I'm so glad you have joined the forum Julie. I'm sure you will be a asset to all the forums.

I send you prayers, Jason, and to all who need prayers for healing and strength. I wish you all enough of all that you may need. God bless and keep you all in His loving light of guidance and protection.

Thank you so much, Lynne. In the time since I posted last, I have had some horrific memories turn up in my stuff with the abuse/incest that occured when I was young. I can't recall if I described it to you. Anyway, could you please just pray that I deal with this in a way that glorifies God and benefits my well-being? I'm having problems right now.... Details are on the child abuse forum.... I'll be okay. God has brought me through this ALIVE so far; there's no way He's leaving me now. I just hurt so bad I can hardly believe it.

Lynne, Deb (our Alaska Editor) put this in another forum (Christian Literature). I copied her request to put it here. She really needs some help with prayers:

Lynn, this is Deb Frost (BellaOnline Alaska Editor). I can't get to my home cvomputer, so have signed on with a new (temp) ID.

I am in Anchorage with my husband - Alaska Regional Hospital. He was badly injured two days ago - severe head trauma - and is in critical condition. Not yet responding visually or verbally, but he seems to know I am here, so I am NOT going anywhere.

I could really use prayers. ANYONE who wants to help out sending any our way - please do.

Why don't we have a plain old generic "Christian" Site here at BellaOnline? <sigh>

Please send hugs.

Thank you Phyllis,
I saw your post in the Editor forum and I'm praying for him and for Deb.

Have read the post and have prayed for you also; I am sure this is a very difficult time for you. May God grant you His peace....

Hi, I am fairly new to Bellaonline and love it. I have submitted a couple of articles because I would love to be an editor. Would you please pray that I may get a chance as being at editor. I am a published author of magazines. Also I would love to join your prayer chain as I believe whole heartly in the power of prayer. So anytime there is a prayer need just let me know.

Hi Linda,
Welcome to our forum. What topic are you applying for?

My prayer request that I don't lose my husband again over the [censored] my mother in law is pulling. For the 2nd time in a month I actually walked out of my own house- AGAIN.

Please pray that my heart will learn to forgive all the nonsense that she is pulling, with her innocent act hiding her claws.

Dianne, I'm so sorry you are experiencing this. Although it is hard for many men to do, it is biblical that he LEAVES his father and mother. You are to be first in his life.

I'm praying for you to be able to forgive her and I'm praying that your husband will stand up for you.
