Prayer Circles

i'm having a hard time tonight you guys,i'm trying to get my hours changed at the hospital,so i can start bartending again. i can't make it on what the hospital pays me. and yes it is very taboo i know.i have spoke at meetings and with my sponcer i have also spoke to god. it's easy to stay clean in a cacoon.and i now have to cut free and i'm scared. but i know i can do anything i put my mind to,and i think that i'm having some self pitty or maybe just a bad night,but i do love you and es i'm staying clean through this,plus i really miss Jim latley. i wish he was here so i could ask him i don't know i guess i'm just lonely.

happy Birthday Angel,

BA - I'm sorry to hear about the episode at school and I hope that things get better with your home life. Kris, I hope your health is improving and Draganess, I'm sorry that you have the blues - I do too - I will pray for all of you - Brett and I are fighting like cats and dogs over the money situation - he is so hateful to me. It really bothers me. I know we will never be together again but I was hoping we could be friends but that doesn't look like the case - I have a good friend who is staying with me tonight becasue she decided to go into rehab. I told her I would quit drinking too to help her. Maybe this will help my life to start turning back around - I hope so.

Love Q

Good early morning,
It's 3am and 1 day without a drink and I can't sleep( which I just looked up) is WITHDRAWL..I'm really giving it 100% this time for my health and career, It just isnt worth it to drink anymore. It has caused me nothing but problems. A friend at school last night asked me to go have a drink( I usually do) but I had no desire and told her I had to get home.THANK YOU JESUS ON MY WAY TO RECOVERY....I no the road will be hard but I HAVE TO STOP..One is too many and 2 is not enough.I have to try and get some sleep, I will be back later today,
God bless you all and may your prayers be answered...
Love yah,
Bettyann
PS..you guys were right, ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE THROUGH GOD..

haven't posted on here for a while but its time i speak up and say a few things, REV. 1:7 SAYS, Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him; and all kindreds of the earth shalll wail because of him. Even so. Amen Jude 1:21 says Keep yourselves in the love of GOD, looking for the mercy of our LORD JESUS CHRIST unto eternal life. What i have to say is i love GOD with all my heart. He has changed me is lots of ways at one time i don't believe i even liked myself. Do we have to be honest with ourselfs here? Yes, Do we want CHRIST to be all? YES He was all from the beginning and wil be till the ending. REV. 1:8 We are to put on our helment os salvation, our breast plate of righteouness and our sheild every morning everyday not just one time. {Everyday} We are to do our part! If we are losing it is our fault not God"s. He gives us a free will. That says we have a responsibility as a christian. Have we done ALL we can do today? SHARON Dear JESUS i pray that your Love be with each and every person that takes the time to seek you today, and that you spirit reveal your love to them. If our lives aren't right give us the strength to put the garbage in the trash and leave it there, please have mercy on all of us oh God for your mercy endurth forever. If we do wrong Lord and something that is not pleasing in yuor sight Lord convict us and in all things you would have us do give us PEACE. Thank you in the NAME OF JESUS, AMEN

Dear Heavenly Father,
I praise you for ALL things this morning. You truly are a merciful God. I lift up my husband to you, JW. He is struggling with an addiction to marijuana. He wants to completely stop. Satan, in the name of Jesus, I rebuke you from him and from our household. I ask you Lord for a hedge of love, protection, and understanding around JW and my household. Things will be rough, but Lord, with you ALL things are possible. Thank you in the name of JESUS, Amen.

tHANK YOU JESUS,
Day 2 and Im still SOBER and have no desire to drink. I'm very wired even though I got 1 hr sleep..I guess that is my body's withdrawl not sleeping and restless for 1-5 days, but thats ok, I can handle it..I feel much better already and have lost 4 pds from NOT drinking..Thank youmy merciful GOD that makes all things possible; I pray for all calling on your name you here them, comfort them and lead them in the right direction. I pray for all trying to overcome addictions that you help them STOP and loose desire and see that there is more to life, I praise your Holy name Dear LOrd for finding me a site to do my Externship, a Doctor called me to come and get my traing there!!!!!!! He does do miracles when we put him first, May I continue to focus on Jesus and take my mind off of the stress and drinking, I hope Kris, Quigley, Renee, CJ, Cindy, ANgel and Sharon and all the new ones are blessed!!!

