Little Prayer Box: Online Prayers of intercession

One day a woman was walking down the street when she spied a beggar
sitting in the corner. The man was elderly, unshaven, and ragged. As he
sat there, pedestrians walked by him giving him dirty looks They
clearly wanted nothing to do with him because of who he was -- a dirty,
homeless man. But when she saw him, the woman was moved to compassion.

  It was very cold that day and the man had his tattered coat -- more
like an old suit coat rather than a warm coat -- wrapped around him.
She stopped and looked down. Sir? she asked. Are you all right?

  The man slowly looked up. This was a woman clearly accustomed to the
finer things of life. Her coat was new. She looked like that she had
never missed a meal in her life. His first thought was that she wanted
to make fun of him, like so many others had done before. Leave me
alone, he growled.

  To his amazement, the woman continued standing. She was smiling --
her even white teeth displayed in dazzling rows. Are you hungry? she
asked.

  No, he answered sarcastically. I've just come from dining with the
president. Now go away. The woman's smile became even broader.
Suddenly the man felt a gentle hand under his arm. What are you doing,
lady? the man asked angrily. I said to leave me alone.

  Just then a policeman came up. Is there any problem, ma'am? he
asked. No problem here, officer, the woman answered. I'm just
trying to get this man to his feet. Will you help me?

  The officer scratched his head. That's old Bob. He's been a fixture
around here for a couple of years. What do you want with him? See
that cafeteria over there? she asked. I'm going to get him something
to eat and get him out of the cold for awhile. Are you crazy, lady?
the homeless man resisted. I don't want to go in there! Then he felt
strong hands grab his other arm and lift him up. Let me go, officer. I
didn't do anything.

Dear friends, 

We have a anonymous prayer for a man working towards his degree in school. He asks that we pray for a paper that has been submitted, that God would bless and protect the grade. Protection because it seems his Course Leader is dead set on ruining this guy, and has done many things to show his contempt for him. Pray that God would soften the heart of this Professor, that he would be honest and that the paper would succeeded. 

Pray with us! 

I've just been deppresed, feel kind of usless, like all my good years are behind me, and that I will never do anything significant with my life. Nothing I've done has amounted to much. Pray for me please.
