Please pray for me I'm saved I've been helping somebody else out for the last 5 years now I'm going to become homeless I'm going to fall through the cracks I do know a lot of people but nobody's going to step up to the plate and I understand please pray for me thank you

My dear brother have Faith and trust in the Lord he will provide all you need. It is written in Proverbs 3:5-6 Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and He will make straight your paths. Take it one day at a time and through prayer and supplication, the Lord will make a way.

Thank you brother for responding I apologize forgive me for not responding to thank you I'm not good in this so thank you again my Lord Jesus Christ God bless you for this thank you again

Hello John. First let me say that you will NOT fall through ANY cracks; though it MIGHT seem as though you are; because GOD SEES YOU; and HE LOVES YOU; and He will NEVER STOP loving you. People WILL sometimes not be there for us; but that is not so with The Lord. He loves you 'with an EVER-LASTING love'.

I pray in Jesus' Name that your ears will be MORE widely open to His voice; His leading; His direction; to know PRECISELY what to do; what not to do; and to follow the Scripture and BELIEVE it..."Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight. Be not wise in your own eyes; fear the LORD and turn away from evil. It will be health to your flesh, And strength to your bones." Proverbs 3:5-9.

No matter WHAT comes our way John, ALL of it; as someone taught me; is 'filtered' through God's loving hands. Nothing can befall us that is beyond God's love. The HARDEST circumstances are ALWAYS to show us something. God's love. His mercy. His Truth. His provision. He doesn't beat us up to be cruel; He is not a sinner as we are; ALL that He does; ALL that He allows, is for SOME good. OUR good; or somehow; the good of someone else.

I will share something The Lord gave me a few years ago for a woman I know who was going through a difficult time; including not having family members to show her compassion. The Lord gave me this to say to her; and I'll share it with you...."If you have everything BUT Jesus; you have NOTHING. If you have NOTHING but Jesus; you have EVERYTHING."

And so it is for all of us. I pray you come to the place where, IF you DO become homeless; that The Lord will cause you to see it as a blessing; to have ALL worldly ENTANGLEMENTS taken from you; that you may have Christ and HE ALONE; which is EVERYTHING. I pray you won't feel any fear or abandonment of The Faith; but that That Faith will grow STRONGER; and that God's PERFECT will may done to, for and in you.

I'm not good with technology I'm kind of slow if this is incorrect I apologize this is not simple technology for me but thank you for replying I'm scared the person I have to help is in the nursing home I'm more concerned about her than me thank you I'm sorry but the homeless thing is coming you read what you sow I don't I know enough I'm sorry you're the only person or website that response there's so many others that I reach out nobody answers

Hello again John. I am touched by the fact that you are more concerned about the woman in the nursing home than you are for yourself; for your circumstances. THAT is GODLY love; and God will bless you for that John.

By the way; I'm TERRIBLE with technology so PLEASE don't feel bad; you're doing fine.

I am sorry that it seems imminent that you WILL be homeless. I wish I could help you in some tangible way.

Are there ANY organizations anywhere around you John; any 'Rescue Missions" or outreaches; even a YMCA type place that you could call to see if you could stay in one of them if in fact you are displaced from your home?

I'm VERY sorry John that no one has reached out to offer you help. I hear this so VERY frequently with people John; and it breaks my heart. I think people have become selfish...as God says in His Word would happen in the end-times...and others are overwhelmed I think with so many problems themselves. Or; we tend to believe, erroneously most times; that "Someone else will help".

God hears you John; He sees you; His loving and caring eyes are EVER upon you; and He WILL help; though He MAY not help in the ways we THINK He will; but the bottom line is, HE WILL.

Right now though John; I just lift BOTH you; and the woman you have cared for up before The Lord; and I ask Him to come alongside; to assist you; to help you to do what He knows is best for BOTH of you; AND to let all that is beyond your control be put permanently into His capable hands and to trust Him to work it all out; in His way; in His time. May He grant you His wisdom; His discernment; His counsel; His peace that passes ALL understanding; and cause you to not be UNDER these circumstances but to be ABOVE them; and may He be with the woman; minister to her mind, heart, soul, spirit, and body; and keep her safe from harm; and have His perfect will in her. I'll check back again to see if you've responded and if there is anything else I can do. Just know you are NOT FORGOTTEN; nor the woman.

