Please pray for me<BR>My divorce will be final in ten days. It hurts very badly. Please pray for the Lord to speak to my husband, speak to his heart, mind, and soul.<P>I will continue to study the word, draw closer to the Lord <BR>I feel I will be needing so much comfort as I am very low at the prospect of even though, we have not been living as husband and wife for months. It will truly be over. I must go not as my eyes are blurred with tears.<BR>Petrie<P>I would really like to contact him-but I shouldn't-right? Why does life have to hurt so so so so so much?<BR><p>[This message has been edited by REJECTED (edited April 20, 2001).]

Petrie,<P>My heart goes out to you. I know your pain all too well.Please don't give up. It is not over. God is not afraid of this divorce. It is only temporary if you don't give up hope. God hears your cries Petrie. He knows the desires of your heart. <P>no weapon forged against you will prevail(ISA 54:17)<P>In God's time not ours. Believe!<P>Do you still have an attorney? I know this is a hard one because it is scarey to walk on water. God wants you to depend on Him for everything...trust Him. Read and practice.<BR>Pray and fast...and believe.Fear not!<P>We love you Petrie and share in your pain.<BR>gentle

what God has joined together, let no MAN put asunder...<BR>you will always be one flesh in God's eyes. Lord please lift up our dear friend - hold her close as she goes through this fire. let her know this is only a temporary earthly time in her life. please turn her husbands heart to you and back to his family. <P>please do not contact him - you will be greatly blessed if you do not. God promisses that. put on some good praise music and cry to God. I'm sorry you are so sad - i wish we all could put our arms around you - but if you raise your hands to Him he will hold your hand. <P>10 days is a long time - pray, pray, pray - should God still allow it to go through - he will still come home.

Petrie,<P> P.S.<BR> When God feels you are ready for contact,he will make that possible.There is a reason for no contact now,as God draws you nearer to him. beth

Don't put God on a schedule and don't give up hope!!! Your trial is SO HARD. It can be overwhelming, which is why Jesus is ready to catch you. LET GO and let Him catch you. Use this time to draw closer to the Lord, to help someone who needs you, to do the things you can't do when you are married. Have faith and remember that the Bible says the Lord made the earth in a day and scientists say that day might have lasted millions of years in human time. The God of eternity can't be put on a schedule by us. You might not really get divorced in 10 days if the Lord wants to perform a miracle that day but it isn't up to you. We are all praying for you. You may get a fast miracle or you may get a slow miracle but you will get a miracle if you persist.<P>Jesus, if it is Your Holy will, please prevent this divorce from taking place. Please change her husband's heart as only You can do. Open his eyes, Lord. Let him be horrified by what he is about to do. Remind him, Lord of the vow he took. Bless Petrie profusely for her faith and strengthen it through this fire. Bless all of us who pray for her and stand with her through this so that we may continue to lift each other up. Thank you for all of our trials because we are all so lucky that You have drawn us to You ever closer. You are the Lord of the heavens and the earth, the Creator of the universe. In the name of Jesus Christ, bind up any demons which are attacking Petrie and her husband so that they will return new in their marriage before You. Amen.