In Jesus name I pray,
Bettyann

BA,

Congrats! Sounds like things are looking up for you, I pray that you stay on the road to recovery.

I have decided to sue Brett in court for my truck back. I'm a little torn about that but otherwise I lose out on $8,000.00. I called the police on him last night because he was calling at 1:00 and 3:00 in the morning calling me a fu---- whore and stuff like that. The attorney I talked to gave me free advice and all the forms and so I'm going to do it. Pray that this all works out - Love you all Q

Dear Lord,

I pray that I make the right choices on what to do with this situation with Brett. Please help me to do the right thing regarding all of our safety. I pray that you watch over jaci and I and help us to stick to our non drinking policy - help me to be there for her and support her. Amen

IT IS ASTORY OD GREATNESS , OF A LOVE THAT PICKED ME UP WHEN I WAS AT MY LOWEST, AND HELD ME UP, AND TOLD ME MY LIFE WAS WORTH SAVING.

YOU TOO QUIGLEY. AS CINDY SAID, WE LOVE YALL, AND WE WANT TO SEE YALL MAKE THE RIGHT CHOICES,A ND DO WHAT IS RIGHT , AND YOU KNOW IS RIGHT IN YOUR HEARTS. LOVE YALL ALWAYS, KRIS

TO ALL OF YOU HERE. MAY GOD FOREVER BLESS AND KEEP YOU NEAR TO HIM. AND MAY YOU KNOW THAT HE IS EVER WATCHFUL, AND HIS EYE IS EVER ON THE SPARROW. AND IF ONE SHOULD FALL, HE IS THERE TO PICK IT UP. AND KNOW THAT HIS LOVE, AND HIS GIFT OF SALVATION IS FREE, IT DOES'NT COST ANYTHING. ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS REACH OUT .CALL UPON HIS NAME, AND IF YOU HAVE'NT ALREADY ASK HIM TO COME INTO YOUR HEART. ASK HIM TO WIPE AWAY ALL THIS , THAT HAS TAKEN HOLD OVER YOUR LIFE AND ERASE IT, AND BRING PEACE THERE. FOR WITH HIM, WE CAN CONQUER, AND OVERCOME ANY OBSTACLE, ANY STORM, ANY THING THAT WE MAY FACE IN LIFE. AMEN AMEN. HAPPY EASTER TO YOU ALL.

QUIGLEY; i wish you good luck in court; and i wish you success in finding the right job , that you will give you the kind of stabilty you need for you and taylor. i also am proud that you are making steps to help your friend that is staying with you to quit drinking too. i am very proud of you and ba . stay with it, and you can DO it. you are loved, you matter, and you are somebody. my amonia levels are not going down, they are remaining high now, but that is ok, i am not going to give in , give up, or let it slow me down, for i know thaat GOD IS NOT THRU WITH ME YET.

Kris,

Thanks for your words of encouragement. I pray that your amonia levels start going down and God Bless you for being such a great friend.

BA - I pray your willpower stays strong against alcohol - never give up -
Jessica, I pray that you are staying strong and that things start getting easier for you - let us know how you are doing

I am going to court to file a restraining order right now. I thank God for the abundance of friends I have on this site and here in Medford. Lord, keep us all safe and I pray that Jaci and I stay strong in our decisions. Keep me on the right track and I pray that I make the right decisions regarding my career. Keep us all strong when the road gets bumpy. I pray that Dawnielle can get her life on the right track and stop hanging around people who are not good for her. God bless her children and give me the strength to be a good friend and mother

