God Bless all of you.<BR>I just wanted to post because I am losing faith! My H has arrived to the country almost three weeks ago and he did not even call after the conversation we had the day after.<BR>I feel so sad, I ve been praying and reading to the posts anbd the Bible but it seems to me that we have no way back. I will not call (eventhough I need several books from the house) because I was always the one looking and asking.<BR>I feel bad also because a separated woman in my country (Bolivia) (and my small city) is not well viewed and there are many prejudices about.<BR>I know He is faithful to his promises, but I do not know if we were suppossed to be together, we had 5 years and all of them were not very peaceful, how can our marriage be restored if it has never being "well"?<BR>Anyway I feel better posting, thanks to all of your for the hope in your messages.<P>Lenchen

Lenchen,<P>Unusual for me, I don't now really what to say to you to encourage you. Guess just that I hear your concern and i am praying for you. It is hard, but keep your eyes on your Lord. He is there and working.<P>Lord, I pray for this woman. Lord, work in her to draw her into a deeper relationship with you. Lord, work in her husband your will. Help Lenchen to wait while your work is done in both of you. In Jesus name.

Hi Lenchen<BR>I do not even know if you will read this message, it has been several weeks since you posted. But I notice when I am holding to God's word, that is what I have to focus on. The glass is half full, not half empty. I have to remember that I have my breath today, so there is hope for me. When things first occurred between my H and I, my heart seemed to be all shredded up. I had to give that shredded up heart to my Father. He gave me a new focus. I was just reading my Bible too, but then I had to stop and really know that having peace, joy and relief are in the power He has given me. I refused to wallow in self-pity. I stayed around others who could build me up, help me keep my focus on what I should be doing- praying, listening and perservering. Remember, love always hopes, always believes and always perserveres. The darkest hour comes right before the new Day. lol
