I can remember my mom dying when i was 10 years old. For over 20 years(she's been dead for 28 years now) i wondered why GOD took her home at the age of 32.
Now, I can see how despite losing my mom, i was able to FIND JESUS.
Actually i ran away from Jesus, He Found me... i see now being in Texas (I was in california) how i was able to Meet PRINCESS.
I AM THE BETTER NOW - PRAISE GOD.
I would have to say the day my oldest daughter left home and moved in with her dad. Being a step dad that was something that was very hard. I really believe that I was the cause for the hardship between her and my wife and I really have not forgivin myself for what I said to my daughter. I have since appoligized to my wife and daughter.
I think that experience has strenghten my relationship with my daughter. I know that during that time I trusted GOD that she would move back home and we can get by this experience. Since this happened she did move back home and our relationship has since been better. I am always proud of my daughter and the things that she has accomplished and the things she is doing.
GOD has come through in a big way and I give the glory to HIM in every way.
Frodo here, Why does God allow dissapointments and tragedy in our lives? I feel that if it all went well we would never learn to rely on Him. Most people including christians talk to God more when tragedy hits. I know i have been guilty of this.Out of trials and dissapointments, God gets to reviel his Glory. Quoting Tony Evans God is a junkyard artist. He can take the junk in your life and make it into art. I can make a list of dissapointments in my life. But i prefer to focus on what God has taught me or showed me and blessed me in these times. Dissapointments is just a trap satan uses to get your attention off of the Father and all his works. Noone should focus on dissapointments, because we as a human race dissapointed our maker when we ate the apple!
my husband works out of town most days of the wk. and when he comes home for about 2-3 days, we often fight or he ignores me. this isn't what i signed up for when we got married. what happened to happily ever after? so thru the past 6 years of our marriage i began to notice how low my self esteem got. especially when i discovered porn on our home computer. however, recently i've been going to church and have met some good friends who make me feel special. i have a really good sunday school class. the ladies sure have helped me recognize i'm valuable even if my husband fails to show me.
My son elijah told my daughter, "i wish we had our old dad back. he's doesn't play games with us because he's on the computer or the phone. i can't remember the last time he played with us."
this hurt, it really did.
however, i've since turned it around. i played video basketball.
played twentyone with him.
went to an MSU football game. and played SORRY with the kiddos.
all of this within the last 3 days.
i now know my son better and what he needs from me right now.
