Training for a Marathon, Hoping for a Sprint

[lookin4support]

Had to swap cars with her today. This was set up almost a week ago and done without any personal contact. I just dropped mine off and took hers while she was at work. She even texted this morning to find out what time I was coming so she could have her stuff out of it before I got there.

So, when I get in the car, the mirror on the driver's side is way off. I reached for the adjustment switch, which is on the console, and right next to it is a church bulletin from this past Sunday. Considering where she has been concerning her relationship with the Lord, I was shocked. I immediately started praising God for the work he is doing in her life.

This from above is why I believe this is such a watershed moment.

The death of our son has caused her to question the very basis of her belief system. As a result, she has made some choices she wouldn't have made prior to that. It is hard to explain, but I was where she is now with her faith and you rationalize why you should be able to do what you want. In the end, I think she will come to her senses.

I mentioned earlier how hard it was to not know what they were thinking, and it almost seemed like this was set up to make sure that I saw it. I know it may seem like one small thing, but my prayers have been for God to soften her heart toward him because I sincerely believe that will be the first step toward saving our marriage.

Praise God!
