Please forward, please help

Just now, I flipped to a random page in the Bible, and this is what it said:

Galatians: 5:1 - For freedom Christ set us free; so stand firm and do not submit again to the yoke of slavery.

We all face challenges and uncertainties. We all face tears, anxiety, and feelings of helplessness when faced with those challenges. It's the most difficult thing in the world to deal with because none of us know what'll happen in the next minute, the next hour, the next day, the next year, or the course our lives will take. Satan is always trying to trick us or beat us down into a hole. He wants to break us. . break our spirits, and break our love. But what he doesn't realize is, love can't be broken. Human beings can choose not to be broken. God will not be broken. And all the beautiful things in the world, and all our blessings will not be broken if we choose not to let them become broken.

God set us free. He gave us our own will, our own ability to reason and make choices. Some of us are naturally better suited to enduring, physically and mentally, depending on the physical body we have, and brain. But you can't make me believe that someone who wasn't blessed with as good health physically, or as good a situation physically, can't believe. Sometimes just thinking we're trapped, physically trapped, and thinking something's out of our control, it forces reality to be that way. . and it doesn't have to be. Even if all the believing in the world doesn't change something the way we expected it to (it never hurts to believe in changing something specific), it will still change something that needs to be changed in our lives. That something could be so small we never notice it, or so huge that it's life-changing, but it's still there, simply through the power of the mind, and through hope.

One of my neighbors is going through a really tough time right now. He might lose his hearing, and has a brain tumor (causing him to possibly lose his hearing). The doctors say there's a 50/50 chance. He might have to have a machine implanted in his head and attached to his ear all his life, or might need surgery to take the tumor out, or a miracle might happen, or the worst could happen - him being deaf permanently, or any combination of any of those things. I need anyone who can hear me, anyone who's listening, to pray for him, and pray for this family who's done so much for me. They're kinda like my second parents, and I love them. So, ask God to take care of them, help him get better, and if not, ask God for there to be a bigger plan than what's happening now. The family needs strength and hope. So, I need you guys to pray for that.

Me, I think I just need sleep to get out of this fog. Sorry if some of the stuff I said didn't make sense. Keep praying and keep believing. We need Novenas. We'll all wake up tomorrow.

God, I need you to send a powerful force or a powerful something that'll help us right now. All of us. I need you to help me see the way you're guiding me. Shine the light brighter through the fog. I need you to let me have my freedom but help me heal, and help all of us heal. I need you to help me follow you. Tonight is when I need you to carry me so there's only one set of footprints. Carry all of us. Please help us.

Everyone reading this, please put aside my situation and forward this to anyone who'll listen, please pray for this family, who's become my family. I know you see tons of things every day asking you to forward things or do things for other people, but just for one day, all Im asking is that we get as many prayers as possible. I can't even really see what Im typing right now. Please pray for us. Like I said, tomorrow's a new day.
