andysw Posted September 28, 2007 Share Posted September 28, 2007 Can I ask for prayer requests here on the loveshack forums? Link to post Share on other sites
Trimmer Posted September 28, 2007 Share Posted September 28, 2007 Do you mean you want to make a request and ask people for prayers, or you want to solicit people who want to make requests themselves? Link to post Share on other sites
Author andysw Posted September 28, 2007 Author Share Posted September 28, 2007 Do you mean you want to make a request and ask people for prayers, or you want to solicit people who want to make requests themselves? I was asking if it was okay if you guys could pray for me on loveshack or your personal prayers for something that I had in mind. Link to post Share on other sites
Trimmer Posted September 28, 2007 Share Posted September 28, 2007 Don't see anything wrong with asking... What is your situation? Link to post Share on other sites
Author andysw Posted September 28, 2007 Author Share Posted September 28, 2007 Don't see anything wrong with asking... What is your situation? I've been feeling pretty hallow in my heart for the past few days and feel as though all of my emotions have been sucked away. Because of this, I can't feel strong and be myself. My love and respect for and from people are starting to slip away, and sometimes I try making myself feel open and all, but it's like my heart can't be lifted as if it's been piled up by a 100 rocks and it feels depressing.

quankanne Posted September 28, 2007 Share Posted September 28, 2007 this place is really pretty good about positive encouragement, whether through prayer, encouraging words or thoughts. Just let us know what you're seeking support (my dad is in the hospital, please keep him in your prayers for smooth recovery, etc). so just let us know, okay? Link to post Share on other sites

I'm going to be honest here, I really want all of your supports in prayer for the things that I'm having issues of. At the moment, my parents pray for me that to give me intelligence for my college course, and to open up myself with no hesitation, so that I could be the person I truly am - socialable, making new friends, and successful in education. I suppose you wouldn't expect this kind of problem from a 17 year old. I guess I'm an exception. Link to post Share on other sites

quankanne Posted September 28, 2007 Share Posted September 28, 2007 I've offered up a prayer for you, that you are able to find balance in your life as a college student ... that you learn patience in dealing with others so that you can be at peace with them and within yourself. q Link to post Share on other sites

Author andysw Posted September 28, 2007 Author Share Posted September 28, 2007 so what's going on?? are you stressed about starting college, meeting new people....what?? you can get advise here on top of prayers. Yeah, I'm beginning to feel stressed not know my classmates and it's only been 3 weeks. Since my first day of college last year doing my a-levels I've been exposed to lonliness, because simply I didn't know people, so I was reluctant to lonliness and uncompanionship. Me and my friends (and my best friends) parted, it wasn't deliberate. Now, it's like deja vu. Before college started, I was so determined to be the exact opposite as was before, but then my emotional motives somehow disappeared. I met one of my best friends there after a year later, but his attitude changed - not treating me as he does with his own friends. The course I'm taking now is media, and it partly involves working together as a team/group. Just today, we were supposed to film a two minute documentary, but two of my team/groupmates were absent so I was the only one, then I had to temporarily work with another group - it was awkward as hell - I was the quiet one, and every time the group and I had to film indoors I always have to wait outside and wait to look after the equipments. I got so annoyed. This is how stressful and difficult it is, which was why I come to the loveshack community for your prayers to be back on track again. At the moment, my parents pray for these things for me, but I feel that they're not enough, so I ask more prayers from you. Please let me be in your prayers. Link to post Share on other sites

Author andysw Posted October 15, 2007 Author Share Posted October 15, 2007 At the moment I feel as if my heart wasn't there wherever I go, and this hollow sensation is starting to come back. Because of this horrible feel, I just feel that I'm not worth living for, and I can't make friends or join social activities (whether I'm invited or not). I don't want to live like this anymore and be lonely. My heart feels like a rock and it won't stop hurting. Please let me be I your prayers (and also I will pray with my self and with my parents seperately). Link to post Share on other sites
Lizzie60 Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 I will send you my best 'vibes' your way... Don't give up... when you think that nothing is worth it anymore... I swear it will change for the better... there is always something good coming your way... whether you know it or not at this moment... trust me on that one... it's just around the corner. Smile!

Please let me be I your prayers (and also I will pray with my self and with my parents seperately). My position now: I'm now in college and already haven't formed an acquaintance with classmates, because effectively I didn't know how to make a move, being sociable and make new friendships. Now it's been a month and still have no acqaintance. There are 3 to 4 effective groups in my class/course and I don't know how to join in one, because I'm afraid of rejection or ignorance, and I believe my impression to those of being quietest and awkward and lonesome has already been established and I don't know how to change that.

Jmina Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 The fact that you have come here and asked us to pray for you, tells me that you have a lot of love inside for yourself. many people would say "dont bother im not worth it" or "its too late to pray for me" or "im so depressed i dont belive it would work" but you have hope, and love. lvoe is too sided.. support and challange.. at the moment you are being challanged. it is still love because good can still come from it. this is great for you. keep your heart open and treat yourself kindly. you will only learn from this, a blessing in disguise. things happen to us because someone up there loves us. read my post in coping "prayer answered" ill pray for you,that you will find your inner strength. it is inside you somewhere.

Author andysw Posted October 15, 2007 Author Share Posted October 15, 2007 The fact that I have this depressing issue, is because God put me into this position in order for me to come (closer) to him by my own free will for help? Is that what God wanted me to do? Link to post Share on other sites
