I would like to ask for prayer for me and my family. I recently posted a thread in the young adults forum about a difficult confrontation that I had yesterday with my dad. The difficulties continued on into today, and other than arguing I haven't talked with him at all. My mom is of course upset as well, she is often stuck in the middle in situations like this. So please pray that we would remember how to love one another as a family, and that God would heal the brokenness we all have.

I also am seeking prayer that I would have strength and confidence as I go to meet with a youth program coordinator tomorrow. My responsibilities would include being present and responsible in the apartment building and watching out for youth that are transitioning from foster care to independent living. In return I would stay rent free in an apartment there. I feel this would be an excellent opportunity for me, as it is in my area of study. (I have my Social Sciences B.A.) It may also lead to full-time employment.This is the first real opportunity I've had in 4 years, so I am very excited and hopeful, but a bit nervous as well. Prayer and support would mean so much.

Thanks to everyone who has been an encouragement already. You can read my original post here.

Omighty God I pray that you'll heal the hurt that has found its way into this family, but most of all I pray that you'll give my sister the strenth and wisdom to follow the path that you laid out for her. In the name of Jesus, amen.

Heavenly Father,

I agree in prayer with Ashlee and everyone here. Standing before You, with her family. Ashlee is asking for Love, and I know that You honor this prayer and answer it. O, that more would pray for Love (Luke chp 6). Your Word says to ask in agreement and in faith and it will be done. In doing this, LORD, perform Your Word as we stand in Christ. Let it accomplish it's purpose. Hasten Your Word to perform it LORD. Move powerfully in all of our lives. Thank You for providing all of our needs according to Your riches and glory in Christ Jesus.

In Jesus Name, Amen.

Thank you everyone for your prayers and your support, it means a lot. :)

I had my meeting today and my tour of the apartment and the building where I will be living if I get the position. It's a nice cozy little apartment and I am hoping everything works out. I have a formal interview next Thursday at 11:00 am, so please remember me in your prayers for that. :)

God bless all of you.
