Thought more might post their prayers if I got this up on Monday instead of 5:00 Tuesday.<P>I praise the Lord, that He is God and is sovereign, El Elyon, The God Most High. El Elyon is the name for God that establishes Him as the ruler of all the universe. <P>"Then I praised the Most High; I honored and glorified Him who lives forever. For His dominion is an everlasting dominion, and His kingdom endures from generation to generation." (Danial 4:34).<P>Amen

I am struggling with my homework assignment from Pastor to "embrace" the feelings that I have. The discouragement I feel in living with a narcisstic person, knowing that God is in control and trying to balance everything. I feel like I am in a plastic bag and the air is getting thin. I rebuke the lies and the thoughts in my head with the truth of what I know is right and yet, being a claustrophobic person, I am choking to breathe. I know He will work it out to my good and yet, resting in Him is more of a desire to hide there forever. Guess I am heading for withdrawal again-conflict is so exhausting.<p>[This message has been edited by SueB (edited November 14, 2000).]

My prayer request would be to have God's presence with my H and I tonight as we go thru the Love Buster's Questionairre together. We did the Needs last night and that went well but we both felt wierd afterwards, H was very distant from me and because we are separated I went to leave and he got all pouty and mad at me because I wouldn't stay, well he was the one that asked me to leave and I am not ready to be back yet. We have spent a lot of time together even a long weekend away this past weekend and all went good, not excellent but good which is a large improvement from a couple months ago. I guess I would like prayer for wisdsom in talking with H and also for the strenght to do a good Plan A with him and I also pray that H would join in 100% with this MB plan. Thanks all!

Hi My prayer reruest is that I can make it through all this and that my marriage will survive. I have lost my job 3 weeks ago and have not found anything else. I sit here crying cause all I want is for my H to walk through that door and help my S and I. I need him more then anything right know. I told him over the phone today that I still love him and I need him so much. I have not told him that for ever. God I do not want a Divorce Please Help. Your prayers mean the world to me and i need one bad.

I think I've asked for this before in similar wording but it seems to be the thing that keeps tripping me up and so I ask again. You know how much of a defender I am for the Word of God. I have studied it for years and really am a watchdog concerning interpretation etc. BUT...I continue to make my h feel as if he doesn't know anything and that I am challenging him when we discuss scripture. This is not intentional and in fact I have been trying for many months to be aware of this tendency. Yet, my h continues to feel hurt and belittled. Please pray that we may overcome this problem. I want so desperately to be able to share the Word of God with my h and I need his input. After all God choses to direct the husband when it comes to spiritual matters and I consider my h the spiritual head of the home.<BR>Thanks so much for your prayers......Taj

Praises and thanksgiving for blessings and answered prayers. Thanks for the many friends and kind strangers who have blessed our lives this last week.<P>Request for the Holy Spirit to touch my H's soul tomorrow at the memorial service. That he may be brought to a feeling or knowledge of God's love.
