Thanks again for all of your prayers, Christian 737, thank you for looking from my point of view for a minute. I believe that with God, all things are possible. In the state of VA I can not get a divorce until one year of seperation, so I have some time to see God; work his will. My husband is incarcerated and is awaiting trial on the felony arson charge, that will be in April. I have already voiced my opion that I believe his mental state had more to do with the arson then him being negliegent. I will continue to pray with my boys about ours and his situation. I would never be able to replace him because at his best moments he was the best father, friend, husband and spirtual leader. But at his worst moments I lived in fear, total fear of how and when mental illness, drugs and sexual perversions would harm me. I know now that satan was running amuck in our marriage we were never a united front, never standing together to rebuke satan. We depended on each other too much, when one was strong it was the other's day off. I've never believed in divorce and had a hard time even marriage Don (my husband) because I would be his second wife. I just can't believe that this is God's will to have me and our boys live in fear and danager. I don't even know that if and when he gets out that he'll even be able to be around the children due to his danagerous nature. I will keep posting updates, just keep the prayers coming. Thank you and God bless.

I am still praying!

Katrina,
While Don is incarcerated, pray for your marriage and for GOD to create a change that will keep your marriage alive. "Drugs" is a crystal clear sign that the enemy is messing with your marriage, but GOD created Lucifer/satan who was defeated 2000 years ago at the cross when Jesus shed His blood for the redemption of mankind. If your boys are old enough to take your hand and pray with you for daddy and the salvation of your marriage, then do that. Your marriage is worth it. All of us have a bad side, Katrina. If anyone including myself tells you they don't do stuff like that, they are lying to your face. Trust me when I say Pope John Paul II and Mother Theresa are not loved MORE than Don or Charles Manson in GOD's eyes. GOD wants every last human to make it...to overcome the devil and all of his attacks against us and our loved ones and to be with Him in Eternity. Don's life was ordained by GOD. No matter how our human eyes see Don, GOD sees Don and says, "Don, I will NEVER leave you or forsake you. I will be with you, Don, even to the end of time." That's why GOD's love is unfailing, unconditional, unsearchable, and all encompassing. This kind of love goes far beyond the scope of human logic, reason, understanding, and imagination. We refuse to love like that because we are always thinking about our own self-preservation. That's what is normal to us. So if you can, Katrina, you and the boys pray to GOD every night before bedtime that Don's incarceration will change him to a better husband and father all of the time, not only when he's in a good mood. GOD is GOD. Nothing you ask Him for is too big for Him. We will...well, I have actually been praying for your family BEFORE you ever got here, Katrina. Yours is one of the ones I took to church with me to have my Pastor and church pray for. We will continue to pray for your family along with you and the boys. In the mean time, Katrina, remember, your marriage has always been designed to succeed and NOT fail. We love you and the family in Christ, our Saviour. GOD bless til nesxt time.

Thank you, really you guys don't know how compulsively I check this to see if I have any new prayers. It really does help to know others are praying on mine and my family's behalf. I have been doing as well as I can God blessed me with a promotion at my job and a wonderful babysitter for my children. I just found out that I am $20,000.00 in debt and was advised to file a chapter 13 but I think with discipline and the by the grace of God, I may be able to handle most of this on my own. Via settling or whatever. I have court on the 15th for child support and custody agreements. I will see my husband then I won't be able to speak to him but I will see him. Some of our best moments had no words spoken, but we'll see. His court for Arson is on the 24th, which I have yet to be contacted by the commonwealth attorney regarding this. I have called dozens of times to no avail.
Gabriel our oldest is turning 4 tomorrow, he is too smart. He asked me if he could have a new daddy that doesn't burn stuff. I told him, as I fought back tears, that he has two fathers, a heavenly one God and Donnie his only earthly dad and that he was very sick right now but that he loves you very much and is getting help. I allowed his (donnie's)mother to send me a card from Donnie to Gabriel for his birthday. I just hope that brings a smile to his face as he speaks of his father. I pray for him constantly to not lose any of his innocence because of this. Well like I said I have a Birthday tomorrow so there's a lot to do. Thanks again and let me leave in this "The eyes of all wait upon Thee; And thou givest them their meat in due season. Thou openist Thine hand, And satisfiest the desire of every living thing." Psalm 145:15,16.



On another note, please pray that I can see through the deception of people when they come to me openly or privately and pray for me. I feel that I am being preyed upon by people who believe in something quite different from me. They don't announce their beliefs before they try to reel you in and I don't want my vulnerability to be my weakness. So...Dear God I come to you in the name of Jesus please reveal the true motives of all; and of yourself to me as I walk down this wending path to you, ol lord. I do long for something that is not of this world please let only your voice fill that longing. I pray in the name of the father, son and holy spirt. Amen

***Lord be with Katrina, in all things she faces. Let her know what your will is for her life.

***Katrina you mentioned a request for prayer for: Jesus to reveal to you the true motives of all, and that you did not want them to prey on your weaknesses. I offer the following to you for help in this area! *The Bible says that you will know your Brother's in Christ, by their fruits. I pray for Jesus to help Katrina look for the fruits of her Brother's in Christ. The Bible says that we should stay away from people who are not our Brother's in Christ. *Sometimes we have to deal with people who are not our Brothers in Christ. This is a fact of life, but we do not have to have close, and personal relationships with them. If someone is coming to you on the pretense that they want to help you by praying; look to see if they are showing the fruits of your Brother's; and ask yourself are they walking, talking, and acting like a Brother, in all that they do? (These are the fruits of your Brother's!) Heavenly Father help Katrina be able to discern who is her Brother, and who is not. Help her to associate with only her Brother's. Help her to stay on the path that leads to Eternal Life with you.

***I pray for each member of this family, and without prejudice. As all people need Christ, not just the one's who are Christians. They just don't know it.

***Heavenly Father be with this son who is hurting over the loss of his Father, and give this mother the knowlege of how to best help him. I pray this all, and in the name of Jesus, Amen!!!
