Prayer Requests

[Miss_E3]

Thanks for your reply. before I was born my parents were part of an extremely strict Church that thought that you had to dress old fashioned and that woman could only be housewives and that girls couldn't go to college it was very legalistic and had a lot of man-made rules they left that church before I was born and I went to another church but it was still strict and my parents still believed a lot of the lies that the other church had told them they only left that church when they told my dad he wasn't allowed to have a mustache I'm upset because I know the Bible says to obey your parents but what about when they're telling you something that's not true I know in my heart that girls are allowed to wear pants and still be Christians right with God but my mom to this day believes that girls are not allowed to wear pants. but she's doing a lot better she goes to a different church now and she has told me that it wasn't right that she kicked me out when I was 16 and at the church didn't have the right reaction because I was still a child she goes to a more loving church now that isn't legalistic like that and even some of the woman go to the church service in pants there.
Also tbh I don't want surgery for that, my cousin had breast cancer & has no top either. I don't feel that I need to do that surgery, I'm already right with God as am & lots of girls are small anyway. Im really skinny & & since I'm starting to grow my hairstyle like a girl & starting to wear girls sports clothes I'm starting to look more like a girl anyway. I'm sure my future husband will love me as am & will forgive me for doing that surgery. after I got that surgery I was in my bed I heard God's voice say to me and " still love you". I want everyone on here to pray for me to for God to send me my future husband because when I was 13 years old he promised me my future husband in this poem he helps me right and I'd really like to share it with you guys.

oh there was a time in my life when I was broken he hurt me and words were left unspoken there was a voice inside my head that said without you I am dead but then I thought of what Jesus would have said I will heal your broken heart and mend those Fallen pieces back all those wasted thoughts on him when you could have been thinking of me or you were meant to live, to live a happy life you were meant to fall down on your knees for me you weren't made to cry to wish that you could die oh don't you know how much I love you? those boys are they worth it all those things they said, you don't know my plans for you, so why don't you wait and live for me instead, pray for wisdom and understanding not the boy with brown eyes and charm. I love you more than any other and I'm never going to do you harm!
you want me to make him the one for you forget about it he may live eternally but right now he's not right with me if you want real Joy read and pray start living for me 24 hours a day then your joy will be established and your thoughts will be brought back and your wounds and your heartache will be a thing of the past!

oh you were made for me and I was meant for you not that boy over there you're always talking to I'm a jealous God and your relationship with me should mean everything to you, oh boys may come and go but I'm never going to leave. If you really walk by faith then you will see the way and life will get better every single day and as the days go by you will look up in the sky and say God remember when I was broken and thought I never had enough when I thought life was a game and it wasn't fair my heart it had pieces missing everywhere! oh and when you finally find your way and give your all to me when you stop thinking of boys and start helping the people you see I'll surprise you with a gift that has two hands and two feet, a smile, a heart and a desire for me someone you can trust a man who will lead who's gentle and caring the one meant for you sent from me! so just be patient and don't worry because there really is no hurry when he's mature and ready I'll send him your way so you can live happily all of your days but now you must wait but don't wait in vain put your thoughts on me first and your soul will sustain and I will give you Joy!

so I wrote that poem when I was 13 and I'm still waiting for that boy and I believe that God still is going to be faithful to that promise for me regardless of the mistake that I had made and I met a boy from a volunteer Camp from Italy to summers ago in 2019 and I really liked him and he really liked me and I shared the gospel with him and all the youth at that volunteer Camp he's from a Catholic country obviously and I explained to him why the Catholic religion is not the truth and the real gospel message to him on Instagram two months before his country went into lockdown and he wasn't even allowed to go for walks for 2 months because of the coronavirus and I told him the truth is we could die tomorrow I could get hit by a car you could catch the coronavirus and that's why it's important to get right with God right now I was really sharing my faith with him and I said I don't know why I'm doing this I don't normally share my faith so much with others but God urge me too and I told him to be bold and to be brave and that King David was just a young boy when he defeated Goliath and I even sent him a photo from superbook saying may God protect you and your family and friends two months later the coronavirus showed up in his country so he probably thought it was crazy but then when the coronavirus went to his country like that he might have had a second thought of what I told him I'm still praying for him to become a Christian because 2 years ago I found out about the superbook ministries and that Ministry really helped heal me because I saw that Joy had a normal girl haircut and Chris was being so nice to Joy in the show and a lot of boys in my life growing up were really mean to me so I saw from the show that there is Christian boys out there who treat girls kindly with respect so I prayed for God to send me a boy who looks like Chris from superbook and this boy is a soccer player who looks just like Chris from superbook but he's not a Christian so it's not him but I thought maybe he was the boy God promised me because he did look like Chris from superbook and that was my prayer it was a boy who looks like Chris but I need a boy who looks like Chris on the inside and out who is a born again Christian not a Catholic. Besides he's not even really a Catholic he doesn't live as a person who believes in God I'm praying for him and his family and friends to accept God and for me to get over him because God wants me to marry a Christian. Thanks for your reply

[John_Otterblast]

Wow. I am praying for you. I am sure God has and will continue to use your testimony in incredible ways.

