I think that you are doing well. I have seen your faith grow by leaps and bounds not only on your postings here but also on the 4060. Just remember that yes...God is transforming you into the child He created....but there are also times that the restoration has NOTHING to do with whether YOU are ready to recieve His gift....the Holy Spirit is also wooing your H....and sometimes the restoration doesn't take place, even when we feel WE are ready for it because God isn't done with our H. Continue to persevere and trust God's Word, Mermaid. His word DOES NOT return void and everything He is accomplishing within you and your circumstances is to prosper you and not to harm you. Lifting you up, Amy
