Thank You for unanswered Prayers

19

It was all about you, nothing about our 5 children together or the child that you should feel responsible for being on drugs now. Or the 12 year old that you never even blinked as you walked out the door.

Your drugs, girlfriend, and freedom was more important than the wife and family that was down on their knees begging God to bring you home and get you help.

But Thsnk You God for unanswered prayers. He knew what we needed before we did. Thank you for telling me you didn’t know if you loved me anymore after 15 years, thank you for showing people exactly what and who you are including myself and our daughter.

Thank you for relieving the chaos, constant nonsense of never having peace, and it always being about you. Never having a constant home, vehicle, and stability in our life. Thank you for staying away from our daughter even tho you have missed out on an incredible young lady. Thank Jesus my older children had a father and grandparents that are good honest people who love my children. And Thank You Lord again you never let them give up on my children.


When the times I didn’t want to live with out you now I don’t want to live life with you. I know longer miss you, love you or care for you. With God’s help I see what and who you are and have always been. And I don’t want anyone to see me like that or in the likes of that especially our savior.

So thank you for giving Jesus the opportunity to give me peace, a great relationship with my children, and a love for myself that I can honesty say, Thank you Lord for unanswered Prayers and giving us a life that for the first time in 19years I can say God will answer your prayers, sometimes not the way we expect. But isn’t Jesus Christ great. Hes always on time and he always knows what you need.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
