I pray for my wife. To find true love and happiness. Though she may be leaving me, I just want her to be happy and to live a good life even if I may no longer be in it. And I pray for my son. I ask the good Lord to be there for him and to guide him in the right direction. I will always try to be there as much as I can. Show my love for him everyday. And I pray for myself. Help me to fix this life that has been torn down and build it into something new for myself and my son. He deserves the best. Thank you.

Lord I come to you on this day to ask your help once again. It seems that we, as your children, come before you only when we need your help. But I come to you for strength, honor, and courage. The time I have been dreading has come before me. I need the strength to face and overcome this obstacle you have placed upon my path. I just ask that whatever I do is for the best for my family and my community. Please help me to finish my education, to fix my life so that one day in the future I may help others. You have put this fire in my heart for a reason and you have always been there for me. So I ask that I do not fail my family and I do not fail you.

My name is William Thompson. I am a senior at Arizona State University and I am requesting a prayer for strength and blessings. Since last year, when my son was born, I have had trouble maintaing a balance between family, school, and work. I have been forced to take loans out to continue school and have failed to finish my education. Both of my parents have sacrificed so much to help me and my family and it feels that I have failed them by not finishing school. To top it all off, I don't have the money to pay for my schooling this semester and I just hope that the road I am on now is the right one for myself, my family, and my community.