Thanks for all the prayers. I hope all have a great Easter( I work).I did good till tonight, my b'f and our friends went out for dinner and I had 3 beers.. Im done though, going to bed work tomorrow, I pray Jesus you keep me staying strong, either walking away totally, or learning how to have a few and walk away..what ever you think is best..I have felt great in this last 3 days not drinking till tonight, not drunk but very tired and have to get up at 6am for work, May you all be blessed and remember Jesus on Easter and I love you all and only want the best for you all, May God hear each and all your prayers and answer them, I pray for Kris Amonnia to go down and Qigley to be safe and get away from Brett and be safe and the judge will decide on your money( your safety and child are most important right now).......
Love Bettyann

Dear Lord my Heavenly Father I ask that You touch my husband's heart that he may go forward instead of backwards. Mack has slipped back into all the drugs/alcohol again. Lord I ask is that some people don't want to get cured from these addictions? My Lord deliver Mack from all that is evil and let him come to You to save him from his sins.

I thank You for being here with me again with these hard times. I extend the 23rd Psalm to him and pray that it helps him. Thank You Lord!!!!

Kris,

Thank you for the prayer - I am going in front of the judge tomorrow - I'm not worried about getting the restraining order I just get nervous in front of the judge. And I'm more nervous about when Brett finally gets served. I pray he doesn't finally go off the deep end. How did your court date go? I'm sorry if you already said but I can't remember - I feel so self involved lately. I pray that my words tomorrow come out the way they are supposed to and I feel like such a bad mom lately. I have no patience and I'm so short with Taylor. I can see the effects of everything on her - especially the last couple of weeks. I saw Tyler (Brett's son) today at church with his mom - Brett told him he couldn't see him because he was going thru too much trauma with me and he just couldn't be a good dad right now. I'll be so glad when this is done. Love you all

Dear Lord,

I pray that you be there with me tomorrow. help me to say my words right and to be brave. I pray that I can start focusing on being a good mother and that I find a good job that I like - keep me sane Lord - God bless my mom for what she did today and what she does everyday - Watch over Jaci and Dawnielle and Paul - Keep Taylor and I safe and thank you for the great time Dawnielle's kids had at my parents today. I pray that you help Taylor with her weight problem and help me to learn to put my daughter's life before my friends. I pray for the willpower to be sober and to stay away from any kind of drug. Help me learn to ccope with life sober. Last but not least, I pray that you can help Brett to realize that he is ill and that he truly does need help and watch over his son and protect him from any evil. Amen.

Hope all are well,
GOD GRANT ME THE SERENITY TO ACCEPT THE THINGS I CANNOT CHANGE, COURAGE TO CHANGE THE THINGS I CAN AND THE WISDOM TO NO THE DIFFERENCE.
Sorry I have slidden Dear Lord, I pray I get back on track and out of this Depression at home, In Jesus name keep me strong,
AMEN
Bettyann

JUST WANTED TO STOP BY ON THIS SITE TODAY TO SAY HI TO EVERYONE AND TO SAY PEACE BE WITH YOU ALL! I THOUGHT OF ALL OF YOU A FEW DAYS AGO SOMETHING HAPPENED I REALLY MADE ME THINK OF ALL OF YOU SO STSSRONGLY THAT I DECIDED TO SHARE WITH YOU.

AS BEFORE THAT THE NIGHT BEFORE I WAS TEMPTED SO BAD BUT NEVER GAVE IN. THE TRIAL WAS TOUGH BUT I STOOD STRONG ON FAITH JUST KNOWING WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS, NOT FEELING HIS PRESENCE I STILL STOOD FIRM! AND TO HEAR THAT THE FOLLOWING MORNING AND TO BE ABLE TO TELL SOMEONE ELSE WHAT A BLESSING , BUT THAT IS NOT ALL , IMMEDIATELY AFTER I SAID THAT OUT LOUD MY FRIED SAID OH I JUSST SAW AN ANGEL OVER ME I KNOW THAT IS WHAT IT WAS. AND SHE CRYED ALMOST ALL DAY ON EASTER. (I HAVE TO ADD THAT SHE HAD BEEN PRAYING TO SEE AN ANGEL AND IT HAPPEN ON EASTER, I DON'T THINK WE THINK WE THINK ENOUGH ABOUT HOW BLESSED WE REALLY ARE. YOU GIRLS NEED TO TURN MORE OF YOUR BLESSINGS OVER TO GOD. IF WE ARE DRINKING AND ETC. OUR EYES ARE NOT ON JESUS! ITS OUR CHOICE IF GOD BE FOR US WHO CAN BE AGAINST US! BYE LOVE, SHARON

