PLEASE PRAY FOR LATRENA WHO IS SUFFERING WITH A CRACK ADDICTION. SHE HAS BEEN ACTIVELY USING AND NEEDS CLARITY TO SEE WHAT SHE IS DOING TO HER LIFE. I PRAY FOR HER TO GET THE STRENGTH TO LEAVE IT ALONE AND THE CLARITY TO KNOW HER TRUE FRIENDS FROM THOSE THAT ARE JUST USING HER

Jeni, I join you in praying for your friend. Addiction takes a terrible toll on those who suffer from it and also from all who love them.

May Angels surround her to give her the strength to fight this horrible addiction. I've lost many friends and family members to drug and alcohol abuse. It's heartbreaking to watch them and their families suffer. May God Bless them all. Lynn

i am asking for your prayers for latrena to help her to stay strong especially now. this is the time of the month that she gets weak and people that don't mean her well come around. ultimately it is up to her to want to change but i figure more prayers couldn't hurt

For Latrena, Jeni must care very deeply for you. She has asked us again for more prayers to help you fight off your addiction. I, for one, will give you all the prayers that you need and then some just for good measure. You can be strong, you are strong. I will ask God to place an Angel at each corner of your house to help protect you from those who want to do you harm and see you fail. We all have our faith in you, hopefully this will help you get thru these rough days. God Bless you. These are (((((((hugs))))))).
Take good care. You CAN do this!!!!!!! Good Luck. Lynn

Jeni, see how everyone is supporting you as you are helping Latrena. Now you have two candle groups going, the one mentioned above, LTRNA, and the old one Rena. So much light shining into your lives!
Love, Edda

edda, lynn, kriann, dj thank you soo much for getting me through this. her fight has just begun, because once you put the drugs down then you have to learn to live life on life terms without going back. latrena has asked me to tell you all that she is now after seeing all this love and support from everyone that she too will pray for others and others like her so that they can also find their way out of the darkness. love to you all.

jeni

ps. being a recovering addict myself, i know that there is always the possiblity of relapse but through this what i have learn is that God is so real and present and prayers are answered.

Jeni Don't ever stop praying - The Lord will help your friend. Ask him for your miracle - it will come. One miracle that you have already achived - we're all praying for her! Your a good friend, Jeni. May the Lord Bless & keep you.

My son Jason Ryan, who is now in prison because of his addiction to drugs, He is alive! I thank the Lord everyday for saving my son from the evil of this world.
All who read; Please pray for our lost souls. They all need our prayers & the Lords light to descend upon each one of them.

Psalm 121
I lift up my eyes toward the mountains;
whence shall help come to me?
My help is from the Lord,
who made beaven and earth.

May He not suffer your foot to slip;
may He slumber not who guards you:
Indeed He neither slumbers nor sleeps,
the guardian of Isreal.

The Lord is your guardian;
the Lord is your shade;
He is beside you at your right hand.
The sun shall not harm you by day,
nor the moon by night.

The Lord will guard you from all evil;
He will guard your life.
The Lord will guard your coming and your going, both now and forever.

O Lord, look down from heaven, behold, visit and relieve my son, Jason Ryan & Latrena from all their sins. Look upon them with the eyes of thy mercy; give each one, comfort and sure confidence in thee, defend Jason & Latrena from all evil; keep Jason & Latrena in perpetual peace / safety. I pray through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.

For He shall give His angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways. Psalm 91:11

ALL WHO READ - PRAY
