Hi All,
I do really hope whoever read my message could pray for me.
For some people probably it's not a big problem, but for me, as a female, it's really a big one. Recently after I went back from my holiday, I have so many acne and whiteheads, I have used so many products, eat healthy and went to the dermatologist, but it's still there. I pray for this everyday, all the time, hope that God, the only one could help me. I know He is the healer, He is almighty, but up until now, I haven't seen the miracle. I want to keep believe that he could heal me. I know it's so silly. Some of you might think it's really stupid. But for female, it's really hard. Especially my colleague keep teasing about my face and my boyfriend will visit me next two months. I feel really embarassed. The only one who could heal me now is only God.
Brother/ sisters, could you please pray for me? Please help me, encourage me with you words, please?
I do really hope someone could reply me. I'm really desperate now.

Thanks a lot Keabird :)
To be honest, I feel really ugly, I feel disgusting everytime I look into the mirror. There are so many pretty girls around me. Sometimes I feel it's so unfair, but I try not to think about it and be more grateful. It's hard to apply though.
O God, my Lord, help me to pass through this. Give me the strenght

Many people have problems like this. And of both genders.
The Lord sees you as beautiful.
You should tell yourself that every day when you look in any mirror.
What you say to yourself is between you and God.
Just because my mouth isn't moving, I still tell myself I'm beautiful and it's a gift from God every day.
We thank You that we can bring any request to You.
We thank You that nothing is too small or large for You to solve.
We ask in Your Name amen

God, your Son, Jesus Christ, once told us "Ask and we shall receive." Please look down upon Chloe_square at this time as she asks you for help with her skin condition. Please grant her the physical healing that she is asking for, Lord. Also, please help her to deal with the pain she feels from those around her who are giving her grief about her issue. Its not funny, Lord. You know that. Please show mercy to those who have tormented her and help them to realize the embarrassment and anguish they are causing so that they might repent and refrain from their acts. Grant chloe_square peace and healing from the mental pains they have or might have caused her. Also, help her boyfriend to be kind and loving, as you call all of us to be to one another. I humbly ask all of this in the name of Jesus Christ, who died upon the Cross for our sins.
-Amen.

Father, I lift up Chloe-square to you. Lord, you know the condition of her skin. Help her with choosing skin products that will promote healing. Help her with dietary issues to help her skin. Lord, please touch her skin and if it's your will, heal her skin completely. Thank you Jesus.....Amen

Lord, I lift up chloe to you, please bring her a miracle and heal her from these blackheads and acne Lord. You created her and she is a beautiful person, please bring her peace and happiness Lord. Please let those who have teased her or bothered her about this just stop it. It is wrong to judge others and to pick on another human being is just plain immature! Please Lord, be with chloe right now, when she looks in the mirror, she will see a beautiful beautiful person!!
chloe, have you tried that product Proactiv, I see so many people use that stuff and they say
that it really does work. You can order it online, maybe give this product a try. I know you have tried alot of stuff like you mentioned, try one more....
I am praying for you!!
amen

Hi all,
Thanks a lot for the prayer, I really appreciate it :)
This morning when I came to work, my colleague was saying it's getting bad. I'm really sad now and I asked him to stop mentioning it in front of me as it makes me really down and sad. Another news I got today is my boyfriend is probably coming back this week. I really don't know what to do.
Thanks, Itlyn1kc, I don't think I'm going to try the pro activ, I'm allergic to Benzoyl which is in the pro activ. but thanks anyway.
Please support me with your prayer. I am waiting for the miracle. Actually, as I'm really desperate, I'm thinking to get the laser surgery. Is it a sin to have a laser surgery? I'm afraid they have a side effect later on.

