Need Encouragement?
|
Answered prayer
|
|
Hello all,
I just wanted to share of testimony of answered prayer. Yesterday I went to work with a very heavy heart, feeling discouraged and very distanced from my husband. The Lord directed me to share with a lady I work with. She heard my heart and knew my circumstances since she has been through similar ones. Just her listening and speaking positive words of encouragement meant the world. I came home with a fresh perspective.
My husband and I had a blessed evening without our teenage children. This morning I woke, we shared the listening of the DAB and then were able to open our hearts to one another and share how we are both very vulnerable right now and need to treat each other with great sensitivity to give us the strength to keep going and being supportive of one another in the midst of the storm we are weathering.
Praise God for his answers to prayer!!!!

Hi Lisa this is wonderful. God hates strife, Satan loves it. Satan will use a marriage to bring silence and disunity in because we are expressing the most power essence of the Trinity. It is so precious to me that you two had time alone to 'catch up' with eachother. My husband and I are part of a group who hold marriage enrichment camps for couples with or without problems and most of the time the problems are lack of communication. She is hurt, he does not know. or visa versa, Marriage is a friendship, that is your best buddy to share EVERYTHING with knowing that it will stay between the two of you I would like to share this, I have been on the prayer request forum and while I am reading the requests and praying for Word from the Lord regarding everyones situation, I am then reminded of songs, so I type the words out. Well I would like to type this song I started listening while searching the other forums and I got to your message. This is for you two. I have included the link if you want to watch it.
Love is not a place, to come and go as we please
its a house we enter in then commit to never leave
so lock the door behind you, throw away the key, work it out together let it bring us to our knees.
Love is a shelter in a raging storm,
love is peace in the middle of a war
And if we try to leave may God send angles to guard the door
No love is not a fight but its something worth fighting for.
For Some love is a word, that they can fall into
but when they're falling out, keeping that word is hard to do
Love will come and save us if we'll only call
He will ask nothing from us but demand we give our all
