Thank you for for your reassuring post. Valerie is on our minds and prayers today. I had a restless night. My spirit was uncertain about some upcoming events. I had a few disturbing phone calls last night. My daughter and her husband are history unless God heals some brokenness in their home. My granddaughter Ashley is crazy about her father, they also have a 3 year old Taylor. It breaks my heart to see them part paths.
But I talked to my son in law over Xmas and he is right with God. My daughter had some Mormons come by to talk with her last year and she has been reading the Mormon bible, according to my son in law. No wonder she is so confused. That is how the enemy operates; there are so often times specific reasons in the spiritual realm where the enemy penetrates the clinks in the armor.
I have a wonderful peace about this. Not that I have given up hope but The Lord told me in that quite voice over XAMS . Greg. "Its not over till I say it's over". Come what may or will . I trust God .
It is my pleasure , and privilege to do so and that is where I find the most comfort. I have seen what this is doing for my son in law.......best thing to ever happen to him. He walks around with the Glory of God on his face. He is so happy in Christ right now it is literally driving him 'bananas'. God has visited his situation; and that visit makes it worth all the other agony he has been through. I counseled with him for many months to show him that in his brokenness, God reveals His Glory. God works best in the bad times.( It's almost like now he has resolved himself to the fact--Lord it's not what I want but if it's what I need,,,,bring it ON !! )
It was , and still is that way in my life, and others as well. I've had the Lord call out to me, Son, Son, please don't cry again. My answer . Lord I just cannot help it . I'm happiest when I cry , because I know you are there for me at those times the most. I, m not crying in brokenness but in the midst of my brokenness.( Does that make sense to you ) ??? My brokenness is not what makes me cry. It is knowing that the Lord is there for me at those times, that so moves me..to tears. In Christ.......gregor |
