[QUOTE=Karen;8216]My husband left me on January 19th 2008 the day before my birthday. I came here because I had no one else to turn to. I recieved MANY prayers from total strangers who immediately became very supportive, and prayed very beautiful prayers for me. After my husband left, I was not ready to give up on my marriage, and I turned to God for answers and for help. The more I prayed each day got easier, and the pain I felt began to ease. everytime I felt depreesed I read my bible, and prayed. I prayed for my husband as well and decided that whatever happens "God has the FINAL say". I stop calling my husband, who would never respond or talk to me and starting focusing on getting myself together. About two(2) weeks ago my husband started calling me wanting to work things out. I told him that I had tuned my life over to God and that he should include him in his life as well. As of this past Sunday my husband has returned and we decided that the only way that the marriage would work if we included God in our lives and our marriage. So far we are okay, and everyday is getting much better. I would like to say a special thank you to all those who prayed for me. I would also like to say that whatever pain you are feeling , whatever sickness that you are going through and whatever crisis that you are dealing with ..GOD has the final say!!![/QUOTE]



It's nice to know that GOD has the final say in all things. Even without your husband there, you had the faith and trust in GOD to take over for you and look at the miracle HE blessed you with. Because of this whole thing, your marriage will be far better because you both have decided together that GOD is your Source even above one another. Deep down joy doesn't necessarily mean absence of pain and heartache. Only "hopelessness" causes depression, but anyone whose #1 Source is Christ always has hope and faith in any situation because GOD is all powerful and can do anything. GOD's blessings and peace surround your marriage and protect it from the plans of the enemy. GOD bless and CONGRATULATIONS!!
