Sue B,<BR>Thanks for the new name. I had been playing with the idea for a while, but hadn't been inspired to settle on a new name...plus, my old password was so easy! But you are right.....I am anything but empty now. I am full of faith and love, I am full of hope, I am full of contentment with my marriage (even security, if you can believe it) and at 35 weeks, I am OVERLY full with this precious new baby girl. <P>I intend to still be here weekly for the prayer group because I discovered that you can't call on God for help then walk away until the next crisis. I pray we won't ever go through the trauma we went through this summer, but all marriages have bumps in the road, and I know that as pressures increase and routines become ruts I will fall back into old patterns of thinking. And H will be distracted from time to time, and I'm sure dark suspicions will cross my mind. And besides, everyone here has been so helpful to me, that I want to be sure that I add my prayers to yours for the problems that you all are facing. Know that I will be praying for a miracle for each of you.<BR> I will let you know when my precious bundle arrives! It won't be long now. Oh, and for those of you who have been with me from the start....I received my other miracle! I have all the $ I need now to stay out with my baby for the full 12 weeks allowed by the Family Medical Leave Act. I am so looking forward to that time at home getting to know my new daughter and being able to build this little family with my husband.<P>My love to you all,<BR>Kim<BR>(formerly emptyinside)<P>

Kim, You are truely emptynomone!!! This is wonderful.<BR>I am so overjoyed. Please do tell us when that little girl arrives. We will continue to pray for yoiu and your family and don't forget to pray from the power of the praying wife. They have one for parents also.<P>Father,<BR>You do answer prayer and your works are greater than we can ever imagine. Thank you Lord, today for the restoration of this marriage and the impending birth of Your most precious gift. We praise You that you are always there and that we can run to You when we need extra care. But instill in us such a love for you that we want to stay safe within Your love from day to day. In Jesus name, Amen.

emptynomore - what a great name. I am rejoicing with you over your great news. May God continue to bless you and your family over and over. Praise God! Yes, please pray with us whenever you get a chance, and be sure to let us know when your precious baby is born. Most of all, keep your eyes and heart focused on Jesus.<P>Dear Lord, I praise You in the highest for emptynomore's testimony. All glory to You Father. Thank you for this beautiful restoration!!! Lord, I pray that the other praying wives will soon be able to rejoice loudly about their restored marriages, all because of the work You are doing in our lives. Thank You Lord for Kim's desire to share her good news. We are so encouraged by the answers to prayer Lord. IJN I pray AMEN

YUP! Definitely fits your personality better! Keep growing girl. I am so excited for you!<P>I will try to get more of Chapter 3 questions up today, so that we can still keep that part going in our study, because I do see how all these things are working together.<P>Hugs from Maryland!<BR>
