Prayer Requests

My future. My family. My friend. Myself.



1. it has always been unclear but each day God has been revealing to me what path I should take. Even then, I still don't know what I want to be when I grow up. I don't know what I will do with music. I don't even know if I should pursue music. my true passion. During my first year at APU, it went away. the spark disappeared throughout all the stress and sometimes laziness. I didn't know if I wanted to be a vocal teacher and have my own music studio. I just knew that I wanted to be in music. I wanted music to be my career. one of the possibilities was performing and traveling as a back up singer for someone famous. I don't want the spotlight because I know I'm not good enough to perform on my own. I was surrounded by people and friends who are so set with what they're going to do. some even had back up plans. some were even in my shoes. by the end of the year, I knew I didn't want to continue being a vocal performance major. I wanted to be a commercial music major.



In two weeks, everything is about to change

Please pray for my future. pray for the upcoming school year. that I'll know what to do and just go for it.



2. I think I've been at home for way too long. I'm getting sick of rules and living with my parents who feed me too much. I'm not even kidding. Being here with my dad and my stepmom is extremely helping my diet. Back home I would be eating out with my mom and brother at least 2 to 3 times a week. Anyways, enough digressing. I regret not living on campus for my very first year in college. I missed out on a lot of things. I still had restrictions since I still live with my parents. (actually I'm still going to have rules and regulations even when I move out!) My mom is overprotective and still doesn't trust me around boys. She forgets that I'm no longer 14 chasing boys. My parents, especially my mom, will have a harder time letting me go the longer I stay home with her.

But come to think of it, I can't stand on my own 2 feet yet. I still depend on my parents and the reason why I'm still dependent is that my mom won't let me get a job other than working in her dental office. Again, not even letting me get my own job elsewhere which is not helping me earn my own income.

One last note... I don't think I'll ever start dating any time soon. As i have said before, my mom doesn't trust me around boys. She worries when I'm the only girl with no one to watch over me. I understand that she's being a 'mom' but I'm not out and about fooling around with guys and partying, getting drunk, foolishly having sex, or whatnot. I was never in that scene thank God. I was always a good kid. and my parents have raised me well. I wish they could see that and fully know that I'm perfectly capable of making the right choices. I guess I don't mind because I'm not ready for any serious relationship until I can be little more independent financially and emotionally. I'll give it a few more years until that certain someone decides to pursue me and ask my parents permission and they'll give their blessings. I want a relationship where my parents will know that I'm dating and they'll know who I'm dating.

Please pray for my family. please pray that I will earn their trust and support. That they will continue to shower their blessings and love for me. to trust God and not rely on their own understanding. Pray for growth in their walk with God and desire to be like God.

3. this person has been a friend of mine for about 3 years now. it was a rough start at first but as time went on, it was better between us. I'm glad he's in better company now and away from the party and drinking scene. I know in the past I've been praying for him but it wasn't constant. and now I hear that you've been listening to other gods and maybe even Satan. it's really sad when I think about it. I even cried over you... but this time it's the fact that you don't believe in the same God anymore. Where has your heart gone? you're still you... but it's only a facade. it breaks my heart. I have complete faith in God that you'll turn yourself around and realize you went atray from God again. You're my friend therefore I care about you. I know we'll be friends for a long time. You're better than this. You're smarter than this. You're stronger than this. You have accomplished so much-- well I believe you accomplished so much and I just hope and pray that this is just a bump in the road.

Please pray for my friend. I never knew a person could believe in other things that aren't the truth. it isn't God's word. please pray that he'll come back to senses and remain in God. pray that the words that come out of his mouth is pleasing in His sight.

4. laziness has got the best of me during this summer. but I'm happy it's not everyday. I'm so thankful for friends who have influenced me and who are fun to be with and just make me smile. I want to be better in my walk with God. I want to stand up for myself and practice what I preach. I want to not just be a hearer but a doer. God didn't raise me up to be mediocre. Because God can do the impossible and I need to strive to be better than i can be. I want to encourage others and not put anyone down. I want to inspire. I want to do things that will make me proud of myself and most importantly please God.

Please pray for me. about anything. friendships. my spiritual walk with God. sharing Jesus with others. relationship with parents. strength. equipping myself with the word. making the right choices. my heart. my mind. my voice... anything that's on your heart. pray for everything in my life if you will!

and if there's anything on your heart that you would like me to pray for, don't hesitate to leave a comment... or just acknowledge that you would like prayer.
