just a prayer request because that's all I can write as of now.

Hi, guys.

     I haven't written in a week because this week, I've felt so much and nothing at all at the same time. I had a bit of writer's block; it wasn't that I didn't know what to say, but I was at a loss for how to say it. So today, I just have a prayer request.

     I went to the beach for a weekend, at which time I thought I would have wi-fi but did not. I had a few things to turn in/prepare and, since I attend school online, that's a problem. A big problem. I think God was telling me to just "be still and know that he is God," and to take a break. Which was good. But now I'm back and gosh darn it, I have so much work! I don't even know where to start. Could y'all pray that I would be able to prioritize, get it all done, and have peace about all of it?

     Thanks a million.

Please tell me what you need prayer for in the comment section if you wish to publish your request in that manner... :)

     Praise Jesus! He is so good. My aunt MaryAnn (I mentioned that she was very sick in this post), although she is still sick, is doing much better. The doctors said her healing is a miracle. :) Thank you for all your prayers. God is VERY GOOD. :)

And he went throughout all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues and proclaiming the gospel of the kingdom and healing every disease and every affliction among the people.

Matthew 4:23

Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good,  for his steadfast love endures forever.

Psalm 136:1

a prayer request

Hi everyone,

If you pray, could you please pray for my great-aunt who's sick? Her name is Mary Ann and she is in critical condition. It's possible that she could pass away very soon. It's extremely hard on me and my entire family, as we are all very close to her.

Thank you so much.

Money/Prayer Request

      My sister, Ellie, is going on a missions trip to Guatemala this summer. She has had such faith in God in all areas of this trip and the preparation necessary for it. She still needs quite a bit of money to go,  but she has total faith that God will provide it.
     So - if you feel called to do this, could you please donate some money to Ellie's mission trip? If you would like to donate, please comment on this post and let me know, and I'll pass it on to Ellie so you and her can get in touch. Also, if you would like to have your pictures taken as well as donate money, you can pay $100 for a photoshoot by Ellie (of Ellie Be Photography), the proceeds from which will all go to Ellie's trip. You can get more details about that here, as well as information about how much money she needs and when she needs it by.
     Whether you feel called to give financially or not, your prayers for Ellie would be appreciated. :)

     Thank you for considering!

a prayer answered

Argghhh!!! This isn't a post about Worthy. I am SO busy with school and the like that I have not found the time to finish that long-ish post. :) I promise it's coming soon, but while I'm waiting for a chance to finish it, I thought I would just share something that happened last night at a 10:31 meeting (10:31 is my church's youth ministry).

After the meeting, one of my friends asked me and another friend to pray for her. Then we all started sharing prayer requests, and we prayed for each other and just talked about God. :) It was SO encouraging, and the answer to a prayer I have been praying for a while. I've asked God to help me to talk about him with my friends, because he doesn't come up nearly as often as he should in our conversation, and sometimes it can be awkward when he does. But last night wasn't awkward at all. I'm so thankful that God answers prayer!!!

Remember this post, when I asked you if you could pray for  Worthy, my church's annual youth retreat? Well, the retreat is tomorrow, so I won't be posting for at least a week. I'm sure I will learn amazing things there, though, and I will try to post them.

If you think of it, please click on the link above and pray for the retreat. Thanks so much!

A Prayer Request

Hi everyone!

I just wanted to ask you all if you could pray for Worthy, my church's annual youth retreat coming up (probably to which many of you are going). Could you please pray that the Holy Spirit would be present there, that we would grow in our faith, and that many would be drawn to Christ during the retreat?

Thanks so much!

Sarah :)
