Dear frens, please pray for my sister Petra. I am sad and have been doing everything to help her, but without good outcome.
She is mentally ill, living in her own flat, but not able to realise that she needs more help. Probably the contract for the flat will be cancelled because she is not able to maintain it in good shape.
Due to her mental state she does not realise the chaos, waste in her flat and is unfortunately also not able to maintain her health or hygiene.
Due to our laws she can decide for herself (which normally is a good thing), because nobody including herself is in danger (suizide or an attack to others). She is now living in really bad hygenic, unhealthy conditions and I am living 300 km far away, for some days I am now at her side and can only do small things which will be gone tomorrow eventually due to her mental state.
Due to Corona and all things we know about hospitals and care homes, it is not a good way to sent her there and she does not want to leave the flat neither. She wants to live alone, but is not able to do it. I am very sad and feel really helpless, already praying.
Please pray for improvement of her physical, mental health, heavenly support and protection to find a better living for her. (perhaps also praying regarding posession through demons/negative forces)
Thank you very much and God bless and protect you all!
“Heavenly Father, thank you for delivering our sister in Christ, Petra, from all chaos and disarray. Your peace and your light envelope her now, and we are grateful for her release, which is also ours”. Amen.
Peace to you eagle eyes.🙏
Amen
Thank you, fren.
Amen. Thank you for your prayer and the wonderful words. The peace I felt very soon :-)
Dear frens, thanking you all already now. For some hours I will now be helping my sister clean up etc., therefore I will come back to you only in a few hours again.
EDIT: Dear frens, thank you for all you kind words and prayers. I definitely felt it very soon for myself, my burden and mood was lighter.
Unfortunately after driving to her she did not opened the door and did not react to calling by phone. Two hours later after I waited some time and organized some important things for my sister I had to leave without any success seeing her. She only called back when I already was nearly back to where I sleep and she was in a bad mood.
For me this could also be a good sign, because if her illness is caused by negative forces, they don't like prayers very much. Therefore please keep praying, if you like, I would appreciate it very much. God bless you all.
Pardon my English, I am a fren from Germany - WWG1WGA
WWG1WGA. Praying for you and proud to have someone like you in our community, putting others before you in these crazy times. You are a great person.
Thank you so much for your support. She is my sister, she has nobody else. Our mother is 86 and also not so healthy, living in the North of Germany like me. God bless you and your family.
In the Name of Jesus Christ we command the evil spirit to be gone from her.
Thank you so much, I really think that this is her main problem. If you like, would you keep on going with prayers to chase the evil spirits away. Thank you, I keep you updated.
Praying for your sister, it is great that you are helping her.
Thank you for your prayer. She is my sister and has nobody, so this is the way to do it. God bless you and your family.
I am praying for you and Petra. God be with you both.
Amen.
Thank you for your support and your prayers.
I pray for the world every day. You and Petra are included !
Thank you for your spiritual work and your help, dear fren. God bless and protect you.
🙏
Thank you so much!!!!
Prayers on the way fren.
Thank you, dear fren. God bless you.
Prayers sent.
Thank you and God bless you, fren.
I'm not sure where your sister is money-wise, does she get anything from the government? If she has a bit, I know plenty of people who stay home and have home health care come to their house to care for them. They can be kind of pricey though. But, sometimes the price is worth it in the end versus facing the alternative.
There's an app called care.com that you can download and look for people who work privately, for home healthcare. I hear it really works.
I wish you all very well and hope your sister can find some help! Appreciate you trying to do your best as well.
We are living in Germany and there are charitable companies who do this work, but it is always via payment from the government. She had social workers coming, same company as for the flat, but she does not keep the meeting dates or is often very rude and stubborn, unfortunately.
Thank you for your support and these recommendations, I never heard about churches that do this here, but will inform myself. Your work is very valuebable and needed, really. But often not very appreciated from society.
Dear fren, we are living in Germany. And yes, she receives money from the government and my mother and help her out where we can.
She has had support by social workers, but she is not able to keep meeting dates and also often is very stubborn so that at the moment they also terminated the help of the social workers which are from the same company as in regards for the contract for the flat.
Just like "when shit hits the fan" situation. Thank you for your good wishes and your suppuort, fren.
Praying for her and all such lost souls. You don't say how old she is, if she is demented with age-- that makes some difference in her needs, but it is always a good time to stay out of institutions. I had someone who was demented and also anxious and combative and a hoarder who took any attempt to clean up as an attempt to steal her valuable trash. That was resolved by moving her to a family with a big house who had a spare room and fed her. Her mother had been the same way and had someone come in daily at the end. Both of them benefited from a little Bible reading and hugs. Finding such a caregiver, even part time for cleaning, is the best solution I can think of.
Thank you for your prayers, especially that you include all - there are so many who are lost and all alone!
She is 58 and does not want to go into an institution. She loves living on her own, but in the last months it has become worse due to the fact that she has denied one of her meds, which is a heavy one.
I so wish she would find a very good doctor who could find the right meds for her.
The story that you are telling about the demented one sounds very like my sister with the difference that it is due to her mental illness. And this story is very heartwarming and helps me to believe in humanity again. That family that housed them and cared for them are really big caregivers with a big loving heart.
May your sister Petra be happy and balanced and free from anxiety.
It shows what a good caring person you are that you are supporting her.
Dear fren, thank you very much for your kind words and your wishes. God bless you and your family.
Praying for you and her ❤️
I think you should have somebody come in once a week, just to clean, and keep things organized. If you can afford that that would make a huge difference in her life. I suffer from mental illness, and it is difficult to do basic tasks and keep things organized. I think you might find somebody coming in once a week just to clean and organize groceries and stuff like that and just be a friend to your sister it would be very helpful. If that works out, and is pleasing to Petra, You could have the Percy come in twice a week. But even once a week would give you peace of mind, And would allow for you to know what’s happening at her apartment on a weekly basis. That person could check in with you, and tell you what’s going on there. Hopefully you could spend some more time over there, maybe visiting every two months. Just showing some initial care, and not being too invasive, would be a win-win for everybody.
Yes, she had such cleaning and social service, but due to her not keeping meeting dates or opening the door, this has also now been terminated unfortunately. Probably something new will be there, but Petra is so stubborn and really not easy to handle.
That is why I was asking for prayers, because it is really bad at the moment.
Thank you for your support and your helping thoughts, very much appreciated, fren.
Would it be possible to find her a place to live that is near to you, but still give her the ability to live alone that she desires? It would be easier for you to care for her, while at the same time giving her some independence. Don't try to do everything alone, find some help if you can.
Prayers for both of you, fren. I know how difficult things like this can be.
Yes, this is also on my list, but very complicated at the moment. I hope we can get there, because she would have more contacts, a new beginning and her family near to her. Unfortunately, people with these problems do not like change very much, because there day-to-day life gives them stability and the feeling of safety, even if it is chaos.
Thank you for your praysers and I really need it as well and have already felt that everything is lot lighter since the lovely prayers of all the frens :-)
May God bless you, fren. You are your sister's guardian angel.
I don't know, she is my sister and has nobody else - family is important. Thank you for your support, fren.
God bless you for doing what you can to help her. We'll be praying.
Thank you and God bless you and your family.
🙏
Thank you, fren.
Prayed for both of you.
Thank you and God bless you.
