I have been going through some of the worst moments of my life. I feel that times have been heavier and heavier. I haven’t been able to find a job in this market after months of applying. Please pray for me to keep going, for motivation, for clarity, direction and for positivity. Please pray that I can continue to grow. More deeply, I have been going through a situation where I was silently fired and chosen to not be promoted after being falsely accused, lied on and used. I have been given tasks that would not allow me to grow. I have been worked against privately in the workplaces that I recently dealt with. I have been just treated poorly, isolated and excluded. I don’t know what to do anymore.

Please pray for my daughter Kimberly as she begins this important chapter of her life in college. May God protect her physically, emotionally and spiritually and guide every step of her journey. May the Holy Spirit give her wisdom, discernment and strength in her decisions, studies, friendships and relationships. Surround her with kind, trustworthy people who will encourage her and protect her from harmful influences and situations. Please pray that God blesses her education with understanding, perseverance and confidence. When she feels stressed, lonely, uncertain or overwhelmed, may Jesus give her peace, hope and strength. I also ask for God's providence for her financial and educational needs. May he open doors for scholarships and assistance and provide what she needs for housing, food, books, school supplies and other necessary expenses. Please guide Kimberly's vocation and future career. May she use the gifts God has given her to bring compassion, healing and hope to children, youth, families and others. Above all, please pray that Kimberly remains close to Jesus throughout her life and learns to trust him in every circumstance. May the Blessed Virgin Mary watch over her with maternal love and always lead her to her son. I entrust Kimberly's present, future and all the intentions I carry silently in my heart to God's loving mercy and providence. Amen.

I am going through some big changes in my life. Please pray that everything will go well during this transition, that I will find a good job quickly, and that I will find a safe and affordable apartment.Please also pray that I will find a way to bring my parrot with me to the new country I am moving to. I pray that God will open the right doors, guide my steps, remove any obstacles and provide everything I need for this new beginning. Without Jesus Christ and his help, I am doomed

They are currently facing eviction from their apartment and have less than a week to find somewhere else to go, with no place to stay at this time. Please pray that God opens the right door and provides them with a safe, beautiful, and comfortable home where they can have peace and stability with their baby. Please pray for favor, financial breakthrough, protection and divine intervention for them
