Each Little Joy {Prayer Requests}

Sep 29, 2013 | Rita

I am the kind of person that accepts each and every little joy and good thing as a sign from God. Now I realize that the may not be but for me they are. I mean when Edgar is so far away and he texts me I always thank God. For me it means not only that he is safe and thinking about me in that moment but that God remembers our struggle and how hard it all is for me.

There is an ugly side to that coin as well, when I don’t hear from him I blame God and ask what it is that I did wrong. Now I  believe that God understands this about me and while he may not like it he knows that I am nothing more than the spoiled brat that he created in those moments. After all we all have those moments when we are nothing more than children. To me I see God as my father very similar to my own father I had here on Earth.  God knows that, like my own children, there are times I don’t listen. Times when I think he is the worst parent in the world and times when I know more than he does. At least I think I do.

Today as you leave your prayer requests take a little time and thank God for something very small and very insugnificant in your life today. It could be as simple as you woke up without a ton of dishes in the sink. It doesn’t matter,just thank him. If you are new here please feel free to leave your prayer requests below in comments. You don’t have to eave any details you don’t want you. You can simply say you need a pray.

We will pray for you regardless of your religious affiliation, your beliefs, or any other reason. We will pray because everyone deserves a little pray in their lives.

    I know how you feel some days. I would appreciate a few extra prayers for my mother. She just lost her brother after a short illness. She is really struggling with the loss of him. I think it’s the reality of the fact that there is only 3 of them left out of 11 siblings. Thank you!
