Oh, I do hope it helps her, to a degree, at least. God will provide and when we''re stubborn *like me,* He''ll keep on making clear what''s right, even when we don''t want to see it.
The good thing is that it wasn''t time wasted. Not at all. I learned to really rely on God during that time, and through the break up *it was a 7 month process, in reality,* I really learned so much about the strength I have in Him.
Which I guess sounds silly for me to be saying now that I have the man I know will love me and cherish me just as the Bible says to, and I know more about the characteristics of Christ simply by seeing Him alive in Paul daily, and here I am grumbling about money. Haha. God''s got it covered. And His time is perfect, even though I fret over things.
Phillipians 4:6-8 is my continual reminder that I need not worry in this life. Geesh, it''s so hard not to. But when I finally stop pushing and pulling and begging and whinning, it comes, just as I had hoped for, but better. I''ve never once had to try to *convince* Paul to love me, or to treat me as I should be treated. It just happened. Once I was out of that previous relationship, I told God I''d let go and let Him lead me where I needed to be. And yay! That''s to Georgia, in a metro area!!!, with the man who couldn''t love me more if he tried.
I will be praying for your daughter, whatever her situation may be. It really is true that we''re not put through more than we can handle. Seems like we''ll fall apart at times, but He''ll supply all we need.
Gosh, I feel it''s Sunday school now. Anyway, just know Paul and I will pray for her.
