Hi everyone,
it has been about 2months since i posted a message on the board.
I want to thank you all for your prayers, advice and encouragement.
I am about 5 months pregnant and i am looking forward to my baby. I am so thankful that i have kept the baby.
The first few months i was really sick and together witht he stress of my husband leaving and my in laws giving me problems-it was a terrible time.
BUT TO GOD BE the Glory!!!!!!!!!
I am doing much better. I have a relationship wiht my in-laws. my husband and i are not together but he still provides for me financially. he also agreed to hold off on the divorce until i get my greencard.
We dont have a friendly relationship but there is no disrespect.we only talk when necessary and over the phone.i see my in laws and they have apologized for all they said an ddid.
I am much stronger and and would never had made it without JEsus.
I pray that God blesses this baby and that my situation will be a testimoney to others.
Please keep me in prayer as it does get lonely nad i miss my husband. i do not have any family here so this pregnancy is quite lonely and i have to everything on my own.
thank you all.
God bless each of you.

Hi Promise! Thank you for sharing this update. To God be the glory! You are already an encouragement in your decision to stay strong and keep this child. God will honor that! You will surly have many more trials to come. But there will be much joy in your future as well. Be encouraged! You have Jesus on your side, and He will give you a peace that passes all understanding. Continue to stay dedicated to seeking Him out through reading your Bible and prayer. I will say a prayer for you and your precious baby today.


Philippians 4:6-8
"6Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. 8Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable"”if anything is excellent or praiseworthy"”think about such things."

Matthew 11:29-31
"29Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.

Thank you for sharing your awesome story of courage, steadfastness and faithfulness to our Father. You are right, you already have a tremendous testimony. I am thankful for your spirit, your trust and your faith in God. He is truly our Redeemer, Savior and Friend.

What an encouragement it is to read this. It truly has blessed my heart!!

My prayer for you is that you remain steadfast in your faith knowing that there will be more challenging times ahead. But God does not allow anything in our lives that we cannot handle with and through Him. That you and the baby remain healthy and that you continue to sense the Spirit of God in you and around you.
Also, that God continues to abundantly pour out His richest blessings upon you as you continue your journey.

God bless you Promise! You are an awesome woman of faith and a tremendous blessing to all of us here on the board.

In Him,
Howie

Hey Promise:

God alone is your strength, joy, and peace.
His grace is always more than sufficient in all situations. Trust God who will deliver you and honor you before people who are against you and they will know WHO He really is and prasie Him then.

Thanks God for His is so so GOOD all the time !

Promise, I am so happy that things have begun to work out for you! I have been keeping you in my thoughts & prayers. You will be having your precious little baby about a month before I have mine! I know how lonely & scary pregnancy can be. . . even with someone there to support you. I am so glad that your in-laws have apologized & have become a part of your life. Their grandchild will be such a blessing to them & you will be blessed by the help they can offer. If they're willing to help, don't turn them away. You will find you will need the help when the baby arrives.
Promise, if you ever have any questions or just need to tell someone about your worries or pray with you, leave me a post on the board. I don't post often, but I do read the prayer requests. This is my 2nd pregnancy, so I'd be more than happy to offer any advice or pray with you.
I pray that God richly blesses you & that your little one grows up to know & love Jesus!
