Hi Dear Brothers and Sisters,

I am having a really difficult time right now. I have lost motivation and I have been very emotional. If you have some time, could you please pray for me.

I just feel like I can't push through anymore. I feel like giving up.


Many Blessings,
monkeys

Feel free to send me a pm if you need to chat sister. I'm here 24/7 (almost listerally lol)

GOD is with you always. Trials are blessings, but we need to learn so by experience which mature us.

Your in my prayers
 
hello dearest monkeys you are such a blessing and encouragement on here. Remember that Jesus did not promise us a bed of roses. He told us that when we go through difficult times He goes through them with us.

There is a poem that I have on a card and it tells us not to give up. It is called 'Don't quit' and I have posted it in the poems forum for you to read and can be found here: http://www.talkjesus.com/poetry/12232-dont-quit.html

It will encourage you as we need to keep pushing through. Keep on keeping on. Pressing in and pressing on.

Phi.3.
Pressing on Toward the Goal
12 Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already been made perfect, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. 13 Brothers, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, 14 I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.

Jam.1
Trials and Temptations

2 Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, 3 because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. 4 Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. 5 If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him. 6 But when he asks, he must believe and not doubt, because he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. 7 That man should not think he will receive anything from the Lord; 8 he is a double-minded man, unstable in all he does.

Father I lift up sister monkeys to You and ask that you touch her in a special way today. Show her how much You love and care for her. She does love you so much too. Help her to keep her eyes on You and not on her circumstances. Your Word is our handbook to help us live our life. Lead her to the place You would have her to read today. Thank you that Your grace and mercies are new every day. Thank you for the Joy of the Lord is our strength. So often when we think about giving up we are near our breakthrough and can miss out on getting it. Help monkeys to get her motivation back again. You came to give us abundant life and I pray that our dear sister will be able to enjoy this life too. Help her to keep close to You as You stick closer than a brother to us. Let Your Word which is living and active, be alive to our sister as she reads it and grows in You. You say when we pray according to Your will and in Your name You will hear our prayers and answer us so I am asking this knowing that Your timing is perfect too. In Jesus' name amen

Hello dear friend - this is when you can rely on Christ's mercy.Jesus fell on the road to Calvary He despaired but trusted in God to deliver Him. I am praying that you will have total confidence in God's promise to help you always.Nothing that will happen to you today has not been foreseen by the Father and He will be your assured refuge in times of trouble.I will be in my church later today and I will pray for you.
 
Thank you all so much for you encourage words, prayers, and support.

Chad,

Thank you for being willing to be an outlet for me. I really appreciate that very much. Thank you so much for praying for me as well.

Sister LLJ,

Thank you so much for you kind words. It really touched my heart and was such a blessing. Your prayer was also so beautiful. When I opened the Bible before I went to class, I got a scripture about how God is testing me, and that there is a season for everything; but without Him that everything means nothing. (Ecc. 3)

Thank you so much for your kindness, it's such a blessing.

Brother Andrew,

Thank you for your words and encourage. I know that I have to continue to turn to the Lord and lean on him. Thank you for praying for me.

--------------------------

I really appreciate all that advice that you have given me. LLJ, as you said, I cannot stop pushing!

May the Lord bless you all very much! I mean that from my heart!

Many Blessings,
Love,

Lord Jesus draw near to my sister today and uplift her. Give her a lift dear Lord I ask as I pray today. Encourage her by the power of the Holy Ghost, and deliver her from all her pains......in Jesus Name I pray.

Amen Amen
 
always online

I'm online all the time and I check this board daily if you ever want to just vent at another girl.
 
Praying earnestly for you, Monkeys. If you haven't already, start reading through Psalms. That's helped me when I've felt like how you describe. Be blessed sister.
 
Hello dear Sister - I hope you have seen a positive response to our humble prayers for you. Keep trusting and say the little prayer - Dear Jesus make Yourself for me a living , bright reality. Amen.
 
My Dear Brothers and Sisters,

Thank you so much for your overwhelming prayers and concern. It means more than I can express! May the Lord bless you all for your compassion.

Things are better now! This last weekend was my father's birthday and opening of his business. There was a lot of work involved, and I am still tired from it. lol. Didn't get any sleep that weekend.

The Lord has been speaking to my heart. Showing me how much He loves me in His special unique ways. I know that after this trial things will be better.

I am encouraged knowing that so many of you have prayed and read my post. Thank you so much, I truly mean it.

Many Blessings,
monkeys
 
Hi monkeys!

Walking with Christ has so many ups and downs. The up times are a lot more fun, I have to admit. But the down times strengthen us and make us more like Him.

Sweet sister, you are becoming more and more like Him.

Love in Christ,
Jan (Dreamer)
