Oh Linny, I cannot even begin to explain how much I need this right now. Seriously. I have been hit from every side and I am at the end of all that I have in me. Thank you.

I was just going to send you a message that one of my prayer requests from last time was answered today! My blood tests came back normal today, Praise the Lord!
Thank you for doing this, I'll be praying tomorrow!

I need to see the Lord in a big way in our family. It has been a heart wrenching year and I am totally worn out..I pray for others and see the Lord work in their lives, but in our family…NOTHING….Weary and having health stuff that is wearing me down…Thank you for the day of prayer and fasting…I will pray, but I am not able to fast tomorrow..
Love ya,
Sandy in NC

I am sooo overtired…and somehow I deleted yesterday evenings post while inadvertently writing this one…and somehow it gobbled it up and added the comments from that post into this one. How weird is that? Anyway, please post your requests here. Nite nite from Colorado…xo

We are having a family dinner, so I cannot fast all day, but I would be so grateful if you continue to pray the same two prayers.
– Physical heart healing in my son in law who has cardiomyopathy at 32 yr old. He and my daughter are expecting their first child.
– Spiritual heart healing in my beloved lastborn. 21 yr old. A great son, loving, funny, smart. But needs salvation.
Thanks so much!!

The scripture that says, "I have no greater desire than to know my children are walking in the truth," is SO true. Please pray that my young adult boys would begin walking in the truth they have been taught and know.
Also, please pray for a young friend named Kyle, as she goes through surgery for a brain tumor today.

We need Heathrow(UK's largest airport which has been running at reduced capacity because of unusual amount of snow we have had here in the UK,thousands have had their flight cancelled) to be reopened fully so my parents(whose google account I'm using to post dont have my own!) two sisters and brother can fly back in for the holidays from China where they live as volunteers. They really deserve a break and have just adopted for the third time my lovely little brother. Their flight is this Wednesday evening China time arriving Thursday morning UK time.

My family really needs this now. I would love some answers. I can handle whatever the answer, I just want to know. Sorry that is all I can say.

salvation for brother and his wife, and that the Lord would restore their marriage. Reconciliation with Mother in law, and for her salvation. Thank you!!

HI Linny~
My mama~in~love is in CCU, has been since last Thursday. 3 doctor opinions are she will have no quality of life one the machines come off. Basically, they feel she would be bed ridden with a trach and respirator, being fed thru feeding tubes. Mama never wanted to go into a home and never wanted to be hooked up to machines.

All she ever wanted was her 3 kids to be together and not fighting. That has happened. Monday night all 3 kids and all 4 grandkids were here with her wishing her a Merry Christmas and sharing precious memories. She knew we were here, I just know it. I stayed the night with her just to be close with her.

Tomorrow – Thursday her kids have decided to stop the machines.

I AM PRAYING JESUS COMES FOR HER BEFORE THEY HAVE TO DO THAT. I PRAYED ALL NIGHT LONG, PLEASE JESUS IF IT IS MAMA'S TAKE COME TAKE HER BEFORE HER KIDS HAVE TO GIVE THE GO AHEAD TO THE DOCTOR.

Please pray for mama, that there will be no suffering, that Jesus comes quickly for her.

Blessings,
Suzanne

I fasted yesterday. Tuesday's are my day, but I'm with you in prayers today. I've gotten Peter(hubby) to join me in fasting on Tuesdays, for our miserable, financial situation, that is basically sucking the life out of us. And also for the children on reece's rainbow. Specifically the ones who are out of time and are awaiting transfer to an institution. All the sweets on RR have Down syndrome and are living on borrowed time in Eastern European countries as they await a forever family.
So these will also be my request today.

Thank you Linny! Peter and I have seen first hand how fasting and prayer can be so powerful. it's all because of you and this great idea you got!!

Please pray for my sister and my dad – for a restored relationship for them. It's been a difficult week and it makes it even harder with Christmas in just a few days.

Thank you.

1. Our dossier is on its way to Ethiopia. The timing of our court date is a concern. We have another child having major surgery on March 24th. Recovery time is a couple of weeks. We really would like to have a court date prior to March 24th.

