I pray for mercy and grace and to reunite with my family. It as been so difficult on a daily basis. I cry out to the Lord and don't think he hears me. I am elderly, alone and have a hard time taking care of my home. I've turned into a shut in. I have no friends and no family that will come and visit me. Please pray for me and my family.

Hi Mary,

I' going to offer you some practical information. Join the local Senior Center. This is what I did about five years ago.

I learned to play Bridge at the center and have met very many wonderful women. My other friends have taken up painting or pickleball. Or, the library in town may have a book club that meets once a month. You don't have to shut people out. You have options. Be brave. Life still has a lot to offer you.

God bless you.

Mary I pray right now that the HOLY SPIRIT will come and comfort you and take away all the loneliness your feeling.I also pray that your family will realize that you need them in your life and they need you! They don't realize this right now because satan has them blinded so we ask our Heavenly Father to take the scales off their eyes so they can see. Let's agree to and ask JESUS for your friends to come around and even some new friends who are also believers.I have to say that you have to let your family know that you are lonely and miss them in your life. We often don't realize these things until it's too late. GOD bless you Mary and stay in prayer. Also you can call a church in your area that provides transportation for you to get to church and Bible studies.

Thank you for your prayers. My son knows I miss him and need him ,but he doesn't care don't care. He says i am toxic and dislikes my views. I have stood by him more times than I can count, seem him go thu so many girlfriends and with 5 or 5 kids that he wanted me to always accept. He is now with a woman that has convinced him that he as changed for the better, which includes drinking and pot. I didn't raise him to use foul works but that is all that he, his girlfriend, her 4 kids speak. It is hard to be dismissed by my own blood. I have prayed for over 3 years over this. God didn't seem to hear me.

Dear Mary, if you are a born-again believer in Christ, He hears your prayer. Sometimes we have to be patient and wait upon Him.

1 John 5:14-15 - And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us:

Psalm 56:3 - Whenever I am afraid, I will trust in You.

Psalms 46:10 Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth

And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. Romans 8:28

2 Timothy 1:12 - for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day.

God bless you, Mary!
