Also, today I started reading the Bible and will be studying with my friend as a support buddy. She's great. I think this will help me be stronger and have more hope and faith that God will lead me out of depression and make me a stronger person, and lose weight through faith.
My gpa name is hercules..lol yes Hercules. He has a strong mind but sadly his body is weak. He has been sick for 2 years and its getting worst. He just turned 85 please keep him in your prayers. Also for my gma who is his caregiver and is running herself ragged taking care of him 24/7.
I'd just like for someone to pray that God helps me find my path in life. I have dreams and goals and I just don't want to blow it. Please pray that god teaches me control, humility and patience.
BEILA ~ prayers going up for you for sure; yes, we are all in the same boat. I'm asking GOD to help you with your depression; and to give you some control with your eating through his Holy Spirit's power. I know that HE can answer you quickly sending good people into your life to help & encourage you too. Seek out positive, hopeful verses in the word (Psalms & Proverbs are good) and write down those that encourage you. Read them over & over, and they will help you to feel better ...

HE bore our griefs; HE was wounded for our transgressions; HE was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement of our Peace was upon HIM; and by HIS stripes, we ARE healed! (Isaiah 53:5)

Asking for prayers for the Southwest Missouri (Joplin area) where it was just destroyed by a tornado. I live in Carthage which is only about 10 miles away and have family in Joplin. We had several sirens go off here but we are fine. Lots of coverage on the weather channel. Right now they are evacuating one of the hospitals because of a fire and possible explosion. Pretty scary. Still more systems coming through later this evening. Thanks a lot
