November 5th, 2023: I'm praying for my love life. I have been in love with a girl for more than 4 years. I did not pursue her like a mad guy, but I felt like God was bringing her into my life. She came into my life automatically without any effort from my side. I could see a lot of godly interventions. In normal cases, this would have never happened, but she came into my life breaking all natural norms. For example, I was supposed to do my MBA one year prior to my actual joining, but I lost my chance by just 1.2 percentile. Also after I joined, my partner had many friends, but in the second semester, all her friends were moved to another class, and I was one of the main persons to give her company in our class. This and many more interventions had happened. We became good friends, and slowly I started developing feelings for her. I did not force it, but I had fallen in love with her automatically. Over the 4 years, I was scared to tell her my feelings, because, I felt like she would never speak with me later if I did so. Over the years, I had lot of fights with her, main reason being my possessiveness for her. After 4 years,in another friend's marriage, with the little courage I had, I confessed my feelings for her. But with a smile, she said, she is getting married to someone else. More like an arranged marriage, setup by her parents. When I asked her, if there is any chance for us, She again told me "No" with a smile. She was not angry with me, she handled the situation well and told me that she would always remain a good friend. From whatever interactions I have had with her, I can see that she likes me, but she is getting ready to marry someone else only to satisfy her family/social norms and for the same reason, she keeps her feelings to herself and not express it to me. I might also be wrong here. I respect her choice, but then right now I feel totally destroyed. As I said earlier, I never pursued her, but she came into my life, and I do believe it had God's touch and now God himself is trying to remove her from my life which I'm not able to digest. I love her so much, and so if there is chance, I would like everyone to pray for me so that my partner(who I love), her parents and her siblings and convinced to consider me as her future husband and not consider anyother guy as life partner for her. But if God doesn't want her to be in my life, I'm ready to accept with great pain. But I really don't know if I would heal from this pain. I'm requesting everyone to pray for me so that I get a clarity in my life and also please pray that I get the strength to handle this painful situation. (Kevin)

November 3rd, 2023: My mom(age: 58) had mouth and neck cancer surgery before 5years, after treatment she couldn't eat, she will grind the food & eat.

Now again she had some cancer symptoms, so when we diagnosed we found again she is suffering in cancer. Tomorrow they are going for further biopsy & other procedures. Please pray for her, she should be cured, she cant bare any pain, God only have to do a big miracle to her, bec she is always having faith on God & believing God will make her come back from all her suffering. She is such a strong believer & also she will guide us & our kids, we want her to live again without pain. (Mary)
