Hello everyone! I hate to even post because there are so many others that need prayers, also. I guess that I am just having a really down day. I still stand firm on my belief that one of these days I will be reunited with my husband, thank you God, but I am just having trouble find the strength to endure today. My husband FINALLY called. He wasn't friendly, but he wasn't rude either. He just seemed indifferent. He mainly called to let me know that he wanted to pick up my son for his lodge's Christmas party this Tuesday evening and that he wanted to keep him next weekend because that's when his family will have their Christmas get-together. My son is so excited, and I am happy for him. It will have been 3 weeks without him seeing his dad and that is a long time for a 7 year old. But at the same time, I feel so terribly guilty because I am jealous of him. It hurts so bad to be rejected and excluded from normal holiday traditions that we should be enjoying together as a family. I thank the Lord that he at least called, that he at least remembered my son and that God put a seal over my lips and a guard in my heart so that I didn't say anything negative to him. I guess I'm just disappointed that there wasn't any sign of sorrow, remorse or love from him. I'm sorry guys...I guess I am just having my own pity party! God forgive me. I just really need 2 or more to stand together for God to give me the strength to endure. The other day he gave me the following passage: "Let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart." I know what he's telling me...hang on, keep the faith and WAIT!!! I'm beginning to think "wait" is the dirtiest 4-letter word I know! lol Thanks in advance for all of your prayers and support. I want you all to know that I have taken this board to God many times and I will continue to do so. I love you all! Teresa

Teresa - I will stand in agreement with you.

Father God, I come to you in prayer. First Father thank you for the things we take for granted....the trees, the sky, the stars, etc. Father God we love you and we are thankful that you love us. Father God I ask for you to use divine intervention in this marriage. Father so many of us are hurting because of our wayward spouses. Father my prayer is that you restore this family and bring this husband to repentence. Father God, I ask this in the name of your son, Jesus. AMEN AMEN

Dear Father in Heaven, please crush every demon in Teresa's husband and show him what he is missing, and get him home where he belongs. Give her more strength, and restore their family. Your time is best we know but we still hope your best happens to be pretty soon! Help her to take comfort in You even more. Soon they will be together and thanking you and spreading word of your miracles!
Praise you, Jesus, in advance! You have healed all kinds of things and have performed all sorts of miracles, so we KNOW this is no big deal for you to take care of! No sweat for OUR FATHER to deal with! Praise the Lord!

I am right there with you!
Dont wait just pray and claim it like it as IT HAS BEEN DONE!
I know how tough the wait is but dont loose faith, GOD HAS already answered the question before you asked it.
I too must confess I get weary during the wait...and I realized that I kept asking God "Whenever you want, bring Jodi home" and I feel I should have been saying to HIM in a prayer of praise and Thanksgiving "Thanks you GOD that Jodi is home" isnt praying in faith by what we hope for not what we see?
hang in there, we are on this boat together headed for the other side and even though the storms rage out of control sometimes, The Savior is on board and we KNOW that with just one word HE WILL calm it!

Made me think of this verse......

...Psalm 107:26-30

...those aboard mount up to the heavens, they go down again to the depths; their courage melts away because of their plight.
...they reel to and fro and stagger like a drunken man and are at their wits' end
..then they cry to the Lord in their trouble. and He brings them out of their distresses.
...He hushes the storm to a calm and to a gentle whisper, so that the waves of the sea are still.
...then they are glad because of the calm, and He brings them to their desired haven.


The Lord IS bringing our husbands and wives back to the safety and calm of our covenants......into our havens and into our arms.
Amen.

Carrie-Ann.
