  1. Marissa says:

    8 I delight to do your will, O my God;
    your law is within my heart.”
    ❤ this really speaks to me. I crave to do Gods will!!

  2. Christina says:

    The lord is my strength and provider, I pray to keep him at the center of everything ❤️

  3. Kim says:

    Yesterday’s and today’s passages have pointed out to me that I need to be more content and to completely trust that the Lord is in control. No complaining or grumbling. Contentment.

    1. Tiffani says:

      Amen Kim!! Contentment in Christ is my Constant Prayer

  4. Kelly says:

    3 He put a new song in my mouth,
    a hymn of praise to our God.
    Many will see and fear the Lord
    and put their trust in him.

    Loving this portion of the Scriptures today, how true it is, now that we are grafted into His family and we reflect His beautiful light, people around us can’t help but wonder who’s our Lord and want to know Him too.

  5. Suzanne says:

    Prayed for Kalli Ann and Savannah, that God would allow you both to feel His love and comfort as you wait for Him to show you His plans.

  6. Savannah says:

    Most of you are probably asleep already, but if you’re awake I could use your prayers. I’ve been struggling a lot with emotions and feeling depressed the past couple days. What a shocker for a teenage girl :P and then I went to orchestra only to have everyone there berate Christians and Christianity, as I have to deal with every Sunday. Everything has just been difficult. Trying to remind myself to turn to God. Thanks ladies!

    1. Megpie says:

      Lord, I lift up savannah! I pray your grace and comfort would envelop her. I pray the joy of the Lord would be her strength. I pray your Word would wash her and renew her. Thank you for Savannah Lord, and that she wants to follow you steadfastly. Give her words when words are needed, and a contentment with silence when they are not. Remind her that she is surrounded by a great cloud of witnesses in the heavens and many steadfast followers of the Way here on earth. I pray you would increase her desire for you and lessen her desire for the things of this world. I pray you would be her one true love and she would not feel famished for the love of others. Bless her Jesus, as she runs into your arms. In your precious name I pray, amen!! ❤️

    2. Maggie says:

      Praying for you Savannah! He is near to you.

    3. Yana says:

      Savannah, stay close in His word and you will find comfort. Those that berate Christian’s and Christianity often do it out of fear of the unknown and ignorance/false teachings.
      I spent most of my teens depressed and emotional, fighting to stay centered. Though I was a Christian and went to church I was not spending anytime in the Word. Maybe if I had been it would have been easier to find center and stay there. You have that over me. :-)
      Pray, study the word and find a Christian adult you can trust to talk to. Thank you for trusting us. We will send you legions of prayers. Sleep tight and pleasant dreams. Feel,our prayers wrapping you in Our Father’s love.

    4. Dianne says:

      Praying for you Savannah. Keep on trusting in God! We love you & so does God!

    5. Cecalee says:

      I’ve been there as I’m only 24 now. I was raised in a Christian home, but if I would have known to just read my bible more and pray and let God handle it I would be 1000 steps ahead. Praying for peace and comfort. It’s totally ok to be different! Let your light shine and you may be someone’s only exposure to Jesus. How awesome could it be to be a witness to them! Thinking & praying for you savannah!

  7. Antimony says:

    40:11 “You, O Lord, will not withhold Your compassion from me; Your lovingkindness and Your truth will continually preserve me”. Oh God. How I cling to this promise of compassion and mercy. It’s the only thing I can trust. The only hope for my wretchedness. The only light in my darkness.

  8. Kalli Ann says:

    Psalms 38 and 40 tug at my heart today.
    8 I am feeble and utterly crushed; I groan in anguish of heart. 9 All my longings lie open before you, Lord; my sighing is not hidden from you.
    15 Lord, I wait for you; you will answer, Lord my God.
    21 Lord, do not forsake me; do not be far from me, my God. 22 Come quickly to help me, Lord my Savior.
    I go back and forth between these sorrowful words and the uplifting words of psalm 40.
    My husband and I are struggling with fertility issues. We never imagined we would be one of those struggling couples. As we are surrounded by friends getting married and getting pregnant right away, we assumed things would go off without a hitch and we would be joining them in this new exciting journey soon. I am a physically strong person, but apparently my body is feeble in a way I never imagined it would be. It crushes my heart. It is making my mind become feeble too. I went for testing Friday, and eagerly await the results. I pray so hard that it is an easy fix and nothing serious. But at the same time I pray that God opens my heart and my mind. Give me clarity and trust. Clarity to see the path my husband and I are meant to take if that path may not be children right at this moment. Give me trust in your choices Lord. Keep me strong from turning to sinful hate and anger. Bring my husband and I closer together through this struggle. Help us to lean on one another and hold us together Lord. Guide us in the path you see fit for us. I feel as though my prayers are selfish at times- help me to focus them on your will.
    8 I desire to do your will, my God; your law is within my heart

    1. Christina D. says:

      Kalli Ann I’m praying for you right now. Lord give my sweet sister peace and protection, mentally, spiritually, and physically. I pray for strength and compassion between her and her husband rather than discord or silence. I pray that if it is Your will, You will ultimately allow her to become pregnant and have a child. Lord, you know the very depths of her heart and the groans of confusion, frustration, and anger. Speak to her. Let her hear Your voice even if not Your plan. Sustain her and give her friends who listen, care, and pray with her. Kalli Ann, I found a lot of comfort in Lamentations when my husband and I were struggling to get pregnant, specifically Lamentations 3:19-26.

      1. Kalli Ann says:

        Thank you so much Christina. I’m sharing that reading with my husband tonight :)

    2. Billie says:

      I’ve been on a similar path before and I wanted to let you know I’m praying for you. I pray this struggle yields miracles that will leave you breathless, and that you and your husband feel love and support in the valleys of this journey. Hugs to you!!!

    3. Cecalee says:

      Praying for you!

    4. Katie Hentges says:

      praying for you and your husband, Kalli Ann! May the Lord give you the desires of your heart or the peace and the strength to accept his best for you! When I was handed something that I was not wanting or ready for I remember the thing I kept telling myself was this… “Lord, I want EVERYTHING you want for me and I want NOTHING that you don’t.” Whatever the Lord has for you, it will come to pass! And God is working on our behalf!!! He has taken care of our greatest need!!! And he is a Father who gives good gifts to his children… He knows what is best for you Kalli Ann!! He has his BEST in store for you!!

    5. Tammy says:

      4 How blessed is the man who has made the Lord his trust,
      And has not turned to the proud, nor to those who lapse into falsehood.
      May the Lord bless you for trusting in Him, and give you wisdoms do joy in the coming days. May you overflow with gladness.
