She was only four years old and died within 3 days from undiagnosed stage 4 kidney failure. She didn’t show any symptoms until this week. I got her after my first miscarriage and she got me through my second one. I don’t have any living children yet, this was my baby girl and my best friend. I was planning on the next 15+ years with her. My greatest comfort has left me. Please pray for me.

My brother was jailed for having 0.4 grams of M with him. The patrol officers who arrested him intimidated him into handing over his cellphone and password. He was scared and didn’t feel like he could refuse, so he gave them access. My three other siblings and my mother were at the police station, begging them to let him go since it was his first offense, the amount was very small, and he is still a teenager — but they refused.

My mom tried to ask for my brother’s phone back, and one of my siblings questioned why they took it since it was his privacy. Suddenly, one of the patrol officers got angry and said (verbatim): “Give me that cellphone. What’s the password? Hand it over!”

Another one of my siblings also protested because what happened was clearly not voluntary, but they were shouted at again and told, “You don’t know anything.”

They never even informed my brother that he had the right to refuse. They just took the phone, and I honestly believe they did it to build a stronger case against him since they only found a very small amount on him.

I’m not a lawyer, but I know that giving access to a phone and password is supposed to be voluntary, or there should at least be a warrant.

I’m not going to pretend my brother is a perfect person because he’s not. He’s stubborn, hardheaded, and doesn’t listen sometimes. But he is not an evil or violent kid. We even scold him for kissing our dogs and cats on the mouth even when they smell bad — he just ended up with the wrong crowd.

Some people will probably say he deserves to be jailed so he can learn his lesson, and honestly, I understand that. But the reason I want to get him out as soon as possible is because there is a serious health risk inside the prison. Around twenty people have already died from sickness there. When we visited him yesterday, another dead body was being carried out, and it seemed so normal to everyone there.

My brother has lung problems and a weak immune system, so I am worried sick. He also hasn’t been sleeping and has been suffering from severe headaches. He does not deserve to die inside a prison cell over a mistake he made once.

I'm not just asking for prayer, but hopefully words of comfort...I read where someone said basically if you haven't had a supernatural encounter with God, more than just a handful of miracles, that you may not be one of God's elect...I'm really saddened by this, and feel lost...I've been trying to do God's will for many years...a sheep who heard God's voice 😔

my life is disgusting and gross, for context im a girl and im 16 and ever since I was 5 ive been exposed to sexual content from a abuser and I was abused until I was 14 and I continued to put myself into bad situations because of that and like I feel so so disgusting because I finally realised what has been happening my whole entire life is not fun or just making money its disgusting and abuse and horrible and I was finally getting a second chance because my mum was moving me to a high school were they support your mental health more and you get more freedoms such as no school uniform and the school starting at 10 am instead of 8 am and it being more relaxed than my current super strict school but they rejected me because my grades were to ''good'' im literally a c student idek what they are talking about and my mum asked them to re consider so I had to take a depression test or somthing and they said I dont show enough depressive symptoms to be let into the school and im so so sad everything was going to be good but im not sick enough to be let into the school??? It dosnt make sense bc im literally in anorexia recovery rn but im not even allowed into the school? I feel like my life is over and my whole body just feels disgusting.

Prayers needed for this pregnancy and a genetic disease. This is long but, please😭

I recently found out I was pregnant again, a total shock by the way! I am currently 4w5d and while I’m over the moon I’m also terrified. I carry a mutation for a “milder” form of muscular dystrophy that can range anywhere from being unaffected your entire life needing nothing at all to needing a wheelchair eventually at some point in adulthood anywhere from early adulthood to well later into life or even never and just needing other mobility devices. This disease ONLY affects males so any male I have has a 50% chance of having the deletion. I currently have two amazing, perfect sons who are thus far, by the grace of God completely unaffected and thanks to God science is finally finding medications that work at stopping progression for those who do start to get weakness (fingers crossed that continues on into a full cure!!)

I have been longing so badly for another child and longing for a daughter/sister for my boys. To the point that it hurts. I have been trying to talk to my husband about ivf which can help avoid any further children being affected. My husband has been on the fence and really leaning towards not wanting a third (his feelings are fair) but, I however know I will never feel complete without them. we are very fortunate in all aspects and can afford it. I absolutely LONG for another. To a point that it’s painful.

I told my husband yesterday about the baby because I needed a few days to sit with it alone. Now let me preface by saying he is an AMAZING Man, a loving husband, the best father, and a great provider. It sounded like he was leaning towards me terminating immediately due to the carrier status I have. He said this very gently but, that was the sounds of it. I understand not wanting to pass this on to another child knowingly (we didn’t know this at all until my youngest was born and we did random newborn screening) and I understand that BUT, there is still a 75% chance this baby wouldn’t have it at all and I just can’t. I want them so badly and I love this baby SO much already. If they are a female, they have a 50% chance of being a carrier (would never be effected since it only effects males) or a 50% chance of not being a carrier at all. If it’s a male they have a 50/50 shot of either having the deletion too or not at all. To me, that’s a huge chance they won’t.He is on the side that we had two boys and they did both end up with the deletion and while I completely understand that, I don’t think I’d ever been able to forgive myself and not think of the “what if it was a girl? What if it was a male that did not have the deletion?” For the rest of my life. I want to do an early gender test in a week and a half and then, if it is a male do the NIPT at 9 weeks pregnant that will specifically be able to search for this deletion then if they do have it, go from there. My husband thinks the longer I go, the harder it will be and he’s right but, I also feel like that’s a pass straight to hell. I’m so terrified. This also feels like God heard my prayers and cries and yearning and gave this child to me and who am I to immediately “get rid of” them? That feels monstrous. I have longed for them, cried to God in my car many hours, and this just feels like it was thrown into my lap.

please, please pray for this child to be unaffected or a female. Please. I need so many prayers. I am so scared and hurting when I should be joyous.

