Special Prayer Request

Today was an awesome day for me. I am praying that it is a start to a new found love. My husband Todd went to church this morning. Even though the preacher was preaching to Todd, he was not upset when I got home. I have been saved for a little over 11 years and even though it has been a struggle in the past couple of years I have not given up on Todd's Salvation or MY GOD. I was nervous about Todd being there listening to the message, but I knew that God had sent to church this very day to hear this very message. Preacher Allen preached on blockades to heaven. He touched on drugs. I just hope that Todd will go back next week.

My prayer request is to lift Todd up, and to keep Alex & I from getting our hopes up. We truly love the man that we know that Todd can be.

Lord, keep me close & guard my heart from being broken hearted.

South Florence Baptist Women's Banquet

Last night was an awesome night. We had our first annual Women's Banquet and it was truly a blessing to me & my mother-in-law. As you read yesterday's post about our home life. The banquet last night truly showed me what I need to do through the testimony of Cindy Beard. I could feel the Holy Spirit of God all over Cindy. I could feel the Holy Spirit of God all through that fellowship hall. I get a blessing out of my Mary's Heart WOM group every month. Through all of my struggles that I am going through in my life today I realize last night that He is first & foremost in my life. I appreciate the prayers of my SFBC Bloggers.

My Life at home

I am back to my website with lots to say. The visit to Georgia was nice, I really enjoyed visiting with my family. Since I have been back alot has been going on in my home life & it think it has alot to do with my Spiritual life. My Spiritual life is not where I would like for it to be & I am in the process of working on. Todd & his drugs are getting worse. I am getting to the point that I do not know how to handle him any more. Every day is different, One day home can be nice, watching a movie together. But then the next day Todd can be aggravating someone for money. Do not let him have the car because by the time I get home from work something we have can be in the pawn shop for me to get out the next pay period. I took a couple of days off from work & you would of thought Todd & I could go eat lunch together or go to Wal-Mart together without any problems.
But that weekend I had to pay to get my car out of a ditch, because Todd decides to go partying all night long. The sad thing about this way of life that Todd has chosen for hisself, Todd was raised in church all of his life. So he knows that he is living for the Devil at this point in his life. As for me, I was not raised in Church & at this point in my life I am struggling with my Christianity. Does that make sense to anyone, because it does not make sense to me.
South Florence Bloggers out there please pray for me & my family. I am looking on the positive side of all of this is that I know that I have Jesus with his arms around me taking care of me & my daughter.

I am Bible Study-Lesson 1

I finally got to the I am Bible Study. I think that I am going to truly enjoy this bible study. Bloggers out there please pray for me in my new adventure. I have alot to learn & take in.

My questions for lesson 1 were:
Am I emotionally & spritually healthy? I can honestly say "No" to both of those questions. I am ashamed to say that my spritual life is not healthy at all. I am working on this part of my life & I need alot of prayers. My emotional health is not healthy because I never know from one day to the next what I have to put up with at home.

My next question was Do you have "yes" spirit? I do not think that I can have a yes spirit if I am not spiritually healthy. But I am working on that also.

Please pray for me & my family.

I am Back

I am back from my trip & what a trip that was. Before we could even get to Columbia SC we had a flat tire. We stopped in Camden SC to get a tire & after the agrevation & two hours later we were finally back on the road. I had a good visit with my mom. But I can honestly say that I missed being at my home church on Sunday.
