Hello friends, please send prayers my way. I am experiencing grief and overwhelm and anxiousness on levels I cannot even explain. It has been an incredibly challenging time and I am experiencing new levels of pain this week that is surprising in its intensity. Thank you so much for your prayers for me and my family. Thank you very much. God bless you all.❤️🙏✨

God bless you, dear Malika, during this season of grief and struggle. You are always in my prayers, but I'm ramping that up now. I pray that you have a strong social support system around you. 🙏

As we learn in Psalm 34: "The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit."

He sees you and hears you, now and forever. ❤️🙏✨

Thank you so much! All the prayers TRULY lifted me up and rafted me through troubled waters yesterday (and last night). I feel better today: I can think clearly, my breath is settled and I got some actual sleep. I feel covered in prayer and much more capable to face the day ahead. Thank you all so much for lifting me and my family up in prayer. God bless you all!!!! (*posting this under each supportive msg from yesterday, so please forgive the multiple thank yous:)!!!

Praying for my penfriend, who has a very rough time. She is very sensitive to sound and has frequent headaches.

Praying for Malika, hoping for resolve to the anxiety.

Saying a little prayer of thanks for the day of yesterday, that started with paperwork not being finished properly, streets blocked off, traffic lights not working, dangerous drivers, AC broken down when I got home... and at 4 in the afternoon, after getting home safely, someone helping me finish the paperwork, called the new AC company who showed up mid-afternoon and fixed the thing!

A small miracle - for less than the old company would have charged, and would have had to wait for days for them to come! A little prayer of thanks to my handyman, who recommended them.

Thank you, Ingrid, for sharing your experiences in which God made your crooked places straight! And, of course, prayers for your penfriend are going up. 🙏

I've offered up all your intentions and will remember you at Mass tonight.

I ask again for prayers for the W family. I ask prayers for the perpetrators of violence, and of course for their victims and families.

I ask prayers for Mary. For my eldest daughter as she actively plans her wedding. And for my youngest son.

His appointments last week went well and may lead to some very good things for him.

Thank you all

Thank you, Jaye, for your prayers, your praise reports, and your prayer request. I'm sure everyone here will join me in raising them all up. 🙏
