#prayer request
I’m a mess you guys I’ve been looking for a jobs for months and I can’t find anything that I’m qualified for, pays even $15 an hour, and has healthcare benefits. That really shouldn’t be such a hard thing to do but here I am, unemployed and in massive debt. At this point I don’t even give a shit about actually establishing a career (even though I really should since I haven’t been able to hold down the same job for more than a year), I just need money and healthcare goddamit.
I could use prayers again, for something else this time though. The past 3 days I have been covered in hives and have had swollen joints, I’ve also recently developed a never ending heartburn, we don’t know what’s causing it and no allergy medicine has helped alleviate the rashes. Prayers to be able to deal with the issue are appreciated.
please pray that I may undergo the sacrament of baptism before it’s too late
Apparently my mental health survey on the health chart was so concerning they had a nurse call me days before my actual appointment I’m doing relatively okay, but I am in need of professional help again thanks to recent family drama and me not having any support network other than my husband where I live. Please pray that I can get the help I need with a counselor/therapist.
Asking for prayer for my nephew, J.
He’s 10 months old and we’ve suspected for a while that he might have some developmental delays.
He has spent the past week at the hospital as he’s showing steady signs of regression. Can’t hold his head up, can’t swallow properly, just having a hard time overall. They had a meeting with his team today, and while they have not gotten to the root cause or a diagnosis, they have determined that the regression will continue, and genetic testing will be required to determine the trajectory.
Please pray for healing in his body, for his parents and my niece. This news has brought us all so much heartache.

please praying for my housing insecurity to be resolved
literally wanting to get into any house at this point, please continue praying
Please, please pray for me. I got a wonderful new job, but searching for apartments and trying to thread the financial needle of leaving my old one, getting a new one, and moving almost across the coast is really anxiety-inducing for me. Please pray that God gives me the graces to find comfort in Him during these times, and that I may be blessed with just enough wealth to help me get by.
I was at vigil mass tonight and at the end of communion my priest told us that we would have to stay due to a threat at the church, I looked behind me and there was police and a couple of heavily armed men at all the doors of the church and we ended up having to wait 15 minutes after mass ended for the all clear. Honestly I’m still processing everything but I’m definitely a bit shaken up so if you could pray for me I would be grateful.
I live close to Buffalo so it’s still a really tense environment. So far I’ve been pretty confident just going about my day and my tasks but I’m still on edge about everything
Coming out of my break for a minute to ask people to PLEASE pray for baby boy Connor, he has just been diagnosed with stage 4 brain cancer that spread to his bones
urgent prayer request for an active shooter situation at a school where my friend’s cousin goes
“Why have You forsaken me?”
Imagine you’re watching Jesus hang from the cross. The only way He can breathe is by pushing Himself up using the nails in His wrists and ankles.
As the day draws to an end, He musters what little strength He has left to pull Himself up again so that He can cry out: “My God, my God, why have You forsaken me?”
If we’re being honest with ourselves, we’ve all probably had moments where we’ve asked God, “Where are You in this? Why have You forsaken me?”
How should we respond when we find ourselves in situations where we feel alone, anxious, or forsaken?
The words Jesus spoke on the cross were actually taken from Psalm 22—a prophetic lament written by King David. In many ways, this Psalm is about Jesus, but it also provides us with three action steps we can follow when we feel alone:
1. Be honest with God about how you’re feeling.
Relationships start with being real. So if you’re feeling forsaken by God, tell Him that. Ask God your questions, and prepare your heart to hear his answers.
2. Give God glory anyway.
Our feelings don’t change the fact that God is worthy of being worshiped. In fact, it’s often through worship that we discover the cure for our worry. When we focus on who God is, our perspective eventually shifts—even if our situation doesn’t.
3. Remind God of his promises.
Throughout Psalm 22, David basically tells God, “I know who You are. And since You’re always true to character, deliver me like You’ve delivered Your people before me.” Reminding God of his promises is not only an act of faith, but it also helps us remember the faithfulness of God’s character.
Ultimately, God’s faithfulness was personified when Jesus was crucified. Jesus willingly suffered alone on the cross so that we could experience eternal companionship with God. Jesus is the prophetic fulfillment of Psalm 22. And, because He endured separation from God, we never have to.
Take a moment to reflect on Jesus’ ultimate sacrifice for you.
Pray: Jesus, thank You for rescuing me from eternal separation from You. It’s because You willingly endured separation from Your Father that I never have to. Today, help me to pause and reflect on the magnitude of Your sacrifice, and to give You the glory You rightly deserve. No matter what I’m feeling, You are always worthy of my worship. So today, I choose to worship You. In Jesus’ name, Amen
My journey to Finland.. My life as a missionary just started..
I’m fighting off a seizure off and on for a few hours now and I’m worn out and I’m kinda loosing. I’ve been seizure free for 8 months now, which means that I can learn how to drive and start going places and doing things without being afraid of having a seizure. I don’t want to have a seizure, I really really don’t.
I think it goes without saying that I could really use some prayers right about now,(plus it says I do in the post’s title) so if my praying peeps would send some my way I’d greatly appreciate it.
Thank you for reading. Sorry about the awful grammar…and the language,
My grandma passed away this afternoon. It was a peaceful passing and a long time coming. I’d be grateful if you could keep her in yours prayers <3
If all of you reading this could, would you please pray for my friend thatcatholicgentleman. He’s a really great guy going through a really rough patch, and any prayer will help. Thank you. :)
So, yeah. Lost my job. Will update later, I suppose. But pray for me please.
Mother Mary, just like you told St. Dominic, “Whatever you ask through the Rosary shall be granted” I ask for the physical healing of Maria Teresa, my stepfather Luis, my mom Rosa, and all the sick whom I continously mention to you. In your Son’s Name I pray. Amen.
Also, prayer request, for me (please)?
I feel like I’m back on the path to self-destruction again. Please keep me in your prayers. I hope I find the meaning I so desperately need in life soon.
Prayer request for a family I know with a little baby who wasn’t supposed to survive past the day she was born. She’s two weeks old now and getting better very slowly, but there are still a lot of things for her to get through.
