Long story, but 2 people I love (and their families) need prayer.
First, my older sis who turned her back on the Lord years ago is in a bad situation with her husband and wants to spend Easter with my Mom and be away from her family. I told my Mom I think the Lord is trying to get my sis's attention and now is a great opportunity to see if she will at least be open to pray with my Mom on Easter and ask for The Lord to help her. She has said to my Mom in recent days that she felt God was punishing her....she has looked into many different religions over the years and I believe she does practice some wicca but I am not certain as we haven't spoken for a long time. I miss her so very, very much and am so very saddened to see her hurting and see her angry again at her circumstances but I think the very best thing for me to do is pray for God to help her and have her heart open back up to Our Lord and ask others to keep her in prayer! I want my sister to be with The Lord when the time comes.
Second, a dear friend whom I have known for 30 years still is not saved. He has not been feeling well the last few months and I have prayed for The Lord to open his heart to the gospel all of these years. His children are saved but he needs proof that God is real. I don't know what else to say to him anymore. I have prayed over the years and asked God to put Christians in his path so he would hear The Word of The Lord but ....I am not sure what else to do. Please pray for his heart too to be open to The Lord.....and that somehow some Christian will be able to reach him in time.
thank you all so much!!!!!!
