My daughter got married Mar. 2002.
I have prayed for her husband since my daughter was a baby.
I ask God if he would allow me to know when someone came - if he was the one God chose. I told both my daughters to pray for their future husbands.
I did not know if my daughter did this or not until one day a young lady was talking about the right man. I suggested her praying about the which one
God' wants her to marry. My daughter said that was what she did and God answered her prayer. Well, he answered mine too. I knew that this young man was the one just a week or so after I met him. Before either of the them knew that they loved each other. I prayed because he did not fit the description I had asked for. God told me to look at his heart. He got saved at 16, but then got the true reason behind his parents divorce. And that ended that.
My daughter got save around 4 or t. She was at almost everyone of Jerry's meetings at Eastgate in Bremerton, the first time he ever came to town.
HERE'S THE PROBLEM
He husband does not keep a job. They lived me until he decided he wanted to move back to Texas. He responds to things people say before he gives it any thought. Anyway my daughter found out 1 wk after they got there that she was pregnant. She wants to have the baby here, he wants to stay there. She feels that she is the one who has done all the sacrificing. They didn't have $ for her pills so when they told me of course I told them to use protection. He told me not to worry. Well, I think now he believes that my daughter got pregnant on purpose so that she could get him to move back here. They both knew that she was no longer on the pill and neither used any protection. But someone told him that she could not have gotten pregnant that fast. She was only off the pill 2 wks. But you become fertile after a fews days of no pills. Not sure he believes that. Therefore, he tells her he doesn't know how he feels about the news of her being pregnant. Now neither of them even talk about the baby. He has worked maybe 6 wks or so their first year. She has been the soul supporter. He has been working in Texas since they arrived, but they are living with his father. A temporary job. But he waits for his father, friends to tell him about someone that they know can hire him. He won't go out on his own.
HERE'S THE PRAYER REQUEST AFTER ALL THAT:
He asked me to fly down and drive home with her. He will come down a month before the baby is born (Feb) and leave when it is a month old. They are staying together and love each other but both want different things. She wants to act like married people, have a husband that works, a place of their own even if its a tent to live. He wants to give her everything but I don't think he knows how. Doesn't know what he wants to do with his life career wise.
I think that their decision to be apart is way wrong.
GOD PUT THIS MARRIAGE TOGETHER - EVEN WITH ALL THE THINGS MY SON IN LAW HAS DONE IS DOING .
I STILL BELIEVE WITH EVER FIBER OF MY BEING THAT GOD TOLD ME HE WAS THE onE AND THAT I NEEDED TO LOOK AT HIS HEART.
NOW MY PRAYER IS THAT GOD WILL HAVE THE HEART COME OUT. THAT HE WILL GIVE HIM A DESIRE, AMBITION TO WORK AND SUPPORT THE WOMAN HE SAYS HE LOVES. PROVIDE FOR HIS BABY.
SATAN WANTS TO DESTROY WHAT GOD PUT TOGETHER. PLEASE PRAY THAT GOD WILL GIVE THEM WISDON, AGREEMENT AND ABOVE ALL STRENGTH TO FIGHT WHAT SATAN IS TRYING TO DO TO STOP MY SON IN LAW FROM HEARING GOD.
THANK YOU FOR LISTENING.
A LITTLE PRAYER FOR MOM WOULDN'T HURT EITHER.
WISDOM FOR ME TO KNOW WHEN TO TALK AND WHEN TO BE QUITE. AND WHAT TO DO AND NOT DO IN THIS SITUATION WHEN ASKED TO BE A PARTICIPANT
THANKS AGAIN
GOD BLESS
