Prayer Requests Thread

Requesting prayers for a friend with schizophrenia, who got sent to the psych ward 2 weeks ago for not taking his meds. No news from him since then. Really miss him, he's a good kid.

Additionally, that he takes his meds? I used to do the same, but it really just made my relationship with my family way worse. My life got better after I started taking them, even if I was hard against them before.

This is the most depressing thing I've read all month. In any sane society, this mother (who's not even the biological mother) would never see the outside of a madhouse. Lord have mercy.
 
I am at my wit's end and in the depths of despair. God has protected me from suicidal ideation, but I can feel myself slowly spiraling in that direction. The reasons are too complicated and personal for me to feel comfortable stating them here, but I would like to ask you all to pray that God may grant me strength, hope, humility and a desire to pray and confess.

Stay strong brother. I will keep you in my prayers tonight.

You're not alone. I too struggle with episodes of depression and despair. You must trust that God has a plan for us, even if it can be hard to see.

Lately I have found a lot of benefit by reading "Unseen Warfare". It teaches you to restrain the imagination, which is where such dark thoughts often originate. It also reminds us that if we stand patiently with God, victory over the passions is a certainty! No degree of despair is stronger than His grace. I highly recommend this book, and there are many other good Orthodox resources that teach you how to take back your mind from the devil.

 
Hey fellas, I'm in a bit of a bad spot and could use your prayers. It's not confirmed yet but it is very likely that I may have spontaneously developed some health issues that would cause me to be unable to do my job for an indeterminate length of time. Furthermore, until recovered I may not be able to do any job that requires physical labor or being on one's feet constantly, which will leave options slim on the table. This is coming at a pretty catastrophic moment in my personal life. Please pray for my health. My Christian name is James. Thank you.

Lord Jesus, we pray for James, we ask that you touch him with your healing hand. We ask that you provide for him if he is not able to work. We ask that there be a church body that will help him in this time of trial. Let the glories of your Gospel outshine the hardships he may endure, both in his body but most especially in his soul. In Jesus name, Amen.
