Wall Of Prayer

#301

To keep this post anonymous, I didn’t use names.

I can only pray for you back, T. I know that you and me had our differences but I miss you. I miss the way you used to talk to me when no one else would. I miss the way you used to trust me. I miss the way I used to trust you. I miss your smile. I miss your voice. I miss staying up all night and talking to you. As you got older, I stayed the same but you began to change. As much as I told you that it wasn’t for the better, you didn’t listen. Look where it got us, T.
You and me: disconnected.
All you care about is him, T. Him. You used to be my best friend. I knew you longer than him. I was your best friend. How could you choose him over me? How can you say that you hate me? How can you say that you wish to never speak to me ever again? What did I ever do to you but love you, huh? What? You still pick him over me.
Well, I’ve lasted nine months without you. It seems like yesterday. When I thought I couldn’t go a day without you. I’ve went nine months. I need you, T. I love you. Come back. Please come back.

Grandpa, I miss you and I pray that you’re finally happy up there in heaven. We all miss the war stories you used to tell and the funny pranks you used to pull on my dad when he was a kid.

Dad, I pray that you and mom will be okay. I know that it looks like the end for you two, but me and my brother need to to stay strong.

Mom, I pray that you come to your senses and apologize once and for all to dad. I thought you said you would change. You didn’t change. Please, mom. Be a mother again.

Troops, I pray that you stay alive and make it home for Christmas and other holidays for your families who miss you very much.

Haiti, I pray that all of the families that are missing someone can pull through and I pray that the members of those families who are still alive but missing will soon find their way back home. A house doesn’t make a home. A family does.

I pray that the world could change. I pray that people can live in harmony.

I pray that you’re all okay.

I hope that one day, everyone can be happy.

(Wow it’s been months since I checked here). To be honest, I forgot. I haven’t heard of it before- it began with an E…
Well anyway, months and months ago, it turned out that the video just flopped. It failed. Well, one of them did. One was ok. But seriously, we were too behind to believe. But then it also turned out it wasn’t the video’s outcome only that determined my grade in the class. Thanks to some extra credit work, articles, and an evaluation, I got between an A and a B in that class. I had thought that the video would fail me, but it didn’t. And, though the class wasn’t enjoyable anymore and my projects weren’t good, it did come in handy. I learned some techniques in video production I never thought of before, and ot access to a site that can teach me tips and tricks for future use. So, actually it worked out ok. Didn’t go completely the way I wanted, but as Rhino from Bolt says, guess I gotta roll with the punches. :slight_smile:

And Al-Bob, I’ll be sure to pray for you. That’s gotta be a little scary. I hope you’re in good health.

IncredigirlVirginia: I’ll pray for your dad and your friend, too. I don’t know what it’s like to have someone in the family who drinks, but I do know what it’s like to have someone in the family who does something harmful and seems distant from the rest of the family. I hope your dad can turn his life around. May God watch over him. And your friend. Her dad and stepmom didn’t want her?! That’s sad and cruel of them…but at least it’s a good thing she’s got a friend like you to be with as family. I’ll pray that she’s fine, both health-wise and emotionally.

x3haijessiex3- Sounds like life is really tough for you right now. I know what it’s like to have a friend who begins to drift away. I’ll pray that you guys can get the chance to be the good friends you once were. I hope God sees and knows how hurtful friendships breaking apart and also families’ hardships can be, and that he helps give a chance for both to be healed.

Could you guys please pray for this one girl (who I will nickname “Lily” just for protecting privacy reasons and to make easier to pray for, you know, with names)? She’s new, just moved here, I believe, and she cries often. Not always because she is sensitive or has a rough past or feels shy, but also because she has some sort of problem with her eyes that makes her build up tears so much and she can sometimes cry kind of against her will, which makes it hard for her to start life new here with that kind of reputation, I think. But it’s not only that. She seems to feel unloved at times, too. I try to be her friend who can listen to her and help her feel better, but it’s harder than I thought. All I can do is listen, but I can’t comfort her much because I don’t know what she’s going through. Also, she’s facing depression for some reason and I can’t always be there for her to lean on. It’s hard if I don’t know what she’s talking about and it seems wrong to ask her…
I hope that “Lily”'s life will have happy moments to come so she wouldn’t feel so depressed, that she’ll make new friends who can maybe be there for her better than I can and make her feel appreciated, and that God helps her see the light.

Hey, and by the way, here’s a YouTube video, if you’ve got the time, that’s inspiring and touching (no, I didn’t make it). I love it cause it’s comforting and universal. I don’t know if it’s right to advertise a video with Disney and other clips in a thread of prayer requests, because it seems like I’m going off-topic, but trust me, it made me feel better. It’s like those inspirational stories, though not exactly a story…youtube.com/watch?v=fonHWiFN … re=related

Thanks, bright dot-dasher. My dad came to VBS yesterday, so I feel a lingering hope that maybe, he’ll come to church one day :slight_smile:

Thanks BDD, a lot.

I’ll pray for “Lily”. Hopefully she’s okay and she feels better. You seem like a great friend to her and hopefully she sees that.

You’re welcome, you guys. :slight_smile:
Hope things are getting better.

I haven’t heard from “Lily” in a while, so I don’t know if things are better or worse in her life, but if you could, please keep her in your prayers still. Thanks.

Also, could you please pray for my family? Yesterday I was getting feelings that maybe my existance was a mistake, since my parents are so unhappy together and weren’t meant to be. I know I’m not alone and there are many others with an issue maybe even worse than mine, but it still hurts. I know every couple fights now and then, so this may sound cliche or something, but really, you haven’t heard how bad the fight was last night. I wish they could reach an understanding, but one has too much pride to listen to the other, and the other has so much stress that the screaming at each other started They slept in different rooms last night. Not the first time.
Anyway, I’m not asking for a divorce, since that would only build up the stress for each of them to stand on their own, but I’m hoping for an end to this, that they could somehow understand each other better. The arguments don’t lead to understandings later, cause they end up yelling over each other and so nothing’s solved. Anyway, it was so bad I can’t describe too much of it.
Sorry that was long…well anyway, you get the picture.

I’m sorry to hear that, bright dot-dasher. I’ll be sure to pray for you.
