feelings for him would have died over the break, when I was praying about it, not seeing him for an entire month, and that life would go on, but if anything they've intensified. I want to hope that this is God's way of saying that its ok...but I keep worrying that its only temptation that I should be ignoring....I...I really don't know what to do. For those of you that pray...please do, if you don't...think good thoughts and hope I do the right thing...please...

Well I can put it bluntly here...he's a Mormon...and many other Christians have been telling me that Mormons are not Christians...and its not a "love thy neighbor" issue. I do love him. Thats just it. I mean I won't stop loving him as a friend...but I think I want more than that with him...a dating realtionship...but my question is what does God want? I can't seem to figure that out

One of my friends is really sick. It'd be really nice if you all could help me pray for her. I don't know much about how sick she is but she missed a few days of school because of it. Thanks and God bless you all.

heart Linda.
