I just want to thank everyone for the prayers. My husband and I are still trying to decide what to do (well he is). I pray God will lead him in the right direction and we will be living back together soon and have a happy marriage where God is always present and first in our lives. my husband has alot of struggles going on in his life so please pray for him and for Satan to stop tempting him and pray for our marriage. Thank you so much.

Dear Praying Wife, I want you to know that you have been in my prayers this evening. I know that God is good and that he honors prayer. Thank you for your prayers, also. I have been praying that your husband will seek the Lord, also. I know that God's plan for us is always bigger than we can ever imagine. I also have seen that many times we see, after the fact, just how wonderously he has been working in our lives. I pray that the Lord fills all the places in your life that are unfulfilled, that his refining of your life will be a testimony for others when his plan is complete. Sometimes I wonder how this can come in my own life, as the turmoil and pain is certainly not something that others can envy. I did catch a small glimpse of what he has done for me when one of my bosses made a comment about my life not so long ago. He is aware of my situation as it has been impossible to keep secret. He was discussing a co-worker's negative attitude and he said "You, of all people have had a difficult time of things, and yet you do not wear it as a badge and inflict your pain on others." I say this to attest to the fact that the Lord has truly done something in me as I was not even aware of this perception. I saw things completely differently. More and more, I am trusting in the Lord and believing that his hand is upon my life. The Lord has shown me great mercy and love. We just have to keep believing that he is in control. Oftentimes it seems as though the enemy is striking such blows towards us, but he is defeated. I know that I do not deserve the Lord's love, I am so very human and susceptible to the situations around me. But he looks at our hearts and he knows us as he desires us to be. He is an awesome God. I have a firm belief that he is alive, in control, and works in our lives. Sometimes it is just to wondrous that he loves us. I think King David made a statement to that effect. Thank you so very much for your prayers, this sight has been a true godsend at this time in my life. A way to fellowship with others who are where I am and certainly an answer to prayer.