[Miss_E3]

Thanks for reply, I will pray for you & your friend too. I hope things work out for you & Gloria, at least you acknowledge your struggle with the sin your dealing with & want to turn away from it. There's people who love their sin, don't care about changing it. I'm happy that your honest enough with yourself & others to admit you need prayers to slay this dragon!

[Micah_Wellpride]

praying also

[Eerie_Coppernight]

Your story makes me so glad.

I'm happy you're learning that God loves you. That church your parents went to is the reason God tells us not to add on to His scriptures.

@Danyul_Braziervest, I'd like to give you this. If you've already heard it, let me know.

You should come join the Bible Reading Challenge!

[Miss_E3]

Thanks but I've already been reading my Bible everyday for 4 years and I usually read more than what the challenge is requesting and I like to read my Bible from beginning to end and every time I read it I buy myself a new study Bible & give the old one away. Actually the fastest I've ever read the Bible through is with the aetherlight Bible ( usually it takes me 6 months ) I read the whole entire Bible in two months & I just finished it two weeks ago and it was the aetherlight Bible I saw on Christianbookstore.com is how I actually found out about the game. because I just finished reading the adventure Bible and wanted to buy a new study Bible and I saw the aetherlight. I'm really happy I found out about it because I really like playing the game & the forums is cool too!

and she replied. "hey dummie, aetherlitght was an acid trip my guy im like way different [lol], like... im gay haha still a christian tho

This is horrible to hear. Very saddening. We got to pray for her, guys.

[Danyul_Braziervest]

This is so frustrating to me. It's like I can put myself into her shoes and understand her needs and desires. I started believing in the Gospel before I fell into sexual sins, and I have had thoughts of maybe I could live a Christian life with a gay identity. The problem though, is that there are lies, emptiness, and downright perverted aspects of being gay.

Gay people are happier being true to themselves when they come out. False. There are plenty of broken relationships in the gay community, even in marriages.

God is a God of love and will accept you for who you are. This is true, but it fatally ignores God's HOLY character. God is loving, ONLY because He is Holy and Perfect. So, He must turn us away from our sinful behavior to become more like Him. He doesn't just accept us, He will shape us into the best verstions of ourselves, and that is without an identity (or idol) in something fleeting as attractions to the same sex.

I could go on, but y'all get the point.

I have a whole group of friends of Christians irl, but it would be strange to talk about this in that group chat. Thank you for this space where I can talk about this conflicting issue.

acid trip

Some people find acid enjoyable. But seriously that is very saddening and I never would of thought that about Stan.

[Miss_E3]

Hey guys idk if you don't already know but over 4 million people in the whole state of Texas are with out power, heat & water in freezing conditions after a major storm. They've been out of power since Monday. Some people are even freezing to death in their homes & some are getting carbon monoxide poisoning from their cars, trying to keep warm. Pray for Texas to not only get through this but to call upon the name of the Lord Jesus Christ!

[Creationary_Keyshimmy]

I need prayer, I just am stressed. I know it is not as prominent as other things that need to be prayed for. But I have bottled up a lot of feelings in 2020. I was left behind by a brother, thought I had found love but I didn't, was really worried about this nation, I am bogged down in school and am falling behind, and feel like giving in. I feel like a failure. And am just so tired and frustrated, there is not that has gone by for months that I have not been worried and stressed. We also lost a dog we had been raising for five months, just for it to have be put down, because of horrible seizures. Not only that but my mother is very sick, and I don't have enough faith to trust in healing. I was getting closer to God a few weeks ago, but I just lost that too. I am just so tired, I want to relax one day, but that never happens. I am just worn. I can't wait for the light at the end of the tunnel. I want to have freedom, hope, and peace. But I don't. I need help...

[Creel_Lenslook]

Shimmy! I'll definitely be praying. If there is anything you need let me know! Just know that God cares very deeply for you. Even though you have drifted away. Also trust me you are not a failure. Just because you are behind does not mean you are a failure. So far you have succeeded in being an amazing friend! and you have succeeded in many other things.

[Miss_E3]

Matthew 11:28
“Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest.”

Praying for you to find rest during stressful times.

[caleb_Larkmagnet1]

Hey man, I just read an encouraging passage from II Samuel 22. I encourage you to read it.

[Sarah_Flatdash]

I’ll be praying for everyone who needs prayer. Remember to read your Bibles and pray lots about you problems. God can really help you through rough times.

[Shadow_Darksong]

I need Prayer... I am in a very challenging time period. Family issues. I am also therefor thinking about God and why he would allow this to happen. I still believe in him, but does he care? I am thinking of a answer to this question.

-- @Shadow_Darksong

[Lucas_Dibblevest]

Pray for the people in Texas. (I do not live there.)

[Shadow_Darksong]

I do regularly.

[Eerie_Coppernight]

I still believe in him, but does he care?

Let me assure you, He does care. Let me also assure you that you will emerge from this stronger than before. The iron may dislike the forge and the anvil, but it will never be a sword if it does not go through them. Trust the Blacksmith, He knows what He's doing.
