Hello,
My name is Carolyn "Carrie".
I am just writing to ask for prayer.
My husband got into Pharmacy school in Michigan (Big Rapids). Unexpectedly - it was of the Lord!
We need desperate prayer because we are going over there (12 hours) next week to look for a place to live.
I don't know where we are going to stay when we are there when we are looking! Please pray for us.
I am just going to say it - --->We need DESPERATE prayer for money. God will provide and I believe in prayer with all my heart. Prayer kept my grandma alive for an extra year. God can provide money somehow!
When I say money - We are going to need money for a way to go look for a place. We need money for a down payment on a place and also a first months rent. And a pet deposit.
We also are going to need God's hand in guiding us to the right place!
We also are going to need help in finding people to help us move.
We need the money to be able to get a truck or two to move us. And the help to help us move. I hurt my back. I have some neurological problems and I am disabled and I keep falling and I hurt my back really bad and have bruises all over my body.
I have tried to downsize our things...But we still have quite a bit to go.
Please pray for us.
And my husband also needs prayer. Stress! His mother was not very nice to us this weekend. She is not a Christian woman. She needs alot of prayer. Especially for salvation.
She wouldn't talk to me this weekend really. She has hated me since she met me. I don't understand. I am not good enough for Joshua. And I am Christian. So, Josh has stopped alot of the bad things he used to do. And I am to blame. UGH!
Praise - Joshua will graduate with his Bachelor of Science Degree in Biology this summer in a few weeks. Then Pharmacy school in Big Rapids, Michigan.
We did throw one get together on Friday night July 30th, 2004. A few mutual friends showed up and played some board games. And had some cake that was made for him. That was nice.
And on Saturday afternoon July 31st...my mother got a cake and what little family in the area we have - came and said goodbye to Josh and I. And it was hard for me in this party because my grandfather Jack came up from Madison, WI and it was so hard. My grandma just died. So, it was hard for him too. All the memories. And this was the first time he drove up here without her. Please pray for him - Jack and his salvation. PLEASE. He left early because of it.
I gave him (Grandpa Jack) a gift - A painting (the first ever watercolor I ever did) - My grandma did watercolor. So, I wanted to follow in his footsteps.
Then Josh's mom that night (July 31) gave a pity party at the last minute because she didn't want to look bad in front of his friends and my family. She threw a tiny get together if you could call it that! It was supposed to be for Josh and a FEW people stopped by and ate food and left. The only congrats card he got was from his grandma - It was sweet. His grandma's need to get saved. His one grandmother who was very sweet gave Josh a hug and a card.
I brought a congrats cake left over from my mom's house and congradulated Josh outloud in front of everyone and his mother yelled louder than me when I was done and said or yelled out "We will be having a party for Joshua after he graduates Pharmacy school". In my head I kept thinking...What if his grandma's don't make it that long...That is 5 years! 5 years until he graduates!
His brother who is in Chicago hasn't even acknowleged us.
I guess I have to let it go.
Anyways, please pray for us because right now I don't know what to do but have people pray for us. I believe with all my heart and I am going to rely on God's promises that he will get us to Michigan for Josh's schooling. And help us with money in every way. Please pray!
And please don't write me mean emails. I am not trying to scam anyone. I just need prayer. If you can't send me anything. Just write me for encouragement. Don't be mean. I don't know how to prove to you that I am real and just me. I am 27 years old. I have been sick since I was 18. Joshua is 28. And we love God. We will pray for you too if you need it.
Carolyn
Please also pray to keep Satan away from us. IN every way. Help us to have angels all around us.
Can you please pray for my brother Danny? I haven't seen him to say goodbye. And my sister Aimie needs alot of help...she has lupus and is rebelling and doing alot of bad things. And pray for my other sister Liz and her baby and her husband Justin. Thank you. Oh...and my parents...Thanks. Oh, and salvation for both Josh's and my side of the family....and grief and comfort and financial help. PLEASE pray...Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
I am crying because life may get better for us with this fresh start. We need God to work in so many areas of our lives. Please just pray for us. Please don't be mean to me ok?? Please.
Also, this move really is a thing I am dreading. I am not emotionally ok. And mentally ok. I have some problems. SO, please pray for my healing. And for my back and hips and to not fall alot. PLEASE! and that I won't get suicidal or weird or anything. Just pray for us.
Please pray that I find the right doctors soon! God knows details.
Especially financially! I have to believe God is going to do what he promises in his word...Take care of us.
Please pass our prayer request along!
Thank you.
Carolyn

Lord, I ask that You would provide out of Your abundant riches for Carrie and her husband. I agree in prayer with her, and we come before You with all their needs and surrender them to You, we lay them at the foot of Your cross, and are going to trust You. I pray that Carrie and her husband get all the money they need, that You provide them with a house.
I pray for Joshua's mom, that You would reveal to her how much You love her. That You would soften her heart and she would come to know You. I pray for peace in the family, that You become the foundation. I pray this also for Jack.
Lord, You are a faithful God and I pray that Your promises will come to pass for these two.
In Jesus' Name, I ask that You would place a sheild over them, that You would guard them from any danger, You say that You will encamp around all those who fear You, encamp around Carrie and Joshua, Lord. Keep all evil away from them, don't allow satan to harm, lie or cheat them. Let him not be able to form any bonds and if there are any I ask that You would break them, in Your Name.
'an you please pray for my brother Danny? I haven't seen him to say goodbye. And my sister Aimie needs alot of help...she has lupus and is rebelling and doing alot of bad things.

I pray that You would help all these people, show them Your love, place that revelation in their hearts.
Restore and heal this family, Lord, fill them with Your Holy Spirit and power.
Lord, I just lift up Josh and Carrie to You again and I ask that Your favour would be upon them. Be with them, let them experience Your presence, heal them of all hurts. Jesus I ask that You would heal Carrie, take away her pain, provide the right doctors who are qualified in Your sight. Your will be done, in Jesus' Name. AMEN.
