In reply to Could you pray for me?, posted by Spriggy on May 2, 2005, at 16:39:41
Dearest Spriggy,
I just myself posted another prayer request and then when I looked through recent posts I saw yours from last month.
The prayer you wrote me for my first request a couple of months ago was so incredibly moving and from the heart that I have read it many many time. A few lines in particular I even just repeat to myself over and over.
I see that your request is several weeks old and I hope so badly that things have eased for you even just a bit. I do not know you as well as others on this board do and do not know too many of the details of all you have endured. But I do know something of your wonderful spirit.
I want you to know that however your situation has changed since the post I am responding to, I am praying deeply for you right now. I ask God to engulf you with his love right now and lift you from these burdens that seem almost too much to bear. Please, God, hear this woman's pleas. I know that she loves you with all her heart and that it is a genuine love that triumphs even when she feels forsaken. She is someone who is able to truly feel your presence and I ask you to let her know again that you are right there right now. Please lead her through these struggles. Please hold her and comfort her.
Squiggy, I really don't know you at all. But please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers. I have thought of you so often repeating in my mind those few lines I refered to earlier that you wrote for me. They were about not knowing why God makes us walk through the wilderness the way he does. But then you said, "But believe me when I tell you, he will not leave you there. He will get you safely to the other side."
I am going to bed now and will definitely pray for your relief.
Spector