2. We still need to raise $13,000 for adoption fees and travel.

3. We continue to look for a home that will meet our families needs and future children. Our hearts desire is to continue adopting and loving children with special needs. Our home continues to be an obstacle for us.

a new job for my sweet husband …

I am joining you all in fasting and prayer. I ask prayer for
1. My house to sell. We have been trying to sell it for the better part of two years. We need more bedrooms.
2. A foster child of 10 that my sister has fostered is ready for a forever family. None of our family is in a position to take her and she deserves an incredible family.
3. One of my students has been placed on hospice. She is in the end stages of cerebral palsy.

Thank you for your prayers.

Linny, I am praying for a friend who is going to the doctor Friday to find out if the biopsy was cancer or not. Her husband was seriously injured in an accident 2 years ago and is brain injured. She has no other family, and has 2 small children. I am praying that God lets this pass from her. She has been through so much already.

I am also praying for our second adoption. We are adopting a 5 year old with CP from China

Linny,
Thank you for caring for others. We are in a battle…a spiritual battle. We need prayers for our 5 friends who we have been praying for. They need to know the Lord and 3 of them are going through major personal tragedies over Christmas. We are praying that the Lord is so real to them! That they may feel the Comforter.

Also we need prayers for our continued adoption. That God would open the path He wants us to follow.

I'll be praying for the others as well.
Loves sweet girl! Kim

Praying with you all and asking for your prayers regarding finances for our adoption (we need $3900 in the next three weeks) and that my grown children's hearts will be softened to accept God's will in our lives and welcome this new sibling joyfully. More about God's work in our lives is at: afamilyforfaith.blogspot.com

Thank you for today's post, Linny! We are here in Sevastopol, Ukraine in the midst of our 10 day waiting period to bring home our daughter. Our facilitator is on her way to the courthouse right now (8:15am CST) and it is possible that the judge will sign our court decree today instead of waiting until Friday. I am asking for prayer that God will impress upon this person's heart to approve our court decree so that we can apply for her birth certificate and passport tomorrow, then be able to start Embassy appts on Monday.

The prayers of this group are SO powerful – blessings to everyone here!

I will be praying throughout the day and evening for the requests listed here.
Please add:

My 25 yr old neice Heather who is in the throws of alcoholism and my brother and family who are devasted by this.

Thank you Linny for allowing us to share our hearts with others who care. My request is threefold.
1. That God would move and make a way for family to be together this Christmas season.
2. That God would reveal, direct, open doors to pursuing adoption of an older child.
3. That God would work out the release of over $17,000.00 owed me by a Christian school in G*rl*nd, TX. Long story-checks were lost, but after they were located, school has not made good on their promise to fund them. This would go a l-o-n-g way to funding an adoption and/or help others with theirs.
Thanks for allowing me to share burdens of my heart, that I cannot
"fix" on my own.
Christmas Blessings With Love to each of you.

Insurance coverage in the new year that was previously promised that now may be taken away unjustly. My financial burdens are great enough as is, without insurance I'll surely crumble.

I love this – thank you so much for doing it!:)

Please pray for our little boy waiting for us in Ethiopia. He is 3 months old and very very sick. He's been hospitalized twice now. We leave in 3 weeks to go meet him and will hopefully get to bring him home in February. Please pray for his healing…

Mama continues to decline. We just had our meeting with her doctor. She is requiring more and more assistance from all the machines.

Tomorrow they will disconnect and keep her comfortable. I am praying Jesus comes for her before that. PLEASE LORD JESUS COME FOR MAMA

At this time of the year, I know many of us feel this way, but I am overwhelmed with the "happiness" that should be. I look around and don't see how it all fits together and how I fit into it. This year has taken a toll on me and I have been trying to make lemonaide out of the lemons I have been given.
I lost my job in March and have found a "temporary" job that is always cutting hours now. I was told the position would become permanant, so I discontinued my unemployment benefits. Now we struggle to make ends meet with the reduced hours. I keep searching, knowing that I am going to find the correct fit for me. My husband has recently been told his 4 years of expereince for a professional license doesn't count and now has to re-start the process. Cash is a major concern, but we do have family to lean on. The problem with that is that the family feels that they can make ALL decisions concerning our lives, including what we give our children for Christmas. Just this morning my mother told me what I "needed" to do when I get home from work. (I am almost 40 years old and DO NOT live with them.)
Please pray the I can find the hapiness in the Season, and that my husband and I will get our work situations straightened out in 2011, and that I can find "freedom" from my parents control in my life.

