I know that I have asked for your prayers many times but it seems that God has not answered them. My situation has become so bad that I am at this point forced to move to Egypt, where I will live on the streets and beg for food. It is like that verse in the Bible that says 'the Lord did not answer him either by urim or by prophets or by dreams' and 'he cried out, but there was none to save, even to the Lord but He did not answer.'
Please pray for me that God help me in this new lifestyle and that he open my eyes to see what is the sin that is in me for which He afflicts me.

What's so good about Cincinnati? You like it? You think Cincinnati is cool? I've never heard anyone say, 'I'm going to Cincinnati on vacation.'

May the Lord ease your situation and help you overcome whatever obstacle is ahead of you. Is there anything anyone can do to help you?

Well, a quick look at loser's profile informs us that he/she last posted on September 23 and hasn't been active since. If at all possible, I'd be interested in some kind of update as well. |
