My praise is that even though I still have my restoration a heart but my days are filled with being connecting with God. it is only in prayers that I found my true peace.
Instead of trying always to run away or fixing things myself, "letting go and letting God" has helped me be strong and have courage, to trample on the doubts and fears and look to God in times of fear.
I'm taking C1 and am on Day 22: RYM: Chapter 16 "The Keys of Heaven" reading through it at least 3 or more times.
And this helped me realize that my enemy has never been my husband, not even the OW. But my enemy is my own sins, ignorance...any darkness I let into my life.
Now thru God, I have the key to tie and untie things and encourage my own miracles and blessings.
I see now that God started to work in my restoration even before I deeply began to seek His help. because I was praying and comforting others while in my own despairs, despite all my friends telling me to stop it, it took a toll on my body but that was the only way I felt useful.
I now find myself less and less worrying about my EH or his whereabouts....Oh God, and I can hear you more and more clearly no matter my afflictions....You know them, I know them, but others see me shining awesome God. because You are my only comforter and shoulder. Until you make me sit on your right and make my enemies my footstool I will look to You only and rely only on You to do it!
I ONCE FELT LIKE SINCE I CHOSE THIS JOURNEY MY LIFE IS MORE AFFLICTED THAN EVER, MY HEART AND MY OWN SPIRIT TOO. I STARTED CRYING WHEN I NEVER DID BEFORE, MORE WORRIES THAN EVER, BUT I KNOW AS WELL THAT IS THE ENEMY FIGHTING ME.
But today I do not have any fears and I will highly proclaim it and PRAISE GOD FOR THIS PEACE THAT IS BEYOND MY OWN UNDERSTANDINGS. I NO LONGER WAKE UP AFRAID TO BE AGAIN IN TEARS AND DESPAIRS.
TODAY I GIVE YOU MORE THAN MY TITHES SO OTHERS PEOPLE CAN BE TOUCHED BY YOUR TRUTH. I KNOW YOU FILL UP THE HOLE IN MY FINANCE AND PROVIDE EVEN MORE.
I ACTUALLY REST ASSURE THAT YOU ARE MY COMFORT, MY PROMISE OF HAPPINESS, ONLY YOU CAN LOVE ME THIS WAY.
I THANK YOU, RMI, FOR MY NEW CHURCH AND THIS NEW ME. AND A LOT OF PEOPLE DO TO. THAT WORTH MORE THAN ALL.

Do you want to PRAISE Him for how He's shown you how you can also encourage other women who need help with their fears, waking up afraid? Aren't you thankful that Lucy shared this with you an Encouraging Woman?
Remember, Matthew 7:13-14 tells us to “Enter 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.”
And Psalm 100:4 tells us HOW to Enter— “Enter His gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise. Give thanks to Him, bless His name.”
Be sure to submit a Praise Report today and enter through that narrow gate few ever find!