TO ALL;Yes GOD is all we need, he's maginificient , he's awesome , he's fantastic, just hold HIS HAND! HE is worth loving! He loves you! THE things of this world will pass away! PLEASE give these things so very serious thought, it is time to get serious. We can't drink when things don't go our way it didn't work for me and it in not going to work for any body else. I am lucky i am alive. That alone is worth praising GOD for. PRAYING IS GREAT BUT FAITH WITHOUT WORKS IS DEAD. IT IS TIME TO TAKE A C T I O N! JESUS IS COMING BACK FOR A SPOTLESS BRIDE, GOD is cleaning his people up there is a great move of the spirit going on! We have to wise up! We say we love GOD our lives have to show it. I am not saying this to step on anyone's toes here but what are we going to do in our lives. Are we going to let JESUS control our lives or are we going to live a clean spotless life before him. HE LOVES ALL OF US. SHARON DEAR JESUS KEEP EVERY ONE OF US IN YOUR WATCHFUL CARE GIVE US THE PEACE AND STRENGTH JESUS FORGIVE US OF OUR SINS IN JESUS NAME. AMEN

Hello all,

Sharon, I will be praying for Kris, I hate the fact that she is not feeling well, tell her I am thinking of her. BA, hope you are being strong, I pray that you can find the willpower to overcome the urge to drink - I haven't been doing very well. Jaci went out of town for a week before she starts treatment and things have gotten a little crazy. I filed the restraining order against Brett Monday and he filed one on me today! He made up all kinds of lies about me - it was unreal - it actually made me and everyone else (I had a few freinds here) laugh becuase it was so ridiculous. But the judge signed it. So... now I can't leave the state and it's all on record. He said I was a drug addict and an alcoholic - which I did not say about him. The funny thing was that I had a friend go into file a restraining order today and him and Brett sat together and Brett didn't realize who he was so I knew before the fact that I was going to be served with one. And the Sheriff showed up 30 min later. I think someone has found my truck - I'm not sure how legal all of it is to get it back but it's mine and I'm going to do it. I pray that I don't get in any trouble or put in jail. I feel like I have been surrounded by people from a different type of life lately. I want out of this life but I'm stuck for the moment until I get my truck back and they have all been very nice to me but it gets kind of scary. You don't cross any of them, I know that much - I'm trying to be careful but it's still wierd.

Better go Love Q

Dear Lord,

I pray that I am taking the right direction on getting my money back - if I am not please steer me in the right direciton - I pray that Taylor & I and all my friends who are helping me are kept safe. Please watch over those who have tried so hard to help me - I still pray for Brett that he someday soon realizes that he has a problem. Keep me strong and confident and I pray that my job next week pans out and that I can make enough money to pay all these bills and things. Help me to find a better life without violence and the other things I have been dealing with. Please let the truth prevail. I have learned my lesson and only want to pick up the pieces and go on. Help me to find myself and what makes me complete so that I don't crave drinking. Keep me honest and loyal. I pray for BA to regain her willpower against alcohol and I pray that Kris is feeling better - watch over us all Lord, and God Bless Sharon for caring so much about Kris - I pray we all find a good friend in our lives like that at one time or another amen

