Ask and ye shall receive!

My husband has been without a job since the end of April?? or the first part of May??
It is August now,,,,,,do the math!!!

I am almost ashamed of myself,,,,this is when a person's faith should be the STRONGEST!
Of course I have good days and bad days,,,,,,,,But my faith hasnt been very strong throughout the whole thing,,,,,,

I guess this is a "test"?? or a lesson for me to learn???????

Today, it seems my husband is closer than ever to maybe finding a job???
YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SO let's hope and pray that my lesson has been learned!!!!!

At one time through this ordeal, I told my best friend I wish I could just go away somewhere and when all this is over, then I'd come back!!!!

But that is NOT what a marriage is all about! It doesnt work that way!

You know, MAYBE this was a "test" or a "lesson" for MY HUSBAND to learn,,,,and guess what, I am part of this MARRIAGE,,,,,so I have to go through whatever HE goes through!

I cant explain why,,,,,,,but I am sure I dont pray ENOUGH for our situation,,,,,,,It is so much easier for me to pray for other people and other people's situations than for my own!

I recently heard a sermon and it was about Jabez's Prayer,,,,,

1Ch 4:10 And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me! And God granted him that which he requested.

When you pray,,,,,Pray that GOD would pour out HIS Blessings on YOU!!!
Pray that He will broaden your horizons!!
Pray that He will guide you!
Pray that HE will keep you from evil!
and what does the verse say next???
AND GOD GRANTED HIM THAT WHICH HE REQUESTED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WOW!