Please pray for us as we wait for LOA for our almost 14 year old daughter in China. We still have many steps and they must be completed before March 18. Please also pray for our daughters transition as well as our family's. Thank you and I hope everyone has a Merry Christmas,

Please pray for our adoption journey – for finances, for time to pass quickly on the wait, for my fear of flying to completely disappear –

Please pray for my friend Suzanne – that her husband's heart be broken for the orphan and he would decide to move forward now.

Please pray for my friend Anna – that things would come together for her to proceed for an adoption of a child from Russia.

Please pray for my mother and sister and their families to find Christ.

Please pray for my friend Susan whose husband lost his job earlier this year and she lost her job Friday and they have four children to support.

Please pray for my mother in law to have healing in her heart after her husband left her last month.

And lets all pray for Linny's new ministry to rock this world.

Thanks Linny for giving us these opportunities to pray for each other.
I would appreciate prayer for a few things:
-I am having my wisdom teeth out in a few hours, and I'm nervous about this. Please pray the surgery goes well and that I will be calm.
-My parents are very close to becoming opened as foster parents, we just have a few more things to do around the home. Please pray that everything gets finished up quickly and smoothly.
-God's guidance in making some decisions, that I would do His will, and that He will show me what "His will" is.
Thanks everyone for your prayers.

My husband Tom lost his job on Monday. As of now he has another job lined up and will start in a week or so, but the fear that something will happen to it before then is creeping into my husband's mind. This happening just before Christmas is especially wonderful. 😉 Thank you!

Please pray for "Lea" that God will move her to make better decisions for her 2 young children! Thank you very much!

Thank you Linny for sharing that we might pray for each other!!!
My husband and I are in the process of adopting for the 3rd time. I am completely stressed about our money situation. I also just pray for the right children to come into our home. I have been so touched by some specific kids…I just pray His hand on our situation.
Also a situation with someone at our church…long story…which He is very aware of…LOL
Thank you again!
You are in my prayers!!
Merry Christmas

Thank you, Linny, for doing this. I would SO appreciate prayer for my health. I am not feeling well. Can't really pinpoint why, but I am just not feeling good. My bloodwork shows nothing wrong, but I beg to differ.!!! I am exhausted all the time, and have a lot of stomach problems, as well. It is so hard to get through each day, but we single moms don't really have a choice! 🙂

Thank you, everyone, for your prayers! I am thankful for you, and for my precious Saviour, who gave me the best gift of all…His life for my sin…praise the Lord!

Nancy in CT (mama to the marvelous ShaoXi)

I could really use some prayer right now. After the demise of my marriage last year, I became a single mom to my 4 kids and honestly things were so much better and I was actually happier. That was until I got involved with someone else…. I take responsibility for the decisions I made and now I am dealing with an unplanned pregnancy. I pray specifically that I will be surrounded by loving, grace giving, and supportive Christian women because I have no family. It seems like almost everyone I told has encouraged me to "look at my options". I never considered any options other than raising this baby, but it still hurts that people are so flippant about life. Also, I am going to tell my children about the baby on Christmas because I am already 14 weeks and showing a lot. I need the right words and to somehow express that although this baby was not conceived in a healthy way, it is a blessing. It needs to somehow be a lesson to them.
I also need prayer that the bio father will admit what he did was wrong {personal} and do what is best for the baby.
I am believing that there is a reason why God allowed all of this to happen and that this baby will be a huge blessing to me and possibly to others.
I also need strength and protection from the persecution, ridicule, and harsh words that I receive on a consistent basis.
Obviously I can't fast, but I will be in prayer for the needs posted here.

Hey there Linny and any one else reading this comment.

I've been asking God for healing in my body for a long time. I believe HE's my healer.

I'm moving ahead with Jesus confidently, running the race in obedience, praising, worshiping because HE is always worthy regardless of what He chooses to do in my life.

With that said, my request is for healing to manifest in my muscles so we can do more doors for orphans and widows. Plus, it will make Mark's life less burdened.

Hugs and prayers,
Lisa

Thank you, Linny. Please pray for me and my family. We have had a difficult year with a miscarriage, losing a beloved doggy and then in October my Daddy passed away. You prayed for him during his surgery in April 2009. I am especially requesting prayer for the relationships between parents/children in my home. There are some hard times and it hurts to have these hard feelings between people I love! I would really appreciate knowing many are praying for us.

The Lord led my husband and I to about 4 months ago to leave his job at our church. We had been praying and fasting about it for 8 months and the time finally came and the Lord said, go. So, we did. It was a good decision, all around.