It would be nice if I could get a prayer for a cat I love and went missing.. I have so much anxiety and sadness that’s weighing on me, it’s unbearable, I need to know if he’s safe out there, to come back home to me.. I miss my baby

I’m hesitant to say it’s my dream job, because it’s not a crazy job, but it truly is. It’s a job in a different department at my current organization, and I love the people here and it’s a chance to work in a subject I’m truly interested in.

Unfortunately, I’m completely unqualified. I probably only got to the 2nd interview because of the fact I already work here, not because of my resume or anything. And I feel like I did awful on the second interview.

I spent a year diverting from my original education path to pursue this career and I’m afraid it was all in vain, and if I don’t get this job, I’m going to struggle finding another one. It’s really competitive at the entry level. I feel like I made a stupid decision in pursuing this career when I could’ve gone the practical route.

Please pray for me, pray that I will be able to prove myself and show myself as a worthy employee in a 3rd interview, and pray that I will get accepted for this position so that I may start contributing to society and being fruitful. This would be my first full time job, so I’d finally be able to work towards moving out and planning my marriage with my fiancé.

I’ve been trying to keep Matthew 21:20-22, John 15:7, and Luke 17:5-6 in mind but I’m having a severe lack of confidence in myself and I’m fearful of failing, and the position I’ll be in if I do fail.

Is it possible to follow a spirit who you think is God or Jesus but be unable to tell the difference between it and God? I mean if everything seems to check out identically to God but it’s not really Him.

I posted a few days ago for prayers. I am at my witts end. After dropping off my boys at school this morning I walked by a bridge and contemplated jumping because I feel like my boys would be better off instead of having to go through this homelessness and always staying in a shelter or in our tent when the shelters are full. Yes I've connected with churches yes I have been trying desperately to find a job yes I am trying hard as a mom. But i am at my witts end.

Trying to get through this. Meantime finances are not bad (wife still employed) but could be better. Feeling hopeless but holding on to Christ but never felt so absent

she posted about killing herself at the christianity subreddit, i feel bad for the poor child and thought we should pray for her . Mods please don't delete this due to subject https://www.reddit.com/r/Christianity/comments/1tidw1r/im_killing_myself_tonight/

Hi everyone,

Today is my birthday and I just wanted to ask if you could pray for me; that God will uplift my spirits and keep me strong no matter what happens. I also ask for wisdom and guidance for my future.

If you could also pray that God will be with me during this difficult time (the past 8 months have been stressful…) and help me with what I’ve been worrying about: my Dad’s detainment, my grandmother’s health, etc.

Thank you in advance for your prayers, I pray that God will keep you guys in his hands and for peaceful days for everyone :)

For Context: After a few months of unemployment I accepted a job at the beginning of the month. The pay sucked but my director was willing to work with me on getting scheduled a lot. A week into the position- the director told me they were leaving and encouraged me to apply. I didn’t but I thought that was wild. Two weeks in and upper management calls me in to provide assistance to a different department that I have background in. So, I guess I’m doing two jobs now?

Today they cut my hours for June. I was working full time and now I’m barely scheduled 3 days a couple weeks next month. When I talked to my director about she just said “sorry” and when I talked to upper management about it they said they’d “look into it” and “your director promised you something that isn’t there” - so I don’t have much hope.

I see and understand their leadership and organization is the issue here but that doesn’t help me pay my bills. I already applied to a few more jobs tonight.

I’m trying to be positive and just keep pushing along but wow it’s hard tonight.

—
Please pray that maybe HR can fix the scheduling for next month. Please pray that I can learn this new department role while I’m there and do some good. Please pray that I can have some direction and guidance on what I need to do next. Please prayer for God’s provision either on the immediate need of money to pay bills or a new job quickly. Please prayers for my attitude. I don’t want to walk around like a storm cloud because of this. Life happens sometimes I know it, but I want to react well.

My Mom's mental health is declining. She's becoming a nightmare. I have my own pressures. I don't know what to do to help her.

Eee prayer in my work life as I need a visa sponsorship in 4 months or I will get kicked out of the UK. In Jesus mighty name I pray. amen

we don’t have money please my father needs help. all we need is money something we don’t have. we need God more than ever right now. please pray God give him a speedy recovering.

I don't typically ask for prayers, but I have been going through alot of stress, worry, anxiety, panic and fear for a while now. Most of it revolves around either my crippling social/performance anxiety which makes it difficult to do well at my job as well as around my future and the overwhelm I feel from my options and decisions and just life in general.

I especially struggle at work where I can't help myself from coming close to panicking when I am in meetings. It's very emotionally draining.

I'm so overwhelmed I don't even know where to start or what to do or how to even specify what i'm asking for. I just could use some prayers.

I dont wont to be sensitive anymore. Its very depressing. I still believe in Jesus but dont wont to feel or see demons anymore. I do want to have good connection with God. Im tired of feeling people energy and spirits. I want to be in peace again.

When I eat outside of the diet I'm supposed to be on (due to an autoimmune disorder), I feel very weak physically and experience fatigue the day after. Because of this, my doctor has ordered lab work to see if any other disorders are also happening as well. But sometimes, it's just hard to keep up with the diet due to the reasons I've mentioned. Please pray. Please also pray for possible total healing from this disorder. Thank you.
