Prayers for my daughter struggling with mental illness. Very bad depression and OCD . For healing and the correct help to help her feel better

I lift our children to you. I thank you for these precious gifts of life and for entrusting them to my care. Please bless them today with a wonderful first day. Send your angels to protect them and calm their worries. Wrap them Lord in your loving arms. Help them to have a positive relationship with their teachers. Help their teachers to walk in integrity and guide their steps and their lessons, may they teach the children in all your ways. I pray that you bless them with the ability to learn easily and retain knowledge. Lord, you are the source of all wisdom and knowledge. Your word tells us we have the mind of Christ. I pray that you would pour your wisdom and understanding upon our children so they can grasp concepts quickly and easily. Help them to develop a love for learning and to see the value in education. I pray there school adopts a relevant curriculum that prepares them for their future. I pray our children have a positive attitude toward learning and accepts the full curriculum as preparing them for their career path. I pray that our children will have the strength and determination to overcome any challenges or obstacles that come their way. May they be encouraged and inspired to pursue their dreams and aspirations.Lord, I commit our children to your loving care, knowing that you have a plan and a purpose for their lives. I trust in your provision and guidance, and I pray that our children will grow in knowledge and wisdom and in their love for you. May their lives bring you glory and honor. Bless them with Christian friends that are walking in your ways. Strengthen their faith and friendships. In the name of Jesus Christ I pray amen.

I was hesitant to bring this prayer request forward as it is the third time since this past June 13th that I have submitted a prayer request for my unemployment situation. I was optimistic in my first prayer request submission and openly shared the difficult challenges that I have faced over the past five to six years and how God has led me through each of those trials from divorce, being diagnosed with a cancerous brain tumor, followed by surgery, radiation, and chemo, the passing of close family members, major house repairs, having emergency laser surgery to save the sight in my right eye, recently having internal bleeding due to a complication of an out-patient surgical procedure, and the list goes on….and then being let go from my job this past June. Having said that, God has been providing and has taken care of my roof that recently needed to be replaced and my central air that went out this spring was also replaced without any cost to me. I am thankful to him for his love and grace. However, to be brutally honest, the past five to six years have challenged my faith beyond comprehension. I know that God is sovereign, he is faithful, and he loves us. We live in a broken world and bad things will happen to us all. What I do know is that nothing comes into our lives that God is not aware of. James 1:2-4 says, "Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything." (NIV) I have a few close friends that are aware of all of the trials that have come my way and they have been very supportive. Of course, I have questioned God as to why he has allowed these trials to go on for so long. I can't and don't blame God at all. In fact, my relationship with God is closer than it has ever been in my life since I chose to follow him at age twelve. It may sound foolish to say this, but in some ways my current unemployment situation feels more difficult than going through the brain tumor situation. I don't know why God is allowing me to go through these difficult trials, but I have to continue to trust him and in his love. He must have a purpose in this. If I can borrow a familiar phrase…"I don't know what tomorrow holds, but I know who holds tomorrow." Proverbs 3:5-6. "Trust in the Lord with all of your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him and he will make your paths straight." (NIV). I would appreciate your prayers as I continue to seek employment and trusting God to guide my steps. There is no better place to be than to be in the center of his will. – Thank you.

I would like to ask if people can pray for a family grieving the loss of their 13 year old that passed away unexpectedly 9/5/24 here in Watertown. She was a bright soul that could light up a room wherever she would go. She loved skating, art, and spending time with family and friends.
