Hismusicgal -> Why (7/4/2008 3:28:32 AM)

Do I even bother posting God knows my problems and my family's problems. I am getting so frustrated posting prayer concerns and barely gettting any responses or hardly anybody reading them no matter what part of the forum or threads I am on. Sorry but I needed to vent. Over the last couple of months we have been through at least 5 deaths and several different family members in the hospital. Each time I post I feel just like I was talking to my actual family by being disregarded and left out. One of the places I come for comfort and seem to get little to none, thanks hahaha. Thanks but maybe noone cares about me at all family doesn't why should anyone else. I love God and I guess noone here on earth really cares about anyone but themselves. I wish I would go to Him Right Now but His work through me is not done here yet!!!!

Our Heavenly Father,

We ask that you bring comfort to her.
We give you Father ALL the honor, praise & glory that you so richly deserve.
In Jesus Name, Amen

praying for you



Keabird -> RE: Why (7/4/2008 5:35:07 AM)

How do you know hardly anyone is reading your requests? [:)] This one already has 15 hits. I logged in specially to let you know I pray for every new request on these forums - they are sent to me via email. Because I work full time I don't always have the time I'd like to login and post a response to each one, but every single one is cared about and lifted to the Lord. I am only one of many other people who pray through this forum this way. When I am off work, I am able to post more. I make sure I pray for them all, because I care and I know God delights to hear and answer every single prayer on this forum (and other forums like it) [:)]

I know sometimes I have looked at my own requests and thought, oh, not many people have replied, then I remind myself that the number of hits is far more than the requests which means there are people out there praying for me. They are praying for you too. [:)]

Father, thank You that You DO care about this person very much and many of us also care about this person. Please bless her tonight Lord, and fill her with the joy and strength that comes through the Holy Spirit. I pray for encouragement for her Lord, and renewed purpose. Thank You for her life, Lord, as she is Your precious child. I pray in Jesus Name.
Amen.



JMCrwd -> RE: Why (7/4/2008 7:43:26 AM)

people may not reply to your request for one reason or another but I believe that there are people praying over your request. Some people may not know what to say but they know what to pray, and we will be praying for you.



ricegirl -> RE: Why (7/4/2008 10:03:01 AM)

I agree with the others sometimes we get on and pray for the prayer requests even thought it doesn't show by responses. I want you to know I am praying for you and your requests. Please don't give up posting. If no one was susing the foroum it wouldn't last. I know how inportant it is to get a response I have felt the same way sometimes on the forums I use. ( Can't mention others forums here but I am on 4 different ones) I post on them all. I agree with Keebird look at the hits that will tell you how many people have read your post.

I pray this to You Oh Lord, in agreement.

dianetavegia -> RE: Why (7/4/2008 3:57:29 PM)

I read the prayer needs and also get them by 'subscription' but I seldom respond because I can't respond to every prayer need.

Sometimes I don't know what to say. Consider your mother's health.... She's almost 8 years younger than me and has suffered over 20 years with Lupus and all the side problems that come with that. Well, as a young mother working in the hospital, Lupus was the illness I feared! Also, I read about your mom having a stroke and think.... she's younger than me. How to respond other than

Praying for your Mom!!

In agreement Father, asking that Hismusicgal would feel Your love. And that she would be able to see the care of others around her. Thank You that she is on this forum. Father, she and her family have been through so much. Please help them and bless them and guide them. Than You Father for loving Hismusicgal, and each of us. Help us to love each other more and to show that love. In Jesus name. Amen



peaceofGod -> RE: Why (7/5/2008 8:42:40 AM)

Father,

Please lift up Hismusicgal with encouragement and with a special insight into your goodness. Shine light on the loving care that you have for her so that she can see it. Help her to see light. Help her and her famiy through these dark, difficult times of suffering in ways that we don't think to ask.
Help her beyond our requests in ways that you see will be good.

Please help Hismusicgal in every way that you see will do her the most good.
Help her to consider and be encouraged by the multiple responses on this Forum (written and otherwise) to her prayer requests...such as her prayer requests for her uncle, prayers regarding the passing of her grandmother, and prayers for her fractured ankle.
Thank you, Father, for inspiring the many responses to her requests...for the loving care of so many people.