QUIGLEY-I am so sorry you are so troubled right now, these things are so nasty some times and can really wear down your nerves, I REALLY THINK THIS MAN NEEDS TO HAVE A NEW HEART CREATED IN HIM. You know what i feel you should do is ask GOD TO OPEN THE DOORS HE WANTS OPENED HERE AND CLOSE THE DOORS HE WANTS CLOSED. (IT is GOD's will being done here not ours) i love PSALM 51 it helps a person to walk a better walk. It brings a person straight to GOD THROUGH HIS GRACE. And tells much of how the heart of GOD really is. You can pray the word of GOD for another person. [Thought you would be interested to know i have been in Medford several times.] I have a half-brother who llives in GRANTS PASS. Dear JESUS restore Quigley to peace only peace that you can give not as sthe world knows but as is from you. LORD let your presence be with her and hold her hand. Please see her through these days and turn them around so she enjoys her life once more, and send someone in her life that will love her for who she is and someone who will keep her happy, and someone she can respect and love so she feels she has a reason to live the full life she is suppose to be live. Someone LORD that will help mature in her spirtual life as well as it being someone she cares about more than she has ever cared about in her whole life. IN JESUS NAME AMEN-----SHARON

PRAYER is somethingthat has always been a part of me. I prayed when I needed to hear my Fathers heart, when I was baptized by John,when I chose the twelve, when I did mighty works, when I broke bread, and when I blessed the children.I prayed when facing my darkest hour, and I prayed as I gave my life upon the cross.
I prayed in public before others, and I prayed alone. I prayed in the daytime, and I prayed at night.
When I prayed with my decilple just before I was arrested in the garden, YOU were included in that prayer. When I taught my disciples how to pray, it was for YOUR understanding as well. I know that I am not physically present with you today as I was with my disciples so many years ago, but my heart of prayer has not changed. I am praying for you now, because YOU are MINE. My love for you today is great, and my heart for you is full. I pray peace over you and blessings upon you. I pray rivers of joy to be within you and to flow out through you.
I pray good things over you. I pray that your life will bear much good fruit, that you grow in grace, that your faith will increase, and that you will stand strong until the day I see you face to face.
Jesus
How rich you are that JESUS is praying for you!!!
As I PRAY for you, I cannot express the JOY that is mine knowing that JESUS loves you even MORE than I do!!!
Love & Gods best to all who are here!
Love in Christ Jesus,
Angel

Hello Everyone, It has been a while since I have posted, but I have been reading your post’ (I don’t always have time to post) but I have been praying for you all. I am sorry to hear that Kris is not feeling well. I hope that God can ease her pain and give her comfort. Q - Sorry to hear about all of the turmoil in your life now. Please be careful when trying to get your property back. It sounds that Brett is very unstable now and I don’t want to hear of you getting hurt. It saddens me that he has gone down the road of untruths to make himself look better. I will be praying that your job works out for you. How is Taylor doing through all of this? BA – I pray that you can get back on track and be able to fight the desire for the drinking. You did so well; I know you can do it again and for a long time. Just give it all up to God and he will answer your prayers if you are sincere in your request. Angel – what an awesome post. Thank you so much. I hope all is going well with you and your family. Things are good in my part of the world. God has been answering prayers and giving me peace. Brian is doing great. He is totally a different person. He is more at ease than I have ever seen him. He is taking a week off before the busy season hits at his job. He will be traveling to see a very close friend that is dieing from a heart disease. Please pray for safe travel for Brian and comfort and peace for Scott. Thanks to everyone who has said prayers for my family. I am so glad that God had sent me to this site. It has been a blessing. Hang in there everyone and God bless!!

Dear Lord, I come to you now and ask for you to watch over Brian while he is traveling. Please be with him and continue to give him strength and faith. Please be with Scott and wrap your arms around him. Please but a hedge of protection around he and Cyndi as they travel to the airport to pick up Brian. Lord, you know all the wants and needs of all my pray partners on this site, please Dear Father, I ask you now to bless everyone and answer their prayers, if it is your will God. Help Q to have the strength to handle all the stress in her life now and be with Taylor and let her know she is loved. Give Kris the comfort and the peace she desires. Please take away the desire from BA to drink and help her to find happiness in her life dear Lord. I lay all of this at your feet, Father. In your name, I pray, AMEN
