i had to make just one more attempt to get through to christian last night before i could lay my head on the pillow. emotionally, i was drained...physically, my adrenaline was pumping at a rate beyond my control. i decided to send him a text message...hoping that seeing the words in black and white, might somehow make a difference. my message was simple.
"there are alot of ppl who are saying prayers for you...right now. i ask that you open your heart and feel the Lord's presence...open your eyes to see that there is a light at the end of the tunnel...and open your ears to hear the prayers being sent your way. if my love could "fix" you...you would not be in this place in your life...you would not be scared...you would not be lost. there is a better way but you have to travel that road to get there."
he texted me back about an hour later saying that he was safe and at home.
thank you to those who said a prayer for christian last night...the power of prayer is a wonderful thing :)

That just brought me to tears
glad to here the news
no matter what he has just taken a detour in life and hes in a bad storm and cant get back on the right road.When the storm clears he will see the light and he will realize that he never had to take that trip. All he needs is for gods hand to reach down and touch his heart.

Lizzie & anyone who is reading this...We did a study in our Sunday School class a few years ago on a book called The Power of Crying Out ( I will have to find the author but you should be able to google it) It was awesome... went into how if you just say it out loud to God he will answer you. We all tried it that week and every lady in my class had a testimony on how it worked. Mine was I couldn't find the book at any stores...so I was sitting at my desk at work and prayed out loud to find the book...the next store I called had 2 left & held them for me.
I don't know what your situation is exactly right now...I kind of see it by your story. But I thought this would be a good read for you.
I will keep you and your family in my prayers.

Excellent You are an amazing woman, that to brought me to tears
i have to say that the last 3-4 days have been absolutely horribe...but i woke this morning with such peace in my heart. christian "survived" his wife leaving him...a meth binge...and his thoughts of suicide. my son made it through another day...another night. i HAVE TO believe that he is now "one day closer" to sobriety.
something happened to christian last night from the time that i started my post, til this morning. he stopped the insanity...he went home...and he called me this morning to tell me that he loved me. i can only believe that God laid his healing hands on christian and is offering him his love and guidance...once again.
i appreciate all the good thoughts and prayers more than any of you will ever know. i have met some of the most awesome ppl on this site over the last 14 months and if i were to be honest...i would have never made it without you. i dont know what tomorrow will bring...but today...we are both at peace :)
hugs,
kim
