Hello Kiruthika,
I hear you and all of your troubles….Now I want you to decide that you will not carry all of those things in your heart. Instead you will write them out and hand them to God in a letter. Get it our of your system because all of these thoughts and worries are weighing heavy on you.
You need to feel God’s peace..
Get all of these thoughts out of your system….Write them all out.. cry them out.. get them out…
If you don’t know how to do this – just go to this link right here:

It will help you understand how not to keep things inside as they are not good for you emotionally.

Anytime you feel anxiety or worrisome thoughts, release those thoughts and then decide that you will not worry anymore. Make that decision in your soul.This post talks about being healed from anxiety through God:

The following 2 posts will also help you in this process:

This is very important.. to work with your emotions and to trust in God no matter what.
Now I want to pray for you.
Lord God,
I come to you to lift up Kiruthika and her family in prayer. Lord, please send your angels to protect them all and open the doors for a job. We ask that Your peace come to this family in Jesus’ name. May they come to know You and have a deep relationship and love You above all things. We trust You Father to give them a vision of the Eternal and understand that the time on this Earth is very small. Help them Father
In Jesus’ name,
Amen

Blessings sister,
Eren

@Derekia – Keeping a prayer journal is a wonderful way to grow in the Lord. It’s amazing how many thoughts that are not in tune with God’s Word are thrown at us every day. If we don’t stop and make sure that we are aligned to His Truth then we can easily get derailed from the path that he wants us to walk in. I’m so glad you are keeping one.

@James – I have prayed for you and will continue to. It’s important to understand that you are under attack by our enemy: the devil. He tries to cut all of us down and destroy us. But the Lord Jesus is more powerful and beat the devil at the cross. He payed for all of our sins and all of the consequences of sin.

So now we must stand in Christ to fight the devil every day of our lives. We must pray. We must surround ourselves with strong Christians that can pray for us and help us in this battle.

Most of all we must have faith because faith gives us power to fight. If you don’t have faith, you need to get into the Word of God. You need to study and declare it so that you may have victory over sin. I’m not saying it’s easy but you can live a holy life if you draw close to the Lord. Don’t beat yourself up with condemnation as this is what the devil is doing: He is the accuser and want you to feel defeated. Don’t accept this.
Praying for you James. I’m sure you can overcome.

@Randy - I also go to the streets to evangelize. We pass out tracts and sing. I hadn’t seen that link. Nice resources. I’m glad they translated the Bible studies to Portuguese. Yes, the Lord is really working miracles here in Brazil.

Blessings ♥,
Eren

Hi Eren! I was looking for a prayer journal to keep records of my time with the Lord and other believers. I didn’t quite find one that fits my needs, but I am impressed by your apparent walk with the Lord through the Word and your desire to share this. I also noticed you are from Brazil. I was recently in South America with several hundred other Christians distributing free study Bibles. Did you happen to run into anyone volunteering for Restauradosa Biblia America do Sul? Anyway, it was an awesome time and it seems that the Lord is really moving in South America. If you are interested, the website is http://rldsa.org/EnglContact.aspx

Hello,
I have been journaling off and on all of my life. But here recently I have started a prayer journal. I love it I must admit that I have not been tracking prayers and making sure all of my thoughts align with God’s Word but I am happy that I found your site because I have gained some knowledge by reading it. It is good to see that Christians are everywhere. Thank you for the encouragement.

@Jason – Tracking the answers is very important for us to see clearly God’s hand working in our lives. We sometimes forget all that He has done for us. I wonder what the web application would be – would love to talk

@Nessa – Thanks for linking to me. That really helps spread the word about the resources. We all need help to grow spiritually and hear His voice and the more people that know about the resources, the better.

Blessings,
Eren

Hi,
I wrote an article about prayer journaling, and I spoke of you in one part. I included your prayer journal print-outs and gave you full credit, including your name and this site addie. Hopefully this is ok with you. Adorable print-outs, btw! God bless.

Eren,

Great post. I am going to start using the prayer journal. I have been wanting to track my prayer answers. Great way to build up your faith and have a thankful heart.

Gives me an idea for a web application…We should talk

Hey Tyy,
I took a look at your wife’s site and it look awesome. I have also been a stay at home mom since my kids were born. Couldn’t stand being away from them. So I completely understand what she’s going through.
Believe me- I totally understand.
If she wants to be notified when I write more things on the site then she can also sign up to our Christian newsletter on the top right.
The Lord has been pressing upon my heart to start the Embracing Home Radio Show. Mostly for encouragement and solutions to problems. I just got a new microphone for it so I’m excited.
Blessings to you and your family,
Eren

Hi Eren,

Thanks for your reply. I just showed my wife your blog and encouraged her to get involved with your site. You can check her site out at http://www.theconservativemom.com. I’m sure she would love any feedback you might have for her.

She is a stay-at-home mom and though it has been very hard on us financially, we are doing all we can to keep her home and raise our 3 kids. The toughest part has been everyone telling her to get a job and she feels beat down by this, but we are holding steadfast on this and praying that God will take care of the details.

I can already tell she will find some encouragement from your site. I have bookmarked it in her favorites.

Have a Happy and Blessed Thanksgiving!

Tyy

Hi Tyy-
I hope these articles an resources are helpful to your wife. I think that as Christians we need encouragement from each other. We need to build each other up. Our enemy is working hard each day to tear us down so we need to unite as a body to strengthen each other spiritually. This is the vision that the Lord has given me with this blog. To encourage, to uplift, to motivate each other in our walk with Him.
Thanks for your kind words,
Blessings,
Eren

Hey Eren,

I love your site! Great topic. I will be sharing your site with my wife as I feel this will be a great encouragement to her. She has her own blog on the topic of being a conservative mom and I know she could use some of the inspiration you share here.
