Dear forum people,
I don't want to give details, but I've had an extremely, basically impossible (in the earthly sense) situation that is really stressful and hurting me and family members and a significant other very much. There seems no real way out of this one way or another - like not being able to move, being tied up while desperately needing to escape. This is taking a huge toll mentally and even physically (for example, causing stress-induced fainting in one family member who has low blood sugar but has never fainted before this impossible situation began...the stress may have just pushed her over the line to cause the fainting plus she is not eating).

Thank you for any prayers you can find time and energy to offer! God bless all of you. I pray the Jesus Prayer as often as I can as well as praying to my patron saints, guardian angel, other saints, especially to the Mother of God...

Dear Lord you make a way when there seems to be no way. Jesus please make it so. Thank you!

Prayers that the Lord give peace to our brother and his family and provide the means and wisdom to resolve this stressful set of circumstances for nothing is impossible with Him.

Thank you all for so many heartfelt prayers! Tears are running down my face and they are tears of relief due to your prayers! Many thanks and may God hear your own prayers for your generosity to me. -Jason

Jason,

I will continue to have you in my unworthy prayers. Stay strong and keep praying--don't worry, God will not abandon you if you abandon yourself to His protection, and especially His most holy Mother's care...

May God bless you and your family.

In Christ,
Alice

Thank you so much, Pani Rose and Alice and anyone else who prayed. It's not like a critical health situation or someone dying, but emotionally this is pushing me to my limits so I really, really appreciate these prayers! -Jason
