Prayers needed

I wanted to blog about guy-girl friendships/discipling/relationships...I will later.

Firstly, I just wanted to say that I need prayer. Badly. I only got 3 hours of sleep last night (3am-6am...then waking up every hour after 6am) because my mind wouldn't stop running. I cannot be like this before, during or after CFW otherwise I will inevitably get really sick....which then means I can't drive home, etc...can't do anything basically.

Perhaps my heart has just been really feeling it the past few days...I don't know what's going on. It may be hormones, whatever. Stress. Who knows? God knows what's wrong with me and my weaknesses. Whatever burdens I may have, they are weighing very heavily on my shoulders right now and I'm exhausted and frustrated...mentally, emotionally, and socially. Which isn't a good thing since 5 girls are coming to stay at the apt either today or tomorrow...when the thing the last thing I feel like doing is socializing...Everything about me is probably screaming, leave me a lone right now...

So, to be more specific, here are my prayer requests for this week (and next week)...
Pray that:
- that I would get rest.
- that my mind would stop thinking...to not let Satan get a foothold in my mind and run with it.
- that I would be able to experience the love of God as well as let it flow through me to the people around me
- that I would not be hindered by pride or any other emotions at CFW, and would be able to keep my eyes on Christ always
- that I would serve with humility and joy and also grow closer to God at CFW.

Requests for others at CFW:
- that they would be blessed to have gone...that God would tear down boundaries, address issues, etc.
- that the chapter would experience growth as a chapter...being unified in vision and in action.
- that the new leadership would be able to grow together, work together, and see things through God's eyes.

Of course, you can pray for other things to but these are just ones that I thought of. Thank you guys!