Praying for you too hon. Really so many people have dealt with this problem; you shouldn't be embarrassed. I do not think it is a sin to use laser therapy but I would get in touch with a dermatologist and ask him/her what they would recommend. Also ask about using Retin A (Tretinoin). I don't know how old you are but if you don't know the story behind it it was used for acne and then people started noticing it also took away their wrinkles! It's the acid form of vitamin A. (I used it for awhile; shhh! ;)) I also saw some people were using a cream derived from niacin (B3) for acne with what seemed to be mostly good effects:
http://www.acne.org/nicotinamide-reviews/341/page1.html
Scroll down a bit where they talk about the cream/gel. I saw some favorable conclusions on pubmed about this treatment too. But ask your doctor/dermatologist if it's right for you of course.
As for your coworker he's being a jerk. Maybe he just doesn't have very good social skills though. Good for you in telling him to cut it out. And if your boyfriend likes you for you he's not going to care about whether your skin is clear although it is of course understandable that you would want to look your best when he comes to visit. (I had a severe problem with psoriasis when I was younger and I know a little bit how you feel.) But just do your best (take positive steps) and then relax and leave the rest to God. God bless and we'll be supporting you in prayer; let us know what the doctor says.

It is definitely NOT a sin to get medical treatment for something that is ailing you like this.
I'll keep praying for you, Chloe. Please try to keep your chin up. And don't get TOO DESPERATE for this condition. It might clear up on its own. Still, it wouldn't help to see a specialist about this condition and the laser treatment option.
But I'm sure that your boyfriend, when he comes back, will still love you despite your acne. I'm sure he'll see the beautiful person that you are. God bless you, and I'll be praying for you and him together.

Thanks again everyone.
Caseyp57, I will try to ask my dermatologist. My next appointment will be next few weeks. I don't know why, but it's so difficult to get an appointment here.
Yesterday I spoke to my boyfriend. He said to me he loves me not because of my appearance. He choose me because of my personality. It really makes me relieve, even though I'm still a bit worried. Please continue to pray for me. I need a peace in my heart. I don't wanna be so stress and worried. I wanna feel peace. Since two days ago, every morning I start to exercise around my house and try to find the peace for my heart.
Thank you so much everyone for support me. And, for my colleague, I could only pray for him. It probably his personality, probably he doesn't mean to hurt me. I'm a bit avoiding him at the moment. I don't want him to make me down. Is it right?
I keep praying my face will be healed. Please keep praying for my face and my heart, so that my heart could feel the peace.

Lord, please help me. Please listen to my prayer, o, Lord, Father in Heaven.
It seems so hard for me. My colleague keep teasing me and looking into my face. I feel so sad and down. I don't know what to do anymore. I'm hopeless, Lord. I could only put my hope in You. Help me, and give me the strength.
I just knew my boyfriend will be here tomorrow! I really don't know what to do. Lord, please keep remind me I am beautifully made by you. You are my creator, you know my condition, please heal me... I bown down before you, Lord.
Lord, help me to keep believe in you. Sometimes I feel the world is not fair, but help me to believe that You are fair and just.
In Jesus name, the only Son of God, I pray.
Please keep praying for me, my healing and my peace in my heart.
Thank you, Brothers and Sisters.

Chloe I know how hard this must be for you. The most important thing is not to get your skin too dried out
That will cause the oil to get trapped underneath causing more breakout. Dont use heavy creams or makeup either.I think I would recommend a gentle exfoliate to use each day. That washes away the dry and dead skin cells and allows your skin to breathe and heal. After washing always rinse with cold water to close the pores. There is a apricot scrub which you can get that you can use everyday. or you can make your own with some honey and sugar. Also use a mask once a week. Dont give up sometimes it takes time.
Lord I pray you will answer choloes prayer.
Help her Lord as she faces this time in her life.
Lord give her renewed hope and strength to face each day.
Lord I pray for choloes skin condition to be healed,in Jesus name.
Thank you Lord for your abiding Love and amazing grace
Bless her with assurance Lord that you are always with her.
Thank you Lord
In Jesus name
Amen

My heart goes out to you. I know the pain of out of control acne. For me, it was hormonal. It was just a stage of life when my body was going through a lot. I know how hard it can be to feel like your world revolves around this problem. Stay faithful, keep praying, and God will see you through this. I know it, because He healed me!
Praying for you!

