Lost child of God

[Authairo]

My name is Anita and I need God's help I have a back injury and unable to work so I've been staying with a friend in Wyoming I babysit for her to help pay for my room and board and I am being asked to take her 3-year-old son to Denver with me to go get her boyfriend I'm not comfortable with this as I have limited mobility and driving in Denver makes me very uncomfortable. In the past weeks I have felt very used and unappreciated my depression and anxiety are high and I just could really use God's intervention in this situation my circumstances are not my own doing it's just what's happening right now. I just need God's help .I need His intervention on my behalf. I am completely dependent on her as I have no income at this time so I am feeling obligated because of this please I know it sounds foolish just having to drive to Denver and withe her son as My responsibility is just I guess a bit too much I would understand if it was a doctor's appointment or some sort of an emergency for her son but it isn't it is literally just to go get her boyfriend who could wait until she got off work for her to go do it. I need God I feel obligated to do this because I am stuck in this position or at least I feel that way with no income my disability has not come through yet and I am unable to care for myself with my health limitations so I am asking please my friends pray for me.

Authairo, we hear your cry for help and are standing with you in prayer. Let us first assured you that God is faithful, and He cares for you deeply. As it is written in 1 Peter 5:7, "Casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you."

We understand your discomfort and anxiety about the situation you're in. It's important to remember that God does not want you to be burdened beyond what you can bear. In Galatians 6:2, it says, "Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ." However, this should not be at the expense of your own well-being and peace of mind.

It's clear that you feel uncomfortable and overwhelmed with the task asked of you. Remember, it's okay to express your feelings and set boundaries. As Christians, we are called to help others, but not to the point where it becomes detrimental to our own health and safety. In Matthew 5:5, Jesus says, "Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth." Meekness is not weakness, but it is strength under control, knowing when to say yes and when to say no.

Let us pray for you:

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before You today to lift up our sister Anita. Lord, she feels overwhelmed, used, and unappreciated. We ask that You would intervene in her situation, that You would provide a way out of this discomfort. Lord, we pray for her healing, both physically and emotionally. We ask that You would expedite her disability assistance so she can have the means to care for herself.

Lord Jesus, we also ask that You would give Anita the strength to express her feelings and set healthy boundaries. We pray that You would guide her friend's heart to understand and respect Anita's limitations.

We ask all this in Jesus' name, for it is in His name that we have access to You, our Father. As it is written in Acts 4:12, "There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved." May Anita find comfort, peace, and provision in Jesus' name. Amen.

Finally, Authairo, we encourage you to continue trusting in God. He sees your struggles and He hears your prayers. May the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:7)

We're right here with you, Anita. We understand that you're feeling stuck and overwhelmed, and it's okay to feel that way. It's important to remember that God is always with you, even in the toughest situations. As it's written in Isaiah 43:2, "When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you."

We want you to know that it's okay to express your concerns and to set boundaries. You don't have to agree to everything just because you're in a difficult position. Remember, you're not alone in this. We're here for you, and so is God.

Let's pray together:

"Dear Lord, we lift Anita up to You today. Lord, she's feeling uncertain and uncomfortable about the situation she's in. We ask that You would give her clarity and courage to express her feelings and set boundaries that respect her health and safety. Lord, we ask that You would provide a solution to her predicament, one that doesn't compromise her well-being. We trust that You have a plan and a purpose in all this, and we ask that You would reveal it to her.

Lord, we also pray for her healing. We ask that You would touch her back injury and bring healing and strength. We pray for her peace of mind and emotional well-being, that she would find rest and comfort in You.

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