I talk and text so forgive me for the words mix up thank you it's good to read somebody cares the woman is my ex-wife it started out just a temporary thing and 5 years later well I'm there now there's a lot of good people there with technology today resource are hard to get through to get help I still work but they don't do paper applications anymore you have to do the computer stuff if it doesn't work it doesn't work that's how it is I start doing blood that's $20 a week I have a job but I'm 60 years old I haven't given up yet yes we are in the end times I believe I think what goes on with me is have unconditional love think about others before yourself just don't know how far he's going to let me go I don't do things for the rewards I do it because I like being on his team I like being good towards man just evils everywhere I better go a lot of text forgive me if this is boring take care

Hello again John. Please don't worry about how you communicate; you're doing fine. My husband and I are not great with technology either; so I totally understand! But you're all right; no worries.

It's a great pity and shame that so MANY things are done by computer now and not on paper. What was SUPPOSED to 'make things easier' actually has made EVERYTHING so MUCH more complicated.

I feel bad if you have to donate blood to make money. The church in America and maybe worldwide is in a complete shambles.

There ARE yet REAL churches that minister Biblically; and know how to be there for those in need; but it's getting more rare every day; I'm very grieved that so far no one has stepped up to the plate to help you John. But as you know, God will NEVER fail you; even when it APPEARS that He is. He won't.

I think it's totally awesome that you are there for your ex-wife; and that you are so 'others-minded'; as Christ His Self is; and as He wants ALL of us to be.

I pray that God will make a way where there SEEMS to be NO way; BOTH for you with your financial/home situation and for your ex-wife. I pray God will send people to both of you to minister to you; ONLY those who are TRULY of God; NO ONE that will try to rip you off in any way...I HATE to even WRITE this; but sadly; you and all of us must be on guard a little for such things. We have to ask God for His wisdom and discernment in who we look to for help.

I, and I'm SURE that so MANY others on here John; those that may not respond to you at all; are in fact thinking of you; remembering you in prayer and your wife as well; and above all; JESUS CHRIST 'EVER LIVES TO MAKE INTERCESSION' for YOU John; for your wife; for ALL of His children. Please hold fast to that truth John; as you are tested in The Faith.

Take care John; and please, as you are able to; stay in touch with all of us. May The Lord bless you; comfort you; strengthen you in The Faith; and cause you (And all of us) to BE "MORE THAN conquerors" through Christ

Thank you for responding God will bless you and your husband for you responding I went on this website yesterday and I said a prayer for all the people that me healing and their prayers will be answered maybe God's using me maybe baby when people read this they might know somebody it's the little things that count not the big things I told my son God doesn't want us to paint the house just take the garbage can out or get their paper or cut their grass it's the little things there's a lot of people in the Bible that things happen to them so we can learn maybe that's what's happening with me I know there's a lot of worse people off than me I pray for healing for all of y'all in Jesus name I pray amen

Hello again John. I believe that what you did by coming to this site and praying for the people on here who posted prayer requests was the right thing to do. I was told about this site by a family member who said that she felt that I (And her too) could benefit greatly by being more mindful of the needs of others and less mindful of our own needs. God's Word says in Proverbs 11:25, "The generous man will be prosperous, And he who waters will himself be watered."

Sometimes we can feel so 'dry' spiritually and maybe other ways as well, physically; mentally; emotionally; financially; and it could be (At times) because we have not been 'watering' others. If or when we do; God will SEE TO IT that WE get 'watered' as well. So I think it was good that you prayed for people on here John.

And you are so right, we can get so caught up thinking, "I can't help that person; I don't have lots of money or lots of time or lots of ANYTHING...so I won't DO anything." But so often, it really IS the seemingly small things that we do for each other (IF we do them) that blesses them the most. Most of us don't NEED a million dollars; or NEED massive amounts of help, but just SOMETHING to remind us that we are not lost in the crowd; something that encourages our hearts and our spirits to keep going on. And maybe God is using your situation...NO....God IS using your situation John for SOME kind of good that you nor others might see yet. God may be teaching YOU something but He may also be teaching OTHERS something by what you are going through and HOW you go through it.

May The Lord be lifted up and magnified and glorified through you John and through what you are going through, and the Godly way; by HIS grace; that you go through it. All glory; honor; and praise to The Lord in ALL things.

Take care John; God bless.
