Power of Prayer...........This is Worth the Read!

[Lorie1964]

I wanted to chime in and say that God speaks to me, and he has for years. I will say that I listened to him most of the time! The day H was introduced to me, the thought went through my head that This would be my Husband. I thought it was weird at first but then soon realized that God was speaking to me. Though I did nothing about it, and let God work in my life, I did marry the only man God plainly told me who would be my H. I had previously been engaged twice before.

There are many other times God has spoken to me and I know I did not listen. Especially the past two years, I can look back now and see how my H and I both became complacent in our relationship with God. H now says he was never that religious, though he converted to Catholicism on his own and then his parents converted years later. He said he converted because he loved my faith and the Catholic Church. We had been very strong and involved in our faith for the majority of our 20 years together. Though the last two years as our daughter was becoming so busy with being a teen and activities with high school, we did not make it a priority.

From the very beginning that H left I have heard God clearly tell me "patience" and "He will restore my marriage" so I take this very seriously and pray. I feel that God brought us together and He will bring us back together. I just have to wait for His time and not mine. I pray about everything. Like last week I had the urge to change the locks on the house because we were going to be out of town and I did not want H to come in and take stuff while we were gone. By the end of the week, I felt God telling me to not change the locks. Things in the house were just stuff and not important. So, I did not change the locks. My neighbor texted me on Sat night saying H had been at the house. I was a bit nervous to come home and find things gone, but you know what? He didn't take a thing except his mail and he left me a Mother's Day card. God is showing me He is working my H. I am so thankful to God, because I am sure H would have been so mad if I had changed the locks.

I am at so much peace in leaving my marriage in God's hands that I am very happy most of the time. I do have my sad moments still because I miss H so much. I do have angry moments but I ask God to take them from me. I only want to do His will.

Please pray for us Glam!!
