Hey everyone, I'm going to try and talk to my youth leader again about my SI, the first time didn't go so well and she almost ended up avoiding me but in talking to other people we realised that if you have a problem you have to bring it up yourself because she wont incase you dont want to talk about it, its silly i know. So yeah if anyone has any handy hints that would be really great and prayer is always nice :) She knows that I do it and that its been going on about 5 1/2 years but that is about it. hope everyone's new years are going well! also woah salanna that is so great well done, proud of you :D

okay, guys, I have a prayer request. this one is really serious. i can't even put words to how much my heart is breaking over this situation, how much pain i feel. if you never pray for anything else i mention on this thread, PLEASE pray for this one.
i don't know if any of you remember me talking about Kirstie. she was my youth pastor's wife, and she completely saved my life. she introduced me to God and made me realize that there was hope, even for me. she's done so much--not only for me, but for SO many other people. she's had the kind of life that sounds like it's straight out of a bad movie--it doesn't even seem possible. guys, i can't get across how much i love this woman and her family. she's been like a mother to me. and now, she needs prayer from everyone who can give it. she's had a lot of health issues in her life (she's in her early 30's), and she was put on medication for chronic pain quite a while back. maybe we should have seen it coming, but recently her husband had to tell her she can't stay with him and their daughter Mikaela anymore--she's been abusing the drugs, and she's too dangerous. She's not in rehab--she's back living with her mother and stepfather, which will probably make things worse by bringing back childhood memories of her father...please, pray for her and her family. Especially her daughter. One of the things Kirstie and I bonded over was the fact that we come from families ruined by drugs--and I know that she'll be heartbroken when she realizes that she's hurt her daughter in a way she wanted to avoid at all costs. And Mikaela...I'm doing what I can, going to visit her, taking her to lunch...she's about my sister's age, around 10, so I'm trying to get the two of them together and do things with them. I can't express how much it hurts to watch Mikaela. She used to be full of joy, always smiling...now she's quiet and withdrawn, and my heart breaks every time i think about it. I would give anything to prevent her from being hurt like this, having been through it myself...I want to call Kirstie and yell, ask her if she can see what she's doing to her daughter. I just want everything to be OK again. It's not supposed to be like this. Please pray for this family. Back when Kirstie was being a mother to me when mine wasn't doing her job, I NEVER imagined one day I would be doing the same for her daughter. I can't explain how wrong and devastating this is. People I love more than my own life are hurting, and hurting each other, and...Oh, God, make it stop. This world doesn't need any more pain.

Then wear the gold hat, if that will move her;
If you can bounce high, bounce for her too,
Till she cry "Lover, gold-hatted, high-bouncing lover,
I must have you!"

The school I want to be at starts on the 12th, but I'm not sure if I've made it in seeing as they haven't sent me anything in regards to my admission status and the deadline for everything to be in is monday. =/ Then again, I might go IP for a bit so who knows. I'm for sure going summer semester though, which is in may sometime.
