Dear readers, Catholic Online was de-platformed by Shopify for our pro-life beliefs. They shut down our Catholic Online, Catholic Online School, Prayer Candles, and Catholic Online Learning Resources essential faith tools serving over 1.4 million students and millions of families worldwide. Our founders, now in their 70's, just gave their entire life savings to protect this mission. But fewer than 2% of readers donate. If everyone gave just $5, the cost of a coffee, we could rebuild stronger and keep Catholic education free for all. Stand with us in faith. Thank you.

    Amanda, 4/21/2017
  2. I’m asking for your prayers and support for God to save my husband, put a stop to our current divorce proceedings and restore my marriage / family.

    Dear God,
    I humbly come to you asking first for your forgiveness for my own actions and behaviors. I thank you for leading me to acknowledge my own offenses and for given me the strength to overcome and make the changes necessary to provide a loving Christian home for my children. I ask for your continued guidance, wisdom and grace.
    Father, I come to you on behalf of my husband. Lord I ask that you please save him from his destructive behavior and harden heart. God I also ask that you please stop those who are deceiving my husband – his friends who do not abide by your will, the persuasive adulteress and all others who have lead him astray. I lay him at your feet dear God. I know only you can soften his heart. Only you can replace his misplaced anger and resentment and fill it with your love and goodness. He has lost his way and let evil blind him to your teachings. Please open his eyes and let his ears hear your truths. He has fallen but please do not let him stay lost to you. His heart is righteous but his mind has been deceived. You can restore his faith, his values and morals. I pray he will once again acknowledge You and that You won’t let anyone take him out of Your hands. I pray you do so soon before any other relationships are hurt or severed and so we can begin the healing process as a family. My children’s hearts are aching for their father.
    God, my kids are especially in need of your strength and comfort. They have lost their father, their hero, their mentor, their guide. My son especially feels misplaced and abandoned. He is very loyal and faithful follower of yours but is very torn. Both of my children have always been extremely strong in their walk with you. But the change in their father and the pending divorce has begun to put cracks in the armor that have always been so proud to wear.
    Heavenly Father you taught me that marriage was forever. Jesus clearly stated your plan for marriage in book of Matthew (19:4-6): “And He answered and said to them, “Have you not read that He who made them at the beginning “made them male and female,’ and said, “For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh’? So then, they are no longer two but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let not man separate.” Then in Malachi (2:16) Jesus tells us just as clearly how you feel about divorce and separation: “For I hate divorce,” says the LORD, the God of Israel, “and him who covers his garment with wrong,” says the LORD of hosts. “So take heed to your spirit, that you do not deal treacherously.”” I can’t believe after reading these passages of Scripture that you would want anything other than restoration for my marriage.
    Because of this I must have faith that you will do what is necessary to bring my husband back to us. I pray Dear God that you restore my relationship with my husband; restore our love; the vows we made to each other; reestablish our trust and faith. I pray that we are reconciled to each other and to You through Jesus, by His blood shed on the cross. God please reunite our family so we may live together in harmony with sympathy, compassion and humility. I pray that we never forget your teachings and we keep your commands on our hearts.
    I believe based on your promises that you will answer my prayers – "And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it." John 14:13-14. Please send the Holy Spirit and your army of Angels to guide, protect and rescue my husband and to save my marriage. I ask all of these things in the name of Jesus Christ. Thank you, Heavenly Father. In the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, Amen.

    Thank you for praying for my family!!

    Carissa, 4/21/2017
  5. My Daughter, Amanda is in need of prayers. She has been getting the
    run around from Drs here in Illinois since before Christmas. She's been
    treated for things she didn't have and a lot of tests. But not the one that
    she needs. She needs a biopsy. Everything else has been ruled out. She
    may have lymphoma. Everything is pointing to it. She has seen 2 ENTs
    here and a few other Drs. The DRs that can't perform the biopsy all feel
    that she needs one, but only ENTs can do it. The 2 ENTs here are worthless.
    They keep saying they want her to wait another 3 months. One ENT didn't
    even examine her or anything. Our primary Dr has referred her to the ENTs
    because she feels that Amanda needs a biopsy. Our Gynecologist is very
    concerned and said that she needs a biopsy. But the one's that can do the
    biopsy keep playing with her life.
    So, our primary Dr put in a order for her to be seen by a ENT in Madison
    Wisconsin. She was suppose to bring the discs from her CT-Scan that
    she had in Jan. We took her to Madison and the ENT was/is very concerned.
    But the Drs here sent the wrong CT-Scan discs.So he really couldn't do all
    that he wanted that day. He finally got the Dr here to send him the right CT-Scan
    discs. she had here in Rockford in January. He said the exam he gave her was
    significantly different than what the CT-Scan shows and the she needs
    to get an updated CT-Scan. So, now she will be going back to Madison on
    May 4th to get a CT-Scan and labs done there. And she see's the ENT right after,
    the same day. Then he will decide if and when to do a biopsy. The biopsy is a
    risky surgery where it will be performed. Her lymph nodes on her neck are very
    swelled. So a special Neck Surgeon will have to do it. They will have to make a
    good size cut and go in deep. But that's the only way we can find out if it's lymphoma.
    Amanda is terrified of the biopsy and the results We both are. This can't be put off
    any longer. Now our primary Dr, our gynecologist and this ENT feel that it could be
    lymphoma. If it is cancer I pray that it's not to late at doing the biopsy.
    So she really needs prayers. I pray to God that it's not cancer. I can't imagine what
    Amanda's going through, I can barely keep it together myself. The thought of my
    Daughter might have cancer is killing me. I lost my Mom from cancer. Please pray
    for my Daughter. Thank you!!

  11. Dear Lord, Please receive my son, CJ, at the Foot of Your Cross. I place Your Blood that was spilled on the ground on my lips, that it may not go wasted but in stead purify my lips as my prayers float up to the Throne of Our Father. I thank you for the healing he received when he was released from the "stronghold" on his heart. Please continue the healing to full restoration of his hope and trust in You, and bring him to the fullness of Your Love. Please, Lord, he still has desires of joining the military. If it is not within Your Will for him, please remove these desires and replace them with Your Will on his life; that he may fulfill Your purpose for him. Lord, I am afraid. I do not want to see him go off to this futile war of evils. I place this prayer at the Foot of Your Cross, that it may be cleansed and purified before it reaches the Throne of Our Father; that the Father may return them renewed and restored. Please, Lord, bring CJ the desire to become an FBI BAU agent to fruition. Bring him the tools, resources, and perseverance to bring his desires to completion, if it is Your Will, Lord. Replace his desire for the military with his desire to serve in the FBI. Lord, if it is Your Will. I place CJ in Your merciful and loving arms. Bring him peace, joy, and prosperity. Help him to live a life dedicated to fulfillment of his purpose and commitment to his faith. In Your Precious and Holy Name. Blessed Mother, wrap him in your mantle and be with him always throughout his journey. Amen!!!

    Cassandra, 4/21/2017

Help him overturn Obama's legacy of bad policy and legislation. Lord, our country needs a miracle. Bring the light of God into this new administration. May the Blessed Mother wrap her mantle around everyone in government, congress, and administration. Bring us peace, joy, and prosperity. In Your Precious and Holy Name. Amen!!!
