URGENT PRAYER NEEDED FOR AN 84 YEAR OLD WIDOW (UPDATE, May 9, 2008)

Dear Prayer Warriors,

I have been blessed with the most wonderful landlord/friend in the world. She is almost 84 years young and a widow. Her late husband had a multi million-dollar “foundation” in which he donated money to several causes. He was very frugal with his wife and left her nothing. She lives in beautiful 2-story house. I rent the upstairs along with 2 of my 3 children and 2 cats. She has had to advocate for everything from having the “foundation” pay for the car he bought to keeping her Social Security. She thought she was guaranteed the income I pay her for the rent.

Now the “foundation” said her late husband stated the “foundation “ gets the money I pay her. She is a wonderful, generous person who spends a lot of time helping others. I have known her for less than 2 years, but she is a gift to my children and myself. I am asking for prayers for her to keep getting the money for my rent. It makes things easier on both of us. I do things for her around the house to keep the rent down.

She has done so much volunteer work for our community and goes to church every Sunday and prays for many. She, like most senior citizens have a “fixed” income. The money I pay her for the rent, helps her live with peace of mind knowing she can do a little more and still save.

I pray on May 9, 2008, when this goes to the judge, she can keep her rent money. Her late husband didn’t set her up with extra income or anything else. He didn’t leave his own kids anything either. The house is not in her name, so she is at the mercy of the judge. I would like you to pray for this WONDERFUL person, who should not have this kind of worry at her age. PLEASE PRAY FOR HER!!!

Thank you!

Talked to my landlord yesterday and she was in tears. Her income will be around $500 a month if she loses my rent money. PLEASE PRAY FOR HER!!!

Update - 15 days ago:

I vacuumed and washed my landlord's floors this morning. We had coffee and I told her I posted her situation at a prayer site. She is deeply touched by ALL OF YOU! She says THANK YOU FOR YOUR PRAYERS AND PLEASE CONTINUE TO PRAY FOR HER AND I. The foundation could raise my rent sky high and I might end up homeless if this happens! THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR PRAYERS,CANDLES and SUPPORT! This means alot to BOTH OF US. THANK YOU and please continue to pray. I don't have money for candles so I can't light as many as I would like to.

I spoke to my landlord today.....I come to this site with a heavy heart. She told met that the "foundation" will be taking over my rent money and she will get paid a small amount of money as a caretaker. Somehow I don't understand and this is not fair. I don't feel right and not sure what happens next??? Thanks for all of your prayers as I now feel defeated

Oh, Burgandy, I am a little diappointed that God did not answer our prayer. One thing, don't not let your heart be burdened to the point of being paralyzed with them. Cast your paryers on the Lord for he cares about you. Calm down and let your thoughts get into the right frame of mind. You can think better and seek the solution to your problem. I pray for you and your landlord. Our first reaction is frustration and sometimes anger at the unfairness of it all. Even I feel frustrated that this dear lady got the bad end of the stick. But don't give up on God. If we don't have God, where are we going to turn?? He will guide you and turn your frustration into Joy. People will come and help you. Or guide you to them. And always know that we are here for you.Praying for you. With all my heart I pray God's blessing upon you and your family. In Jesus name,Amen!!
