I have never asked for a prayer online. But if you would be willing my wife and I need some help from on high right now.

I don't want to post my big sob story on a public message board. But this situation could really go bad for us and I am not sure how to proceed and my I just keep borrowing trouble worrying about it.

If you would be willing to say a quick prayer for Brandon and Trisha and our kids for peace, protection, and clarity of mind to know His will it would be very much appreciated.

Thank you.

Lord, I ask that you take this family under your almighty wings. Lord, I ask that you lift them up and protect from all that may do them any harm. Lord, I also ask for you to give them peace and allow them the strength to face each battle that may lie ahead of them and I also ask that you stay by their side. In the name of Jesus, our all mighty savior, Amen.

Done- I have also prayed for clarity in my own life and left it all to our Savior, he somehow fixes it, not always in the way I figured. Just ask.

I want to thank you all so very much for the added prayer. I avoided the internet, TV, radio, etc all weekend and just spent it with my family. I had an amazing sense of calm all weekend, every time my troubles came into my head it was almost immediately replaced with the thought of it will be taken care of and replaced with just an overwhelming feeling of peace. It was very humbling.

We had some neat stuff happen this weekend that would not have happened any other way except for His will. I don't really count them as coincidence personally. I was reunited with a long time estranged brother who called me Sunday afternoon out of the blue to invite my family to his house for a Superbowl party. I don't care for sports, but I went because he invited me and I felt I should. While I was there I met an acquaintance of his who has offered me something we desperately needed but could not find/afford, and he agreed to do it for trade work. By the time I left my brothers house we had set up a date for my brother and I to go to lunch and we parted as brothers instead of strangers.

Many more things happened over this weekend that I just feel are too personal to post on an open board, but my faith has been bolstered, and the knowledge that if I just keep dealing honestly with people then I am doing what I am supposed to be doing and he will make things work out ok. I was also sharply reminded that these are issues of man, and in the end they are of no consequence, but how I react to them is what is more important.

I have not been able to lay it on him like that in a very long time and my mind is much more clear today.

I was humbled today when I logged on and saw so many of you took the time to blindly offer prayer for us. It was noticed and I thank you all so much. My wife felt the same way.

Brandon,
We didn't blindly offer prayer for you all. You asked for something very specific, and that's what we prayed for.




... say a quick prayer for Brandon and Trisha and our kids for peace, protection, and clarity of mind to know His will ...



As important as it was to you and your family, it was also a reminder to us of what we should be praying for in our lives.
Thank you for blessing us with that!

It is very much appreciated. I mean it to be sincere, I am not a word smith at all and wish I could express myself in words better. I cannot tell you all how much it was felt and how much it has affected us.

The problem still exists, but we now know it will be ok in the end even if it goes very badly. That is a wonderful comfort to have.

I am glad you all are better off, I found this late, I went through an event as well and asked for prayer here, it worked and like you my faith has been bolstered. Reading this makes it more so.

The Lord is great, I do believe that our issues are His will, not to make our life miserable but to test us and our faith. To see how we react to our issues, those that raise their prayer to Him will find peace.

Anyway, I am glad things are working out for you, keep the faith. God Bless.
