  1. I am being debilitated by OCD and intrusive thoughts. They cause fear, anxiety, panic attacks. I pray and pray and don’t want to feel this way anymore. It makes you not feel worthy of God’s love or even life. I just want to find happiness and joy again. I keep beating myself up for past mistakes although we are supposed to allow Jesus to forgive them and no longer hold onto them. I want to give over my life completely to God and His will. Just needing prayers that this goes away so I can feel somewhat normal again

    • Angel I am praying for you.. I know the feeling that you have I share them too. May God hear your prayers and ease your mind and soul . Peace to you …

    • I pray that God moves in you. God is your strength and he does remove all your sins. It is the devil who keeps reminding us but God gave us authority over the devil so each time you get a thought say a prayed and order the devil to leave your mind. Surround yourself with good things esp scripture I often go to Pinterest which provides me with continuous scripture images and prayers. Read the bible. Tall to other Christians. The more you surround yourself with the lord your stronger you will feel. I am praying for you

    • You will get there Angel… to that place of peace in the Lord. But let him do the work. Let him take over your heart with his abundant love. Let it all go into the hands of Jesus.

      Set the captives free O Lord… bring clarity and peace to Angel… heal the wounds and soothe the soul O Lord…

      I will be praying for you!

  2. I recently had the police dispatched to my house to involuntarily take my mom to the hospital. Im 24 and terrified of her. I stay for my 10 year old sister, whom she torments mentally and emotionally. To my dismay my mom was released and she is back home. The source of her cruelty is her lover. He left while she was hospitalized and when she came out the first thing she did was search for him, and now theyre back together. I don’t want this man to come back, and if she wants leave, I’d rather she leave with him. Mom has attacked me before and cops were called to get her off me. She tells my sister that she is the reason my mom is dying – though there is nothing medically wrong with her (but try explaining that to a crying child). I need help. I need a miracle. I am tired of living in fear, of not sleeping because my mom might run away and steel my sister and who know where she’ll leave her. I need prayers. I could care less if i die but my sister deserves a better life. Shes a child, she shouldn’t have to look over her shoulder in her own home, she shouldn’t have to get yelled at and called stupid fucken kid just because she opened the apple juice and spilled a little on the table. Please, please, please i am begging for who ever will read this please pray for my little sister. Shes 10, she doesn’t deserve this. Please pray that the man goes away or that they both leave and I can take custody. Please pray! My mom told me she wants to see me dying on the street. This is who I live with and shes a great liar when authorities are around. Please pray, i can’t stand this anymore. I didn’t grow up going to church, but my sister and I werent born to live like this. There has to be good in this world, there has to be justice, there has to be sanctuary. There has to be someone out there who will listen and care. Please pray.

    • I’m so very sorry you and your sister are going thru this. Nobody should be treated like that. Please no that there are a lot of sick people in this world. I’m trying to deal with a bad situation for my granddaughter. You should call CPS and tell them what You and your sister have been going thru that you are willing to take care of your sister as her guardian. Talk to a pastor or counselor at a church, you don’t have to belong to the church. Ask them for help. It isn’t right to have to put up with these kind of people. Pray, if you can that God sends the right people in to your life to help you and your sister. Again, I feel very sad. I will pray for all of you too, May God wrap his loving arms around you and give you the strength you need right now. Amen

    • Oh Vane, you are going through so much. Your poor sister! I will be praying for you all every day… Maybe consider reaching out to your local parish or church. Maybe they can help you. Seek God Vane… cry out to him for your entire family. He will help you!

      Pour out your mighty Spirit O Lord… set the captives free… send your grace and mercy… change the hearts O Lord… protect them, heal them, send your peace O Lord… cast out the influence of the evil one in the name of Jesus Christ… bring your comfort O Lord… in the name of Jesus, Amen.

  3. I have sinned and done many wrong things. I have some test results from a doctor that they don’t seem worried about but I don’t trust them. I am going to have several tests in the course of the next 2 weeks and I’m paralyzed by fear. Please pray for me that all goes well and I get a clean bill of health. I don’t even feel a part of this world anymore I’m so depressed, scared and worried. I need prayer please pray for me.
    Thank you

    • I understand what you are saying. I have done things that I am ashamed of and regret and brought hurt and trouble. Right now god has put good things on hold which is so hard to cope with but I know god is wanting to work in me and for me. I feel I’m being broken everyday for god to pick me up and restore. He is teaching me to let go and trust him even tho it so hard at times. Remember god so loved the world that he gave his only son for us. Your name was on his mind when he was on the cross. His word is full of his promises for us and he is faithful to them
      I pray for strength I pray that God touches you and lets you know he has got this. I pray for you to have the faith to let go and let god. To know your not the only one going though things and your never alone with god. I pray that the bigger god will battle the situations for you.
      Read psalms 23-30 they are a great source of hope in hopeless times

    • Dear Michele… your are not alone. We are here for you, to pray for you. Just coming here is a good sign of a new beginning. Ask God to forgive you. He will never turn you away. Ask him for peace and strength. Now is the time to cry out to him. I know where you are coming from, I’ve been there. But the mercy and love of God can make all things new! Trust him. Seek him. The mercy of Christ has no limits.

      I will be praying for you Michele!

    • Michele, please know that we are all here for you. Praying for your test results to come back good. We are all going thru a lot of things right now, know that we will be praying for you. God bless you.

