Heartbroken. I’m struggling with forgiving myself for failing so miserably as a wife that my marriage ended after 17 years. It’s been 10 years since the divorce and I was able to bury my pain and emotions until now. But now, all of it is surfacing and I’m being forced to deal with the pain and rejection. I still don’t understand why God did not answer my prayers to save my marriage. I sought Biblical counseling, prayed, begged, sought Godly advice and did everything that was recommended. My husband had so much anger directed at me. When I asked why he was so angry with me he said, “You repulse me.” I still have not recovered from that. I loved him with my whole heart and wanted so desperately for my love to be reciprocated. I sought God in my marriage. I prayed, studied the Bible, went to church and small group meetings and sought to be a woman of noble character. The end result? I make my husband gag because he is so disgusted with me. I still struggle to find myself worthy of God's love and forgiveness. I don’t feel I’m worthy of anyone’s love. I feel like a failure as a Christian, a wife, and a woman. I’m angry at God, angry at my ex, and angry with myself. I don’t know how to keep living. I don’t know how to find value and worth in myself. I am so heartbroken and my spirit is crushed. Please pray for me however God directs you.

Please pray for me. Pray that I would find joy in the little things. Pray that I would be grateful for all I have. Pray that I would be able to bless others. Pray that I would be an encouragement to my family. Pray that I would put my trust in God and know His peace and comfort. Thank you.

Please pray for my 15 year old son that he would seek to know God, recognize his need for a Savior and become a believer.

Please pray that God would provide for our needs and help us to honor our debts. Pray that we will be blessed so that we might bless others. God has given me a precious dream that I have hidden in my heart. I have no idea how he wants me to proceed and it seems so outrageous that I can't imagine it coming true. But if it does, I will be able to provide food and shelter for others in need. Pray that God would guide my steps and show me how to begin.

Dear Lord, thank you for showing me the true meaning of Christmas. Thank you for giving me this year of poor health, limited finances and the loss of my father. Because of these hardships, I have learned to lean on you. I've learned what is really important and I've learned that true joy is not dependent on our circumstances. True joy is in the people and the home that surround the Christmas tree, not in the gifts that lie beneath it.

Please pray that I would be able to leave my burdens at the foot of the cross. I really struggle with believing that God really cares about my problems. I feel so unworthy of His love. I know in my head that He is good, but my heart won't let Him in. I'm too scared of rejection. If I turn everything over to Him and He doesn't provide, I will be devastated. I'm scared of losing my last hope. If God isn't real and doesn't care for me, I will have nothing left.

Pray for my job please. Pray that God intervenes & provides for me and my family.

My Dearest Lord. Please intervene at work. Only through your grace will I get the raise and promotion I need and deserve. Help for the right people to recognize my talents, my dedication and my discipline. Guide me in the choices I make at work daily and allow me to impress the people that count. Only you can overcome the evil that is present. I pray for those folks at work that are full of anger, jealousy, spite and malice. I pray that you will bring me into a job with folks that build each other up, not tear each other down. I pray that your spirit would fill my cubicle and that Satan would have no power in my work space. Protect me and guide me to show your love to everyone I come in contact with. You have to provide here, Lord. Everything is so crazy and it is easy to get lost in the shuffle. You must help me stand out and make a great impression to the right folks at the right time. Please help me, Father.

Please pray for me. I am sick. I have been sick for several years and seen many doctors. No one has been able to diagnose my core problem. Please pray that my case would become a priority to one of my doctors and that they would have compassion and a desire to get to the root of the problem. I'm tired of begging for help. I am scared that something is seriously wrong. My son needs me and I want to be around to see him grow up. If I could just get a diagnosis, I could cope, I could plan for the future and I would know how to pray more specifically.

Please pray for me. Pray that I would be able to provide a Thanksgiving and Christmas for my family that will honor God. Pray that my home will be a place where everyone feels comfortable, welcome and blessed. Pray that God's spirit would surround my home and that He would give me the health, the energy and the resources to make it a beautiful, cozy place to spend the holidays. My family is hurting from the death of my father and other friends need a place to feel at home and loved. I want my home to be the place where they can exhale and feel God's comfort. I don't have elegant dishes or extravagant decorations, but I can provide a clean place and a warm meal with God's grace. I can't give much for gifts this year. So, please pray that God would give me the inspiration, the time and energy to make gifts for the people I love. Pray that I would keep my job as the new year starts and that perhaps I would make enough this year to be able to provide for my son and I and that I would be able to bless others.
