"A cord of three strands is not easily broken"..... I think this may be the verse you were thinking of:<P><B>"Though one may be overpowered by another, two can withstand him. And a threefold cord is not quickly broken." Ec 4:12 </B><P>This is from the commentary on this verse from Crosswalk.com:<P>"one--enemy. <BR>threefold cord--proverbial for a combination of many--for example, husband, wife, and children (Proverbs 11:14); so Christians (Luke 10:1, Colossians 2:2,19). Untwist the cord, and the separate threads are easily "broken."<P>Father, I come before You asking Lord that this family, a cord of three, is never broken. Lord, protect them with a hedge of thorns, never letting Satan separate the threads. Lord Jesus, let them be in unity before You and with You. <P>Thank You Lord for your never ending love and caring for us. Thank You Lord that Jesus shines brighter and purer than all. Father, I praise Your Holy Name. With You Lord, nothing is impossible. <P>Lord, instill Your desires in the heart of ohmy_marie and her husband. Lord, turn their hearts to You. Lead them surely and steadfastly to the narrow gate that leads to righteousness. <P>Lord, I ask for understanding and a gentle heart for her husband; bring ohmy_marie closer to You. Help her Lord to become the Godly wife and mother You want her to be. Father, I pray that You order ohmy_marie's husband's steps, her steps, and their childrens steps and direct their paths. <P>Thank You Lord for your promise that what God has joined together let no man separate. Glory to You Lord Jesus. In the name of your precious son, AMEN.<BR>

I will pray for all of you as well, Marie.<P>------------------<BR>"They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength. They shall mount up with wings as eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint." Isaiah 40:31

I think I make three! Praying for you and your family, that you will find the peace you are searching for. Your end quote, pertaining to the mustard seed, was a topic of one of my Sunday school lessons for my kids about 6 weeks ago. It works! God doesn't require much faith but he does require it to be sincere faith. Stand on it. You can't go wrong! God bless..
