Prayer Request
Thank you for everyone who prays for me. I really appreciate it and can't even put into words how it's saved my life many times. I'm still struggling with depression and overwhelmed with life and I try not to compare my life with people my age but I do it sometimes before I catch myself and it always makes me sad. I don't have a husband or child and I feel like I didn't amount to much. I hate showing my face in public and my hair doesn't really grow and everyone else's does and it makes me sad also. There are so many things that come easily to people that they don't even think about and that I struggle with that are just common sense. I don't want to be who I am. I am too different. I can't adapt even though I try and I don't belong anywhere not even in my own family. I never felt like I belonged and I wish I was never born.

As a fellow sufferer of depression and anxiety for over 50 years, I know first hand how these conditions can play havoc with your mind and your self esteem. I know too how hard it is to feel a sense of self worth when you don't really like yourself. But... the fact that you have asked for prayer is a sign that you have faith that God can turn your situation around and that is a wonderful first step to take. Please see a professional for your depression and anxiety and get that under control and then you will be better placed to deal with those feelings of worthlessness. You are a child of God, you are unique - learn to embrace your uniqueness and revel in it. Wouldn't it be terrible if we were all exactly the same? You are a special creation. May God bless you greatly, now and in the days to come.
Yes! Thank you. So true. Amen. God bless. Jo
Love, the things you are saying don't mean anything. You will not ever be good enough in your own mind. That is our biggest challenge as humans. We are our own worst enemies. I have so many terminal illnesses that life is what it is. I'm losing my hair, graying, etc with the meds I have to take to stay alive. I fight for others. Now also for myself. I want to give up. But we are all beautiful no matter what. Realize I have loved you and worried about you for years. You are truly the reason why I check in. Just for you. Please hold my hand in this hell. I so understand what you are saying and I feel like this is cruel. I have a death sentence. I've known for 6 years. I have about 10 years if that. I'm 35. I'm one sick girl. My mental health sucks. So the little things are everything like a star, they shine through. We must have bad to appreciate the good. And I can say I don't get much good but I am grateful for the mini wins. It's useless to dwell. Take each day as a new. Sometimes it's moment to moment. I keep coming back from the dead... I have a purpose. To be there for others. Why else would God keep sending me back here? I know exactly how you feel about life. It's crap and it is harder more and more it seems to me. I don't judge you. I understand and want you to know I feel you. I am your sister as you are mine. We have to vent. I'm so proud of you for being real. That is one thing you must see that you do thar most cannot do. Admit the truth of their innermost feelings. That is a strength not a weakness. Babe. You mean so much to me. Please realize people suck and here I am on your side. We are in this abyss together. So help me by being all the sides of you are. The good, bad, ugly. I am with you. I think of you constantly. You have to look at what good is in yourself and your world. Not just the bad. You are truly one of one. As am I. Together we have to make it through this life. I have family that are not blood. They give me more than I ever could have asked for. Sadly most of my family is gone, both good and bad. We are all struggling with our lives and emotions. Please don't let me be alone. I need you. I love you and want what is best for you. We all deserve it. You just have a special place in my heart I cannot ignore. Please forgive me for not being there more often for you. And know I am and will always be your sister and love you unconditionally. Jo
Wow Jo you are truly amazing - you’re going through hell yourself yet you’re reaching out to Flossy. The only reason I check in is because of Flossy but now it is also because of you. You’re a truly wonderful human being. May God bless you and our dear Flossy. 💕
It's what we do! So much love and blessings to you. To us all. We deserve it. We were given a gift that gets forgotten easily. The beauty of life. Look in the sky. Day or night. Miraculous isn't it. Take a moment for you to be just you in that moment. Clear it all and look up. That feeling is like love. But more. It's only meant for you. It's bliss and hold on to it when things get hard. Remember that moment of sheer freedom, joy, wholeness. And then continue on with whatever hardship you are dealing with. It's a beautiful thing. As are you. As we all are. We are all one but together we can truly make things easier for each other. Isn't that the whole point of being here? To help each other in that togetherness and forge bonds, love unconditionally and intentionally because we are capable. We all are beautiful creatures, period. We all have something to share with one another for a better understanding of what purposes we have. I hope everyone that reads this can strip the negativity of themselves for a moment and realize how amazing you are. No judgemental thoughts. Just acceptance of self love. You deserve it. Much love and blessings jo Amen.
You’re a good person Jo and everything you say is inspirational. Thank you. 💕

Our thoughts cause our emotions. Nothing outside of us causes our emotions. When you feel a certain way it is because there is a thought or a belief behind that feeling. Change every thought you have that is negative. Soon your brain will rewire- try it. 💕
Flossy you are unique and amazing. Your life is not over. You can have what your heart desires. You are a beautiful person and that shines through. You touch so many people’s lives so we are all grateful that you were born. One day it will pass and you will feel happy. May God bless you.💕
Flossy, I'm so glad to see your on here asking for prayers. I remember your prayers from a year ago. Everyone doesn't like something about themselves. I used to ask God why do I struggle with learning disabilities. Always putting myself down and compare to others. But now I'm older and wiser. I don't care about what others think. I do my best and move on. Keep your mind on what God says about you. He loves you and will never leave you. He made you for a reason and God doesn't make a mistake.
That's right. 🙏 amen
