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.

    My fiancé has made slight contact with but is still very cold and distant. I worry that stress is consuming him. Please pray for his issues to be solved.

    We have been together for almost 9 years and have gone through ups and downs. This break is killing me though I'm hoping that we will get back together stronger than before as we know what went wrong.

    I am puzzled and hurt by the cryptic I am sorry email. What are you sorry for? When can I see you again? When will you stop shutting me out? Can you at least tell me what I did wrong? Why are you ignoring my calls and blocking me on platforms to reach out to you?

    I love you and am willing to look past this incident as long we are communicating.

    Dearest Father in Heaven, I am really gutted me have never felt so much pain in my life. Please guide us towards reconciliation. I know he needs space but I fear losing him forever. Father, I am here before you at my weakest and most vulnerable me state, please lift me up.

    Thank you for giving me wonder future in laws who accept me as part of the family. It is now up to fiance to communicate with me and stop ignoring.

    Please have him meet me when I'm back from my trip if he's not back tomorrow.

  3. GOD, I need a miracle today. Been praying for 10 years asking for you to show me the path you would like me to take to recover from others stealing my credit through manipulation. I have raised my kids alone, I have survived but I cannot get the bank to help me with the last part even though I have equity. I am current on all my bills but I cannot get them to help me use my equity to put me in a safe place. Going forward is not going to be safe nor has the past 10 years. I know that I would not have been able to do it without you. Please allow the people to hear my plea, listen to my request, accept my sincere honesty that I need this to finally get a safe place. I have devoted the last 10 years to not doing bankruptcy with pride and don't want to go that way. Please hear my prayer and create this miracle in my life, thank you so much for being there. So thankful for everything I have and will continue to help others that will not hurt me and my family. amen
