Monica, You are in my prayers. I pray God will give you the boldness to be a powerful witness to your friends. As a word of encouragement, I want to pass on something I heard a preacher say once. fear is false evidence appearing real.
F false
E evidence
A appearing
R real
The Devil is a liar. And you Monica, are more than a conqueror through Christ the Messiah who will give you strength and wisdom and a sound mind.
Count it all joy, because God is in the process of teaching you how to be an overcomer!! :) and if God is for you .... Who can be against you? No weapon formed against you will prosper. In the last verses of Psalms 103 it tells us God's throne is established in the heavens and His mighty angels wait there listening, with the intention of being obedient to the voice of His word.. to take the Word of God out to accomplish what it is sent out to do. Your words are powerful!! Pray God's word over your situation. His word will not return void, but will accomplish what it is sent out to do. In Him you can do ALL things ... without Him we can do nothing of lasting value.

There is another scripture that I had memorized, but I can't remember from where right now. It says 'God has not given us a spirit of fear but of peace love and a sound mind'. Affirm this in your life. It helps.

HI Monica. I understand what you are saying. Here are some scriptures that help me, read up, study and pray about it:
Isaiah 41:10; Psalm 34:4, Psalm 23; Luke 12:5; 1John 4:18; Epe 2:14; John14:27. I am sure they are more. I also take comfort in Jer29:11-13 and Isaiah 43:1 Ireplace 'Isreal' with my name to personnalize it. Read all of Isaiah 43. It is so beautiful and reassuring in times f doubts and fears. I hope I have helped. God bless you

Hello everyone. Just an update. Jerry is doing a lot better. Thank you to everyone who prayed for him. I also wanted to share something with everyone here that I posted in my Philosophy class today. I just felt like I should share it. I think God wants me to. God bless!


You know, at first, I posted that I think ethical egoism is just selfish. I have read more in our book and have decided to change my view a bit. I think if someone "only" purely thinks of their own interests and never the interests of others, then yes it's selfish, but it hit me when I was reading about the feminism views of ethics that it isn't wrong to care for our own needs before the needs of others "if" it makes us more equipped to help others. We have to fill up our own well before we can fill up the wells of others. We can only give so much before we are just plain drained and have no energy left for ourselves or anyone else for that matter. I think so many people, myself included, feel guilty when we don't give more to others. I thank God that I read about ethical feminism in our book because it made me realize that when we don't take care of ourselves, we can't very well take very good care of anyone else. It's actually selfish not to take care of ourselves, whether it's spiritually, physically, emotionally, mentally, etc.. If we don't, then we can't be the very best person we are capable of being for others too.

I liked the part I read about Jesus saying we need to help the weak too. Think about it. We are all weak when it comes down to the plain and simple facts. Sure, we'd like to think we are always strong, but we aren't. Every person is weak to some extent. It could be from something like their temper, mental conditions, or just inner turmoils that we each have in an individual sense. Something makes us weak. It could even be a relationship with another person. So by Jesus telling us to help the weak, in essence, He is telling us to help ourselves too. We must help ourselves in order to help other weak people. My faith has brought me to a greater understanding too because the well I spoke about earlier, for me, involves first filling up with the strength of God. He fills me up. I also get filled up with His wisdom and through taking care of my mental capacities, etc...

I just had to share this with everyone because it made me feel so peaceful when I realized it. Thank God for His wisdom too.

Hi everyone. I know I have been absent here but I need prayers and don't know where to turn. I never ask for help, but I am struggling so much right now. My marriage is about over and don't know how to fix it. He hates me and is only allowing me to stay here for financial reasons.

Please pray that God changes my heart so that I can begin to be a good wife to my husband. Please pray that God will open my husbands heart to me. Please pray that God will protect and bless this marriage. Please pray that God will heal my husband, he is hurting so much and I cannot reach him. Please pray that I can stay strong through all of this. He is all that I have.

Five Finger Prayer

This is beautiful, and it is surely worth making the 5 finger prayer a part of our lives.
1. Your thumb is nearest you. So, begin your prayers by praying for those closest to you. They are the easiest to remember. To pray for our loved ones is, as C. S. Lewis once said, a "sweet duty."
2. The next finger is the pointing finger. Pray for those who teach, instruct and heal. This includes teachers, doctors, and ministers. They need support and wisdom in pointing others in the right direction. Keep them in your prayers.
3. The next finger is the tallest finger. It reminds us of our leaders. Pray for the president, leaders in business and industry, and administrators. These people shape our nation and guide public opinion. They need God's guidance.
4. The fourth finger is our ring finger. Surprising to many is the fact that this is our weakest finger; as any piano teacher will testify. It should remind us to pray for those who are weak, in trouble or in pain. They need your prayers day and night. You cannot pray too much for them.
5. And lastly comes our little finger; the smallest finger of all which is where we should place ourselves in relation to God and others. As the Bible says, "The least shall be the greatest among you." Your pinkie should remind you to pray for yourself. By the time you have prayed for the other four groups, your own needs will be put into proper perspective and you will be able to pray for yourself more effectively.