Now we are looking for a new church, and a new job for my husband. The Lord has promised to provide, and He has. We haven't been without one time or even worried about finances once in these 4 months.

However, I am aching for a good, Bible-believing church to call our own and we still haven't found one yet. We live in a very dry area here, so many churches are just words and traditions. I just want people that want and love Jesus!

Also, my husband needs a job. When we pray and fast the Lord keeps saying, "wait". We feel like recently the feelings have shifted and He is going to provide soon, but we have no idea how. We've applied everywhere. Some many applications. Over 100. Not even one call back yet.

We are newly married, barely 16 months, we want to have babies, we want to have a house to put them in, we want to foster kids and adopt.

We had been living off of my husband's pay and putting mine completely into savings so we would have money to buy a house in Sept 2011. Now, that probably won't happen as we haven't been able to save much, having to live off of my income.

In any case, the Lord has been sweet and faithful. His plans are not ours and His are better than ours. So if babies and houses and such need to wait, they will. But I hope not. I know the Lord has called us to have children and I know He will provide for that. He is faithful.

But please pray that He would provide a job for my husband and a church for us soon.

Thanks.

I just got a call from my husband saying that our neighbor died last night. He had been sick with Lukemia for a long time. We were so hopeful that he would make it through Christmas for his family, but that was not to be. Please keep his family in your prayers. This is going to be a hard Christmas for them.

My sister is going through a tough time in her life. She has had a lot of pain at different points in her life. She has decided she needs to work through her emotions, and she wants to be happy – not angry. Please pray that she is transaparent with her emotions and feelings of the pain she is dealing with, that she is able to feel peace in her heart, and that she knows the God has a plan for her.

I'm leaving shortly for about a week and am not going to be able to say individual prayers for all of these requests, so if anyone wants to skip my request I totally understand 🙂 That said, I could use prayers of healing for my anxiety, as well as for family to open up their heart to God's love. Thanks and God Bless!

Thank you so much for being a place we can share prayer requests and pray for each other… we are finalizing our baby's adoption on Jan. 6th. We've had our daughter since June when she was 9 weeks old. We just got word from our amazing attorney yesterday, and he said that our baby's birthfather may not have gotten his papers served within the 20 days needed by our state before the court hearing. They've tried 4 times over the last couple months… there was one last chance he got them in time, we're just waiting to hear back to see if he got them. If not, we'll either have to A) move the hearing date or B) try to have him sign his consent before the hearing. We don't need his consent to proceed with the adoption, but it's the only way around him not getting the papers in time… We've waited SO long for this hearing, and have family flying in for the occasion, we are fervently praying it stays on Jan. 6th. We are praying he will communicate with us, we've tried several times to no avail. THANK YOU!

protection for my children's hearts.
God's direction and provision regarding adoption

Please pray for my aunt who died over the weekend, that she would rest in peace.

Please pray for my family, that God would guide us all to the end of the year and into the new year with joy, protection, provision, His continuing grace and love.

Please pray for the interviews I have coming up soon, that God would see me through them and I will succeed in them and gain excellent internship experiences in the coming year.

Thank God that we have all seen 2010 through, and thank Him for His love.

We are in the adoption process and are trying to patiently wait for the baby the Lord has for us. We want this time to go quickly. We want our family to grow.

Please pray for God to make a situation so black and white. I feel like he has shown me a glimpse of his plan and now just pray for it to be brought to life. thanks!

Once again, I don't know how, but I had no clue this was coming. I will be praying over these requests in the next couple days or so a few at a time.
My request is related to the 16 yr. old girl that we took in a month and a half ago. She's a really great girl and things are going quite well for the most part. My request, I guess, is that she has an easier time learning what family really is. She's none too happy with us that she will be spending the holidays with our extended families. (She doesn't have a lot of family and really has not much desire to see them.) She's used to doing whatever she wants, (thankfully, God has protected her, and she's never gotten in to trouble in any way) and I think she feels we're a little controlling. She would much rather be spending the entire week (and especially new years) with her friends whom she claims as her family because it was only her mom & her brother in the past. We've encouraged her to spend time with her friends (and especially her dad and brother,) but for Christmas, we consider this a family only time. (BTW, we are surprising her w/ a flight to her dad's for Christmas to see her brother.) Please pray that she has an easier time and learns what family really is. Please pray for us, as we've never had a teen before (our son is 4.)
One other thing is that my husband's family is very much against us taking her in. They claim to be Christians, but often their actions speak otherwise. They have been creating drama over this, and all Christmas plans with them are up in the air. Sorry this is so long. Thanks so much for your prayers!

