[__ Prayer __] Bad Situation

Will do Daniell, don't despair yet. God will come through in time.
 
Lost lamb will do.
hang in there God has you in his palm, I know you are living that, sometimes it's good to visualise it - that's what helped me when we had no job a couple of years ago, and I was so down not knowing what to do.
 
Update Once More...

Well, it is official...though a number of people may disagree with how things played out. My folks paid for a bus ticket for the father-in-law to make his way down to the mother-in-law. The hubby and I woke up bright and early around the crack of dawn to see him off. It was a trying time for not even ten hours prior the hubby had a bit of a rough conversation with his father in regards of his living arrangements while he had been living here with us. It was rather disheartening for the father-in-law complained a great deal about how he did not want to die on the streets and had it rough. To this....the hubby as gently as he could muster, reminded my father-in-law that while he was here he had free food and lodging, that there was not a cent he had to pay while living with us.

Well...in short, the hubby was sicker than sick this morning (physically and emotionally) when we brought his father down to the bus station. He told his father the best he could that he loved him even tried to give a little bit of a hug....but it seems his father now resents him as well as me.
So now my husband harbors some guilt in regards of choosing his son over his father not to mention, some anger towards his father and himself for even caring at this point. This I am trying to help him work past, for though we all have been hurt, it is a hope of mine we can come to forgive his father in time and that perhaps God might work some wonders in the father-in-law's life.

On the bright side....food stamps came through yesterday evening. I start work tomorrow officially. Who knows...maybe in time my husband too will have a job?! Seems like God is starting to shower us in some of His blessings. Really have to say....He could not have timed it better....then maybe He was trying to have us make this move from the begining.....hard to say.

Thank you all again for your thoughts and prayers.

May God Bless You

Danielle,

I have always found God's timing to be impeccable. :amen

In time this will all be reconciled I'm sure. God will give you and hubby the time needed to sort things out and deal with all the emotions. HE will also not hesitate to remind you when it is time to move on. While I can't relate to your personal experience here, I know oh so well how physically and emotionally draining this can be.

May God continue to bless the both of you. :angel

It is amazing how lives change by the power of God. So many people do not understand that wealth and wisdom are found in the little details of life. I have found that God is not in the destination, but He is in the journey. Our darkest hour ends up being our purist time for HIM to shine.
