Humble Prayer Warrior
Please pray for a small groups leader in my rural area. Prayer requests can be sources of
gossip and have been used as gossip material. Though assured that things "stay in the
small group," things did not stay in the small group. I feel hurt by this, insulted, angry, and
just plain tired and sad. I have people in this group not talking to me, members avoid me,
may be angry at the leader. It's all so twisted and makes no sense to me, other than I feel
uncomfortable in the group. This was my last ditch effort at organized religion in this area,
because it is a very small-minded, clannish religious area where many outsiders are not
truly welcomed. If I had remained "an island" of silent misery, then I would not be suffering
this rejection right now.
