Thanks leofa, for having such an idea of carrying one anothers need in prayers. Am in a ministry of reaching children with the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ, and am responsible of raising support as the financial policy "ASK GOD AND TELL HIS PEOPLE." Is concerned. Therefore am asking a prayer that God will bring people of His choice who will both pray and give to meet the targeted budget and to be able to serve the Lord 100% in this ministry of Child Evangelism Fellowship - Kenya. If the Lord lays this need on someones heart would be appreciated by the many kids who still need Jesus to be their saviour. kennethk52@gmail.com.

Wow!
That is very nice of you.
Yes I have a lot of problems.
My biggest concern is having enough money, so my parents don't have to move out.
Having enough money to buy food and help others,
without having the worries of the financial world.
I feel like I am in jail.
I cannot contribute to life, because everything has gotten so expensive.
I know I could help others more, if I did not have this worry.
Much of the time, I am depressed because I cannot find a way out.
(The sad part is, I know I am not the only one.)
Thank-you very much.
God Bless, Margajoe

What a wonderful thing to do! Your prayers will be most welcome by all who recieve them I know! My prayer concerns seem minor compared to others, but it is troublesome for me. I am divorced and I am struggling with finances right now. I know that there others in the same boat as I, and I do take this burden to the Lord on a daily basis. I know He is there and will be with me through thick and thin. Thanks for your prayers!

Thanks for your encouragement. It is so good that someone out there knows the Lord and enourages others to look to Him for answers.

Thank you Leofa, it's good to have some one pray for you when yopu are in need. I along with several others over age 55 were sent on early retirement unexpectedly. I am now struggling to make 2 ends meet as the new business that I started is taking some time to get off the ground and the pension is very small as I was not at that company for very long. Because i went off early I don't qualify for pension at the other place of work yet. Times are hard and threatening to get harder. I thank God that I still have a roof over my head and can still put food on the table but it's really getting to be a struggle. Help me pray please.

Hi carol2532001,
May the Lord bless you and give you His peace in this hard time. I imagine sometimes it is hard to keep the faith but these are the times that allow our faith to grow. May He walk with you daily, may His peace give you strength and shelter. Always remember, He only a prayer away. God bless you and keep the faith. He won't forsake you. Leofa

Hi Leofa, I think your prayers worked. I got a part time job that has kept body and soul together and so far we are surviving. I was really at a low ebb when I responded to you, but your prayers helped. God bless you and may his light shine on you and your loved ones. Thank you, Carol.

Study programme. I want to go for further study, but things are getting little complex. wondering whether to stay back for two more years and minister to the students or leave this year and come back early.

Hello, I am requesting prayer for two things, healing for my husband, he has stage three liver disease and has days when he is so weak and tired that it's all he can do just to get out of bed, other days he is ok, but I worry, especially because he isn't as close to God as he should be... Also I pray that our financial problems get better. Thanks for starting such a great discussion, I recently moved and am looking for a new church in our area, so it's been awhile since my kids and I have been. Thankyou and God Bless You!

Bless you,
I need a financial blessing, I lost my job 3 weeks ago, my husband is also unemployed.
We have no savings, since I was the main wage earner.
We were able to pay July's rent, (thanks be to God), but if we do not find something soon, I do not know what the next month will hold.
I know that God will make a way, but as a human I am really scared.
Having very little money, it has become a challenge to look for work, because of the gas prices, we find ourselves out of gas so often, because of our limited funds. I am not making excuses, this is how it is.
I thank God for everything he has done for me, I will keep the faith.

Hi Leo
What a wonderful jesture on your part. As many can probably relate, my husband has been out of work for over a year now and I'm not able to work so life has been a bit rough for us. My biggest concern is possibly losing our house. I'm an optimist so I say my prayers and hope for the best. I also try to remind myself that there are so many more people in this world with much worse problems than mine and so I try to keep things in perspective.

I am truly grateful for this chance to share with you my prayer request.
I am trusting in God to give me the victory in the property settlement matter I am undergoing. My ex-common law husband is not to receive any compensation from me whatsoever and my house is to be granted to me in my name alone.
God has been blessing me and I have decided to serve Him and walk the right path. I also trust God to position the right people to assist me in any area of my life.
Thank you for your prayers and God bless you richly!
