Today my husband and I were having a chat over lunch about how many of our friends and loved ones are going through so many things right now. I mentioned to him, that I need to start making a list so I can make sure everyone is getting covered in my prayers. I seen this look on his face like he had an idea! He said Jen, why don’t you start a weekly post on your blog and title it “Mom Bloggers Take Time to Pray”.
I just sat there and smiled. This was such a wonderful idea. So many people in our blogging community can use the online support and prayers, so why not us all come together each week and add our prayer requests. We can take this list each week and uplift the special prayer requests. God is so good and I am a firm believer that prayer works!
This Week’s Prayer Requests:
- Our Friend and Fellow Mom Blogger Chele Chestnut was diagnosed with Cancer.
- One Moms World and MaricrisG’s husbands’ unemployment. Praying they will land a job.
- The Singing Greene’s member Tony Green went to heaven today. Pray for his wife & two small girls!
- Fellow Twitter Mom Nell Taliercio in her fight against the Lyme Disease in her body.
- Fellow mom blogger AlliC5‘s sister took a turn for the worse in her fight against cancer.
- Fellow mom blogger MySillyBoys is asking for prayers for her dad. They found a spot on his chest x-ray. He is going to have a CT-Scan.
Do you have a prayer request? Please leave a comment below and I will update the list through the week. Let us all gather virtually and uplift each one of these specific request. God will hear us and will prevail!
“This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us. And if we know that he hears us – whatever we ask – we know that we have what we asked of him”
(1 John 5:14-15).
What a great idea, Jen. And thank you ever so much for adding me. I’m fighting “late stage Lyme” and it’s much harder to heal than early tick bites. So not only am I suffering with physical and mental problems – most people I talk to think Lyme is just pain in your joints and you get better right away. So it’s not only a terrible disease to try and heal but it’s so misunderstood that you often feel really alone suffering through it.
I’m a firm believer that Jesus is the same healing Jesus now as He was 2,000 years ago and that healing is ours… I like to call it my born again birth right (it’s always His will to heal….)… so I continue to stand for my healing… in the meantime, I do what I can to not let this take away every part of my life… the total quality of it.
I’ll be praying for everyone on the list!
Nell
I’m joining you in prayer for these folks. Love this idea!
Such a wonderful idea! I have been living on a prayer for some time now.
I recently started a new venture and I’m trying to market my new hair petals line. I am trying to generate some customers and hoping that reviews will help steer things in the right direction. I’m truly relying on word of mouth of my dear friends to help me kick start this. I lost my corporate job a year ago after 2back surgeries and have not had luck with finding anything in this economy. With 2 more surgeries coming up in the next few months, Babicakes is my key to survival. It’s unfortunate that a little health blip can cause you to hit rock bottm and lose everything. I am grateful to my family for giving my daughter and I a place to stay.
A shout out in any direction is gratefully appreciated! or even any suggestions on how to brand this product. I don’t have a website yet, just doing this thru Fb & Twitter for now.
My store is located in the photo album, with product description listed under each item. Lots of great petals, headbands and kufi beanie hats for girls of all ages and beautiful hair flowers for ladies too! These petals can be worn in the hair, attached to a handbag or scarf for a beautiful accent piece.
I will be praying for everyone on this list. Thanks for doing something so wonderful!
LOVE This, my friend! Praying!
Great idea and I will send up prayers as God truly does listen!
I would love to add one to this list. My cousin Norma Hartley who just turned 39 is in the final stages of fighting MS. It’s so hard to see a vibrant mother who went from one day standing to in a wheel chair and fighting to hold her head up at such a young age.
My niece’s son could use some prayers. He’s 6 months old and still in the NICU after being born way too early. He’s having trouble with his liver, heart, and breathing. They want to transfer him to another hospital for experimental treatments as soon as he’s stable enough to go, so if you could please pray for him, I’d be grateful. Here’s his occasionally updated Facebook support page. http://www.facebook.com/pages/Prayers-Support-Baby-Diedrich-/135033046519146?ref=ts
Could you add a prayer for all young teen drivers out there. Pray that they make good decisions when they get behind the wheel and that they are always protected by the Lord’s love and grace.
with all the sickness and turmoil in the world today we all need to band together and pray for each other everyday
Thank you so much for doing this Jen. It means a lot. Please continue praying for us.
