If you guys could pray for my dad, that'd be great!! He apparently had the tips of two of his fingers cut off at work last night (I found a note on the table???) and he can't sleep I just found the note and I really hope he's okay if you could pray for him please that'd be great.!

Update: He's up and in a LOT of pain, he was cleaning a saw blade at work which he says is basically a 24" round razor blade and his hand slipped. The doc said he was about 2 millimeters from hitting the bone but it's a diagonal cut so he's missing a good bit of his finger.

He will be getting a skin graft on Monday, but the doc says it will be a few months before he can use it easily/naturally again.

If you all could pray for me, I have my last (hopefully) teaching test, the Praxis, tomorrow. If I pass it I can start student teaching within the next year (which means graduation soon after O.o ), and I am really nervous. I have been studying for about a month but I'm not sure how I'll do on it, because people have said it's a beast of a test (Four hours...). Anyway, I have been in and out of Urgent Care the past 3 days because of an infection on my foot which has really conflicted with studying, so please pray that my nerves will relax and I can hopefully pass this test! Thanks all!

Y'all, I'm having a really rough end of the semester. I've been really struggling with anxiety and depression, my grades are dropping, and out of the blue on Wednesday, my boyfriend broke up with me. I'm trying to see the goodness of God in all of this, because I know He's there and in control. He's still a good Father. But I'm having a really difficult time right now.
it's not about 'deserve'. it's about what you believe. and i believe in love

I'm sorry Stella C. and TigerShadow, both of those things sound really tough. I will be praying for you both.
2 Corinthians 12:9-10, Philippians 4:13, and Isaiah 40:29-31 are some Bible verses that encourage me, and I hope that they might encourage you too.

Hey, if y'all could pray for my dad that would be awesome. We just found out that he is going to need surgery in his hips, knees, and back. He was already going to get his knees replaced but the doctor said they should make sure his back and hips don't need surgery because it might be more important than his knees. Its turns out, all of them are really messed up and the reason he did not feel as much pain from them is because the nerves are damaged from previous surgeries on his knees.He might not feel as much pain from them but if they are not fixed soon he won't be able to move at all. Even after surgery, he won't be able to do much at all (he likes to hurt and work on our land and stuff). It's all a confusing mess and he won't be able to do anything like he can now ever again. He is very active so this will be hard on him. It was a pretty big shock for everyone. So yeah, if you guys could pray that would be awesome. =)

Hey guys, I applied for Hobby Lobby, so if you could pray that works out, that'd be great. Or if it doesn't, that God make what he wants me to do clear.

Oh absolutely! And while I'm here, my little brother isn't feeling well and may have the flu. I live in a big family so it's not uncommon for other people to get sick when one does. And I'm already not feeling very good, but I really do not want to be sick. So, if you could be praying for us that'd be great! <3

Is that what you’re saying?" -Jay Smouse
