Thank you so much for your prayers. The Lord is working in his life - he went to church with me today, the first time since our son was baptized 14 years ago! PTL!

I can only return the favor. You will be in my prayers. I seem to be doing alot of that lately. I'm not giving up yet or losing my faith. Neither should you. Not if you thinks it's worth it. May God give you strength and peace.<BR>Bless you.

AW,<P>I do understand the effects of alcohol and the destructiveness it causes from the perspective of being a sister. I watched my brother destroy himself and his family due to his addiction and I truly feel for you on this. I will pray for you and your H. <P>Dear Father<BR>Heal this man from his addiction and bind the demon of alcohol that is presently trying to destroy him and his precious family. Help his wife and give her strength during this time of turmoil. Put your hands on this coulple and this marriage that Satan is trying to destroy. Give H the strength to fight the evil that is surrounding him. He needs you right now as much as AW does.<P>Please kick Satan out of their lives as he has no authority over them. Only you do, Dear Father. Please be with them, live in their hearts and in their lives. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen. <P>I am glad your H went to church with you. This is a wonderful step in the right direction. I will continue to pray that H will open his heart to God and allow the healing to begin.

thanks D2 so much for your prayers! Its been pretty much a roller coaster ride lately, he doesn't drink much for a few days, is nice, then he gets drunk and is mean and nasty to me. The good that is coming out of this is that I am slowly learning to ignore his negative outbursts when he's drunk and still love him. You all are in my prayers.

AW...I'll be praying for you & your family. I know what it's like to live with an alcoholic H. I'm glad that he went to church. He must have heard/felt God talking through him.

Thank you all so very much for praying for my husband and me. He has been nice to me for most of the last week. I have a praise report too. Praise and glory to God for speaking to my husband's heart so that he would attend counseling with me with the pastor of my church. Thank you again for your prayers, please keep praying for us. You all are in my thoughts and prayers each day.