Thank you Father, for all that you will do.
We pray for her in the name of Jesus Christ.
Amen.

Seeing the number of hits also is sometimes what bothers me were some can get hundreds or thousands of hits and other get a very, very, very minute portion of the hits or posts... just makes me sick.

Lupus is not a contagious disease! I can think of contagious ones that should be feared but- that is a different subject.


I want to thank everyone for the encouragement. I love God so much but a lot of times feel like I am left alone not by God but others here. God is awesome and great but some people still need the loving arms of those around them. We are a family with HIS LOVE we need to act as such.

ACE_dad -> RE: Why (7/6/2008 9:15:21 PM)

God knows your issues and he will take care of you.

Hopefully there will be enough responses to this post to help you to feel better.

I wish you the best and will keep you in my prayers.



dontbelonghere -> RE: Why (7/7/2008 2:17:01 AM)

Father God,
Please comfort and encourage this child of Yours.
Thank You for bringing to our attention where we need to lift up each other through boards such as this.
Please bring Your healing tough.
In Jesus' name,
Amen



wordsnpic -> RE: Why (7/8/2008 9:22:49 AM)

I pray for you, too. I know you feel like you are alone in your suffering. But many of us suffer in similar ways. I feel so alone in my thoughts and my fears, and I feel so much anger. When I spend too much time in the world (like with family over the fourth) I find this anger even more daunting. But when I come here, I realize there are kind gentle people with which to convene and it does my heart good. Know that you are not alone. Reach out to others and you will find that none of us are excused from the pain of life. I pray for you today and for all of the hardship for your family. You have certainly had your share. They always say that God will not give us more than we can bear, but I wonder... Bless you.

Lord God, I humbly call upon you in the name of Christ our Savior. Please look down upon your child, Hismusicgal and minister to her. Help keep her strong during her time of need with the loss of her loved ones. Also, please... help her to know that she is NOT alone in her thoughts and feelings and prayers. We all do stand beside her, just as we stand with you in your Holy Word. Give her the support she needs, and help all of us (even the most lowly of us) to stand behind her as she needs us to.

Please forgive those of us who have not been as prompt in offering our prayers up to people like Hismusicgal, too. As Christians, we are called to pray for one another during our times of need and our times of rejoycing. I ask all of this in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, our Holy Savior, your son who became flesh so he could sacarafice himself and grant us eternal salvation.

Amen.

I know how you feel. Sometimes, when you feel like you're going through things that are difficult, you want some prayers... if for no other reason, than a show of support from people you feel like you share an interest with. When you don't see that, its hard to keep going or to feel like anyone other than you gives a rip. Sometimes you even wonder if its because you're not that good of a person, or if its because everyone just sees your problems as insignificant compared to their own or other people's.

The important thing to remember is:

1) God will ALWAYS be with you in your time of suffering.

2) There are people on here praying for you, even if you don't always see it in your post count.

I don't know why some posts on here get more hits/replies than others. I do believe (or at least hope), though, that everyone who reads one of these prayer requests at least gives a little prayer for the person who's requesting help.

Hang in there, and don't be discouraged.

I love God with all my heart. As children of God are we not to act on His behalf? Are we not to be His body not just His hands and feet? I feel people are looking more at works not necessarily at how they are treating others within those works and that is some of what is bothering me lately.

I have been a christian since I was 8 yrs old and am now going to Bible College to go into ministry but sometimes when I feel like people are not listening to what has been given to me by God, I get frustrated and wonder if those that I speak to, ask questions of or prayer requests of don't listen-- why and how would a congregation. (Note: I am not a teenager!)

I thank everyone for your comments and prayers. I also thank God for giving us each other (no matter how frustrated I get), and this site to share concerns, praises, and just to talk.

Thoughts are on spot. I'm praying in agreement.
I've always considered 3 thoughtful replies and one ditto with 50 hits to be 54 groanings of the Spirit- and that seeing that from wherever it comes from to be an awesome statement of God's love for His people expressed from one to another.

In His awesome love,
