It feels so great! I walked around the seaport foe a while and enjoyed the sunshine. I even read the paper. I met h for a quick walk around the block. We have another date Sat night. He told the ow we had a date last weekend. I guess she blew a cork!! He can't stand when she goes basistic like that. Truthfully I was feeling guilty for a bit yesterday. I know how it feels. But he is my h and if God gets us back together than that is the way it is meant to be. He said I seem changed. More confident. He said he also feels a bit of a fool, having moved out and all. I said it was good for both of us in the end. I know it is so hard for hime to think about ending it, but God is in control. He called me this morning at 7:30 just to say hi. I was so surprised.. So the school year started in total upheavel, maybe it is ending in healing. We still have a long way to go. He hasn't ended it yet. I really wan to just have fun this weekend. I have to think og something. I don't want to rehash everything!!! <P>So, I am going to get off line in a minute and get caught up with you ladies on the Bibnle study. I believe I posted my answers for the first two questions last time we started..<P>Father, I thank you so much for being there to get me through these last two weeks.. I thank you for the kind words of support from these ladies. Lord, How awesome You are. And when we really focus on You that awesome leads to awe!!! Thankj You Jesus. Thank You for this forum and these sisters in Christ. Amen.

Wow Hw-<BR> What miracles are happening for you!<BR>I can't even express how joyful and hopeful I am for you!!This is incredibly wonderful news!Praise the Lord.It just keeps getting better and better!!!<BR>What blessings!<P>I haven't posted for a while,<BR>I have had company from up north visiting for the last part of my vacation, and we were busy.<BR>I am out of the slump I was in last week.<P> She was so encouraging and helpful- we've known each other for 30 years.<P>I'm happy to report that I have given notice at my job and will begin my new job in next week--- making double what I am making now, and may also have a part time job along with it---a chance to make such good money, which is needed with this mortgage to be able to help H with it.I'm sure this will make him look at me differently (not necessarily with a new heart unless God does a quick miracle)when he finds out,because as of now, our situation has not changed other than it has become easier for me to talk to him on the phone.<P>I feel like I am starting a new life.<P>Things are really looking up at this point---The Wellbutrin is taking effect,<BR>I'm getting out of a- going nowhere job- accepting the miracles God is doing in my life, trusting and turning H completely over to Him, being convinced that God is working on placing believing Christians in his path, instructing him in his sleep,placing the desire in his heart to give our marriage a second chance......<P>It is doubtful, but I keep praying that he'll come home. (The house is being isted next week--so why would he move back in....)<P>Knowing now that whatever happens I will survive and life does have meaning and purpose through our Lord, that with His help, I have beat the overwhelming fear that I would have to die or go crazy...<P>Praise God, and keep praying, expecting and accepting!<BR>Joy

hw - wow you are awesome! You're done!!! Praise God! But we all knew you'd do it. I am soooo happy for you. What a relief, huh. You will be so happy you've done this. Going back to school was one of the best things I ever did. <P>JoyNicole - {{{{{{{{{{{{{{JoyNicole}}}}}}}}}}}<P>I am so happy to hear from you! I was beginning to wonder if you had left us for good! You've been in my thoughts and prayers a lot though. It thrills me to hear that you are doing better. I thank God and praise Him for being with you. Your faithfulness and positive attitude are such a blessing. I can feel the rays of sunshine that are eminating from you all the way down here in Texas! Congratulations on the new job!!!!!! Yippee! Of course we knew God would work all this out for you huh. Maybe you'll get to keep your house after all.....<P>I think my H just pulled in the driveway so I better get off here. I need to post an update for you all and will do so later tonight. Things might be kind of tense around here tonight.<P>Love and prayers,<BR>AW

Joy Nicole, how very exciting! Wouldn't it be a trip to sell that house and God give you another even better one that you can easily pay for with this new job. Sounds like Jeremiah 29:11 is really coming to life for you right now. Praise you Father!<P>

Thank you everyone. It does feel good to be done for the year. I am taking a couple of summer courses but without the field work at the same time, it has to be easier.<BR>So now Power of a Praying wife chapter one. I'll have to get caught up.
