January 10, 2019 at 12:24 pmI did not grow up with my Dad and I have missed him every day of my life. My longing for him has drawn me closer and closer to the Lord. Last night I had the most wonderful dream about my Dad, returning to the family, just being around, talking, hugging, laughing. I was delighted to talk with him and see how much my nephew resembles him. Wherever he is, Lord, I trust him to Your care and keeping. Continue to be my all-sufficient Provider Daddy.

January 10, 2019 at 2:13 pmDear Lord may the heart of this father yearn for a relationship with his child. No matter what has held him back in the past may this be overshadowed by his desire. Thank you you Lord that you are our Heavenly Father and love us abundantly. In the loving name of our Lord Jesus Christ we pray.

January 10, 2019 at 2:30 pmAmen Brother Frank.
The verse I thought about as i read this was John 14:27:
Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.
Dear Lord Jesus,
Please surround gsimonin with your everlasting peace. Lord please bless his walk with you with wonders that amaze him. That he would know that in your care and with you all things are possible. May your love surround him and uplift him like a river flowing over his soul. Be his place of safety and stronghold and mighty tower. I pray your words would reach his ears and in your word he would find continual joy and gladness. Thank you Lord that you are the closest friend we have, you never leave us but help us, you work all things for the God, you turn around what is meant for evil with blessing and love.

January 10, 2019 at 4:36 pmAww. So glad I opened up this request. My heart hurts with yours. I don’t know what it’s like to be without my Dad, but my Mom does. Her Dad left her and her Mom when she was about 2 or 3. She’s showed me the few pics she has of him and them together. He was a tall, slim, good looking man. My Mom was a tiny, cute little girl in a pretty dress. It breaks my heart to see that little girl and know that she grew up missing her Daddy- after all these years I still sense the pain and feelings of abandonment and more. That makes me sad. Whenever I would get mad at my Dad, my Mom would tell me how good he was and to be thankful for him. I recognize the BIG blessing my Dad is and am SO thankful for him. He has always been there for me even when I was mean, hateful and ungrateful. There has never been a thing he wouldn’t do for me. I know my Mom sees that and it hurts her because of her pain. God heals, I know. Sometimes we heal and the sore spot is totally gone. Other times I believe, we can heal, but there’s still a sore spot. I don’t think it’s by accident. I think it’s because God allows it and wants to use it for good reasons. I believe there are many reasons. I trust Him with all of those reasons for my sister, here, for my Mom, for myself and for anyone who feels the pain of loss. To God be the glory! I can tell you, sister, I hear you. I’m so happy you shared this and I’m happy that I can say that although I don’t know your specific pain and loss, I do know suffering, pain and loss. It sucks, but through the years I’ve seen God use it to make me more pliable, more trusting and more loving. When the enemy tries to scheme and use it to make me bitter and hard hearted, I simply tell him no and to leave. He leaves. YES!! Thank You Jesus! But just like with Jesus, he comes back at what he sees as a more opportune time. Oh man. Gotta keep on our armor and use our weapons daily! I lift you up, sister. You are covered and protected by God Almighty! He is your loving Father. He is your Daddy. You’re His girl! He loves You a TON!!! Enjoy Him. Cast your cares on Him. Bless you. I love you. Peace to you! Holy Spirit, fill my sister and comfort her. Remove her pain and should You choose not to remove it completely, then keep it low as You use it for Your glory, her good and the good of MANY. I trust You. Have Your way. In Jesus’ Name I pray. Amen. xo

January 10, 2019 at 5:51 pmAbba, Father. Thank You for being our Father when our earthly Father’s may not measure up. Thank You for dreams and forgiveness. Thank You that we can enjoy our families in those dreams and still LOVE. Thank You for earthly daddies, too Lord. How we need them and miss them. Father, I pray a special touch on gsmonin and her daddy today, that they may find each other one day. Oh Lord we yearn for You. Thank You Lord for Your Peace that You promise in Your Word. Help me to meditate on that verse today . . . and contemplate how much You love each of us. Thank You for the prayer warriors above who always fill my heart with delight in their prayers. They do bring me great peace because they have Your Spirit.

January 11, 2019 at 10:00 amThank you all for your prayers. My Dad disappeared about 40 years ago and there has never been any contact from him since then. My uncles, my brother and myself have searched for him with no success. As a believer, God has given my heart peace that He knows where my Dad is and that I can trust Him. Today my Dad would be 96 years old and I am fairly certain that he has died. I can say all this and yet the longing of my heart is for him. I was blessed to be in relationship with his parents, brothers and sisters for many years. Now they have all passed into eternity. Today I am missing them also. But – Lord, I thank You for the connection I had with my extended family, for their love and care for me, for their humor and smiles. Thank You for that substitution in my life. Bless all their children, my cousins, as we all find a new way to be family without the Aunts and Uncles.
