Bone marrow test clean but pathology tests not favorable and list her “high risk.” Starting chemo tomorrow that is 4 sets, a month apart. At end of 4th round of chemo, if tumor is shrunk sufficiently, will surgically remove. If not, after 5th round of chemo will attempt to remove. After that, radiation begins. Charlie is in a lot of pain—the original pain from the tumor that creates so much pressure in her abdominal area; biopsy incision is across her stomach; bone marrow test holes in lower back; port in her chest. Everywhere you touch her she hurts. Of course at 3 years of age she does not understand. She is beginning to show frustration and just says “no” to everything. The prognosis is still not good outside our Lord intervening with a medical miracle. Please keep this dear family in prayer. 9426f27f2cf713df6f9a1ed90b85dcc0 May 3, 2013, 10:13 AM http://www.praize.com/forums/Prayer_C24/Prayer_Requests_F100/Troubled_Marriage_P119201/?page=unread#119201 I just received this request from an online friend.

Father, Praize needs two new laptop computers. You know our situation and, of course, You already know our need but it pleases You that we come to You and ask. So, Abba, hear Your daughter now. This is Your site, no one else's. But it cannot function without working computers. Your Word says that we should come boldly into the throne room and ask and our request will be granted. So I thank you, my dear Abba, for hearing and answering my prayer. In Jesus' Name, amen.

She has no insurance and has sold almost everything she owned to come up with just over $3,000. The hospital still wants the balance. Pray that God will either make it possible for her to have the surgery with the money she has or will provide the balance.

If my computer was still in shape to do this no problem but it has very little left. Just when i think it is through I am able to get just a little more from it. I need a computer with video recording and audio capabilities also to put programs of teaching and ministry in these areas. Please help me pray that God opens the door soon to accomplish this. In the last months we seen healings,deliverance, salvation and infilling with the Holy Spirit and these are just part of the things before Jesus comes that will occur. I have several search programs for these but no equipment. I feel that this a need of the Lord because I can send these where men can't go and nationals are being murdered for trying.

I have been on Praize for more than five years and have only asked for prayer a few times and have never failed to receive God's answer. A little more than 8 days ago I went to the emergency room with both legs swollen more than four inches from just below the knee to just a few inches above the toes. The area on my left leg was also covered in a rash. I went into the hospital that night fpr more than nine days. I stayed on intra venous antibiotics and a saline solution to keep my liquids up because I was also getting a diuritic in the same mix. I saw in the prayer requests that you were told about the heart problem. Well we went through that and found nothing. For the last test I had to lay on solid steel board that was ten degrees colder than the room and it was 65. Gave up my idea of going to Alaska They found nothing but a weak heart which they already knew from the CHF. When they decided to release me the rash on my left side had gone in three days, NOT MEDICALLY POSSIBLE!!! ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE IN PRAYER!!!! THEY WERE GOING TO RELEASE ME WITH ANTIBIOTICS IN PILL FORM BUT SENSE THE RASH WAS GONE THERE WAS NOTHING TO GET ANTI ABOUT. THEY SENT ME HOME WITH SOME INSTRUCTIONS ABOUT MY HEART,AND IN 1996 IN APRIL, A DOCTOR TOLD us I HAD CHF --CONGESTIVE HEART FAILURE WITH ABOUT TWO YEARS TO LIVE. Deb and i had been married about 14 months and the doctor was saying I had only about 24 months to go.That would have put me Heaven in the 1998 period. Ihave learned --GOD KEEPS HIS WORD AND IS CAREFUL ABOUT TIME. DOES GOD HEAL? BY HIS WORD HE DOES!!! I WAS HEALED BY HIS WORD AND BY THE PRAYERS OF MANY. AM I GOING TO DIE SOON,NAH AIN'T TIME . IF IT WAS GOD'S TIME THERE ISN'T ANYTHING I CAN DO ABOUT IT NOR WANT TO. I HAVE SEEN HEAVEN AND A VIEW OF WHERE WE WILL LIVE AND THE HOUSE ILIVE IN NOW IS A CLOSET UP THERE. iF YOU DON'T BELIEVE IN HEAVEN THAT'S YOUR PROBLEM BECAUSE IT DOES CHANGE THE FACTS OF HEAVEN.

