I'm in northern Michigan for a couple of days before my husband joins me for the weekend. I'm having some good alone time with God. Just the two of us!
I wanted to tell you a little bit about a study I am doing with a group of amazing women in my hometown. We are studying Prayer for seven weeks this summer. I'm learning so much! Yesterday we were asked if there was ever a time when we had a prayer answered that stood out to us. I told the story about my marriage when my husband and I finally got down on our knees and prayed for our marriage that was near disaster. I remembered how ugly the prayer must have sounded to God. But, I know for certain He heard our messy prayers and He answered them with the biggest miracle I have seen in my life! I don't ever want to forget or take Him for granted! I need to continue to pray for my marriage every single day!
On July 7th we will celebrate our 7th Anniversary!
I am still shaking my head at the Grace and Mercy He so freely gave me... and my husband! I know without a shadow of doubt we would not have made it without God as our center.
I am praying for your marriages as I type this. If yours has not gone as you have prayed I am so sorry from the bottom of my heart. Please, keep seeking Him no matter what! He wants the best for you and is with you every step of the way!
We are never alone with God!
Have a great weekend!
Much love,
Angie xoxo

I'm so glad you saw a miracle in your marriage. And I thank you for praying for those of us who have marriages that are falling apart. I cannot pray for myself any more, so it means the world to me that others are interceding.
Enjoy your time up North,
Sheryl
I love you sweet Ang! Thank you for the prayers. I pray for you too.
Enjoy the sweet time with God. We all need that time with Him.
Have a blessed weekend with your hubs!
What a glrious testimony! Have a blessed time with the Lord and a wonderful weekend with your husband.

Have a FABULOUS anniversary!!! What a testimony through your marriage. I LOVE stories like that - where it is ONLY through God's grace!!!
And Allison's voice - simply haunting. Love it.
God is in such sweet details of our lives. You give Him such glory! Much love to you, as you celebrate your anniversary, and prayers for restored years and a joyous future! I love that song...and Alison Krauss. Let our lives be Living Prayers to Him! Love you, Annette
Angie,
That is the most beautiful picture. It not only shows your physical beauty but the inner joy you both have. Your inner beauty is shining so marvelously. So is your husband's but I don't know him as well. I do know enough about him and that is he saw the need and glory in fighting for your marriage. How marvelous on 7/7 it will be 7 years.
Thank you for praying for all those hurting marriages including mine. I continue to lift up other marriages that are hurting, including the one you spoke of a couple weeks ago.
Have a wonderful time this weekend. A strand of three is NEVER broken!
Love to you, my sweet friend.
Paula

God Bless you sweet lady

Faith, hope and prayers to our Lord are essential!!
Blessings in Christ--
Angie,
Happy Anniversary!
You and your dear husband are a testimony of what God can do when something is broken. I love the photo! You both radiate His love!
Congratulations on your upcoming 7th anniversary. The number 7 - God's Divine number that is associated with Divine completion and perfection!
I pray God's continued blessing upon your marriage.
Sherry
Amen. Nothing is impossible if we put God in the driver's seat. Nothing!
Hugs!

Congratulations on your upcoming anniversary. You look so happy together!! Marriage, like parenting looks easy but it takes so much WORK!! I can't believe how many years I didn't pray for my marriage. It's a miracle of God we are still together!!
I will be anxious to hear more about your prayer study. I believe so strongly in the power of prayer and God has shown himself in powerful ways to me through it. I pray for those I love and care about to see him prove himself faithful through answered prayer!!!
I loved this song and watching Allison Kraus sing it. She is not only talented but beautiful as well. It really isn't fair!! lol
Enjoy your time away and I will keep an eye out for your return.
I'll pray you are rested and refreshed when you get home!
Love and Prayers,
Kelley
Congratulations, sweet woman of God. Also, did you receive your book from me yet? I sent it a while ago.
Oh girl these are my same words. If it were not for his grace because it has been a tough road!
