I just need the power of patience to hang in there. I want to give up many times, but something keeps telling me to hang in there and things will work out. I really hope that's the truth and not some evil plot I'm falling for. ;\)

Dar you have to hang in there. When you feel at your lowest and you can't make it anymore, drop to your knees and pray like it's your last day to God.

I would ask God for a sign to continue and yep everytime I asked God delivered and so I just kept plugging away.

You can do this. We are all in this mess together.

Dar:

glam is right and it is something i really have to do, too, because i am very vulnerable today and if i don't watch it, i will say many things i might regret.

Dar, that is why this site is such a blessing, even if the answer is not always apparent, the fact that you can share your burden helps takes a load off your mind.

I honestly think I pray "wrong". I don't think I talk to Him right. I pretty much talk to him in the car, or while I'm laying down in bed. Maybe I should get on my knees to pray like I did when I was little?

Praying does not have to be done a certain way or at certain times.

It is your personal communication with God. That means you can talk to him in the car, while lying in bed, in the shower, where ever you want and you know what? HE knows your every thought and everything you will do in the future, too!!

Yes, you can get on your knees, too. I have done that and I just did just that today, because I feel so worn out and dragged down.

((((Dar)))) There is no wrong when you talk to God. As long as you speak your heart and are faithful, he will answer. It may not be the outcome you had hoped for, but he will do his will.

Keep the faith, doll. Keep the faith.

Yes Dar there is NO wrong way to pray. God is always listening. I just said I drop to my knees mostly because I was at my lowest and just couldn't go on.

I would just be a crying mess on the floor asking God for help. First of all, he instantly made me feel better and I could think more clearly and knew what direction I needed to take.

I pray in bed, the shower, at the gym is big for me now. I walk and pray. Also remember God doesn't always answer or give you what you have asked. It also may take a long time for God to answer.

For example, I have been asking to bring my h home since this whole mess started. Now God has NOT answered that, but I do believe God is working on me. This journey has been just as much about me as it has been for my h.
