Please pray for me. I've recently had a couple of legal charges pressed against me, and I'm facing imminent divorce from my husband of nine years. We have two young daughters. I cannot lose them. I'm a stay-at-home-mom, so they are my life.

I also struggle with alcohol abuse, and severe depression, anxiety, OCD, and self-harm/suicidal tendencies.

I'm on my own right now--kicked out of the house, can't contact my family, living in a hotel, nowhere to go, no one to spend Thanksgiving with.

Please pray that I won't face further legal troubles, no jail time. Please pray for healing. That I may be healed from my addictions, that my husband will take me back. Pray that God will soften my husband's heart to me. That our family won't be broken up. Please pray for reconciliation and healing. Thank you.

Father God, our sister Mahoney is in need of deliverance and restoration! Open her eyes to the Truth of Your power and grace and miraculous love!! Let her know freedom from addiction in her mind, let her visualize the reality of walking in perfect peace in You. We pray over her family and ask that You be glorified in this situation and make them whole again. Make them NEW, Lord!! May this family be a testimony to Your power of love and let in it begin right now in Mahoney's healing of her mind. Give her new thoughts, pure thoughts, lovely thoughts, joyful thoughts! Let no harm and no conviction come, may she have Your mercy rain on her and let her walk in good health and forgiveness and joy in the Holy Spirit! In Your holy name we pray, Jesus our Lord!!! Amen!!! \:D/

Hi Mahoney

I'm very sorry to hear of all your troubles - sometimes when it rains it just really pours!

I'm really not much for advice and anything i say will sound really feeble but i'm keeping u in my prayers;

"Be strong and of a good courage for I the Lord thy God art with thee whithersoever thou goest."

Hi Mahoney again

A small thing perhaps - but i hope u can get out for a walk sometimes for a coffee perhaps even if it's by yourself.

I know myself if i spend too much time alone i can get rather inward looking and down on myself and my thinking can go down some rather dark corridors. And I find just getting out a bit can break that pattern and relieve the bad feelings a bit - i'll go to the local Starbucks read a paper treat myself with a coffee - perhaps a chocolate chip cookie.

Sorry if all this sounds lame..I know your carrying a pretty heavy load. Another one i like is;

"Trust in the Lord with all thy heart and lean not unto thine own understanding."
