Life isn't just about us. It's about other people too. This is a room for you to pray for other people and their situations, our government and leaders, anything that's not ourselves. Stand in the gap and shake heaven. Shoulder other people's burdens and care. Shout God's grace, goodness and provision for them. Pray God's heart.

Scared of Spending Christmas Vacation with Abusive
Hi, please pray for me- i am worried about the Christmas vacation (i am a student) because due to financial issues i need to spend most of it with my parents. My father was emotionally and verballly abusive to me and my sister asw well as occasionally lashing out in violence to my mum.
my dad is not a bad person, just a hurting one, and God has done much healing in him. But i still find christmas holidays very difficult.
i have emotional problems and a histoty of suicide attempts and self-harm. I feel panicky at thought of going home.

Lord God I pray that you will turn thinks around for C and her family. Lord bring them together and help them to move on from the past and start to look at the blessing you have in store for them.
Bless C and help her to hear your voice and help her to see home as a place blessed by you. Let her feel joy in her soul as she gets together with her family.
Thank you Lord