I have a few. I so appreciate any and all prayers. They are buoying me right now. 🙂

1. My brother and his new wife and her daughter are in town. This is really hard for me. I literally just met them (obv other than my brother) last night when they got here. I am uncomfortable and have a very wrong attitude. My relationship with my brother is nonexistent, mostly because of several damaging years when we were younger. I started the ball rolling about a week ago, by sending him a letter…he had not responded yet. So, better attitude from me and more steps toward healing for my relationships in this situation.

2. My 3 month trip to Uganda…that I am supposed to leave for in less than 3 weeks, has hit some major snares. The enemy is trying to mess stuff up and I am now probably changing 98% of my plans. (Still hoping to go, but that's about all that is the same right now.) Praise in this is that I am not doing this alone and God has been showing me signs of His guidance and control. Pray for clarity, wisdom, and smoothness in plan transition.

3. There is a sweet HIV+ little girl that I have fallen in love with. I am not 25, nor will I be any time soon, so I cannot be her mommy, but I look at her and desperately want her forever family to find her. (I have posted about her on my blog, or you can contact me & I'll send you her Reece's Rainbow listing info.) Please pray that her family will come soon. My heart aches to make her my own, but I know that is not what is right for her, so I am determined to get her a family. 🙂

I've posted this request before but I am in desperate need of healing. I've been sick for 10 years with chronic fatigue syndrome and other issues. I feel so sick all the time, and it is such a struggle to care for my 2 young kids.

I've been to countless doctors and have spent insane amounts of money to try and get better. Nothing seems to really make a significant difference. I need direction, guidance and a miracle.

I also long to have more children (biologically and through adoption) I keep praying that God would take this desire away if it's not His will, but it remains- very strongly. It is so hard to live in this space right now.

thank you for your prayers. And thank you to Linny for organizing this.

Depression, anger, patience, peace.

THANK YOU!

I just found out that I may very well be laid off for 5 weeks from January 3rd until approximately Febuary 15th. While I may have some minimal hours, Its not looking too promising. While Im worried I feel like this situation may be a good thing somehow. Prayers regarding the whole situation would be appreciated!

We have a need for $700 to complete our home study. Please pray specifically that God will provide that. Thanks!

Asking prayer for myself and all my 30 something single friends who are waiting and praying for husbands, including Kellie, Lauren, Sarah, Jen, Jennifer, Jiyoung, Emily, Christine, Lisa, Ashley, and me, Julie.
Thanks, and I love reading your blog!

Prayers for wisdom on path to take. Have been in a tormentous marriage and recently husband put up our home for collateral to buy some property now worthless. To others he is kind and helpful and everyone believes his lies and nobody holds him accountable, including my pastor.

Please pray for my friend Erin who is 6 months pregnant and has found out that the daughter she is carring, named Raygen, has HLHS. Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrom.

Baby Raygen will require 3 open heart surgeries by the time she is 3 years old, the first one at days old.

Please pray that Erin will continute to draw closer to the Lord through this time, and that Raygen will make it through surgery!

-Sarah

I forgot to add something, a praise report, the 15 month old girl whom I shared that had 3rd degree burns from scalding water, good news, her toes are saved from being amputated!! she had repeated skin grafts on some parts of her feet, and there is a risk of infection… please pray that her skin will be healed speedily, and also for her family to grow in their relationship with our Saviour.

…

Also please ask Him to strengthen my trust in Him, regardless of whether or not He gives me His peace and presence.

Thank you so much! 🙂 I will pray for everyone here.

My heart is heavy after praying and fasting today as I go through these requests. God I pray that you will heal these families.
Ephesians 3:20-21
Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen.

If I am not too late for this, I would like prayer for healing. I have been sick with bronchitis (and maybe something else) and I am not getting better. I have been in bed straight for the last five days, but what bothers me the most is that I do not have the final gifts for my kids for Christmas. We don't do much, but we have our traditions. It is even more discouraging because we were all quite sick last year on Christmas and didn't get to do much together then either. I want to be able to get to the store and pick out items for my kids' stockings, but now I can't even get up to get a shower in. We had planned to have a birthday party for Jesus together tomorrow, but it looks like we will have to postpone that too. Thank you for your prayers.

