Beloved
I have been attending a church since re-transplanting from Asia back near my elderly Dad and Stepmom. Things with my wife are “radio silence” as she has deserted me for the 16th time, this time has not spoken to me or let me see son since March 24th. She has had an online dating profile since last August, so she never discarded it while we were attempting reconciliation Jan to April. She insists she doesn’t want to reconcile…
Have been helping locally not only with my Dad and Stepmom (Eternal Perspective, Faith in Christ Alone, Strengthening them in the Word, helping w/doctors, medicine & technology), but with continuing to witness to my "housemate" for whom God opened a door to share about Christ and does so every time we meet. He is moving in 8 days and there is a change of management at his job, and the transformation has not yet “sunk in” (much like the disciples' growth was gradual — yet still they followed Him and still ended to have their moment of epiphany -- Matt 16:16-17 -- but I keep sharing Christ crucified to him patiently, praying for him in person and in secret as well as requesting others to pray for him — I believe he has a pastoral calling (wants to counsel)…
Please pray for our little evangelism group, that we are strengthened, are faithful and effective (that it stops getting cancelled — it's 2 for 4 attempts)... Please pray I learn Spanish better and for at least one woman, ###, who prayed to receive Christ to be followed up by the right woman… As a general rule I do not “follow-up” or “disciple” females, but recommend them to other sisters in the church, it being proper and sound to do so…
Also for the literally hundreds who have heard since last July especially, and thousands over the years — not boasting for in reality it should have been 100-fold, had only I listened more acutely, Isaiah 48:18-19… I ask for protection from temptation, sin, evil people, evil and the evil one — let him who thinks he stands take heed, 1 Cor 10:12, and Paul, knowing the insidious nature of the ancient serpent, buffets his body and makes it his slave, lest after Preaching to Others (of all things), he might be disqualified, 1 Cor 9:27... See also Ecclesiastes 12:11-12, and the conclusion of the matter is fear God, Ecclesiastes 12:13. Pastors in Asia and one here with a wife from the same country as mine are saying I have to move on in my situation. That actually gives me peace to consider if that is any umpire on decision making, Col 3:15 [1]…
I tried to be Hosea, tried to be Christ, kept my end of the agreement (to attend marriage home group and church, but she did not attend, was returning to her home province and I grew impatient after finding out she had had other boyfriends and was still denying stolen money and just figures she can do better and break the vows. I'd still be willing to reconcile were she saved and repentant, but she doesn't has neither the wisdom, humility or compassion for our son of Gomer, not (at least at this point) willing to even reply to texts, take calls or say anything with a glimmer of hope there…
Pray for her salvation, my son’s protection and miraculous upbringing in the Lord by extraordinary means, my wisdom and direction and God continues to sanctify and use me in any way He wants. Clarity, vision and direction. Strength to know and do god’s will. Thank you in Jesus’ Name, ###
