I'd like to ask for prayer for my dad, he's not a Christian and I'd like him to get saved.
More specifically is that he's ALWAYS rubbing me the wrong way, always getting on my nerves. I have a major hate problem when it comes to him, recently he's been exploding over stupid things like a toaster not working or the gas cooker not cooking right. I'm having a hard time keeping my cool.
My dad's name is John.
If any of you are in other sites, prayer groups or whatever could you please ask them to pray for him too? I want to get as MANY Christians praying for him as possible whether they know him or me or not.
Thanks for your help
My dad

I will pray for you father. 
My dad wasn't an active Christian for the first 11 years of my life, but thankfully he is now.

I will pray for your father and that you remain strong and show yourself as a good Christian role model in front of him regardless of how he might irritate you.

I'll be praying and I will share your prayer request.
"Tell me not, in mournful numbers,
Life is but an empty dream!
For the soul is dead that slumbers,
and things are not what they seem.
Life is real! Life is earnest!
And the grave is not its goal;
Dust thou art; to dust returnest,
Was not spoken of the soul."
-Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

My dad isn't saved, either, so I can understand your situation. (My dad is, at least, going to church right now, praise be to God!). I'll pray for your dad, Skynes.

i'm praying...
Jeremiah 29:11, TLB. "For I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord. They are plans for good and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope."
I asked Jesus how much he loved me and he said this much...and he stretched out his hands and died for me.

I will definitely pray. ^_^
[size=84][color=seagreen]YOU SEE
You see into the deepest part of me ---
beyond the fog I hide behind.
You cast your light upon the shadows
that stretch like cobwebs in my mind.
You ease the pain when I am hurting,
and morbid visions from my past
pierce into the realm of Reason
as though I danced on blades of glass.
You grant me strength when I have fallen
and, once again, I've lost my way.
You take my hand in Yours and lead me
into the promise of a brand new day.
You bring order to all my chaos,
yet set my well-laid plans awry.
You place me on a firm foundation ---
then give me wings so I can fly.
You sand away my roughened edges
and polish all the dullest parts
until I stand before Your presence...
a newly-sculpted work of art.
You see into the heart within me,
right through my motives and selfish will.
And yet, in spite of all You see
You say You love me even still.

Just so you know, my dad died this morning of a cardiac arrest. Kind of ironic really, he was going to the hospital for an angeogram or something (stick a camera up an artery to find out whats wrong with his heart). He never made it to the hospital.
I'm ok with it, but my family are taking it pretty hard and we're all in a state of shock, so could you please pray for us?

It turns out my dad's life insurance expired 4yrs ago and was never renewed, so the earthly posessions he bequeaths to us are his debts, loans and credit card bills with virtually no way to pay them off....

My dad's funeral was this morning, quite a big turn out. Finished off with bagpipes playing which a nice touch (he was Scottish). I know for certain now that my dad is with Christ, in a good sense of the term. I was unsure of whether he was saved or not, but had a peace that he was. My Pastor then told me today that while he was praying for his salvation God said to him "He is saved.", which pretty much confirmed my own thoughts.
Please continue praying for us, although a good chunk is behind us, there's still a good lot to go (Christmas is going to be especially nasty).

The law firm that dealt with my dad's will has closed down, and now his will is stored in some huge solicitors firm. We need the original to deal with his estate and it can take up to a year to find it! Could you please pray that it gets found quickly?
Until his estate is settled, we have literally zero money coming in, yet we still have to pay his loans, mortgages, his insurance! (which is really ridiculous, what dead man needs insurance?)
