            <description><![CDATA[ I need help and I know that the only one who can help me is GOD and a lot of PRAYER.  I am in a financial struggle so bad right now that I have to overdraft my account every month.  It's never by a little, is by $400-$500 a month, which puts me in a bind when I get paid again because it's automatically deducted.  My husband recently went to jail leaving my income to be the only one.  With what I make I can not afford to pay my rent and bills, car payment, insurance, and take care of three children. The other bad thing about it is I only get paid once a month.  My husband is really not a bad guy, he just made some bad decisions in his life.  I am now going through a custody battle with my step sons mother.  She wants to get full custody of him and he don't want to go live with her at all.  He has lived with my husband all his life and we got married in 2007 and he has residented with us the whole time.  Now that my husband has went to jail she wants to fught me for him.  I don't see him as my step son, I see him as my own.  I know I'm not his biological mother, but I get him up every morning, take him to games, practice, take care of him when he is sick, feed, buy clothes and shoes, and everything else a mother should do for a child.  I'm not being selfish toward his mother, but she has never had anything to do with him and he is not use to her, so he absolutely don't want to be there.  He has told her this and she is looking out for her best benefit instead of the childs.  I should be going to court this month for the final outcome of the custody hearing.  Please help me pray that he stays with me for his sake and our family.  Please pray that the judge sees the truth and makes the correct decision for him.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ Hello,<br />
 I really don't know where to begin. I've been in a relationship for 3yrs  and since that time we have been living together;  we are not married. This past week we received an eviction notice so we started packing our belongings and decided to move back in with our parents. (both in our 20's) This is extremely hard for us, I feel like a failure!! I really don't want to go back to my moms and on top of all this we get into a huge argument and he said he needs SPACE!! So.. I have no man and no home. The worse thing about all of this is...... I was not ready for a relationship when I met him but I've fallen deeply in love with him and I feel so much guilt for all the pain I've caused him since we've been together. Here's a little back ground information on me, when I was 17 I was rapped by someone I thought was a friend. I ended up leaving high school my 11th grade year and I haven't obtained my GED/Diploma yet (Failure) I didn't have anyone to talk to about the rape after telling my mom she simply said &quot;I'm sorry you went through that but you should have never been at his house&quot; that hurt but I moved on I guess. almost a year later I met this guy and we began dating, I was with him for 5yrs however early on in the relationship I found out that he was friends (really good friends)  with my rapist. We spoke about the situation and he apologized for his friends actions but said he doesn't understand this because his friend isn't like that. I put that comment behind me and moved on with the relationship. He never really had contact with his friend after that so I decided to stay; shortly after we broke up  and I immediately started looking for another man after crying constantly about my ex and realizing that he didn't want me. I met someone else  and we tried a relationship for about a month but that didn't work out, we ended up being friends for a few years and then I met my current ex that needs SPACE!!  initially he was a great man!! very sweet, caring and loving early on in our relationship. All that changed after he caught me talking to the &quot;Month old ex&quot; we would chat through text and Mr. Space!! hated that (It was wrong of me) me and Mr. SPACE!! moved in together after about a month of dating, I knew this was moving to fast but I went along with it. The ex of 5yrs called me and again I was :S I told Mr. Space that I don't know what to do. That along with all my other issues pushed him to the limit!! Arguments got worse, we started hitting each other and now he's finally done! I didn't want to post this but I need prayer!! Please pray for the both of us.<br />
<br />
Thank You]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ I was raised in a wonderful family. I came to believe God is A Good Father, as My Dad is.<br />
I believed because I have children, and am aware I did not give them life.<br />
I learned, if I used the hands and mind God gave me, many things could happen.<br />
Thank You God, Thank You God, Thank You God...was repeated often, daily.<br />
<br />
As time went by, My Dad grew older. I noticed some of my friends parents were different. Demanded attention, gratitude, offered money, and belongings if the children would &quot;Do For Them&quot;. The phrase...I Gave You Life...was said over and over...Wills, about LifeAfterDeath...<br />
<br />
