Beloved of All
I’m reaching out with a heavy heart and would be so grateful for your prayers. Today I had a very painful argument with my housemate ###, who is also my best friend. ### is autistic and has a condition called hyperkinetic disorder, which makes it hard for him to regulate emotions. Although I’ve always tried to be gentle, supportive, and understanding — cooking for him, being kind, praying for him — lately he’s been extremely angry and often speaks to me with frustration or blame. Today, things escalated. He said that my grief over losing my father is causing him stress, and told me not to go into his room anymore — even though I had only gone in to use the printer. I felt deeply hurt. I suggested maybe we shouldn’t live together anymore, because I’ve been feeling overwhelmed and worn down by how tense things have become. He said maybe he’ll move out, but nothing is decided. What makes this harder is that I have serious health issues. I live with Crohn’s disease and had surgery to remove my entire large intestine, so I now have an ileostomy — which means I wear a medical bag attached to my stomach. I also suffer from fatigue, infections, and chronic pain. I can’t work full-time or afford rent alone. I receive disability benefits, but finding safe housing with my condition and my cat is incredibly difficult. On top of everything, I’m still grieving the recent loss of my father. The sorrow is real, and it’s heavy. Please pray for Jesus Christ to bring full healing to ###’s mind and mental health. I ask that God reach the root of what’s causing this distress and restore peace, balance, and compassion in him. Please also pray for me — for strength, provision, and a clear path forward. I need somewhere safe and stable, and I trust that God sees my situation even when I feel invisible.
