Petitionary Prayer: April 8

This month’s theme here at Rebecca Writes is petitionary prayer. On Tuesdays and Fridays throughout April, I’ll be posting one request I am making of God, and I’m inviting you to join me. You’ll find all the details here.

  • Today I prayed for youngest son, who is in his last week of classes. He is juggling several big assignments that are due in the next few days and is feeling the pressure. I’m asking that God give him the motivation, energy and clear thinking he needs to do what is required of him. Essentially, I’m asking God to rescue him from a pickle of his own making. Then, too, I’m asking that God teach son what he needs to learn from this experience.
  • Staci at Writing and Living is asking for “the energy to get all the closets cleaned out.”
  • Pam asks that we pray for her health:
    I am down with pneumonia … Dr.wanted me in hospital but I asked to stay home. I go to his office for breathing treatments, on steroids, antibiotics, etc. Finally starting to breathe easier. Missing work and don’t have much energy. I am asthmatic which compounds things. Haven’t even been blogging, just reading. Prayers would be appreciated.
What about you? What are you praying for today?

Thanks for sharing. A pickle of my own making is why my closets are in the state that they're in.

I am down with pneumonia ... Dr.wanted me in hospital but I asked to stay home. I go to his office for breathing treatments, on steroids, antibiotics, etc. Finally starting to breathe easier. Missing work and don't have much energy. I am asthmatic which compounds things. Haven't even been blogging, just reading. Prayers would be appreciated.

I'm glad that things are starting to look up just a little. I'll pray for a continued (and quick) recovery and I hope others will as well.

I have a daughter in Los Angeles suffering from severe depression. She is not a Christian, so I am praying that God would draw her to Himself in the midst of her suffering.