My Dad, was always on the other end of a phone call. I heard him clearly. His advice was straight forward exacts and specifics. I felt his love every day. In obvious ways. Nothing invisible. Never a doubt or a question about his love or want for life to be good for me.<br />
<br />
When my hands no longer worked, I asked God for help. Nothing changed. I didn't hear his voice. I didn't see any actions. I was told, is His Plan. What happens to me, is all part of HisPlan. I will, if I accept that, rejoice in that, after I die, I will get to be with Him. Until then, all suffering has a Purpose, even if when we ask what it is, isn't answered.<br />
<br />
Many parents say, Do What I Say, Even If You Don't Understand Why. Other parents examplify, By BeingWonderful, in obvious ways.<br />
I'm having a serious decline of Faith because TheGod I am supposed to accept isn't as kind, and gentle as my Dad is.<br />
Many parents, my Dad being one of them, explained things. So I'd understand. He never hit me, or caused me pain ForMyOwnGood...So I'd Learn..........he would have put himself in front of a bullet for me.<br />
Why won't God protect us that way? My dad didn't fire the bullet, the FreeWillOfAnotherDid...BUT, My Dad would give HisLife For Me.<br />
I am told Jesus Gave His Life For Me. For My Sins. God KNEW, as a daughter of Eve I would sin? God Created me, WHY would what Eve did be passed onto me by an AllKnowing, All Loving God? If He gave me life, centuries after TheAppleIncident, why did he make me BornASinner?<br />
My dad just wants me safe, and happy. No Restrictions. No Promises of If You Are Good...Santa Will Bring...<br />
I was raised Here and Now by parents who would GIVE, and not demand. If I cry, they hand me a tissue. I can SEE the love and concern on their faces.<br />
I want God to hear me. I want The Comfort of KNOWING he has. BlindFaith, BlindBelief is no longer working for me. I am the opposite of a FoxHoleFinderOfGod. <br />
I believed all my life. Simply had Faith. When problems showed up, I used the hands I Thanked Him for, the Mind I gave Him credit for, and did what needed to be done to fix things.<br />
Practical Solutions I now wonder if were merely me. Just DOING.<br />
I was fine until I found myself in TheFoxHole. I cried out to Him. <br />
Nothing. Just Nothing.<br />
I am becoming a FoxHoleAtheist.<br />
I gave Credit To God when we worked hard. Now when I need for me, The God I Always Believed In, Is Silent.<br />
I don't need more faith. I need concrete.<br />
Those that say, we will GetIt when we die, why do those that make money saying they were there only bring back messages that say is pretty, happy...but no answers past Cause God says so...]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ :(Hello, people are probably sick and tired of hearing this tune that I keep playing. Saturday it was 5 months since my hubby went home to the Lord after a two year battle with cancer. I am a follower and believer in Yeshua-Messiah and He is everything to me. I know who I am and to Whom I belong to, without Yeshua I may not be here now. So why am I asking for prayer and a listening heart? Apart from Saturday and yesterday morning I have been on my own, Friday and today and have felt such a deep lonliness. When I was a young woman all I ever wanted in my life was to be a good  wife, for life to the husband that God would give to me . I have poured out my heart to our Heavenly Father about this, how I hate being alone and I just don't know how I will ever get through the next 20 years or so alone. Another relationship is not an option, my husband was, is and will ever be the only one for me. I begged God to give the sickness to me from Giuliano, he wanted to live and I would be delighted to go home early-so to speak, I long to be with my Heavenly Daddy, that has always been so for me. He was silent and so I repented and was restored once again. Every day you hear of marraiges breaking up over silly things and on other forums there are people so broken at the loss of their spouse, they had good marriages, I just don't get it, why? I have heard the teaching about us choosing our lives ourselves when we were spirit beings in Heaven, but surely Giuls didn't choose to die of cancer. I ask Yeshua to hold me as I pray in my bed last thing at night and soak my Lord with my tears, I know about the enemy and why we live in this fallen world, because if sin. My next question is why are so many very wicked people having affairs, breaking up homes and all the rest just sailing through life not caring a bean who they destroy in their path of self seeking selfishness. Why do they remain untouched and clean Godly persons get hit?<br />
<br />
I know that we as Father Gods children are never alone, but how does one overcome the longing for the touch, voice, scent, laughter and so on of the one who made us a complete person , it was God Himself who glued us together, my soul is in agony, my heart is in a million pieces and I have asked Him to help me find all the pieces cos I can't. <br />
<br />
Please pray for His Holy Spirit to grant me wisdom and understanding, and patience to go through this dark valley, I know that there is a light at the end and I know that Yeshua is carrying me, there are only one set of prints.<br />
