Prayer Urgently Needed
« on: December 16, 2009, 09:04:28 PM »
I am normally not one to air my private business but so much has happened to my family this past 2 months that I would ask you all to pray for them, times are rough and I am the only saved member of my family.  

My brother is skipping school alot, and is having severe temper tantrums, and wrecking stuff at my mom's house.  Please pray for my mom's safety and that the LORD would convict my brother of his disrespectful and sinful ways.  He has prayed the sinners prayer years ago but has shown no fruit so I fear for his salvation as well.  

My mother is struggling with her Memory, we are not sure if it is related to the stress my brother is causing, or if it is more serious.  Please pray for the LORD to preserve my Mom.  She is also unsaved so please pray for her salvation, what she is going through would be so much easier for her if she had the LORD.  

My sister's husband lost his job, and they recently discovered that he has a kidney disease and he is now on dialysis with 2 failed kidney's.  On top of that MY sister's motherin law is now staying with them because her other child kicked her out.  The Mother is not chipping in rent, food, or help around the house, is making my sister pay for her cigarettes and her and my brother in laws family are actually being very rude to my sister, saying that she had "better" take care of her husband and his mom, like it is required of her.  Neither my sister or her husband are saved, and they have no interest in discussing "religion" with me  :-[  

My father just lost his job that he has had for 20 years, to a vengeful former friend, who got him fired just to spite him.

Please pray for endurance for me because it is very hard to be 7 hours away from my family at this time, I want to go up there and find a way to make everything right, but I cannot.  Only the LORD can help my family, so would you please pray?
In AMERICA!!

Prayers are up. Believe it or not, I can relate to much of what you have said. Keep up the faith and let God lead you to the right opportunities to witness.

Praying for you and your family.  May these difficult times bring them closer to Christ, and may you cast your cares upon Him.

"And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose."
--Romans 8:28 (New International Version)

This verse often gives me comfort through the rough times in my life. Just keep your own focus on God, and he'll pull you through. And pray for opportunities to talk with any of the members of your family about your faith, you never know, God is a good God.

Praying for you.
