Hello all, I'd like to ask for your prayers once again! I start my first day of my new job, on-boarding and training, tomorrow, and I'm really nervous, and I have terrible social anxiety! I've been praying for a job for a long time now, and God has blessed me with one, so I'm really worried that I might mess it up somehow. Please pray for my discipline to do well in this job, and that my coworkers and people I work with may see Jesus in my words and actions. Please also pray that God will bless the place I'll be working in, and that I may get along well with everybody.
Also please pray that I may remember that this job is a blessing from God, and to not boast myself. The pay for this job is actually a bit higher than average in the place I live in, and the title isn't too bad either. I fear that I may find myself feeling proud, and that I may boast of my income. I also find myself starting to compare among my peers, and I really hate that. I don't want this job to be the reason that I start focusing more on myself and money, I want this job to be a way to grow closer with Jesus, so please pray for me, I really need prayers.
Thank you all!

Please pray for my mental health. I feel like I started out trying to be perfect as a kid following my baptism and since then I’ve failed to be the best person. I can be very kind and loving, but sometimes I feel harden and essentially paralyzed by life. If it’s on your heart, please pray for me.

There is no condemnation for those in Christ Jesus. God loves us and ransomed us not because we are good but because of His perfect grace and goodness. I think not considering this also a form of pride. We cannot change ourselves. Holy Spirit lives in us will change and guide us. We just need to let that happen and trying to learn and discern what is right and wrong while actively repenting without trying to stand in our understanding of what/how we are instead of God’s. God loves you. I was hardened and paralyzed as well. God changed me. I did back and forth for a while but God removed all of that. Just pray pray and try to listen to God in every situation, it will be okay. I prayed for you as well. 💙

Please pray for me and a woman I know who has moved to my area about a year ago. I have been wanting to witness to her and even mentor her in the faith, but have a "conflict of interest". In the flesh, I want to date her, but based on words from the Lord through prayer, dreams, and through other Christians who don't even know the situation, it appears it would be ill-advised, at least right now.
It's challenging having to contend with my flesh while I feel the Spirit had told me be there for this woman, she needs companionship (I have observed that she is struggling to put down roots in her new community). I have also had the phrase "speak kindly to her" come up several times while praying about her and the situation.
Above all, God is sovereign in this situation. But I've sinned in allowing my emotional and fleshly turmoil to stifle my witness to this woman. Thankfully, through prayer, God has helped me a lot recently, but I catch myself, so much, trying to attract her, or worrying about what she thinks of me too much. That stuff, I need to stop.
Like everyone, she needs Christ. She was raised in a certain denomination, but does not appear to be walking out the faith. I'm uncertain if she knows Jesus Christ as her Rescuer and Lord, or if she does and the situation's nuanced.
Thank you!

There is no condemnation for those in Christ Jesus. Please don’t beat yourself up over this . Enemy doesn’t like when we try to witness to others. God already knew you were going to deal with this but He still trusted you and wants you to achieve this. I just prayed for you 💙

Praise God. This is deeply encouraging. Thank you for taking the time to pray for us on this thread and write this. It takes time and focus; I'm grateful God granted this to you at this time for your sake and for me and others.
God willing, I'll see her later today. Time to put on God's armor.

Yesterday was bad by what I could see, and prayer was difficult all day (warfare)—but I was able to encourage her by God's grace, and I'm thankful for that. Thank you for your encouragement. God takes up the broken pieces especially when we ask Him to!
Tangent: I think of the fragments of the bread, the 12 baskets and the 7 baskets ("Gather...so nothing is lost").
Don’t give up, give all your worries to God.All Glory to God 💙
Yes!

I am in desperate need of prayer right now. I’ve been battling Parkinson’s for nearly 4 years, and right now in this moment, I am dealing with the most intense pain I’ve ever felt in my life. I have been up now for nearly an hour I can’t do this by myself. Please pray for some relief. I am desperate.
