   Prayer Requests:
        Pray for me
 
I'm asking for prayer in several areas. First I feel a little background would be helpful. I have been married to a Mexican man for 8 years who speaks spanish and english. I don't speak enough spanish for conversations etc. I've tried teaching myself on and off for the past 10 years that I've been with him, but I get bored, frustrated or too busy to study. We attend a spanish speaking church (I was baptized in this church) that tries to go bilingual, but they don't provide any english bible studies and basically I am the only one that they speak english for during the sermon so that I can get fed. The worship is approximately 98 % spanish etc., so you can see why I need prayer in this area. They are investing in a $1000 interpreting headsets system which will help but I still need to learn spanish so I can fellowship with more believers etc. So my first request is that I receive a deep desire to study spanish as a second language. I also need prayer for the time and resources (money) and memory to absorb the language quickly. My second request is for more energy, I'm 6 ½ months pregnant and have 2 other children, plus a full time job. I feel zapped of my energy and need prayer for God's supernatural energy/strength to make it through each day. My third request is for my husband to find a night job that he will enjoy, the hours will fit our schedules and that will supplement my income (he is watching the kids during the day). My fourth request is that I seem to have distanced myself from God and am having a hard time getting myself to pray even 15 minutes or so a day. I feel this all started in Feb/March of this year when I got pregnant, however I've never really kept a "daily" time with God on a regular basis but have always known that I need it and therefore desire it. However my desire is not as strong as my lazy flesh. I need prayer in the area of being consistent in daily prayer and bible studying so that I can get a closer more intimate relationship with God. Also that I get back the fire I once had for serving and seeking the Lord. Thank you so much for all your prayers I believe God will hear each one and look forward to some breakthroughs.

Lord,
Give this Lady wisdom, favor and fill her with your energy to perform your will. God bless her family and her husband looking for a job. Allow her to get fed with your word, help her to free up time to eat spiritual bread. God bless this family!

Lord, please fortify this Lady's mind, body and spirit to be able to accept your love, grace and wisdom and handle the tasks before her. Please bless her family's finances so they can care for their children. Please help dissipate the language barrier and help her to prioritize the uses of her energy. Please touch her husband and children and have them help her as she lovingly helps them. In Jesus' name, Amen.

Dear Ilovecats,
Please don't stress too much over the Spanish in church. Read your english bible and follow along, worship in english, I'm sure it is not a major problem. It would be great to learn Spanish as a second language but do not expect too much from yourself. God really does not care whether you worship in english or spanish. Learn simple words first, so that you can communicate a little with the congregation but please take it slowly.

Lord Jesus, I bring this lovely lady to you and pray Father that your love in her would transcend any language barrier that exists in her church. Father, I pray that you would empower her and strengthen her at this time and provide that night job for her husband. Give her the desires of her heart. Father as the Holy Spirit is prompting her, I pray that she would wait on you and be refreshed daily.

Bless her and her husband and children abundantly I pray.

Thank you Lord Jesus and we praise you and bless you.
