For those with chronic diseases and illnesses
Chronic Diseases Prayer Circle


This circle is for all who suffer with chronic diseases and disorders and in need of prayer and support from others.

There are many who are afflicted with chronic diseases such as lupus, MS, fibromylagia, rheumatoid arthritis, chronic fatigue syndrome and others, or may have children or other family members and friends who suffer with these conditions. The prayer circle can be here for the many ups and downs that come with these illnesses, as well as the tests that most have to go through when having a flare or time of activity in their symptoms. This can be a place to come for prayers when support is needed and also to give thanks and praise to God for remissions and times that we feel well.

Hi Tilleygirl-

I also went through kidney failure and now also have a heart condition. I was very fortunate and blessed to have a transplant. My younger brother gave me his kidney to keep me alive. I would like to be of some help to you and your friend. You both have been put into my daily prayer book. The both of you need to be strong and positive and stick together. Your friend needs you more than she is probably letting on. I was the same way once I got sick. If you need information on the kidney's and the heart, I would be glad to help in any way I can. Please feel free to email me at pezziepaddlesNY@webtv.net. I have a web page on my email page and it's all about what I have been through with all my illnesses. Just keep the faith and keep on following the light that the Heavenly Father is shining down on you and your friend and take the right path.

Lord, please hear my pray for Tilleygirl and her friend who needs You to guide them to stay positive and strong. In the name of Jesus, I pray. Amen.

I have been diagnosed as having early on-set Alzheimers. I also have Crohn's disease, GERD, Migraines, Cluster headaches, mitral valve prolapse, osteoporosis, and now have been told that I have spinal stenosis and must use a walker to get about. I am so glad that I found your website. I am more-or-less housebound and rarely get to church. Please pray with me that I can remember that God only gives us burdens we can bear with His help. I am so afraid that as my Alzheimers progresses, I will be less able to share in the care of my household. I am in my second marriage and have 2 stepsons who are in their teens. My husband has glaucoma and is a border-line diebetic and he can't handle the boys amd me,too. God Bless Y'all. Peggyjoyce

I havejust finished reading all the prayers and prayer requests o this wonderful circle. I want to add my thanks to all those others to Dolphin for starting this Prayer Circle.

Karen35 and you other migraine sufferers, although I'm not in the medical profession myself, I have suffered from migraines for over 45 years and have many, many allergies. Right now, they are being controlled with daily doses of Doxepin and Topamax...the occurance rate is much lower than it was before. I can't take aspirin, or motrin, etc. but one Indocin Suppository (usually given for arthritis which I somehow CAN tolorate)will get a migraine down to a level that I can survive it. And inhaling oxygen will finish it off and knock out the cluster headache that a migraine often triggers. This was learned through much trial and error, Denver Headache Clinic,two pain management centers, a psychologist, psychiatrist; and neurologists. I still get headaches, just not as often nor as severe.

I would like to share a prayer that has meant a lot to me and comforted me a lot through the years;

Watch, O Lord, with those who wake, or watch, or weep tonight, and give Your Angels and Saints charge over those who sleep.
Tend Your sick ones, O Lord Christ.
Rest Your weary ones,
Bless Your dying ones,
Soothe Your suffering ones,
Pity Your afflicted ones,
Shield Your joyous ones,
And all for Your love's sake.
Amen.
St. Augustine

Please pray for my mother Geraldine she was diagnosed wwith Renal Cell Carcinoma and needs one kidney removed and we have to travel some distance to have the operation. This is the only family member who has been there for me throughout my troubled life. My mom has a business and is young at heart and is otherwise healthy. Pray for our family for coping skills for this. I pray for a cure for this illness for complete shrinkage of this tumor on her kidney or a successful surgery which ever the higher power will allow. I have heard of the tremendous power of prayer and that tumors can shrink and people can be cured of cancer even if for a little while God bless all of you who read this

Dear everyone,
I am asking for prayers for a very special cousin of mine. She suffered a massive heart attack on Wednesday and hasn't regained consciousness since then. I request prayers that God will work a miracle if it is His will and she be returned to her family. I ask also that you pray for her family, to give them strength to cope with what God has planned for them. Thank you, in Jesus name.

This morning I need to talk with you about my Momma, She is in terrible pain from gout in her right knee and foot, She is 81 and very indenpendant as they come. Thursday night she passed out and had to go to the hospital again. She has a pacemaker and she throught it had stopped. The doctors took x rays and did some other tests. Her pacemaker was alright, but we don't know what caused her to pass out like that. I know my Momma is a devote Christian and has been for a long time. I pray that when the times comes for my Momma to go Home to Jesus that she goes in peach in her sleep without any more pain.

I has been 20 years since my brother was murdered and no one has paid for that here on earth but like Momma says they will pay later on when they come before the Judgement Seat. Last month on May 20 my older sister died, she was 63 and in 1957 my sister Lynda Faye died in May. I found out Friday that my daughter Faye Lynne may be low blood sugar.

Is it bad on my part to pray that my Momma have a peaceful time when it is her time to go? I don't mean it to sound like I want her to die because that is the last thing I want. I would love to go see her but is is out of the picture for now. I am going through some real bad times right now.

The Only One
There is only one who knows
What tomorrow may hold.
Put your trust in Him for I am told
You will be held within His fold.

Blessed be His holy woud!
What? Haven't you heard?
God gave His only Son and His life.
That whosoever would believe,
Has joy, peace and sweet relief.

