Father,<BR>We lift Carol up to You, that You be in the middle of her decisions and that she invite You there. Lord, let Carol read Your word to know what the wisdom is for her circumstances. Lord, You know all about it and You are in control. Give Carol Your peace with her decisions as she prays for Your will to be done. Lord, speak to all others involved and we ask that You go before them all and that Your Holy Spirit touch each person according to Your will for their part in it. We praise You Lord, for always being there and always having time for us. Lord, we do not always see the wisdom of the way You answer our prayers, but increase our faith to accept it. In Jesus name, Amen.

Dear Carol,<P>When I have a troublesome choice, what I do is first work out all my best solutions myself, there may be only two options, but usually there are more. Then in prayer I present each one to the Lord for his affirmation, saying: "Lord, this is my decision. Is it thy will that I do this? Please tell me if it is right." <P>When I get the real affirmation, a warm fuzzy feeling, or a sense of great peace usually, then I recheck the list. The negative choices are empty or confusion. <P>If all choices seem negative, then I know I either have not yet reached the best solution, or that I have my choice, because it isn't that important to God which way I decide, or because God already told me unmistakably what to do and I rejected it for some reason.<P>Dear Heavenly Father, Thank you for being such a loving God and caring so much for us, your children, that you hear and answer our prayers. Please bless Carol with a soft heart, keen understanding and discernment that she will hear thy answer and have a sense of being within thy care. She wants to do thy will. Help her to know the best path. In Jesus' name, Amen.

I'm still in confussion over the decisions I needed to make, One is the divorce has been on hold and the hold is now up, the divorce will have to be either dropped, go forward, or maybe my husband can put another hold on it. The lord blessed me the last time with being able to put a hold on it. My husband told me the other day that he was coming home, but the confussion comes from if he says he is coming home why not come why run to his girlfriend. I know God doesn't like divorce and neither do I. I called my Attorney and I have a appointment on June 21 if something doesn't happen before then, like him coming home. I don't know if or how God wants me to fight this. Satan seems to be trying to get me to just give up. I only want to do God's will and I cant feel God talking. I have prayed for God to direct me. I know God is with me, I have prayed if their is something God wanted me to confess or a sin I need to repent please bring it to my attention God. The other one our daughters took care of for me they bought their Dad a ticket to go to Fla to watch our youngest dance. It will be God's will and work if he goes as my husband doesn't know. Pray with me please. In Jesus name I pray amen.

I'm sorry I haven't responded to you lately. I haven't been on the computer all weekend. My son has been hogging it. We are going to build him his own so he can stay off of mine!<P>I will be praying for you today Carol. You've got some important things weighing on your mind. Even when we feel like we can't hear God talking, He is still right there with us. I know I have felt that way all weekend. I also have to make some decisions regarding our marriage and possible divorce by August 21. We have a court date set for that day. I have asked my H to make the decisions regarding this but so far he has done nothing. <P>Dear Lord, I lift up Brown0674 to You. Please comfort her, and speak to her heart. Please tell her exactly what You want her to do, guide her actions and thoughts today. Help her Lord to make the decisions according to Your will and for Your glory. I pray that You will work a miracle in her husband, bringing him to total brokenness before You. Let his heart be melted towards You and the wife of his youth, Brown. Please be with her each minute of every day, making Your presence known to her. Thank You Lord for your love. IJN AMEN
