Dear ones, today I want to share how worth it is to be on this Journey and how our children benefit from it, my greatest joy is to look at everything that has happened so far, there were difficult times we went through when my daughter was still a child, contacts with OM, being away from your earthly father, in short everything that most of us had to face on this journey. Today I want to open my lips in praise, because nothing that happened affected her life, today I look at her, and I see how she has grown, how she loves her earthly father, how she is meek and quiet, how she is calm, and a gifted girl, today she is 16 years old and knows how to cook very well, I am impressed by how she cleans and organizes the house, the clothes, how she takes care of her things, how dedicated she is and always finishes everything she starts, She is always punctual on time, never late for anything. I want to thank my Beloved because I was able to stay at home for 8 years, that was a great blessing and all of this was only possible because I learned the importance of being at home, I know that if it weren't for my Beloved I wouldn't have said anything happened, He taught me through the ministry the importance of staying at home, educating our children, having time for them, listening to them, always being present in their lives and asking God to guide us. I remember that when it all started I said to my Beloved in tears: Dear, I failed as a wife, I was foolish and destroyed my marriage, my home, but I ask You, don't let me fail as a mother, help me to be the mother that You created me to be, because without You I can't do anything, I don't want to walk without You anymore.
Dear ones, time passed and I had many moments where I didn't know how to act, how to make certain decisions, but I always took everything to Him, and today I just want to praise and say that it's worth following His principles and that at the right time we will reap the fruits .
A few days ago my daughter was asking me for a sewing machine, she wanted to make her own clothes, when she asked me for the machine, I told her that we needed some time to work as He would give us this blessing, my daughter She was always very patient, but the days went by and I noticed how eagerly she was dreaming about the machine, she drew models on paper, showed me some machines that were for sale on promotional websites, told me that she had found a simple machine, cheap, which might be possible to purchase. I confess that my mother's heart sank, I was already praying and trusting that our Beloved would resolve this in the best way possible, as He always has the best for us and loves to bless us.
And I'm so happy today because everything worked out so beautifully, He's really incredible. One weekend my cousin asked me to go to a sewing machine store to see prices and if she had any she could buy. So I went, we got there and it was a beautiful place for sales and repairs, there were so many models of machines there, a friendly man came to meet us and asked who the machine was for and what I was going to sew, I explained to him that it was for mine daughter, she was there too, so he looked at her and said: I have something special for you, a light machine, that sews very well and you will sew a lot with it. She smiled and he explained the whole process of how the machine works, when I looked at her, her eyes were shining, she was so happy. My heart was pounding, because at that moment I needed to trust that He was leading everything. So he asked if we would take it, I asked the price and when he said the price I smiled because I had that money, I hadn't imagined it would be a price I could pay at that moment, the machine was brand new, but my beloved already knew of everything, because that day I had looked at my account balance, after tithing and paying the bills there was still a balance there and it was for that moment. We left there beaming and when we got home she sat down and spent the whole day sewing, it's so wonderful to see her joy when she's sewing.
Thank you my Dear for everything, for taking care of our children and guiding us to take care of our children, thank you for caring and being their Heavenly Father.
The PTG Team invites you to visit our blog as we have our Friday's HomeGrown - "Cultivado em casa" posting day:
Oh Frida, what a beautiful praise. I have tears in my eyes. Yes, how He is just so amazing to take something so devastating that can happen to a family and turn it into beauty. I loved reading how He just came through for your daughter and she is now able to make clothes on her brand-new sewing machine. What an amazing gift. More than that, just the hope that divorce is not the end for our children. It is such a comfort. Not only will they survive, but like you said, it will benefit them, they will thrive.
You made me think of a verse that when my children were small and I was just going through divorce that gave me so much comfort:
“He will feed his flock like a shepherd. He will carry the lambs in his arms, holding them close to his heart. He will gently lead the mother sheep with their young.”
And just thinking back, this is exactly what He did.
For the ladies coming here and reading this wonderful praise, I want to also share a lesson in Finding the Abundant Life that really helped me through a time where my children was going through a difficult time and with all my heart I wanted to protect them, but felt helpless.

Thank you Yvonne❣️ I agree with every word you said 🙂 And this is a “must read” lesson!
Such a wonderful praise, thank you for sharing! He truly will take care of us and our children. He turns everything around and makes it better than we could ever imagine.
Amem Elda, we have such amazing testimonies to share ❣️
Thank you for this beautiful praise dear Frida, it just put a smile on my face. I just love love what our wonderful Lord is doing, He really deserves all the praise, I just love Him!
Thank you for your beautiful praise. When my world fell apart all I could think about was my children and the devastation they would face, and there was time during the divorce they took it bad. But as I learned more from the lessons and the principles, things became easier for us. But what really brought the biggest change was when I found and fell in love with my Heavenly Husband shortly after the divorce.
And now my fh and I have a peaceful co-parenting relationship because of applying the principles, and these principles I can now teach to my children and how to apply them in practical ways and then there is also https://homegrownministries.com/ with lots of resources to help our children find their Heavenly Father and Best Friend who is always with them. The children and I also enjoy spending time together every day reading https://homegrownministries.com/my-beloved-child-devotional/ and talking about what they’ve learned from each devotional.
Seeing how my daughter seeks her HF through reading and marking her bible, painting pictures with verses and always asking me questions is such a blessing and fills my heart with joy. Oh, and how she follow His lead.
And my son is always the one who wants to pray at dinner time and when we go to sleep, and he is also not scared to tell his friends about his HF and BF.
Wow Adina, thank you❣️ We have so much to share not only about what we’ve learned here, but with every single testimony shared among us and that we can spread and encourage women ans potencial new brides 🙌
Wow, beautiful!! Both the testimony and the comments have encouraged me a lot! Currently I am “pregnant” with hope hahaha I trust in my Beloved that the day will come when He will make me a mother… meanwhile I enjoy reading how He is such a wonderful Father. I have not been through what you have been through and the lessons you have shared are definitely very precise!
My friend Frida, I have tears in my eyes as I read your beautiful report. How many things have we shared about our dear daughters? Looking back, we never imagined that we would see our beautiful girls become these wonderful young women who are being shaped by Him…
There’s how I get emotional with all of this… remembering that I was so afraid that Brincy would suffer with everything I experienced in my restoration, but when I discovered the best thing in my life, which was Him becoming my Heavenly Husband and I His Bride, so naturally He became the amazing Father to Brincy as well, and our lives started to change… and now I see her happy, at peace, aware of the Lord’s plan for her and me, and she knows too that He has control of everything in His mighty hands.
Thank you dear for sharing your heart through this praise report.🌷
