Our HH “Heavenly Husband” is so much better in every way than any man on earth. Once you realize how deeply and passionately He feels for you, you will discover in Chapter 1 “What Is the Abundant Life?” the abundance He wants you to have, joy unspeakable. I have learnt from my HH that I can talk to Him about everything and He will prepare me for anything. I seek His opinion about everything and I feel so sad when He is silent, which is when I want my will, not His. I have also searched myself again and found that I have a long way to go to become the woman He wants me to become.
This week I have been struggling to bring my thoughts into obedience to His word. I would then take a moment and quiet myself and seek a specific scripture that reminds me that I need to meditate on His word. I find myself also thinking a lot about my FH “former husband” when I do I put it out of my mind, because I am being adulterous.
I seek Him in moments when I feel emotionally weak and I am tempted to think about my FH.
Please forgive me Lord for the wrong choices I have made. I realize that I have not been keeping my mind on things above and have been looking at my circumstances instead of seeking You. I have also caught myself reminiscing to times when I was still married to my FH. I also when faced with an opportunity to encourage others with the word choose to speak worldly things.
If you have been struggling like I have, say this prayer with me: Lord You are all I need, want and live for. My life and everything in it would be meaningless without You.. I will trust in You alone, my Redeemer, my Rock, my Fortress.

Isaiah 54:4-6—“Fear not, for you will not be put to shame; And do not feel humiliated, for you will not be disgraced; But you will forget the shame of your youth, And the reproach of your widowhood you will remember no more. “For your Husband is your Maker, Whose name is the Lord of hosts; And your Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel, Who is called the God of all the earth.
“’For the Lord has called you, Like a wife forsaken and grieved in spirit, Even like a wife of one’s youth when she is rejected,’ Says your God.” “Instead of your shame you will have a double portion, and instead of humiliation they will shout for joy over their portion. Therefore they will possess a double portion in their land, Everlasting joy will be theirs. For I, the Lord, love justice, I hate robbery…and I will faithfully give them their recompense and make an everlasting covenant with them. Then their offspring will be known among the nations, and their descendants in the midst of the peoples.”
Love the Lord with all your heart, mind and souls, find rest in Him for He longs to give you rest from your past, He wants to heal your hurts. Give it all to Him and watch what He will do.
