Guys. I am a superwoman. I manage everything. Always the strong one. But now I am just empty. My part time foster kid has been with me this week, and it has been an ordeal. I have visitors from Germany, and they are great, but I have difficulties being my old smiling self. I should go on a trip next week, but I am not sure. My travel companion has got into New Age, and told me she should do some rituals when it was full moon. I have got accepted to studies at the University, but do I really have the strength to do so?

So I would really appreciate if you could pray for me being able to love the people God places in my life, pray for my summer break and my travelling, my son, my fosterkid, and just pray that I can just leave everything to God.
 
A pray peace, and that things go the way God wants them to go, in Jesus name, amen!
 
sounds like your biggest 'challenge' will be in 'just being yourself', and then,
let Jesus help you with the rest...:):)
 
Love is a beautiful thing, yet difficult to give without reason. However, our Creator loved us in sin and died on the cross,to make sure that our sins are forgiven. So I urge you to accept Jesus as your Lord and Saviour. And automatically you will love everything around you.

Maybe a trip would be nice, and maybe it would be helpful if you pursue your studies at the University.

I have. This is not a question of faith. Just that I am exhausted.
 
Father God, pour your love upon to toinena, so that she loves other and blesses their lives. Lord we agree with this prayer, please bless toinena, in all these things, yes Lord. In Jesus Holy name, Amen!

Can you do a staycation? (Stay home, but either eat meals outside or have them delivered, no housework, and generally either veg out and read some good fiction of places you'd like to go and people you would like to spend time with.)

That sounds wonderful. I would have time for that two days om August. Otherwise I am not able to.
 
A small update. And a new prayer request. The girl was taken from her other foster family and placed in an institution today. She doesn't want any contact with me or them
Please pray for her. She surely needs Jesus and to get to know our Heavenly Father. She is turning away from everyone that cares for her. Seeking love and attention from men. I am worried about her.

Praying for you. Remember, you don't have to be strong enough...

2Co 12:9 — 2Co 12:10
But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me. For the sake of Christ, then, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities. For when I am weak, then I am strong.
