Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | AoSHQ Weekly Prayer ListPlease submit any prayer requests to “Annie’s Stew” at apaslo at-sign hotmail dot com. Prayer requests are generally removed after four weeks unless we receive an update. Prayer Requests: 9/18 – Random Dave posted an update to his job progress. He is still looking for FT work, but has accepted a substitute teacher position (more flexibility for interviews, some income to slow the bleeding). He asks for prayers that the interview results he is waiting on will get back to him soon, especially if one is the “right job”. If any are “not the right job”, they would fall away soon and get back to him, and that if all of them are “not the right job”, the ‘right job” would show itself aggressively, so he doesn’t miss it! He also thanks the Horde and the folks at church for their prayers and support. 8/14 Update – Random Dave needs continued prayers for his job situation, that God would guide him to the right one soon, and also for prayers for M’s grandmother, who fell the other day and tore a ligament. 10/22 Update – M’s grandmother is healing well. She is mostly mobile now (on crutches), and occasionally has bouts of bad pain. They praise God for the healing and humbly request additional healing. Random Dave reports no real change on his job situation. He continues to pray for God to make the path known as he applies, and periodically deal with “good” interviews that end up going nowhere. 9/18 – Brother Tim posted that he has been overnight in his car more than indoors. He is convinced that his retirement/resignation was a severe error, a result of fatigue and depression. He asks for prayers. 10/17 – Bother Tim posted that he has been in the hospital for 3 weeks. 10/10 – Just Some Guy asked for prayers for his former work colleague, who had a heart attack and stroke. 10/10 – Mile, okravangelist, requested prayers for Mama Publius, for grace and fortitude, and that she passes in her sleep. Mama Publius is in home hospice care. 10/24 Update – Mama Publius passed away this past week. 10/14 – NR Pax requested prayers for a friend, whose husband died on 10/10 after a long illness. 10/17 – Pooky’s Girl posted that she is in the hospital, because Wee Pooky is threatening to come early at 30 weeks. 10/24 Update – Pooky’s Girl’s contractions have been stopped. She is at 31 weeks along, so every week that Wee Pooky stays put is less time in the NICU. 10/31 – Annie’s Stew (and, I assume, all the Horde) ask for God’s blessings on Misanthropic Humanitarian as he steps away from the blog. We thank him for his service to the Horde and to Christ’s Kingdom. 10/31 – ChristyBlinkyTheGreat requested prayers that her mother’s eventual passing into heaven be in peace as she sleeps, without any pain or fear. She thinks it will be in the next few weeks or months, as she is approaching 96 years old. 11/4 – Teresa in Fort Worth sent an update that she is not feeling well. Every muscle and bone hurts, on top of the fatigue and weakness she was already experiencing. The nurse at UTSW thinks it may be due to receiving chemo on top of radiation, on the same day. The good news is that the CA19-9 number is 4.9, below the threshold of 37. This was her twelfth chemo treatment, marking a year since she started this protocol. She is worried that it may be a preview of how she will feel when the cancer starts to take over.For submission guidelines, please contact Annie's Stew, who is managing the prayer list. You can contact her at: apaslo at hotmail dot com. If you see a prayer request posted in a thread comment, feel free to copy and paste it and e-mail it to Annie's Stew. Please note: Prayer requests are generally removed after four weeks or so unless we receive an update. 2 Corinthians 4:8-9 We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair, persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed.

Good morning all!
Son and his buddy went camping last night. It was in the 40s. He had to borrow his father’s sleeping bag. I guess Christmas shopping for him will be easy this year. Prayers for all of the Horde. Posted by: Jmel at November 07, 2026 07:22 AM (3TlS+) 2
Morning, all.

2 Cor 4 ending verse
17 For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. 18 So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.

