I could not find the first thread of answers to prayers so I have started another one. Feel free to add yours answers to prayers here too.
I have asked others to pray for two University students and I am so happy to report to you that they got engaged to marry Dec. 2. They have been struggling with their desires and he is a pastors son and her mother is being trained to counsel teens to stay abstinent so you can see why I asked for prayer for them. I am her mother! I cant thank you all enough for praying for them. G*d is so good to put them together and then to answer my prayers as well. I am so learning what in life I can control and what in life I cant.
I am also being healed of the past as well and I cant explain what is happening in my heart. Its new for me. Its like being humbled but not in a rebuking fashion but in a full awareness of my faults and at the same time feeling the loving presence of our merciful G*d. Its as though the very hand of our loving Father is comforting me.
Many beautiful things happening I will share one more with you. I found a black/white spotted sheep dog about six months ago and gave him away once and he came back and he has been a difficult placement for us. We fell in love with him but cant keep him and have tried so many times to give him away but each time he barked so fiercely at the potential owners they backed away. But we decided to try again and two ladies came by, neighbors out shopping, and they motioned for me to talk to them about the dog so I told them about his particulars and said that he might take some time to trust them and the driver says oh my friend is like a dog whisperer the dog will come to her. He did. Shyly but he did not bark his head off! While petting him the lady encouraged the driver to come and look at him. When the driver saw him she said I had to put my elderly dog down a month ago and as she looked at Cody, thats what we called him, she fell in love. She said shed take him and give him a good home and the neighbor said if she didnt keep him shed take him! A miracle, a small one, but still a burden lifted. Cody got a good home and we can now focus on the puppy I found a week ago!! G*d is indeed keeping me busy! Best medicine of all!