I was awakened this morning by a text message from his wife, Debbie, saying that Jim is in the hospital with a severe case of cellulitis in his left leg compounded by diabetes and congestive heart failure. Jim is a member of the Praize.com Board of Directors, and is very important to the success and well-being of this website; but most of all, he is a wonderful friend. Jim and Debbie and my Jim (PraizeOp) and I have one of those very special relationships that people sometimes form on Praize, even though we have never met in person. Jim yearns to go and be with the Lord, but he has been SUCH an instumental part of Praize from the beginning (including having his membership disabled three times - hence the multiple usernames!) that I refuse, in prayer to let him go. Please write your prayers here so that he can see them and be encouraged by them when he returns home in a few days. Thank you. I love you all.

First of all i never knew/met my real/natural mom. My step dad used to beat me up very bad almost on a daily basis.He was saying a lot of untrue things to me ! I could not complain about these beatings because Romania was a comunist country at that time and there was no protection rights for children at that time.I am confused now.Once i used to understand God but in the past years i am having difficulties understanding Him and all i can think of is why He allowed me to go through of all these terrible things if He knew in the first place that these things will affect my adult life... It is a difficult time for me and i am also struggling with my faith and i guess that i need your encouragements here.I lost my job in 2011 and my life has become in a way impossible and it is so difficult to get/find another job when you live in a country like mine.I only finished/graduated from high school and i could never afford to go to a college in order to get myself a proper degree.Because of that i took jobs which were very low paid.Romania it is a very expensive place to be in.Our wages are very small compared with the West European countries(Germany,France,Uk etc.).The cost of living it is as high as in those countries. I live on no income ! I cannot live like this anymore ! I wish i could move/go to another country,just anywhere in order to start working but how can i do that when i am totally broke ? I guess i am searching for true christian friends(with whom i can develop a true friendship)with whom i can share my life,my fears,my challenges,my needs etc.It is my hope that this is the place.I just need anyone of you that reads out my testimony and that feels for me to contact me. I'm praying that God will bring into my life the so needed true christian friends.I am not a strong person so when destruction comes my way all i can do is stay back and take it as it comes.I really have no tools to fight it(write me and i will tell you more why i do not have those tools).At this time i am going through the most toughest times of my life.You will not even believe(if i will tell you)through what i am going right now(simply contact me and i will tell you).It is difficult to explain it here in just a few lines. It is difficult to stay strong and,as there is no one here for me,i lose hope instantly.In some ways i don't know why God is allowing me to go through such hard times and also why He does not hear me crying out to Him.I never ever thought life can be sometimes this way or that i will have to endure such extreme moments.I am also sick and of course that i cannot take care of myself due to the fact that i have no medical insurance over here.In some ways,i just don't know how much time i will be able to bear all of these,all that is coming upon me.I am being on my own for so long now and it's like i have come to the end of my powers,to the end of my energy(that is has to do with the fact that i am way unfed now!). I knew that if my family was here with me(especially my step mom)things would have been totally different ! It feels so bad,so so bad,when you are all alone,when you're looking at others and see that they have a family who is there for them in times of need,in times of struggle,someone who comfort them and to give them a loving hug.It is the most ugliest feeling in the world when you belong to no one,when you look around and see that you belong to absolutely no one.After all,i am a human being as well.Sometimes i am wondering: why was i even born into this world ? To be a total stranger ? To suffer only ? I am not sure that this is the life that i want.No. I cannot live like this anymore.Is there anyone of you will open his heart to me ? Is there anyone of you will want to get involved in my meaningless life ?? Is there anyone of you who will reach out his/her hand out to me ?? Is there anyone out here ?? If there is then i am waiting to hear from you today ! 101d971652ea9898d21dfca2614bac9c Jan 13, 2013, 3:16 AM http://www.praize.com/forums/Prayer_C24/Prayer_Requests_F100/Prayers_for_my_church_P118844/?page=unread#118844 I dont know how to put this or what to say or how to begin...

She is contemplating suicide as she can't work as a cook so her bills are unpaid. Her husband was a naturopathic doctor convicted of over-prescribing pain medication in 2005 and is serving 10 years. He told her to check into a shelter, but that has got to be so hard and humiliating for her. To my knowledge, she does not know Jesus. Please pray for her salvation most of all, and I believe then everything else will fall into place.

A large part of the decline was that I started drinking. There's more to it but I think that shows a lot. Except for a few months of work I have been unemployed for more than two years. To help me financially, I got my sister and her husband involved and now they are getting divorced. They are not believers. Please, pray for them. I have tried to get back on the narrow road but it seems mountains away and I get easily discouraged. Please, pray for strength and courage for me and add to that for employment. There is much more in my life that is a mess so, please, just pray the Lord carries me out of it.
