Thank you all for your kindness, words of advice and encouragement and most especially for your prayers. It is so appreciated.

I did get the opportunity to sit down with my daughter and visit. And, she was receptive for the most part. She didn’t agree with everything and, in fact, called me “Sister Mary” in a playful way (as in I was being too holy, apparently). But, we did spend a few minutes together in Adoration today. It wasn’t her idea, certainly; I told her she could drive my car if she took me to Church. Since a cool Adoration chapel beats a hot car, she came in. But, regardless of her motives, she went.

I don’t know that our situation will change dramatically or overnight, but being in Adoration with her today gave me some hope. I have no doubt the prayers here played a part in that, so thank you again. You all remain in my prayers as well. God Bless.
 
You got your daughter to Adoration?! Wow! That’s great!

Getting my daughter into a church at that age was like trying to get Damien from “The Omen” into a Holy Place. Yikes! 😉

God Bless and keep truckin’
 
Thank you for the flowers Trishie. I wish someone had told me what was about to happen when my daughter turned 13. Then again, I probably would not have believed it.

We comfort with the comfort with which God has comforted us.
 
Heavenly Father, we lift this mother and daughter up to You. Give this mother encouragement and help in raising her daughter. Guide her as to what to say, what not to say, what to do and what not to do. Be her wisdom. Graciously protect her daughter and we ask that Your Holy Spirit guide her into Truth. Open her ears, eyes and mind to hear You and Your will for her. Bless this mother who loves her daughter so much she wants what is best for her. In the precious name of Your Beloved Son, Jesus our Lord. Amen.

Loving God,

We thank you for your many blessings in our lives, and today we especially thank you for the awareness and ability to evaluate our own behavior and adjust where needed to help others on their journey of faith.

We lift up our intentions for Irish Girl 68 and ask you to bless her with strength, courage, and perseverance in the face of grave difficulty and challenges in her relationship with her dear daughter. Lord, we know you love us and what us to follow the path you have chosen for us - we ask that you send your comforting and consoling Holy Spirit to guide Irish Girl 68, and to bless her with the ability to listen to you in prayer. Please also influence and guide dear daughter, and help her to make better choices and hear your call to her as well, dear Lord. We are often very anxious and worried about how things are going in our lives, and it is natural and very human to do so. Please help this dear mother to know that this period in her daughter’s life will pass, although the journey will be rocky and very challenging, and help her to maintain a relationship and influence that assists dear daughter in her personal growth and ability to make decisions that are life giving and positive in her life.

Please bless this family and hear the persistent prayers for them now, dear Lord. Please help dear mother to hang in there despite the trials and great disappointment she feels at this time.

We pray in the name of your beloved son Jesus, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God for ever and ever.

Amen.
 
Dear Sister,
Every thing is possible for God if only let him do his will in our lives & I am sure he will work wonders in your lives if you believe.

MATHEW:18 - 30 says where two or three gather in my name I am among you.

James:5 - 16 says the prayers of a righteous man is powerful & effective.

You did the right thing by calling for prayers for what is impossible for man is possible for GOD & when you ask in faith believe you have already received it.

15th of August is the feast of the Assumption of Mother Mary we do celebrate it in India please join us in Prayer with us:And she said unto the servants do what he tells you to do it was at the wedding feast of Canna where Jesus turned water into wine.

Peace be with you & your family
