Prayer Request

Please continue to pray for me. I'm disappointed in my grown kids because they don't call or even check on me for weeks. The sons are living with girlfriends and my daughter is married. Sometimes I just feel so alone even though I know the Lord is with me. Thanks!

Dear Lizzy777,
A Prayer for Those Who Live Alone

I live alone, dear Lord, stay by my side.
In all my needs, please be my guide.

Grant me good health, for that I pray,
to carry on my work each day.

Keep pure my mind, my thoughts and deeds.
Help me be kind, to meet others' needs.

Save me from harm and malicious tongues,
from pain and fear and evil one.

When I am sick, in need of care,
O Lord, I pray, that You be near.

When I am low or in despair,
lift up my heart and hear my prayer.

I live alone, dear Lord, yet have no fear,
because I know, that You are near.
Amen.
==================================
Is Your Hut Burning?

The only survivor of a shipwreck was washed up on a small, uninhabited island. He prayed feverishly to God to rescue him, and everyday he scanned the horizon for help, but none seemed forthcoming.

Exhausted, he eventually managed to build a little hut out of driftwood to protect him from the elements, and to store his few possessions. But then one day, after scavenging for food, he arrived home to find his little hut in flames, the smoke rolling up to the sky. The worst had happened, everything was lost. He was stunned with grief and anger.” God how could You do this to me!" he cried.

Early the next day, however, he was awakened by the sound of a ship that was approaching the island. It had come to rescue him.
"How did you know I was here?" asked the weary man of his rescuers.
"We saw your smoke signal", they replied.
It is easily to get discouraged when things are going badly. But we shouldn't lose heart, because God is at work in our lives, even in the midst of pain and suffering. Remember, next time your little hut is burning to the ground.---it maybe a smoke signal to summons the grace of God.
