Thank you today Lord for speaking always. Even when I can't hear you or choose not to listen, thank you for your patience, for never giving up or abandoning me.

Thank you Lord for speaking to me yesterday to reach out to D to thank him for our 33 years of marriage and for being the father of my 3 wonderful children. Lord, as you know I didn't want to, because I thought he would ignore my email & rejection (or ignoring me) hurts so bad. But God, You had a nugget in it for me, because he answered my email and thanked me for the kind words. I thank you for what you are doing on the other side of the mountain of our marriage circumstances, but I also thank you from the bottom of my heart for the transformation you are doing in me. I know You've got a lot of work still to do in me, Lord, and I thank you for working faithfully and tirelessly on me.

God thank you for giving us this group of standers from all different lives and in all different circumstances. That we can all come together for one purpose, to stand against the world and declare our faith in you. Thank you that we each have unique stories because you have given us so many perspectives and so much wisdom collectively. Thank you for blessing and growing our little group and I pray that even when your work is complete in each of our marriages, that we would still stay close and accountable to each other.

Lord I am also so grateful for my church today. I really believed for a long time that it was full of hypocrites, but I realize now that I was blinded by the enemy. Thank you for a church family that has come around me and cared for me

Today I am grateful for the friends I've made here that remind me to have "a mustard seed of faith" when I have lost all faith and hope in my circumstance. When I'm ready to give up, ya'll remind me to keep going! Thank ya'll so much. I'm very on edge this week but I'm trusting in God even though I'm scared... Satan can't have my marriage! God will win this battle!

Today I'm thankful for God's grace and mercy. For God showing me the difference between conviction and condemnation. Whenever I would make a mistake (small or big) I would go down a path that starts as conviction and end up condemning myself. I would feel bad for hours or days about it, cring feeling awful. I almost left no room for error (even though I'm human and know perfection isn't realistic). Today I made a mistake. But instead of beating myself up, I felt the conviction and said "I'm sorry Lord, don't know why I did that, I know better. I'll listen to this conviction and fast tomorrow to put me back on track" and immediately felt it lift off of me. I think that means I'm learning/growing in this area. Tha k you Lord.

So many things to be grateful for today. Thank you Lord that you woke me up. Thank you that you are teaching me forgiveness. That you gave us Mercy - something we could never possibly earn. That you are teaching me to show mercy to Chris, because he could never make up for the problems he caused in our, but thank you also for your mercy to me, because I don't even deserve to be married or have a life after all the awful things I did. Thank you for showing me love when I earned death. Thank you for working on Chris's heart. I don't know how you are doing this, but Lord I see it. And I'm thanking you too today that his deployment was short this year, because he wasn't able to really sabotage himself like he typically does. I pray that he would not go on his deployment next year, but if he does go, Lord stay with him and protect him. I trust you though. I know you have a plan that is much better than mine!

Oh man I haven't said thank you to God in a while! Today I am grateful that it has been 15 months since my husband came home and left his girlfriend. It's not all been roses, but God is working every day on me and I see small changes coming over Chris. It takes longer then I want and I wish it would hurry and happen - that he would transform magically into the man I know God made him to be, but to think about just a year ago where we were and where we are today. God has done some incredible amazing work and He hasn't been slow! Thank you God for working on us and never giving up on us.

Thanks for starting this again Sharon. Praise God for the work He's done in your marriage!
I'm so thankful for revelations, for His timing, & family in Christ today.
A friend of mine called me to tell me the Holy Spirit was telling her to tell me to stand firm. She gave me a scripture the Lord keeps giving me, she confirmed what I felt the Lord telling me to let the kids go & trust him. She even said Hea going to use the kids to reach Tony; which the Lotd gave me a dream about.
It was such a powerful phone call. God is so very good & I feel so blessed that He moved His servents to tell me this. He is moving swiftly! Praise You Lord!
