My Dear Friends in Christ,
I am in need of your prayers to help me with my relationship for my faith is being tested. A little backround. Kathy and I have been together for the past 2.5 years. She has three children and we are foster parents. We have had our problems. I have been praying. Purchased the Love Dare and have been working it. I just wasn't able to give to God my relationship. About a month ago, she stepped out of our relationship. I was jealous and mad. I said some things to the wrong people which got back to childrens division. Kathy was faced with a challenge. She was told by childrens division either I needed to leave or our foster child would be removed. I was told to move out. Two weeks after I was removed, they took my daughter anyway.
I have my distance from Kathy. I have continued to pray, still having a tough time handing over our relationship. This past week I went to the Marriage Event. This was the biblical explanation to the movie Fireproof. It was while I was here, that I was able to ask the Holy Spirit to take my heart of stone and replace it with a loving heart. Within a short period of time, I could feel the transformation. My heart was once again filled with love and peace. I am ready to fight for the relationship without the selfishness that has plagued it. It was mutual. I have to be the bigger person. Our love is worth fighting for.
This morning my faith is being tested. I received a phone call from Kathy. Childrens division has told her that under no circumstances is she allowed to have any contact with me.
I ask for prayers through the Holy Spirit that whomever is responsible for making this decision will have a change of heart. This has been her lifelong dream to foster. I cannot stand in the way and am willing to give the relationship up if it meant jeopardizing her dream. I ask for a resolution.
My friends, I thank you for your love and support.