Lord Jesus, I have sinned yesterday. I'm sorry, Lord.. I am truly sorry..
I know I shouldn't have excuses, but it's really hard to say no.
Lord, please give me the strength to say no to it.
Jesus, I know I ask too much. I asked for he healing for my face, but I have sinned against you.
I am sorry.. but please Lord, please please listen to my prayer.. please heal me.. Heal my face, Lord.. Don't make it worse.. make it healed, Lord. I will try to be good, I will try to say no from now on, Lord. It's really hard, but I will try..
Brothers/sisters, please keep praying for me.
I feel I am such a sinful person. I feel like God is punishing me at the moment.
Is it just my feeling, is it just the devil's thought?
Lord, I'm really asking for your forgiveness... I ask so many times, but I'm still failed to honour You. I'm sorry, Lord.. Please don't punish me... Please heal me and don't make my face worse, Lord.. Please give me the strength and help me to think positive and keep believe in you.
In the name of Jesus Chirst, the only son of God, I lift up everything, I submit all into your hand.
Amen...

Oh my friend, God is not that kind of God....That is satan...He is not punishing you. He knows we are not perfect and he knows your heart, that is why once you asked for forgiveness you
are already forgiven and it is forgotten! So, don't think about it anymore..Just be patient and
just lean completely on the Lord 100%. Leave it in his hands and he will take care of you.
I look at it this way, you are such a sweet person and those people don't deserve to know you at all! They are not good for you and you are a wonderful person just the way you are. Just keep it in your mind and fight back but I mean in a good way of course. Don't let them see you get upset or mad, just blow them off because they are so not worth it...
Lord, please heal chloe Lord. Please give her some peace, joy, happiness, and a calm all around her. Please heal her and clear her skin perfectly Lord. Please please, I pray that you will show her that you love her and you will never punish her like that, show her that this is just the enemy getting to her and to not believe his lies. Please please Lord, heal her quickly Lord and just let her feel your love flow through her tonight Lord....
amen

Chloe,The Lord loves you
If you know you have messed you need to talk to the Lord and tell him about it.
He already knows so you need to repent and accept his forgiveness.
Also forgive yourself and let it go. I would encourage you to remember this and if faced with the temptation again say no.
Dont be afraid of the Lord. He is a loving,forgiving Lord who understands we mess up sometimes. No one is perfect.
He is not going to make your face worse. He wants so much more for you than you could ever imagine.
He sees the beautiful person he created and he has a plan for your life.
Lord I pray you will be with chole and comfort her.
She is sad Lord and scared.
Please be with her and help her through this time of confusion and doubt.
Give her strength Lord and calm her fears as she looks to you for help.
I pray as she reads your word she will discover more of your love and truth.
Hold her in your arms Lord and draw her closer to you each day
Thank You Lord
In Jesus name
Amen
Amen

amen Praying in agreement this and also with Kyl's prayer....and I agree God doesn't work that way Chloe. Remember we're all sinners and everyone messes up.....It is so good that your boyfriend said those nice things to you! Your co-workers however are acting like idiots; pray for them and if you feel so led you could leave the job-- who needs that hassle? But Remember God has a reason for everything in our lives....if only to help us depend on him more. In fact that is part of a scripture verse I recently read from 2 Corinthians 1:9 "that we might rely not on ourselves but on God..."
One other thought I had: until you can get to a doctor why not ask your pharmacist what he/she would recommend? Maybe ask/think about using some witch hazel? It's very drying and I've read you should moisturize afterward....(and of course make sure you aren't allergic to it) ...anyways ask your pharmacist who I'm sure will be happy to offer suggestions. In the meantime relax; consider how many people have acne at some point in their lives-- I think I've read like 85 percent. And even severe acne is very very common.... God will help you Chloe in this in his time; just be patient. God bless.

Hi All,
Updating for my condition, my skin condition, I have seen the specialist. He ask me to use the tretinoin cream. It helps my skin I guess, but the thing is my skin getting so red and dry now. I still praying for my healing. I know it takes times and I need to be patient. It's so hard though. I want it to be healed. I feel so embarassed with it. Next month I have some big event and I want to be perfect. I really pray for it. I also keep exercise and eat healthy and drink juice, until my friend say i'm like a monk and a cow. I don't know whether it helps, but I really pray for it.
Brothers/ Sisters, please keep praying for me. Help me to be patient and confident with myself. I cry out to you my Lord, please don't pass me by. Please grant me the healing. Help me to remind me I'm beatiful and such a precious creation. Give me the peace and joy in my heart, touch my skin my Lord. In Jesus name, I pray. Amen.
