Hi, Had you may of followed my history of prayer for my husband. On the 2nd of August 2am my husband Rod lost his mother, he was with her at hospital and it was him and his mother. It's a blessing because she was suffering with brain issues and deteriorate. My husband isn't well now, and his cancer is worse, I'm terrified he will pass also. But a bungalow with the council has come up, near my family. My mind is everywhere because I know my husband hates it here. He said that the advertising bungalow looks OK. But I'm hoping the offer it to us. He's just not settling here and he said its not the right place for me where we live. I'm praying that God stays with us. It's time to move from here I feel it, but it all depends on the bungalow and Rods health. Please pray we get peace for Rod eventually, he will settle if he knows I'm happy living in a decent area. It's a tough time.

So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. Isaiah 41:10

Heavenly father, I pray that you bring healing and restoration to Rod. That life and wellness will grow in fullness until it overflows. Jesus, with just one touch from your almighty, creative hand, you have healed the sick and raised the dead. How amazing is your Lordship over all the earth. How powerful is your redeeming love. How great is your sacrifice to go before us and bring forgiveness and hope. Lord, I also ask that you lift up my sister and give her strength and give her comfort in these difficult times. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen

Dear Happyface,



I certainly will be praying for you, your husband, and the right place for you to move. I will also pray for his peace. I am glad that he got to be with his mother before her death. That has to be a comfort. You have dealt with that, now you have more on your plate to deal with and I will be praying about that too. You also said that you hoped God would stay with you. That is one thing that I can promise you will happen because God Himself said He never leave you nor forsake you. Hang on to that my friend. You can take it to the bank. I know it is true from experience. I had a critically ill baby, lost my dad to a serious illness, and lost my husband to a work accident all within the space of a few months. God is the only reason I am here today, so I know that you can depend on Him. In fact I advise you to cling to Him with all of your might. I'm so glad to have found your post. I will follow you and keep up to date with your prayer requests.

Prayer being said for the bungalow to be offered to you. I know how important this is you as where your currently living is not a good environment. I have prayed for God to soften your husband's heart and does not try to dissuade you about the move. He's got to realize that if he should die you will be alone in these hostile living conditions.

It's hard having bad feet and emotions. I see my heart is in the right place for others. Prayers for my dad he's had a knee operation, also praying for my husbands brothers wife she just lost her mother. It's all happening. Rods determined nature today to get our garden lawn cut is good, but it's to much for him. That's why I'm crying inside because I know he's tired and in pain. We need something smaller it's a big lawn here.

My husband is poorly and I have been so unhappy. The woman next door has all her family around they just multiply all the time. Making noise etc. And the house a joined to us is a open house for men that drink until the early hours, we are always scared if they have parties drugs drink. That's why we need a quiet area for my husband especially. He said he wouldn't settle if he died and I lived here. That's why we need to find a rented place for normality. I have never relied on God so much.

Heavenly Father we thank that through your son Jesus we can have boldness to enter your throne room to receive mercy and grace in a time of need. Please help us to remember that every day is that time of need and to keep close to you. Please work in Happy and Rods favor in your great love and mercy and bring peace and joy to their lives. We ask this out of the great riches of grace that are in Christ Jesus our Lord, Amen.

I have come 5th in the queue position for the bungalow, but there's still a little hope, so pray further for a phone call. My husband got mad with a council worker on the park, he told Rod to put our dog on a lead, but there's small notices you don't always see about this. Rod went mad because he was really angry. People let there dogs off in the park area to play. Sometimes our live is full of rules.

Lord I simply ask for your favour with Rod my husband. Lord I know he's got worse even though he's driving. He's complaining of his heart beating fast and getting tired easily. I feel he's declined since his mother died. Lord I ask you to guide me as his wife to overcome any problems with anything.

Hello Happy,

Please let me say a prayer for you and Rod: Dear Father please let both Rod and Happy be very aware of your presence. Let their confidence be in you. Help Happy to be the kind of wife she wants to be for Rod and give her wisdom and strength. Please give them both moments of joy, even while they go through this pain. Thank you Lord that in your wisdom and grace, you put people together as husband and wife and give them the privilege of walking through the seasons of life together. How beautiful are the works of your hands! Thank you for Happy's heart to follow you and be there fully for her husband. In Jesus name and power--Amen

Happy, I love you already. Thank you for being my new friend. It is an honor.

To my friend, You are a wonderful woman, and the kind I love, so kind and caring in today's world. Although I've ranted about Rods temper tantrums or anxiety about things, I understand him more than anyone. He's been through the lot, strokes, cancer, etc, he's a fighter. But throughout everything I try to keep my constant Love in my heart for him. Yes I realise God is with us. I sang one day at a time to Rods mam before she went in hospital, I remember that day, she actually smiled. Love is a beautiful thing and we must try not to let anger spoil us. I see Rods face as he talks about different characters of the world, it saddens and angers him. But I know it's just a passing thing. Thanks again for being such a kind person and showing me that there are special humans in the world. X

I know it might be hard to focus on the positive things in life during this time... I'm not going to pretend to understand how difficult it is during this time for you and Rod- but you do have my sincere and heartfelt prayers and love.

Almighty God, we humbly come before Your holy throne of grace, asking for resolution and peace for Happyface and Rod as they go through yet another chapter in their journey. We consider all of the conflicts and trials which may befall them as trivial to You- may your love, peace, and light cover them and give them the peace they need and the joy they crave. In the powerful name of Jesus, Amen.
