prayer please

If there is anyone out there in blog land- I am in huge need of prayer right now.... my financial problems have caught up with me and things are just not good right now... I'm an absolute mess- and never been so scared in all my life!

I was able to get an emergency appointment with Fr Nigel tomorrow (he's not in the office today, but I so wish he were)- talked with one of his staff who prayed with me over the phone- thank you God for Sandra!

I don't want to loose faith-- but right now, I am... and just cant pray. It's not that I don't believe that God loves me- I know He does- He just seems VERY far away right now.

Thanks for the prayers.... they're appreciated!

I was just praying for you and God brought this song to my mind. I don't know if you've heard it... it's called Life Is Hard but God Is Good.

Even when we can't find the words to pray, God hears our spirit! He is omniscient... He knows all, hears all, sees all.

He loves you! He's going to meet your needs, and I'm praying right now that He gives you some unexpected blessings to encourage your faith.

If you get a chance listen to that song. You can find it on YouTube at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rknVkcGNNJ0.

In God's love,
Stacey

Hey Stacey- Not completely sure how to reply to your comment, but hoping this works...

Thank you SO much for your prayers, encouragement and reminders about God's love. While I know that He is there, and loves me so much- He just feels very far away sometimes. But- in moments like your post- I see God's love for me... Thank you for letting God use you today!

Loved the song- it was so beautiful and the words spoke exactly what my heart is feeling right now. Made me cry- but sometimes that's a good thing! Thanks for pointing me to that!

BTW- met with my priest, Fr Nigel today (he's amazing!), and though nothing has really changed with the situation, he spoke the love and peace of God over me and through me. I'm much more calm than I was yesterday--- I know that's God! I think I may even be able to sleep tonight!

Thanks again!!!
Peace and Healing-
Michele
