Hi Everyone! I need to share this with y'all. For the past couple of months, I have been feeling really discouraged. I have someone in my life who just doesn't care about me, and has been mistreating me. Unfortunately for me, the person is my supervisor. I have been praying to God and asking Him, do you not see what is going on here? There just seemed to be no answer and every day seemed to be a struggle. Well, my family and I took a vacation to the beach. I told God before I left that I needed a sign from Him, that He heard me and saw what was going on, or if He even really cared at all. I woke up early Tuesday morning, and went for a walk on the beach. About 500 feet from shore, there was a school of dolphins swimming and having a blast. They were spinning and showing off. I stood there and watched just struck by the sheer beauty of it all. A man was running on the beach and ran right in front of me. I looked down and saw his footprints in the sand. The poem foot prints came to my mind. The Lord spoke to me and let me know that He did see me and what was going on. Be encouraged. If you are in a difficult situation, God does see you and your circumstances!

Thanks Girls! Y'all are the best.

I totally agree with C. Also, as Christians when we get save (at least in the area where I live) people get scared that God is going to send them to Africa to swat flies (from what I hear we should be so lucky I hear great things are going on over there), but I digress. We think that God is going to make us do something that we detest. God doesn't work like that. He wants us to do what He created us to do, and it will be something that we love to do. We should strive to get to the point where God's heart and our heart are the same. What is your passion? What are you good at? What do you desire to do that you can use to gloriy God? These are just my thoughts. I hoped they helped.

Thanks Y'all! I really appreciate it and need your prayers now! I'm trying to look at the big picture!

Please pray for me y'all! There are some issues I have. If anyone has a Word that would be great. Thanks Y'all!

That is so awesome! Praise the Lord...he is so good to his children!

Father, In the name of Jesus, I pray for my sister. God, you are the creator and maker of our bodies. You know every single cell, every membrane, every bone, every muscle better than any doctor or nurse every could because you created them. Jesus, you know how things are supposed to work in our bodies. I ask that you remove these cells that are there illegally in her because you did not put them there. I speak to that cervix that there will be no cancer or disease there. satan, you have to flee from this sister's body. She has been washed by the blood of the lamb, the son of God, Jesus Christ of Nazareth, and you are not allowed to be there. I pray for every joint in her body, her feet, her back. I command that there will be no pain, no discomfort, no disc slipping, no feet that refuse to fusion. There will be a trip for this sister, she will go back to africa. The enemy can't stop her mission. he can try, but God has the final victory in this situation. There is much work to be done, and satan is fearful...Yes, he's attacking your body to get the focus off of Christ, and on to your pain. He doesn't want you to continue...he's scared like a chicken because he knows you are going to win souls into God's kingdom, you're going to break down strongholds, you're going to deliver people out of oppression and bondage. Even your name he's scared of...Steady Gaze....he knows that is so accurate for you...and what a name it is because your focus is straight and true. God, give this sister the wisdom and guidance she needs. Divine healing for her body that is what we ask in the name of the one and only Jesus Christ. Amen.

HONEY------IT'S HIM THAT DIDN'T MEASURE UP TO YOU!!!! He's the looser in this, not you!

I'm gonna start this off with a quote from my momma that I think is so appropriate to this situation: WHEN SOMEONE SHOWS YOU WHO THEY ARE, BELIEVE THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! CB...this guy is mentally and emotionally unstable. Until he deals with the issues of his abuse, I mean REALLY deal with them, he is not going to be good for anyone. People who do not deal with abuse issues on any level CAN have varying emotions. They can play cute and nice and all that one minute, and that minute can last a long time. Then, they flip. They have so much anger pent up inside of them, and they don't know what to do with it. They get mad easily one minute and flip out. It doesn't matter who it is, who they're hurting...they hurt others because they're hurting themselves, and they're trying to make the pain go away. It could be that he's projecting on you, what he feels about himself because of the abuse, and what it's done to you. It could also be a generational cycle. He could be repeating what he saw his father or father figure do. You never know. Yes, it hurts, a lot. BUT, do not let that man dictate to you who you are anymore. He's said his piece. Wheather he did it one way or another is really irrelevant. What he's done is what he's done. You should NEVER be willing to put up with the addictions, promiscuity and things like that. That is not right. The man is not your husband, it is not your place to stand beside him while he tries to sort out his messed up life. It seems to me like this man was on a mission from the enemy, and not from God. If you are seeking God, and praying for a Godly mate, the Lord will not give you someone who is the complete opposite of what HE wants for you. Consider it a blessing that this happened now instead of after you were married. Immagine what a mess that would've been. Imagine how it would have affected your child. PRAISE THE LORD you are free from this girl. Cry, grieve, get it all out. Meet with your pastor for counseling, do what YOU need to do to get yourself on the path to recovery.

CB, often times that is the beginning of the healing process, just to let it all out. Once you can verbalize all that is pent up inside you, you can begin to deal with it. I can understand in many ways where you are comming from. I dated a guy for 3 years. He professed he loved me, he was active in church. Yet, I wasn't good enough for him. I wasn't enough for him. He would tell me that I was ugly, and then turn around and say he wanted to marry me. He didn't mind having me do sexual things to him, and he would tell me I was pretty during that, but after it was over, he would tell me that it was my fault, that he had sinned. He couldn't be with a woman who was weak spiritually as I was, he wasn't going to carry me around, etc. Yet, I kept doing it because I craved those times when he told me I was beautiful. CB, I tell you all of that to say that I understand in many ways where you are coming from. I agree with the ladies on here. You need to RUN, and RUN FAST away from this man. It's not about what he did or didn't do. It's about YOU. It's about you comming to the father and letting him heal your heart and your spirit. It's about you seeing who you are, and how he created you, and accepting that and loving what makes you u. I still have times that I struggle with that. I have a hard time seeing what others see in me, and I know that part of it is the mind trip that guy sent me on. Yet, the Lord is good, and one day I was in the grocery store, and I picked up an orchid to take home with me. A guy told me that the plant was glad to be going home with me. I looked at him like he was a freak. I turned my head back to the plant, and for a split second, the Lord allowed me to see how radiant it was when I touched it. It glowed. The Lord used that to show me how I radiated to others, and others are glad to be around me and near me. You have so much beauty inside of you. Focus on the Lord and allow Him to be the lover of your soul and bring that out in you. When the right man comes along for you, he will pick up in the flesh, and continue to bring out the best in you as a woman. There are hard times in love, but it's not supposed to be abusive like that. It's not supposed to tear down your self esteem and make you feel bad. God will honor your faithfulness to him. I hope I wasn't to long winded, and that what I've said has been a help to you.

Father, In the name of Jesus, we pray for JBS's father. You know what is going on, and you are our healer. I pray that you will touch his body in the area that needs it, you alone know our bodies better than any doctor, or specialist. I ask that you give this family peace that passes all understanding during this time. In the Name of Jesus Amen!

Praise the Lord...He is such a good God....

I agree with Lola...sometimes God puts us in positions that our flesh doesn't like so we can grow and learn.

You WILL make it through this! The Lord is lining something up for you. It will happen....God is taking care of it all in HIS good timing. I will pray for you sister. Love in Christ.

Excellent word! Yes, we have been talking on here about how it seems the Lord is comming back so soon.
