Busy, Stressful times.


 


I am not going to go into a lot of detail, but suffice it to say,  we are under attack as a family.  It has really drawn me closer to the Lord.  I have been having such sweet times of fellowship with him.  It is exciting to watch and yet scary all at the same time.


 


Have you ever been so close to God you feel his presence?  What peace and joy it brings.  About a month ago I realized that God wants to speak to me.  I have never had the prayer life that I know I should.  I started to read what I could on prayer and just reach out to God.  I could feel Him the moment He came near.  Draw nigh to God and he will draw nigh to you.  I told my DH that I was grabbing a hold of the hem of God's garment and I did not want to let go.  The Lord's timing is perfect because he knew just how much I would need him.  I do not know how I would be getting through all of this except that I know that God has PUT me here and he will cover me with his hands.  He is protecting me.  It has brought a peace to our home that we have never known before.  I am a different mother and wife, and it has been a blessing to my family.


 


I also have gotten alot of council and have determined to be a wife to my husband before anything else.  That has also calmed our home.  Knowing who you are and what you need to do brings such a peace.


 


Blessings,


Mrs. B

You know how it feels then to sit in His lap and hear his voice tenderly say " You my daughter are worthy, You are loved, You are Beautiful, I love you!" What a blessed it knowledge and assurance. Those are words I need to hear [yours may be different] they just melt your heart and your spirit rises to another level as if you will fly into the place where He resides. What peace beyond our understanding. Thanks for sharing and God's all cover you as you become as He is. Blessings Always, rilda

Good to see you back on the blog roll! I have been praying for you!


I will continue to pray for you and your family...I have noticed that the closer you draw to God, the more it feels like the enemy attacks more.


I am interested to find out what book you read about prayer. I am lacking in that area...I do pray, but not like I should!!! My favorite book is "Raising Lambs amoung the Wolves" by Mark Bubeck...it is about praying for our children....


Blessings and prayers, Kelly

Hey you! Its Ann. I just wanted to tell you that it took me 7 years to learn that I need to be a wife to my husband. Don't think I'm crazy but it took a book named "The proper care and feeding of husbands" by Dr. Laura. I don't always agree with her views but this book saved our marriage. I actually purchased it on audio books and downloaded it my ipod and listen to it at work. Everyonce in a while when I feel as if i'm becoming selfish or frustrated I listen to her book and it just brings me back to who I need to be for my husband. Since I have seen a new light, it seems as if we have drawn so much closer to God. there is a huge difference in how we approach a situation. God has been so good to us and we now are able to see His neverending Blessings! I am praying for you and your family :) Love, The lees