My family is broken. Just over a year ago my sister leaves her husband of 18 years for the homosexual lifestyle. But she doesn't tell her 4 kids the truth, she doesn't tell her friends and fellow believers. She pretends nothing has changed and my family does the same. They are (we are) all hurting, they keep pretending around her and her kids. We are just broken. Reinventing how we do the Holidays is tough.

Need prayers to get the remaining finances for our adoption. We are adopting off the waitlist and pray we get the money so that they don't have to wait any longer. Once we have the money we can get a court date soon. I pray that the Lord helps us figure out to get the money to bring them home.

Please pray for me. I've had pain in my left breast for the last 3 weeks. I feel no lump. I am afraid to go to have it checked out because we are really close to getting the go-ahead to bring home our son, through adoption. A diagnosis of cancer would would completely stop our adoption. I am so anxious to bring our 3 year old son home. And terrified of what the pain could mean. Please pray that God would give me peace. Please pray however the Lord leads you about this.

Thanks, so much, for going before the Lord on my behalf!

hi bro…
thanks for your share..
if you want

UNAND's REPOSITORY

First a praise report – we are about 48 hours from arriving home from China with our son. The trip's been a dream, just wonderful and our son is even more wonderful. He's stubborn and strong-willed just as I would expect a survivor to be, but really just the sweetest personality.

OK, the prayer request: we want to be able to get an earlier flight home than we have which gets us into Tulsa at 10:43pm on Christmas Eve. There's one from Houston that will get us home at 9:20pm. If we can be on it, I would like to be on it. Also, since we're asking for big things, there are a ton of business first seats available on our overseas flight. We'd like to get upgraded…for free. 🙂 Never hurts to ask God right?

Please pray for my son Juan Pablo. He had tissue expanders put in his neck last week and one of them has been swelling. We need prayer against infection and the road ahead of us.
http://www.wiggsworld.com/juanpablo

Join me in praying for some friends of a friend who are in the process of adopting 2 downs children from the Ukraine. Both children are in need of medical treatment asap. Due to a few complications with different country governments they need to change their flight plans and are trying to raise the money to do so as quickly as they can.

Please pray for my daughter, she is Bi-polar and we are going through a difficult time with her. Also, we are seeking God's will in finding a new church to join.

When Gods People Pray Miracles Happen! Yesterday I posted Personal because I did not know how to word my prayer for others! God answered these requests! Mom of Many I am praying for your request!! Please pray for the people I will share Jesus with tomorrow at soup kitchen called Christs Kitchen.

My brother and sister-in-law do not know the Lord. I just can't imagine going to eternity without him (and her). Please pray that they would come to a knowledge of the reality of Jesus, as Savior and Lord.

Bless you for letting us bring our requests in this way.

I sit here crying from reading all of the posts before mine. Prayers going up for every single one of you!!! We are waiting for the final word of when we can go bring our baby girl home from Ethiopia. My prayer request is for all of the children in the orphanages…that God may hold them in His arms and let them know that their mommies and daddies are on their way. That our little girl will hear from God that we ARE coming back…we didn't leave her…she has not lost one more person in her life. Please help us pray that God's hands will move His people quickly so we can all get to our children.

Love and Peace,
kendra

I'm late to the party but just prayerfully read through all of the requests. Lord, move on our behalf!
Please pray for continued transition home for my baby girl and for my heart to welcome her wholly.
Deb

Personal, complicated and not much time to figure it all out.

God bless. I will be sure to read and pray over the list this weekend.

Getting in late here. Please Pray for continued healing for my 11 year old daughter who was diagnosed with a rare form of kidney cancer in 2009. Pray for our finances and also for my reluctant husband to open his heart to more children.

I'll be reading and lifting up all these requests!
Thank you
Lesa

Praying for a boy is about to age out on Feb 9. A family now wants to adopt him but there are many barriers. Praying for a God-sized miracle!

Linny,
I'm sorry this is so late, but I found out today that a fellow mom blogger/homeschooling parent lost their home to a fire just days before Christmas. I wasn't sure where to post this.
Her blog is http://www.lifeingraceblog.com/2010/12/the-god-who-promises.html
I hope it's not too painful for you to read, but could you please pray for her and her family?
I'm at a loss for words..
