Praise the Lord! 

as for me, my husband is a huge blessing and answer to prayer for me!  i thank the Lord for him and for our marriage every day! 

today, the Lord answered my prayers for renewed peace and joy in our home and especially a peace and calm for myself and that He would do as He pleases through me in my relationship with stepkids- especially teenage boy!  i prayed the Lord would work in his life and have been reminded lately that he is God's and to let the Lord work in him- he came home from school like a whole different person than who left this morning!  we all enjoyed a peaceful happy evening as a family- thank you God!

Hello everyone,

I got my raise finally after it being held up for 90 days and my supevisor is no longer my supervisor as they abused their authority over me - thank you Jesus for finally answering that prayer! It's funny, when I said I take my hands off this and some other issues, for these two prayers, it was lightning fast how God answered them. As for the things I shared here in the past, I'm just trusting God to reveal to me what is going on, and seeing where He drives me in the car. Kinda nice just being the passenger. I saw this thread and decided to post my answered prayer, because the Lord has been very sweet to me. I also had this very interesting dream where I guess we had our new glorified bodies, and I felt intense love that I can't explain, that I don't feel in this natural body in my daily life, I remember running into two ex-friends, they're were husband and wife on earth, and I was so happy, so much joy that is unexplainable. I woke up and the presence of the Lord was so strong on me, Lately since we have been discussing Him, His presence on me seems more stronger,but I guess as we get to know Him, it grows, Seems like lately it is so much stronger than ever  - could it because He is nearer than we all think as in the end times events playing out?

So sweet of Him to comfort me in my bed.

Everybody's stories are so amazing! I'm sure our Dad loves when we tell of His intervention in our lives. Here is one of mine; my biggest one. It's a long story, but I'll shorten it as much as I can.

Years ago, while pregnant with my youngest son, I prayed all the typical "mommy-prayers"...make him perfect, no sickness, and oh yeah...I want him circumcised on the 8th day, so please no pressure from the doctors...blah blah blah...(how spoiled we are!) My 9 months passed in happy, healthy bliss.

Birth came around and he suddenly had severe meconium aspiration and he was born nearly dead. When I saw him for the first time, limp, lifeless, and fading I felt the fear and anger begin to rise up like a horrible, terrifying, all consuming wave in the delivery room. Then, inexplicably, it suddenly washed off me! It just vanished. I couldn't have dragged up that fear if I wanted to! Then I heard a voice "Watch me. Watch what I do..." that no one else heard. The NICU team arrived with their baby sized crash cart and they took my dying son away with a promise that they would have us there before "the end". Wonderful, huh? His dad was crying and when I told him what I heard, everyone looked at me with pity...I was obviously losing my mind, unable to accept that our son was dying. We found he had destroyed his lung tissue. He had a small piece left 1/2 the size of a postage stamp. They told us that babies "like this" don't live too long, and if they do, they have a life of seizures and retardation from the oxygen loss, and probably blindness from the pure oxygen environment they put them in. "Sure, okay...but I heard differently..." More looks of pity from the recovery nurses (I was in that special room they put you in when everyone knows this is not going to be a good outcome) "Do you know where you are?" "Yes, of course I know where I am" "Do you realize you had a baby?" "Yes and he's sick and the doctor said he's probably going to die and I'm telling YOU I HEARD DIFFERENTLY! God said to watch Him, so I am...Can I have something to eat please? I'm starving..."

Since this is a thread of miracles and answered prayer, you can tell that the days in the NICU went by; and my son became known by his nurse as her "Miracle Baby". Many times I would find all 3 neonatalogists hovering over his little bed, wondering what to make of this kid. Obviously he didn't die. Well, then surely there will be blindness and seizures...nope. Those that survive don't do so quickly, so the best bet is we could take him home in 4 months. No again.

One morning I walked in and the doctor said "Well, this is ridiculous. We're just watching him here. You can do that just as well at home. We can release him tomorrow. See you then." And the next day as Dad and I drove our newly-circumcised little boy home, it suddenly dawned on me that it was his 8th day. God said "See...in all the mayhem and seeming destruction...I even remembered that, because you are that important."

Today that boy whose future held nothing but seizures, retardation and probably blindness is an amazing, self-taught bass player (on our praise and worship team), sold out on Jesus, a critical thinker and always at the top of his class in all his studies. AMEN!

Needleme:
Oh, Destiny! What a wonderful testimony! And THIS is who we get to spend eternity with! I'm in tears, lady.

 What an awesome awesome God we serve! I never forgot the sound of His voice, and the squashing of what should have been my natural momma-bear reaction. He is beyond words.

BTW....my healing continues today, absolutely NO symptoms from the earlier attack in my sinuses. 100% GONE!

Of COURSE it does, and of course they are! Girl, I'm getting to the point that nothing surprises me anymore! We're waiting for blaring trumpets and trips through the sky! Why not completely healed lungs and sinuses? Like you said "THIS...is who we get to spend eternity with!" And I don't know what you look like, but you might end up a lot like your avatar. We're going to have a planet to rebuild. He'll need sold-out, infused people that can be warriors if necessary. Our lives haven't begun yet.
