♕ Today's Promise: "Therefore Jesus told them, 'My time is not yet here; for you any time will do.'" John 7: 6

Hello dear brides,
I wanted to share a praise report on the “delays” our HH (Heavenly Husband) can cause in our lives. I am sure that like me, you made requests to your HH but that some did not come true. You told yourself then that either your HH isn't listening to you, or He's late, or it just wasn't His will. If you're like me, sometimes you even think you just don't deserve what you've asked for. If you think about it, then you let the evil one whisper wrong things in your ear. Above all do not believe it! Your HH wants to fill you up, just read all the promises He makes to you in the Bible.
Back to my praise report. This week I had my monthly appointment with my gynecologist to see how my baby is growing. But as you know, when you are on a restoration journey, you often have financial problems and I could not afford the consultation. So I didn't worry and said to my HH (Heavenly Husband): “I know that you are going to give me the means to go to this consultation, which is why I am not going to ask my relatives for money."
But to be honest with you my dear brides, I even thought inside of me: "My love (that's what I call my HH), you certainly have no interest in making me miss this date". Then the day before the appointment with my gynecologist, still having no money for the consultation, I felt the stress mounted in me. Having said that, very quickly I remembered one of the lessons of the RRR course which asked us to visualize the worst thing that could happen in a situation if things really were to go wrong.
So I asked myself what could happen badly if I could not go to this consultation. And the answer was simple: NOTHING! The world wasn't going to stop, I wasn't going to collapse, my baby was still going to be in good shape, warm in my tummy. So, I decided that if I couldn't go to this consultation for lack of means, I would simply call the hospital to cancel the appointment and ask for another one. Note that to have an appointment, you have to wait 2 to 3 weeks but the receptionist offered me an appointment the next day in the afternoon. What a miracle!
My HH (Heavenly Husband) is wonderful. But guess what is even more wonderful. It is because the proposed day was a day when my EH (earthly husband) was on leave, so he could accompany me to the ultrasound. It was the first time he accompanied me. I was really happy that he could come with me but I still didn't have any money. But guess who paid for the consultation? Yes yes, that's my EH (earthly husband)! My HH made me miss my 9 am appointment or I would have been alone, and where I would probably have paid myself, to allow me to sleep longer, to go the next day in the afternoon, accompanied by my EH. So my HH wasn't late at all, He just had a better plan and now that I think about it my HH was perfectly on time!
