Hi everyone.

Well as I have been saying, of late God has been going much work in my life with all that my kids and I have been suffering because of what my wife has done.

Well here is a turn of events. As some of you know, I have been saying that I feel like I have to move to get away from all the bad memories and all to include all the stuff that is happening to me and my children as a result of everything. Well, at first I thought God was leading me to just up and move to colorado. (currently my wife is living in the State of Washington with the OW.. yes.. OW .... and my 3 daughters and myself life in California) Well today (my day off) I was just called by my boss and my company is offering me a job in Virginia where I will be making 20k more than what I am now. Now this in itself is a major blessing because of the financial hardship that my wife left me and the kids in, and it also affords us the ability to start fresh somewhere else. But I admit that the fear factor is kicking in because now that puts major distance between my wife and us. I admit that a big part of me is hoping that the shock factor of me and the kids moving that far away might cause some major shock factor within my wife (if it is God's will) that will bring her to her knees in repentance to God. But on the plus note, is that if this causes the shock factor of us now being really far out of her reach... hence she would repent and seek god and seek to return to us... it will also put major and much needed distance from us and both of our families that have also been a big problem to our marriage.... not to mention that it would put major distance between her and the OW upon her repentance.

Well I did pray hard about it, and sought much christian advice about it, and it looks like I am going to submit my name for the job. God has been doing so much in my life for the past month and a half. And the last thing I want to do now is stop the momentum of all the blessings he has been sending my way (since I gave it up to him). So here is my prayer.... Please pray for peace, comfort and Joy for both me and my children in this situation... and pray that God will use this move to really reach into my wife and smash the deception that satan has her bound by. I still seek restoration of my marriage very much. I pray that this change of job and move will aid in bringing my wife back to us if it is truly God's will for this blessing to be used as such.

Thank you all.

two things hit me when reading,and u caught me at a good time, one with the Lord tonight,

first,
your first paragraph,
you said "because of what my wife has done"

first mistake.

she is not doing it, the devil is, kristie helped me see this, she is taken captive , the lust of the flesh taking over.

ok,

next,

rest of it all about, if you do this, she will be shocked, much distance upon repentance for ow

ok,
second ********oo,

let God work all that out.

You, focus on God, let Him work out the rest. in essence, forget her except in prayer.
got it?

ok, now, i know you love her, and this must hurt a ton, especially since it is another woman,and not a man. you gotta get ready!!! get ready for when she returns, anddon't focus so much on what she is doing, or how she will react.

i know, i should take my own advice, it is easier to tell and help others, but please listen to me, cause rightnow , i am listening to God, and i think this is what he would want you to hear.

focus on Him and your wonderful,awesome, blessed children, and yes, i would say take the job, tke a leap of faith, it certainly sounds like God oopened the door,
you follow, keep your eyes on him, jump out of the boat, don't look down or lose faith,and guess what, before you know it, your family will be restored.

Lord, you have heardme, Lord, please fulfill Your will for this man, this Godly man, search his heart and nkow his motives, theBIble says you do, God , i ask thisin Your name, amen.

I agree with you Kim... bad first sentence.... like I said.. the evil one has been trying to put alot of doubt within me.. and I was fighting that while I was posting this. But I agree... I didn't even realize how bad of a start that was for this posting. Shesh.... he is sneeky.

But as for everything else... as the last paragraphy implies.. I am going on faith in this. Like I said... God has sent so many blessings my way of late... I don't want to stop the momentum (don't want to hinder what he is doing for restoration). Which is why I am going through with it... mainly just asking for prayers for the rest as stated in the last paragraph. I can't wait until my wife returns so that we can both stand firm against satan together once again!!!!

I believe in my Father and his promises!!!

Hey, Keep looking to Jesus and don't worry about it he is giving you a new start in Virginia where you can raise your children and be happy and love on God. Seek him first and the rest of what you get will be blessings too. I will keep praying for you.

Jesus,
Help this dear brother focus on you and your will and his children and their needs, In Jesus Name,Amen

I believe that God is probably leading you to Virginia for a reason. I left Virginia in October to move to North Carolina to be with my husband. Less than one month after moving there, my husband walked out on me for another woman. I had left a good paying job and took a $27K cut in pay to have the family together and be with the man I love. What a shock and slap in the face. I turned to God. God left the door open for me. My position in DC was not filled and I was able to return to my former job AND they paid my move back here. YEA GOD!!!!!! I believe God did not want me to stay in North Carolina. I believe God wants me here and once he brings conviction on my spouse, he will return my spouse here as well and far enough away from the alien woman. If you are unsure if you are making the right decision, lift it up in prayer to him and ask him to give you a sign. God Bless.

Most Gracious Heavenly Father, I thank you for being a loving and caring Father. Father, I praise you in all things and I lift my brother up to you right now and I ask that you speak to his heart and may he hear your voice Father. Please show him a sign if it is Virginia where you want him to move to. Father, I pray for conviction on this woman's heart and I ask for the scales to be removed from her eyes and for her to return to her husband. I thank you for hearing my prayer. In Jesus' precious name I pray. AMEN

Well here is a weird turn of events....even though my company put me in for the position.... the place where I would have been teaching at won't except me because there is nothing in my records to show that I have had formal training on the equipment I would be teaching Marines. But the kicker is that I have.... so now is where I am left in prayer with God.... Does he want me to have this.... or was I right that satan was trying to side track me...??? HUM?? Prayer time my friends. I am going to contact the team that had come out to where I work at and gave the training for the system to see if they can forward me the certificate of my completion of training so that I can get that forwarded to the school..... But what I am really asking here is for God's will to be done. If he wants me to have the job, then great... if not.... I pray that he will send the answer my way soon as to what he would have of me.... because now I am starting to have doubts about the whole thing. I don't want to be decieved by satan....

Lord hear my prayer and please give me peace of mind and take this situation into your hands and guide me.
