- Two separate families in my city have each lost a daughter (one was 21, the other 25) in separate car accidents. Please pray for these families during this rough time. The accident in which the 25 year old was killed also had the driver of that vehicle rushed to hospital, but he has non life threatening injuries.

- Please pray for me, that I will grow more in my relationship and walk with Jesus. Pray that I will be more obedient, and that I will spend more time with Him than I have been lately.
I hope all mentioned here do not mind that I have posted prayer requests for them. Of course there are many more who need our prayers, these are just a few that I have come across. We are told in the Bible to share one anothers burdens, and a great way to share in this is to pray. By putting our focus on our brothers and sisters, as well as others who need prayer, we take the focus off us and our problems and that helps illiminate selfishness and selfcenteredness (because the focus is not on us). May God greatly bless you for sharing in the burdens of others.

We will be praying with you.
Thanks for the requests.
I will pray for you. You are such a sweet and caring person! I can feel how much you love God and how much He loves you. Bring your prayer requests up bold! Your requests are just as important as everyone elses. For years I never prayed for myself or asked for myself. I always felt that everyone elses needs were more important than mine. The first time I did pray for my own needs I came across this verse.."But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you."(Matt. 6:6) It was only then that I realized that my needs were important not only to me... but to God! And God and I had a great time together in prayer that day. I will pray that you will have some good quality time with Jesus every day. He is such a great friend to have!! I will also pray for the others... and thank you for who you are in Christ to remember to uplift others in prayer.
Shelley,
