Your experience excells, you are seeing right thru my soul. I am praying as you are saying for a miracle to happen in my wife. It is not a bad reason, but none the less is the wrong reason. I do pray for my self to give me strength, wisdom and to make me the man He wants me to be, but for the most part I am worried about W, about my kids. I want her to see what damage she is doing to our boys.
All valid reasons, but like I say, the wrong reasons. I need the relationship between the Lord and me to grow, after that all other relationships with W, kids, parents, brothers will grow.
Starsky, I will focus my prayers for my well being. There is something I believe to the core: "There is no one more important than God, from there, no body is more important than ourselves, because when we are whole, everything around us is in harmony". This belief has been shadowed by my feeling recently, but I need to bring it back to the light, the light of the Lord.
Thanks, Starsky for giving me a better perspective.
