Humble Prayer Partner
There is power in prayer (James 5:16)!
My adventure in Alaska continues. I continue to pray that God will give me strength to live each day. There are many times a day I just want to give up. Please God give me strength!
As many of you know, I have been living in my van for nearly a full month. It is 2:31 AM and the mosquitoes are driving me crazy. It’s not so much the biting as it is the noise. I cover my head and I can hear them buzzing around.
Alaska is the prettiest place I’ve ever been but it has its negatives. Right now, it is daylight nearly 24 hours a day. The mosquitoes are relentless and Hell bound.
My previous Landlord has a place for me to live in a primitive apartment near my previous apartment. It will be free and I think I can move over there on June 17 or so. I hope. It will be primitive, but at least I can close the door and have the ability to cook food, etc..
Each night, I need good rest. But living in the van makes that difficult. It’s daylight outside most of the night. The mosquitoes are buzzing all around. And the cars are zooming around outside in the parking lot so, I may sleep for five hours a night at the most.
Also, this week the temperatures are abnormally higher, and it makes it very difficult to be in the van.
Yesterday, I was tempted to do something wrong. The temptation was so strong. I almost caved, but I did not. I felt bad that I almost caved or gave in, but part of me was thankful that I did not. It gave me strength, knowing that I won that victory.
My new job as laboratory manager continues. The guy training me can be a jerk and then sometimes he can be good. He will be gone in a month and I will take over completely. I am still amazed that God gave me this job out of nowhere. It’s crazy to think that this job appeared out of nowhere and I got the job.
Everything about the new job is new to me. It’s not like I’ve been in the industry for 20 or 30 years. I have never done this work in my life. I am learning everything just like a new employee. To me, it’s amazing and obviously the hand of God.
I miss my wife and children. My wife really stabbed me in the back and hurt me deeply. For her own soul sake, she needs to repent of what she did to me. I stand prepared to forgive her and love her, like Christ loved the church (Eph 5:25).
Yes, I believe in Jesus. Yes I believe divorce is wrong, etc. I always feel like I need to put that in my prayer request otherwise people will respond negatively towards me.
So, I continue to request prayers. I trust that God is working in ways that I would not grasp or fully understand. I also trust that God is working in her life.
Please continue to pray for me:
Continued strength.
Reconciliation of marriage
Be a good manager
Learn what I need to learn a new job
Family back together is one
Get out of this van and into a home
Thank you!
