husband likely moving out

[GodsStudent]

Still staying the course.....My husband is now clean more than a month and still waiting to go to the Christian rehabilitation program. They will give us two weeks notice when his time comes, so for now, we expect it will be at least two more weeks, maybe more, but he is doing very well.....and God is with us every day !!!

[Jay Ross]

It is great news that you bring as you all stay the course of pressing into the loving embrace of God and letting Him do the repairing work in all of your lives.

Shalom

Hi Jay: Thank you as always for your encouraging words. My husband got the call yesterday and we are now preparing for his departure. It's very encouraging to see him so excited about going to spend this time with the Lord and those who will work with the Lord to draw my husband close to Him.

[ToledoDebbie]

GodStudent: I will be praying very hard that this special program will give your husband the help he needs to overcome his struggles. Praying for you too!!

Dearest Yeshua,

Your timing is perfect for them. May You use this program to transform their lives for good. Grow their faith. Heal his addictions. Strengthen their marriage and relationship with each other. Thank You for Your provision for all these things in their lives. Amen.

Lord, may this time be a tremendous benefit for him to draw close to You and to strengthen him in living free from harmful drugs. In Jesus name

[GodsStudent]

for all of you for your prayers. I am so thankful to my FP Family for the many years (thusfar) of loving fellowship.

I am SO EXCITED to see my husband off, in a very special way. When my husband was gone before, I had very special and close time with the Lord. Once my husband returned, we were inundated with the responsibilities of life, work, etc., and while I spend some amount of time each day with the Lord, His Word, His Work, etc.....it has not been the same as that time it was just Him and me, before.

Believe it or not, I am really looking forward to the next 4 months when I can be in solitude with Him again. There are many changes in our lives and I want to pray about and over many things while I have quiet time for just me and the Lord....to reassure myself that my life is moving in the direction He wants it to move.

My husband is so enthusiastic about going now. He's been clean since the first week in April, so this is by far no longer about getting him "off drugs"....as a matter of fact, this program expects this to have been done long before you arrive there. This program teaches from the scriptures to ensure a walking, living, talking relationship with the Lord which, by default, will keep all people clean and free of any form of mind or mood altering addiction.....

Hubby and I are going to spend a few days together before he enters the program....I guess you call that time vacation, but to me, it's going to be very special....since we will be separated from each other for so long thereafter.

I am very excited about all that is going on with us these days.

I am so happy for you and your husband and will be praying for you both as he leaves for this rehab program. May it be a time of spiritual renewal for you both and that your marriage will emerge stronger than ever. What a long and winding road it has been, I will continue to lift your family up in prayer.

God bless you!

I knew when I started this thread a while back that as long as I stuck with the Lord, nomatter what the results, the outcome would be that I landed on my feet......because the Lord have PROVEN to me time and time again that He loves me and will provide for me, take care of me, and make a way out of no way.....THAT is why I started this thread....to provide a living witness and testimony that COULD NOT be disputed or denied....because the daily journey is documented for all to see.

So many times we have so many reasons to NOT trust the Lord to carry us through if only we go to Him, interact with Him and ask Him to help us get where He wants us to be (which is always to our benefit even if we can't see it beforehand).

I am so happy to have this thread for people to remind themselves to have FAITH......it's a big deal.....

Love you RT, and thank you for your continued friendship and support.....YOU ARE AN AWESOME SISTER IN CHRIST
....and when I get back from dropping hubby off, I'd like us to "catch up!"

Hi Lisa,

Just thinking about you, wondering how things are going? Praying that God is continuing His work in your husband's life and your own.

I hurt my knee....hurt it pretty bad as it turns out.....so my husband has come home early from his 4 month program to care for me. He is a NEW PERSON. While he was there, he told me he got saved, and boy did he! The entire way he lives is changed....he doesn't use curse words, he listens to gospel and I catch him reading his bible all the time....and he's such a pleasure to be around all the time....not moody anymore.

Things are truly going wonderfully for us now. The Lord has done a mighty work in my daughter, my husband, me and our collective family. Its so great to be able to testify to this.

