Pleas pray for my 14 yr old granddaughter. She didn’t make the dance team this year(after 3 yrs making it)! Changing to high school and didn’t make it. She is lost and having a hard time accepting this. There was the end of the school court and she did not make that! Then she went to camp and wanted to be vice president of FFA state level and didn’t make that. It has been a defeated summer to say the least. Last night she asked for me to clean her hair. Since 10 she has some form of psoriasis starting. I found 5 bumps at her hairline and prayed it wouldn’t be full blown psoriasis! I know with stress symptoms can appear. Please pray that she can accept all these trials and stay calm enough not to get full blown psoriasis🙏 She is beautiful with long beautiful hair. She actually has a few spots where the sore got too bad and hair never grew back. Praying this can leave her body and she can see the good she has in herself🙏

Heavenly Father,
We lift up Lisa’s granddaughter to You today. Lord, You see her tender heart, her hopes, her disappointments, and every moment this summer that has made her feel defeated. You know how hard she has worked, how much she has dreamed, and how deeply these losses have affected her. wrap her in Your peace. Remind her that her worth is not measured by teams, titles, or positions — but by the beautiful spirit You placed inside her. Let her know she is not failing; she is growing. Open her eyes to the gifts, talents, and strength You have already placed within her
Lord, calm her mind and settle her spirit so stress does not take root in her body. We pray over her scalp, her hairline, and every spot affected by psoriasis. Place Your healing hand upon her. Let inflammation fade, let symptoms ease, and let her body find rest. Protect her beautiful hair, and restore any areas that have been damaged. Bring comfort where she feels fear, and bring confidence where she feels doubt. Give her the ability to accept these trials without losing herself. Help her see that setbacks do not define her future — they prepare her for it. Surround her with encouragement, kindness, and people who speak life into her. Let her feel proud of who she is, even in seasons of change.
And Lord, bless Lisa as she supports her granddaughter. Give her wisdom, patience, and strength to speak hope into her life.
We ask all of this in Jesus’ name,
Amen
Help her figure out why she didn't make the dance team this year so she can make any changes she needs to for next year. It sounds like she may be focusing on end results without doing what she needs to do to get the results. She is at a very difficult age, and my heart goes out to her. But it's also an important age to learn that things don't automatically 'happen' in life--we need to do whatever we can do TODAY in order to get the results we want TOMORROW. To help her feel better, I would tell her that God may be allowing her to take a break for a few months and that she should enjoy this break she's been given. She can begin to work on her goals again when summer is over. My prayers go out to you and your granddaughter.