He paid for all of our tomorrows
So whould you share all of His sorrows?
Would you share His dealth on Calverys' tree?
As He died to set us free, from sin and dealth eternally?

Then sinner come and trust His grace
And for you He will prepare a place,
Where all may live with Him forever
To praise Him, and to leaver Him never.

Thank you for reading this. It has helped me to write about my feelings. I know mentally that all life ends at their appointed time but we always want our loved ones to always be with us. Thank you Jesus for giving me such a wonderful Momma and if it be your will heal her and take away the pain hers and mine. Please pray for my husband, he lost his brother on Memorial Day.
God grant me The serenity to accept the tings I cannot change.The courage to change the things I can and the wisdom to know the difference. Amen

This is a wonderful site. So many prayerful people. I have lung cancer as well as rhumetoid Arthritis. The Lord has shown His Grace and Compassion to me during the last three years. I thank God for His goodness and pray for all on this list, that they may find comfort and strength to fight their illness,or find a cure. I also pray that all who do not know Jesus, will find Him during their sufferings, as Jesus died for all of us, a very slow painful death. Faith can move mountains. Blessings and love to all of you.

This is for SpaceBaby01 and any other shut-ins who might be interested. Live broadcasts of St. Sabina's 1:15 Sunday Mass, as well as a selection of past homilies (sermons) by Fr. Pfleger can be heard at www.saintsabina.org. I live in Spring TX and the Lord was so good to my family and me. In this horrible flooding, none of my 7 children or 16 grandchildren suffered any great damage, only one had water in her home, and only 2 or 3 of our cars are totally lost. But in spite of having to work 23 hours straight and go up and down 18 flights of stairs in a dimly lit unventilated building, with no food and little water, he didn't have any ill effects with his blood sugar levels. God is really good. With all the flooding, we have had such a small loss of life and such a massive outpouring of help and love extended to all of us!

I was recently diagnosed with IBS or irratable bowel syndrome. In my research I have found so many testimonies of pain and suffering that people go through every day...me included. IBS can have a profound impact on one's life...all aspects. And yes, it can be very painful.

Dear Lord, I don't ask why me. I just ask for the strength to see me through this.

My Prayer For You All:

May God's love gently wash over your soul, and make calm your every fear. May God hold you in the palm of His hand, and always keep you so near. May you find great strength in God's love, for today's journey, and each following day. May your faith in the power of prayer remain, giving to you hope, as you find your way. May you find comfort in God's son Jesus, and the loving gift of Salvation He brings. May you always hear the word of the Lord, and your life enriched with many blessings. May Jesus forever command God's Angels, to watch over you in everything that you do. May Angels shelter you during life's storms, and shine a light to show the way through. May life always be gentle and kind to you, and filled with much happiness and love. May you continually feel the gifts and joys, that are given to you, from Heaven above.

In the name of Jesus, I pray. Amen.

I am so glad that I found this website! I was diagnosed with a blood clot in my jugular vein almost nine months after my initial hospitalization with intense headache and pain down deep in my left ear. The doctor ran the tests for arteries but failed to run the test for veins when I was in the hospital and now I have to live with excruciating headaches and swelling on the left side of my head and face. I am praying for a miracle - a full and complete recovery - and I will give God the glory...OR... that God will show me what I'm supposed to do with this illness to honor Him.

I believe in angels and truly believe that they help me tolerate this terrible pain!

A vascular surgeon told me that I should have died the day this happened. I told him the "God must not be finished with me yet." He stared at me and said, "I guess you're right."

Please pray for my healing. Thank you!

WAS PLACED ON YOUR BODY WHILE ON THE CROSS REPRESENTED HEALING FOR OUR BODIES.

Lord Jesus, thank you for the privilege of coming to You in prayer and for allowing us to petition prayer for our sisters and brothers in Christ. May they have the peace today that can ONLY come from You. May they feel Your presence with them this day.

Thank you for your angels who come to us and minister to us here on this Earth. Please let Your angels be with each person in this prayer chain and let them feel the closeness of your angels. I pray that my angel will remain with me this day and everyday. I feel comfort from knowing that I have an angel standing beside me to help me through the pain of my illness. Help others, too, to believe that angels are with them and ministering to them. Let them feel their angel's presence and comfort.

Father, I thank you for the persons praying for me today. I also ask for a full and complete healing, Father. Or, Father, show me how to use this illness to honor you.

I ask Lord, that you will hear the prayers of your children, Tine and m1999us. I ask that Wanda and Florence feel Your Hands upon them this day! Oh, Lord, I pray for Tine's Dad with cancer in his back. I pray that you will relieve his pain as only You can! I hope he also feels Your Presence with him today. Hold him close to you, Father, and let him feel your loving arms around him. If it is Your will, I pray for his recovery. If it is not Your will, I pray that you will relieve his suffering and give him Peace.

Father, I also pray for m1999us and her chronic UTI's. I know, Lord, how painful that can be! Father, if it is Your will, I pray for her complete recovery and that You will remove the scar tissue and return her to her former health. I pray that she will be pain free and that this condition will not return to her...and we will give You the Glory!

I pray this prayer for each and every person who has written in this prayer chain. As I go back to the top and read each name, I ask that their petitions for healing be granted, if it is Thy will. Please, Lord, bless each person on this list and let them feel Your Loving Arms around them, and give them Peace.

In Jesus most precious name, AMEN.
