Wow, Helen, I had no idea of the illnesses and difficulties that our fellow FanStorians are facing considering that I am rarely on the site. Now that I am aware, I will definitely add them to my prayer list.

Your well-written prayer-poem is heartfelt. Your concern and compassion for our fellow poets/author are significant in this poem. May the Lord hear your plea.

Hi Helen,
It's so good of you to carry the flag for these people who are struggling, letting us know who needs our prayers. It's so important. Our prayers are always heard. In fact, God knows our needs even before we ask Him. He knows what's on our hearts. And He doesn't want repetition. He doesn't want some long elaborate prayer either. He wants our simple request, in faith.
I knew about some of the health issues you mentioned, but not all of them. Every prayer counts. We may not realize most of the time, but we are in a battle. And we've got to be warriors. Prayer Warriors!
Here's a song by Dallas Holm, especially for you:

Blessings,

Thank you for sharing this request for prayer for those who are going through difficult times. You are a real friend to so many. This has been a busy week for me so I am just getting caught up again.

    You are welcome. Had new windows installed in my apartment this week, so a lot of moving and cleaning.

This is a lovely prayer for your Fan Story friends. I know you have some health issues yourself and your husband has some, too. It is just who you are that you think of others.

    Thank you so much, Judy. I think it helps to think about others and know we are in a community. I hesitate to ask you about Rookie but him and another dear lady's cat have been on my mind, too. Hugs!

Helen,

What a precious, precious gift. Thank you.

It is kinda crazy when I consider the idea that you have not actually ALWAYS been here. You seem as integral to this site as the contest listing and Tom himself.

You have that nature ~ like a lot of nurses ~ who can walk into a chaotic scene and ~ ahhhh... ~ introduce those welcome notes of peace and sanity again.

Thank you for always having your head on a swivel and your heart on open. Smooooches~

Thank you Helen for your information and concern for fellow writers on this site. Some I know of and others I don't recall reading in my year and a half on FanStory. However, we don't need to personally know people to pray for them.

Heavenly Father, we lift up all of the FanStory family and especially those struggling with various illnesses and difficult life situations. Please comfort them and give them peace, so they can feel your loving arms holding them close. Thank you Heavenly Father that we have found each other and are a family of readers and writers. Help us all to grow stronger in your love and love one another. Amen

This rispetto, For Them We Pray, has the proper formatting and sends out a prayer list which helps us to direct our prayers to those who are in need. Nice.

There are many masks we all wear to hide the pain. It becomes a secret challenge to persevere, to continue to write the feelings of our hearts. To share the love of God with fervent passion. There is a healing power when fingers rest on the keys and words fill the page. Prayers have already been sent. What a wonderfully written poem. Best of luck with your writing!

Have a great day, and God bless.