I saw a knee surgeon who said my knee was so damaged that it cant be repaired but will need to be replaced, so now I am waiting to see the surgeons who replace knees. They are so far behind I don't have an appointment until November 30th. As I learn more, and closer to the time, I do intend to ask you all to pray me through this process, too......I believe in prayer as the ULTIMATE way to live in all ways.

Thanks to all of you for praying our family through to these break throughs!

[Resurrection Torchlight]

Thanks for the update. Sorry to hear about your knee, but so glad to hear that things are going so well with your family. What awesome news! Our God is a mighty God! It has certainly been a long difficult road but the journey has brought forth such wonderful fruit!

Praise God!

I ?????? a little lost for words

It is good to hear how the Lord has honoured your prayer of drawing your whole family to Himself in His loving Embrace.

The Lord is telling me to keep believing in the outcome of my original prayer for you and has not given me any further words to add to it for you, even though you have hurt your knee such that you need a replacement artificial knee to overcome the damage that has happened to it.

So thank you Lord for your continuing work in honouring my original pray for Lisa and her family. May my belief in you continue to grow as it is growing in Lisa.

Lisa may you see God's continuing handiwork in your circumstances and that it is God's way of restoration in all things for you and your family.

Shalom

Oh my goodness!!! Praising God for the healing in your family and salvation for your hubby!

Dearest Yeshua,
Thank you for the healing and the love You have brought into their family. Lord, thank You for the salvation and spiritual growth. I pray that Lisa's knee will be able to wait until the surgery. Please keep her surrounded with lots of good help for the daily tasks. I pray that the best surgeon will take care of her quickly and completely. Keep hubby sober and on track with health and wellness. May this family continue to grow closer to You each and every day. Thank You Lord. Amen

Hey GS,

Just wondering how things are, haven't seen many posts from you lately, and I sent an email to you too. I pray everything is okay and really hoping that your hubby is sticking with his new found freedom in Christ. I know your business has taken a hit lately too, just want you to know that I am thinking of you and praying for you and your family.

Hi RT:

Wow, I changed email addresses and didn't even notice I had an email from you.....I am going to respond to your email and I am SO SORRY....also need to make sure I send you my new email.

I dont post long posts here (or anywhere) anymore because the RSD has moved into my arms and hands so that typing is rather painful for me and causes my arms to hurt, too. I am trying to save my hands for doing my job, because I can't stand the idea that I couldn't work and would need government disability....so I don't type long messages often to save my hands.

My hubby is doing so great. I can't say enough good about America's Keswick and most especially the Lord and the wonderful redeeming work He did in my husband's life and our daughter's life, and my life, too. Things are really going well in our family relationships....our family is so much stronger than ever before.

Yes, our work has taken a turn for the worse, though. Corporate America has honed in on our industry and is competing with us by undercutting what was actually a very fair fee for services we offered. I know the only way they can do that is to offer inferior work, because we never got rich doing our work.....only made a living. At the end of the day, this is going to backfire on all of them, because mistakes cost money in our industry....but it will have to unfold as it will and until that day comes, we all have to do with what we have and look at new ways to supplement our income (lost work translates into more time to work on other things, ultimately). In this situation, I can see how all are going to brought to one level playing field, as far as incomes and so forth. I am really seeing the writing on the wall for how it will all crash...combining healthcare, taxes, cost of living increases, etc.....we are going broke, all of us, just maintaining our monthly liabilities....
It's all good, though....I don't live for this world or what it has to offer....I live for Christ, and honestly look forward to the day when we are with Him.....till then....I am occupying, and nomatter whether I do it with a lot or a little, I am happy!

[Resurrection Torchlight]

Glad to hear from you, sorry about the RSD and its impacts on your life and health also sorry to hear that your business is suffering. But you are right, we don't live for this world, but are storing up treasures in heaven, and I am so glad that your husband is doing so well and that your family is reaping kingdom benefits!!!

I look forward to your email, when you feel up to it of course

God bless you, I still pray for you regularly