<br />
Thank you for your compassion and Kindness.<br />
<br />

            <description><![CDATA[ Hello,<br />
<br />
Im confused about a few things and am looking for an answer. I have been married and divorced and have had a chance to have &quot;my time&quot; since then. However, I began to realize that that wasnt the lifestyle I wanted and began to spend time with God and consistently pray to God for the person that I wanted to be my wife. I was very specific in my prayers and God sent someone that matched what I was looking for almost to a T. However, there were a few signs that I saw that i was concerned about but I guess I was still focused on the things that matched what my prayers were. My question is why would God send what I asked for knowing what I wanted and stood in faith. I thought that it was written that ask in faith and ye shall receive. I cant figure it out. I know that she was sent by God but i dont know why this is so hard.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ I am in deep trouble.  It started a few years ago, when a close friend used my name in borrowing money from the banks.  I have been trying so hard to recover, and sold my properties in my attempt to do so, but with the interests that I need to manage, I never was able to fully recover.  What's worse is I think I am in a deeper trouble than before.<br />
<br />
I sometimes wonder when I will be out of this mess.  I am supposed to be earning well but all my income just goes to my monthly obligations.  Now I have reached the point where I really can't manage my obligations anymore.<br />
<br />
I feel so low.  My other friends are doing very well, and here I am, drowning.<br />
<br />
Please pray for me, so that God might notice me and grant me the the grace that I sometimes miss having.  I have lost my faith once, because I thought that if I no longer pray I wouldn't feel too bad if I don't get any help, but somebody started pushing me to hear mass again so I am inching my way back.  But it's just been very tough lately.  And this month is especially tough because I dont know where I can get the money that i need to settle my obligations. So please pray for me so that i can have the strength to go on and deal with this.<br />
<br />
Thank you in advance.  I wish and pray for good life for all of you.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ I'm not sure what to do here. This is truly my first time attempting to reach out for spiritual help! I have always been a 'Christian'... but now I AM a Christian. I was raised as a Catholic child and I didn't really understand religion at the time. Now I have come to know what it is that I want out of life and I'd really like some help and guidance. <br />
<br />
I currently started 'seeing' a guy a few months ago. He'd been my friend for 3 years prior, but we only recently got more ---intimate. He's a very devout Christian, as is his family. I suppose though, with me in his life, he begun to drift away from Christ. I had only recently started my own spiritual journey at the time and we both drifted far from what we believed in and valued. We got dangerously intimate for our age. Especially considering that there was nothing real that could come of what we felt. It got to the point where we both decided that it would be best for us to end our relationship altogether. We didn't start our relationship on solid ground. It was initially built on lies and secrecy and really, on lust. So, now we find ourselves facing six months of total isolation. We can't text, call, facebook, email, anything. I will not know what's going on in his life, nor will he mine. I'd like to start over with him. Start new. Begin a relationship founded and supported by God. It's just really hard for me. This separation is really taking a toll on me, emotionally, and I find myself breaking down each night and crying endlessly. It's painful and new and I don't know what to do. I pray for myself and for Ty (the guy), but I don't think we can do it on our own. I'd really appreciate any prayers we can get, just that we might find peace in Him and that we may be open to receive His word and that we may see what He has planned for us. <br />
<br />
I also just need some guidance. I really don't know what to do in terms of this spiritual journey of mine. I no longer have anyone to guide me, to help me reflect on what I learn and discover or the problems that I face. I can't go to any one in my church because my parents don't support this. I'm learning on my own, blindly, and it's hard. There's so much that I don't understand and I am scared by (yes, the things that I read in the Bible truly scare me.) I do what I think I can; pray each night, read my bible, try to live by what it says. But I'm still confused and overwhelmed and I don't know what to do anymore. This world is a lot bigger than I ever realized and there's more to it than I imagined. I just need some help.<br />
<br />
