4kids, excellent scripture. It shows how real Paul was. We cannot be perfect but we should continually strive to be the people God want us to be. And until we realize we cannot do this on our own but only through Him, will we constantly go to the left and to the right instead of keeping our eyes fixed on Him.
It is no wonder what has happened to my M.
sf, I love that verse. In reading your thread for the past couple of days, it is evident that you are doing this with your family. The worlds' ways are not His. Following Him and doing what He would do will appear crazy to the world.
HHIF, FaithfulH is an excellent person to help you in your walk. He has suggested excellent materials that have helped me keep focused on Him.
As much as I want my W back home, I am blessed to come to really know the Lord through this crisis and I see blessings for my children. Even while we miss her, our love for her has been constant and it feels as though she realizes this, even in all her confusion. This is the time that your family needs you to be the spiritual leader in your family. My focus is to make this a permanent change in myself. I fear that it would be temporary.
Know this, there are dangers for your spouse and yourself than the crisis of the health of your M.
1 Peter 5:8 "Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour."
The enemy wants nothing more to hurt God's children so he can hurt God. He will take advantage at any opportunity to hurt your family. Be vigilant.
