Hi,
Things in my life are continuing to spiral downward fast...and I am terrified and confused. This is a very hard prayer because
I think God is closing the final door on some very important prayers and dreams that have been denied for years. What I really want is a miracle (finally love and the ability to have children, after losing most of my family) but I don't think that is the plan. I guess I need prayer that the sorrow of losing this will not last forever, that I will someday be able to be around other people who have families and babies without feeling so hungry,and like a complete failure. I guess I need prayer that this loss will not cause me to lose my faith and my soul entirely.

thanks,
b

Dear God,

Didn't we all learn a lesson from the whole Moses debacle? 40 years, while only a blink of an eye in Heaven, is an eternity to us mere mortals who have to walk barefoot through the desert in search of Milk and Honey!

In addition to praying for Beth not to lose her faith or her soul, I also respectfully request that you remember the suffering that we, who don't always understand your plan for us, often endure before you bring us home.

Your pal,
Erin

I will pray for you Beth I too had come to a crossroads when i lost 3 family members within a 3 year period. I am 41 in poor health without a family of my own and children and have felt the same way. They always say that he will not give us any more than we can handle. There is a reason that you need to go thru these hard times cuz you will be strengthened by them. I will pray that God gives you the inner strength wisdom knowledge and courage to take on your problems and become the person he wants you to be. Hang in there hun don't let go of faith cuz even a small amount of it can get you terrifying times.

God bless you your freind Roger

Beth;
I read once that we are spirits before returning to the earth, we are presented the opportunity for self purification through levels of tasks that we can choose from. Each level presents a difficulty to learn, love, compassion and humanity. We choose exactly where we are now, because we feel that we can make a difference. Can you imagine when you are faced with these hardships that your spirit actually choose to be in the position that you can hardly bear, and that you are here, because your spirit felt that you could learn enough love and compassion to overcome and move yourself up to the next level. That article finished that when we reach the last level we are purified and in God's grace. That is my little secret, I try to imagine that here somewhere is something that I am not seeing and that I need to learn from all of this. It gives you the opportunity to sometimes step back and think...maybe ...just maybe..there is something in this picture that I am not seeing...
With this Beth I pray for you that you may find through God's merciful love and sacrifice the way to carry your cross always with dignity.

Lord intercede for Beth and let her feel that through all her trails and tribulations that your hand is holding her up in her hour of need, that you are there to clear the path when she feels fatigue, and that she is not afraid to ask you to protect her from harm, let her invision the aura of your protection around her in a large circle that no one can touch her and that she is safe and has a place of peace when she needs.
God Bless Beth and Keep the Faith,
Esperanza, Fe & Caridad
