Time away...

God-

I was getting frustrated, so I had to take a few days off. I couldn't pray. I didn't have the words to say. My heart was growing tired and my mind growing more bitter about my husband's job situation. I still feel frustrated, but I am striving to hold onto my faith and truly believe you have a plan in all of this.

Lord, help me to see you. Help me to accept whatever comes our way, even when it is not what we've hoped and prayed for. Help us to know in our hearts that you love us and are ultimately looking our for our best interest. When we continue to pray without any results, it is SO hard to remember those things.

Thank you for all you've done. For all you're doing. For all you will do. I'm trying to stay positive and continue to be strong for my husband -- but some days, it's just really hard.

I continue to lift up my husband --- praying you will move a mountain and make a way for him to start working again. Give me encouragement, confidence and support as he waits for a long-awaited answer to this prayer.

In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