  4. I’ve been dealing with mental health issues for 3 years now. Maybe 4. It’s just been so long where I hardly have days where I am not weary or sometimes unmotivated for the day ahead Some days are not as bad as others while others are nearly impossible. Throughout it all, I think the only thing keeping me sane, and faithful, as well as hopeful is the word of the lord. I praise him, I cry to him and I pray to him. I am aware that suffering is for everyone, but it doesn’t last. I am still waiting for the rays of lord’s light to shine upon me. I have for so long, wanted to win this battle without anyone’s help, including the lord’s. I denied it. But I simply can’t live like this anymore. I’ve accepted that I need help, and that I simply can’t overcome my mental health battle alone. For the first time in a long time, I tried reaching out to my parents about my mental health issues, but they made it seem like I just wanted attention. They made my claim invalid. They did not want to listen. That was last year in May, and this past April, I found the courage to at least tell a teacher from my high-school about my situation. My teacher reached out to our school’s social worker, and I even cried at the email reply, I cried of relief. I was one step closer into getting the help I wanted so badly and waited so long for. The social worker kindly suggested that although she could not meet with my parents because of the pandemic, she could at least call them and talk to them. However, it’s hard breaking old habits, so as usual, I denied the help. I was afraid of repeating last year’s denial from my parents. I did not want for that to repeat, and I did not want to experience that awful feeling again of crying for help when there was no response. I didn’t think it could get any worse in quarantine, but it did. My parents and I turned up positive with covid in July. And although it’s been over a month of being negative now, the virus left some paranoia and anxiety in us three. We are still away from our family. I only see my grandma and siblings in face-time and I miss them dearly. They feel so far away, and yet it’s hard to recall they’re in the same house I am in. I saw the best of the worst so I saw this quarantine with my parents as a chance to get closer to them. So coincidental, thank the lord no one else got covid, but why just my parents and I? I see this as a sign. Yet, I now feel more detached and further away from my parents than I did before. There’s nothing worse than watching a movie with your own parents and not being able to enjoy it because all you can think of is…”if only you knew, if only you listened about what I have to say, about how I feel” I don’t know how much of this I can take. I am trying to hang in there but it doesn’t seem to get any easier as the days go by. I am planning to send an email to my school social worker sometime this week, now that I’m ready for her help. Now that online school has started. I’m just hoping that when my parents get the call, that they may have patience in trying to understand, and an ear to listen to what I have to say along with the social worker. I ask for prayers for what’s to happen, I really want to get better. I really want to get professional help. But really it’s okay if I can’t see a psychiatrist or a therapist. Really all I want at the moment is just for my parents to truly just listen, and understand.

    • Lord I pray for Brianna and her situation. I pray she will feel your presence and your love. “Come to me all who are weary and burdened and you shall find rest” . You are the lord of hope and joy. And while we all go through tribulations and trials you promise to restore. We read many stories in your word when you do this so know it t be true. I pray Brianna is given the strength to endure each day to grow a bit more each day and be able to reach the day when the burden is lifted. Give her the courage to share and the wisdom to accept help for wherever you send it. Let your angels protect her and her family through it all and that as a result relationships and bonds will be strengethed and good will come and she will be able to help others from her experiences. Amen

      Brianna I understand as I go through a very tough and testing time right now. The lord is calling me to be patient and to let go. To let him be not only Resolve situations but also to work in me to heal roots in life that have affected right back and caused so much of my sin and pain over the years. God will provide and you will get all the prayer and encouragement here. I’m glad you felt able to share and ask. Keep at it.

    • Lord please soften the hearts of Brianna’s parents so they fully hear her cry for help and understanding. May Brianna know that God the Father hears her cry and may she find strength in this knowledge.

    • Oh dear Brianna…. how hard it must be for you! I’m so sorry to hear you are going through all this. But I see hope in your story. The fact that you reached out for help initially is huge. Return to that path. Get help. I know it must hurt so much that your parents seem distant, but remember, they are struggling too. We all are these days. Maybe for now you can lean on friends and a counselor… and of course keep seeking God. He is our best source of comfort.

      I will be praying for you, your situation and your family every day. God’s grace and blessings to you!

    • Brianna; I am so sorry you have been going thru all of this alone. Stay strong. I am happy that you reached out to your school to get help. Please know that we are all praying for you. I know it is really hard to talk about how you’re feeling, but God loves you and wants you to get better. You’ve made the first step.
      Father, please wrap your arms around Brianna and keep her uplifted, help her to get the help she needs to feel better, show her that You are and have always been by her side during all of this. Amen

    • Brianna. I am praying for you.. Stay strong. So many of us hare facing so many challenges.. We need to take one day at a time.. Be strong God Loves You .

  6. I wanna pray for all of our well being right not. As I been going through silent sickness, health issues, & emotional issues. I thought, dang I wonder how many others are out her some where thinking that our suffering will last forever. God hears us. Each and everything one of us with the situations that we are facing everyday. He is up to something, working remotely, getting us better day by day. I haven’t had this energy lately, I been kind of down , so being that he gave me the strength to speak today. I’m grateful.

    • Thank you for your words of encouragement. There will be joy in the morning and our trials are temporary. God restores. We are an encouragement to each other and I pray for your situations and blessing too

    • Wow, I am blown away by the compassion extended by you and others on this site. The people are remarkable on this site who support each other….and because we gather together in the Lord’s name, the Lord is among us. In his name it is done.
      May your strength, continue to make great gains each day.
