I'm Married with a restored marriage and I've been Refreshing and Retaking my Courses again but have a Praise about how God is working in my life or the lives of my family. (Remember this is aΒ Farm to Table PR).
First of all today is my birthday, am really so grateful to God for This day and Erin and RMI i pray to God to bless you and reward you with the most beautiful reward. Honestly i don't know where i would be without the materials and help from you , my blessings. God restored my marriage "My World had Come to an End!" and, at first my husband was not even remorseful as i had envisioned but over time i have watched him change a lot though he is not yet born again but he is the most loving and tender man i know, i had never experienced this before but. God i believe he will soon see the light am believing MY HH for that.
During my RJ i sought God a lot because of that massive heartache. honestly in my life no one had ever hurt me like my EH did then. i had never been heart broken before and i did not know how to separate myself from that pain. I moved everywhere with that pain in my heart and stomach i could actually feel my heart pain in my sleep as well. On the course of my restoration journey i met other women around me who were going through the same as i suffered through so i would encourage them and photocopy the resources i had and give them away. Some of them experienced restored marriages though some were so hurt that the advice in the books seemed very unfair and would not follow through and i perfectly understood them but tried to encourage them but God kept showing me in dreams other peoples marriages, how they were either in trouble or yet to be. I would pray but i had i deep fear in me about dealing in marriages and restoration because there was so much pain in the details.
I knew what God wanted me to do but i kept saying and thinking" I DON'T WANT TO BE INVOLVED IN THE MARRIAGE MINISTRY BC THERE IS A LOT OF PAIN INVOLVED." and i would cry each time someone narrated their ordeal and would think about mine too. I have been praying for ministry that God wants me to do and i was so very afraid i would end up in marriage ministry.
I kept on having dreams about my friends and family's marriages and only to prove that what i was dreaming is true. Now i have decided to l trust God to help me in this Ministry!
I recently started to tell people that i am involved in marriage ministry i no longer want to keep running away from this that God is calling me too.
My marriage is not perfect and that is also what i was waiting for to have a perfect marriage before i embark on Ministry but none the less i am on my way to doing my HH business bc i cannot run away from this. we are surrounded by a perverted version of the marriages that is far from what God desires and it starts with us women we need to correct our mistakes in marriage and yet we look at our husbands mistakes and our husbands too throw a very big weight on us women and don't love us the way Christ loved His church as to die for her but look to us women as a problem, so much blame in marriage the cause of all this.
So help me my HH to please You in this work. Erin, i thank you for the sacrifice you made to work in this ministry God Himself will reward you for many are your children (Isaiah 54) my blessings to you and the RMI family.
Dear HH please forgive me for wanting to do only what i like, as the prodigal son am back forgive me and help me as i embark on this journey to stand with my beloved sisters in marriages, you are my light and salvation, a light unto my path. You lead the righteous in the path to salvation lead me and my sisters and may i fall deeper in deeper in love with You as i walk this wonderful path of salvation my hope is in You.
You are the author and finisher of my faith. Thank you
βSing, barren woman,
you who never bore a child;
burst into song, shout for joy,
you who were never in labor;
because more are the children of the desolate woman than of her who has a husband,β says the Lord.
"For you will spread out to the right and to the left; your descendants will dispossess nations
and settle in their desolate cities.
In righteousness you will be established:
Tyranny will be far from you;
you will have nothing to fear.
Terror will be far removed;
it will not come near you.
If anyone does attack you, it will not be my doing; whoever attacks you will surrender to you.
βSee, it is I who created the blacksmith
who fans the coals into flame
and forges a weapon fit for its work.
And it is I who have created the destroyer to wreak havoc; no weapon forged against you will prevail,
and you will refute every tongue that accuses you.
This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord,
and this is their vindication from me,β
declares the Lord.

MINISTRY NOTE
Very recently we have seen several new ministries springing up, women who have come through their RJ and are using the resources from RMI. Our focus has become clearer, which is to follow what the Lord is doing and help ministries like Alexy's succeed with our love and support.
If you've felt like Alexy, you don't need to wait until you have the perfect marriage and you don't even need to have a restored marriage yet. You can also start by asking God to just send one woman, discovering your ePartner and begin to minister to her, then another and then another.
Do you want to PRAISE Him for how He's shown you how you can also encourage other women who need encouragement to begin their own marriage restoration ministry; maybe you? Aren't you thankful that Alexy shared this with you an Encouraging Woman so you can answer His call too?
Remember, Matthew 7:13-14 tells us to βEnter by the narrow gate; for the gate is wide, and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and many are those who enter by it. For the gate is small, and the way is narrow that leads to life, and few are those who find it.β
And Psalm 100:4 tells us HOW to Enterβ βEnter His gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise. Give thanks to Him, bless His name.β
Be sure to submit a Praise Report today and enter through that narrow gate few ever find!