I always feel silly asking for anything on this thread, as so many have it so much worse. But here goes:
I was watching 1944s Hollywood Canteen the other night. It's a wonderful, funny and touching movie, but I had to stop halfway through because it was like a knife in my heart. It was, as I said, a funny movie - happy, smiling and innocent in a way real life never is, but how "Hollywood life" is. I couldn't stop crying, comparing that life with my own, and wishing I could live in that sunny, carefree world. If anyone could spare a thought for my self-loathing and chronic depression, I would appreciate it. Keeping the 'happy mask' on is very tiresome. And again, apologies for asking when so many of you are hurting so much more. Posted by: Mary Poppins' Practically Perfect Piercing (aka Eloquent Depression) at November 07, 2026 07:38 AM (qRla/) 11

Aside from the disastrous week for Our Country, I sat down and added things up, and- yeah, yeah a few bumps here and there but overall life is good. I think it's important to be grateful for all the good people and things in your life. Thankful for your family, etc. The Lord provides and thanks are in order. White Pilling, people. It's okay to be happy. Posted by: naturalfake at November 07, 2026 07:48 AM (YSUhf) 16

-- {{{{MP3}}}} Oh how I wish I could ease your depression. I've been there. I know how it feels to plumb the depths of such an affliction. I can literally start to feel myself going down into the hole that never ends when it starts creeping into my mind. From my "friends in a box" perspective, you are such a wonderful, highly intelligent person and I know I'd feel the same if I knew you in person. But most of us can never see what others tell us we are. I am my own worst critic, and I say such horrible things to myself about myself I'd never say to another person. Just know that you're never alone in your suffering. We're here (lucky you!) and so many of us understand. Posted by: Lady in Black at November 07, 2026 07:52 AM (qBdHI) 18

Another busy day. Up at 4:30, took care of the dogs, drove for 45 minutes to the show, now sitting outside the RV with Diana. Stewarding until 2:00, drive home, take care of the dogs, then off to Mass at 4:00. Vigil Mass is not my favorite, but needs must.

Final airshow of the season here today at NAS Pensacola, home of the Blue Angels.
They flew yesterday with only five instead of the usual six. That is because Blue Angels No. 6 (opposing solo), Maj. Scott Laux, has been booted from the team for "failure to uphold the standards expected of a Blue Angels member." He's no longer listed on the Blue Angels website. Also no longer listed on the website is the Blue Angels' Public Affairs Officer, Capt. Danielle Cribb, who has previously described Maj. Scott Laux as her "mentor" on the team. Doesn't take much reading between the lines on that one. Posted by: one hour sober at November 07, 2026 07:57 AM (J4Dwc) 31

I was told that the Democrats' success was due to the Hispanic vote. If those people are Catholics, they got some explaining to do to the Lord. They voted for the advocates of objective evil: aborticomaniacs, sex butchers and murder applauders. Posted by: Hadrian the Seventh at November 07, 2026 07:58 AM (b8Otf) 32
Veterans Day is next week. If you have the opportunity, maybe go to a ceremony and/or thank a Veteran.

Posted by: Mary Poppins' Practically Perfect Piercing (aka Eloquent Depression) at November 07, 2026 07:38 AM (qRla/) You have my prayers, MP4. My husband suffers in the same way, except that the world he wants to be in is that of the warrior. I think he has never known what to do with his life or how to be after he left the Marine Corps. He wants so badly to be anywhere but here, in his own life. Posted by: Dash my lace wigs! at November 07, 2026 08:03 AM (CjHsb) 37
The "cure" for my depression when I was there was to realize that it's the normal state of affairs. It isn't something wrong with you or something to fix, necessarily. You actually do suck. I suck. We all suck. Humans suck. The Universe sucks. You're not automatically awesome just for being. You don't deserve all that is good just because you were shat into this world through no doing of your own. You're made in your Creator's image, and your Creator is the guy whose last two attempts to create friends for Himself resulted in Satan and then us rotten reprobates who hate His guts regardless, too.
You're not supposed to gaze inward upon yourself and feel a rush of joy and light and loveliness. You're supposed to feel crappy, because we are, constitutionally, crappy. So either wallow in the crap, or look back at your Creator and say to Him "Oh, wow, I get it. No wonder this world is so awful. It's swarming with awful things like me". And then go out and try to make at least one or two things about this world we have to share with Him a little less intolerable just so you and maybe someone else can get through today somehow. You can't fix it, but you can make it better. Posted by: Warai-otoko at November 07, 2026 08:03 AM (aKiSo) Processing 0.01, elapsed 0.0109 seconds. |
