Dawn and Susanna 3 years ago my husband of 12 years up and left me and our 4 daughters. It was the most devastating time of my life. You know how you think that it could never happen to you. I was the only one praying, full time job, full time mother, full time wife, I was just full time everything. We even got a divorce and a week after our divorce he married the woman he left us for. For a week I couldn't do anything to or for myself or my girls. I thank God for my mother and my sisters that got me out of my bed and prayed with me, read God's word with me, and praised God with me. God is the answer. In spite of, I still loved my husband and wanted it to work. But I first worked on ME! God wanted my attention. Well ladies to make a long story short, my husband and I are remarried, he's come to know the Lord as his personal savior, he's a better husband, father, and friend. Sometimes God takes us through to get us where He wants us to be. I could not have made it without God on my side and it was not an easy road. May we all stay focused on the Lord. God bless everyone!

I'm still working on things, but I wanted to reassure you that your outlook is right on. Sometimes all we can do is look after ourselves. I made the mistake however, of tyring to take care of myself, by myself. I failed and still do sometimes to ask God to help and guide me each day. I finally figured out that God wants to guide me and carry me through these tough times. He is the only thing that ever truly helps me. I hate that humans are so flawed, but I'm so grateful that God is here to guide and help us despite our flaws. There is nothing you can do but pray for your husband. Please take care of yourself. I will pray for you. You will get through this. God bless. Dawn,

I have justed moved out my home from a 11 year marriage. My husband has filed for divorce and I have struggled with this decision he has made. I have let taking care of myself become a low priority and as a result I am physically, emotionally and spiritually drained. Two nights ago I had come to a place that if I didn't get a grip on my life I would have an emotional breakdown. I began making a plan to take care of myself. From that point on and I realized the number one thing I can do for myself is spend time in God's word every day. It is the one thing that will give me the strength to go on. It is because of his love and word that I can go on each day while not knowing what tomorrow brings. I pray that all women come to know about God's love and how his word will and can feed their souls This holds so true to my heart right now. I have justed moved out my home from a 11 year marriage.

Thank you for your encouraging prayer. I think its always good to keep God's Word at the center so we don't loose our distraction and the calling that God has for each of us. I think the best thing is continualling laying aside our selfs to live each day in Him. Thank you again. Rachael Shirley,

On one of these four Sundays we will celebrate Hope. It is a gift that we receive as we wait for God's will be be revealed. If we appropriate Hope each day, we live in anticipation of what God is going to do, and the people and circumstances that He will provide in our lives to bless us. Hope deferred makes the heart sad. If we can acept Hope as a gift from God each day, we will look forward to His blessed promises. It will soon be time for us to begin the Advent Services in our church.
