So my neighbor has terminal cancer. His son is one of my siblings best friends and even though we're praying for them a lot, they earn't Christians. So I'm just scared and it would be great if you could pray for them. Maybe that God heals him or that he becomes a Christian or something, I don't know. But he'll probably die before the end of the year if he doesn't get better somehow.
"Let me get this straight. I bet all those non-friends of yours try to embarrass you about your love for that stuff, right? So, you almost feel like you have to hide your treasures away and can only take them out in secret on rainy days when your mom goes to the store to get more liver and nobody is around to berate your sensitive spirit. Is that what you’re saying?" -Jay Smouse

Hey, wondering if you guys could pray for my best friend. Her husband died at 4 this morning. They don't know why or from what. He had shortness of breath, then he was gone. So just keep her family in your prayers. (They also have an 18 y/o boy, 13 y/o boy and 3 y/o girl)

Ok so I know I just posted a prayer request but I really need help! I am going through a really hard time in my life and I have been thinking about suicide. I am tired of being lonely and hurt. I have had most of my family turn against me and it hurts a lot! I am so sick of the hurt! I am tired of people assuming the worse of me. Is there something wrong with me that I am not seeing? I really can't do this anymore. People have called me weak for crying (I cry a lot) I have tried really hard to be strong and its not working. This might seem sudden but, its really not. I have been feeling hurt and alone for a long time. I don't know how much longer I can do this. I need a way out. I need help.

Man, I know what that's like. I am so sorry. I'll definitely be praying. But for something this serious, it's also armchair counselor time.

If you're having suicidal thoughts, I strongly, strongly suggest you see a psychiatrist or counselor—as someone who now takes medication for an anxiety disorder, trust me, it is one of the best things you can do. And if it becomes overwhelming, call 911; they will do their best to help you in any way they can.
it's not about 'deserve'. it's about what you believe. and i believe in love

Thanks, I would but I know my family would think it is just an excuse or something. I mean I have said stuff kinda like this before but they did not care. I am just so tired of hurting. I have been made fun of by my family since I was 6 yrs old. I really cant do this anymore. Its to hard. I am tired of people saying that I am faking. I just need someone to talk and listen to me. I just need to feel ok again.

Thank you TigerShadow and all the people that PMed me. It was a great encouragement! I realized that all I really need is 1. The right help 2. People to talk to 3 (most importantly) Jesus. My struggle is not over. I feel it has just begone. But, if you could pray that would be great. (If you want to PM me or post here also that would be a great help!) Thanks once again.

Hey, could you all pray for person I know? Her husband passed away just yesterday when she was at church. It would be helpful if you guys could pray for me to. He was a great man.

I will definitely be praying Blitz. That's terribly sad.

I'll pray for you, Kathy. Don't think so low of yourself, remember that God made us only a little lower than the angels. I also think you should talk to a counselor or just another adult.

Hey ya'll we need to pray for Jon Schmidt's family (the guy who plays the piano from The Piano Guys). He recently lost his daughter who fell off a cliff while hiking alone last month, and a team of dogs or something found her body a few days ago. I know that the suspense of not knowing where their daughter was for a whole month was horrible, and they have said that they're glad for the closure, but it still must be killing them. Please pray for them.