Thanks :S I think this all seems a bit silly of me, a bit... whiny... But at this point, life is really collapsing. There's a lot more going on than I can explain. I just need some guidance.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ My wife and I were in the process of getting our foster parent license and wasn't quite ready for it, but last week we became the foster parents to 3 children. Christopher 10, Hallie 9 and Joshua 7. All are wonderful kids. Please pray for my wife Freda and me that we can help these children and give the the love and guidance that they need while their parents are trying to get help for the drugs and drinking. And please pray for the kids, they are really missing their daddy and having some other issues. The little girl was raped about a year ago and she is really having a hard time with everything. Nobody knows where the guy is because her parents didn't press charges cause of there own drugs and other things they were into. Please ask God to direct our paths in helping these wonderful children.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ Please can I ask that you pray for me?  My husband and I seperated for a while to sort out our differences.  Then I found out he was actuallly having an affair with someone at his office.  When I confronted him he said it was the truth.  I am shattered and when I ask him if we could work things out, he said no he wants to be on his own, because he also wants to devote his life to the Art Of Living.<br />
<br />
So please I ask that you pray for me to get over this.  and for him to guide him in this decision going forward.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ My wife and I have been seperated for 8 months.  I am the one that left.  It was an abusive relationship and I was very unhappy.  I am a Christian and have tried to stay strong in my faith but I am really hurting.  She has asked me to come home and to postpone the divorce many times.  At times, she seems to have changed, and I still love her, which makes it that much harder for me...I dont know what to do...I have been asking and praying for God to help me...If I go back and it gets back to like it was when I left, it will just make it that much worse...Maybe I just needed your forum to vent ...She   AND  I get mad at times  and say things we shouldnt...We both agree this has probably drug out long enough...both of us just keep ending on hurting each other, and i hate that too...Thank each of you in advance for your prayers for both of us in this difficult time]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ I could really use some prayer right now.  I just moved to FL a little over 2 months (from PA) ago and things are not going well with my roommate.  He owes me money, which I have asked him for several times, hes not very responsible, I have to clean up after him all the time, and the worst part he brings people over to the apartment that I don't approve of.  This past Friday night he had 3 ppl over while I was at work.  I get home from work and to make a long story short it was a DRUNKEN MESS!  I was horrified that he would do this to me.  I got no sleep that night, and pretty much had my first panic/anxiety attack.  I literally feared for my life.  I was going to call the cops because I thought that one of the guys was beating up his girlfriend just the way things sounded.  But I knew If i called the cops I could be arrested because these kids were drunk and underage!  The alcohol belonged to  my roommate but he was past out drunk and knew none of this was going on.  It was a living HELL! <br />
<br />
My roomie and I are not on the same page at all.  The sad part is that he is my pastors son from PA.  So I thought things would be perfect. Boy was I wrong.  All I want for Christmas is to get out of this apartment and into my own place.  God please HELP ME.  I could use all the prayer I can get right now.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ I am a middle aged woman, never married with no family. During my childhood and early adulthood, I had a strong belief in Jesus Christ and often thought I felt his intervention in my life. For the last 20 years, I have totally lost my faith and have come to the conclusion that science proves there is no God. I am so saddened by this and yet I cannot shake it. I am in the depths of depression and often just want to die. I have chronic pain but nothing incurable and I am still able to work as a nurse everyday. I am falling deeper and deeper and just want death to be a finality, where all will end. I do not believe in Hell and am a skeptic when it comes to heaven. I just want to die and that be it.]]></description>

            <link>http://brethrenofmessiah.com/forum/read.php?3,299,299#msg-299</link>
            <description><![CDATA[ To all in need of a prayer, one thing I've learned is that when you're in much life's pain whatever it is<br />
it is just because GOD is thinking of you (remember JOB)<br />
He see's you and hears you too <br />
He knows what you are going trough <br />
Just keep praying to Him and Jezus and NEVER let satan take you of the road to his glory<br />
Remember Satan is wiser than all us,<br />
Notice how he Subliminaly changed the world and made it worse, i.e money, drugs, alcohol, and yes even things that we might think is good i.e. medical technology  which helps raising doubtfull questions about GOD, and  put doctors most of the time first <br />
