First I would like to send my gratitude to all those that have been praying for me, and a special thank you to the admins of this site. Reading your responses to the prayer requests lifts my spirits and I pray in Jesus Name that this ministry is blessed and souls are saved because of it. Now I would ask that you continue to pray for my health, as I am still not completely over this long COVID (my name is Lori, btw). I tend to feel better in the evenings for some reason, but the mornings and early afternoons I am so drained and weak. I've been reading my Bible every day and I feel that the Lord is allowing this sickness to refine me and teach me perseverance. Please pray for His strength to keep me going. Please pray for my daughter, my husband, my sister and brother, my grandchildren, my step-daughter, and other family members to turn to Jesus and be saved. So many of them are dealing with issues such as alcoholism, anxiety and depression, being angry at God for turning His back on them, adultery and sadly, witchcraft. They need God to intervene, and I know that it is His will that no one should perish. I know that He hears our prayers, but I also feel that the more people that are praying the more He acts. I, myself deal with anxiety, and due to the fact that it is also a symptom of long COVID, I've been dealing with a double dose, so to speak. My husband professes to be a Christian ( and I say this with all humility because I know I am far from perfect), but there just isn't any good fruit there. I pray that if he is indeed saved, that God will give him a new heart. One filled with love, peace, joy, kindness, and giving, and that he would be the man that God created him to be. Please also pray that God will lead us to the church that He wants us to grow in. We haven't been to church in years, and I know that is important. I need good Christian friends that I can confess my sins to and look up to. Someone who will love to be around me and not be afraid to call me out on any sin. I would like to add a short testimony, just so you know a bit about where I'm coming from. I grew up in church from before I can remember. When I was little I loved Jesus with all my heart and when I was 4 I asked Him to come into my heart and save me. Only about a year and a half ago did I realize that I was just too young to fully understand repentance. I spent my teen years just trying to "fit in" and most of my adult life I lived like the world. I thought that I was saved, so at least when I die I'd go to heaven. Then one day as I was complaining about certain religions and how you can just live however you want, ask for forgiveness and just continue living the same way, I finally realized that's how I'd been living my entire life. I prayed and repented of my sins, and I know I am a different person than I used to be, but since then I've been sick for most of this last year and unable to go to church. I would like to get baptized (for real this time), and profess to a group of witnesses my belief in Christ Jesus. Sorry for such a long message. Please keep me in your prayers if you think about it. Thank you all so much and God bless!