and then prayers , <br />
Also how Satan made our world so busy with daily tasks i.e. schools, jobs, so we don't have time for GOD<br />
we might think only sunday is sufficient but it is not.<br />
thus we need GOD's help, and without the bible and or daily prayer we won't have a chance against Satan<br />
Notice many bad things happening to good people and bad people doing bad things nothing happening to then UNLESS they are <br />
a GOD's child and GOD makes them fall on their knee's.<br />
This live is very short and we should dedicate our lives completely to GOD, with prayers and helping other people in need and also <br />
make a non believer a believer.<br />
This is my opinion]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ Dearest Forum, <br />
<br />
Currently, I am going through so much stress and frustration because people have called me out and shamed and embarrassed me in front of many groups of people. Although I know I am guilty, I do not have the courage to go back out and be that self-confident person who I was to be. I hesitate to act and most importantly, I am very quiet around them. I do not open up because I am scared to do so. I just want to know how I can get a hold of Jesus? I am silently at war with the world and even at myself at times...I pray for Jesus and His hand. I really need His love and His comfort. I just want time alone and hope that you guys could help me with this. <br />
<br />
Thanks!]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ To all:<br />
<br />
The past few months have been very hard for my family and me. We recently have a new five month old baby girl who is amazing. My husband and I have been struggling for quite some time, mostly by my doing. I'm not proud of the things I've said and done with my life, but I trust that God has forgiven me and I'm making steps everyday to be obedient to Him and wait for His plan. Some days I seem okay. Others I seem devastated. I don't know how to let some things go. I don't know how to move forward. I've been so impulsive in the past and done very stupid things. Now, I'm scared to move and I'm waiting for him. I'm waiting for healing. I'm waiting for hope. I don't know what else to do with my life. I'm lost and broken. I don't know what I need anymore, but I know what I want. Some of it aligns with God and some of it doesn't. I don't know how to leave behind the parts that don't. As a friend of mine said, I'm so hung up on the righteousness that I'm failing to see His grace. I really don't know what else to do. Please pray for me. Please.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ Please God - My husband has come from the pits of hell and turned his life around for You and his family, and whether he knows it now or not - for himself.  Right now he is beyond discouraged - no longer wants to attend church.  Please God - I am pleading with you - He is exhausted.  He is sad beyond words to describe how he actually feels.  Feeling hopeless, and a failure as a Father, no longer knows what to tell our son.  My husband needs you.  I know for a fact I am not the only woman seeing the destitution being felt by the men in our lives.  Please God -  You may not have everyone's attention, but you have ours.  We are dedicated to you.  Please Bless My Husband. Please Bless Our Family,     AND WITH THE BLESSINGS - PLEASE PROTECT AND GUIDE US.  Give us discernment, wisdom, and direction.  Do not let us fail.   TELL US EXACTLY WHAT YOU WANT US TO DO.  We thank you for your patience, and forgiveness with us both.  Protect our son forever, and pour your blessings out on him.  I have always told our son to choose the good from us and not the bad.  Fill him daily with your spirit.  Help us when we are weak.  We need answers Lord, and we need Your help.  We will not achieve what is necessary to get things accomplished you have given us to do without Your divine intercession.  Make us a tool in your tool box Father.  We love You - Do not forsake us in our hour of need.  Courage.  We have the courage to ask You for help when we need it -PLEASE GOD ANSWER US WITHOUT DELAY - HELP - WE NEED YOU.  IN JESUS MIGHTY NAME - Amen]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ I have been in a real bad way for the last 5 years or so. I've been in the bottom of a deep depression. I lost my means of supporting my family the way they insist on being supported and that has caused a deteriortation of my marriage. I left a few days ago and the only reason I haven't taken my own life is because I love my 3 kids so much. Being away from them is killing me but I don't feel that I can go back. I feel lost in a way that I never could've imagined. I'm afraid that I will give in to the very dark thoughts and feelings I have now. I just can't see any redemption for me and I don't know what to do. I've cried out (loudly) to God, but I don't feel His presence in my life at all. I feel like He has abandoned me and I feel like I deserve it.<br />
<br />
I just want someone to pray on my behalf in the hope that it will keep me going untiol something gives, one way or the other. <br />
I'm very scared right now.]]></description>
