Comments for Me, Abbie http://abigail777.wordpress.com Struggles of a Christian mother/wife with just about everything Fri, 10 Oct 2008 23:26:05 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=MU hourly 1 Comment on Midnight blues..part 2 by Pamela http://abigail777.wordpress.com/2007/03/26/midnight-bluespart-2/#comment-37 Pamela Tue, 17 Jul 2007 01:51:02 +0000 http://abigail777.wordpress.com/2007/03/26/midnight-bluespart-2/#comment-37 My sweet friend, I am one that failed. I too was married to a minister. I gave to everyone and had the same thoughts you do. I have been told that God never gives you more than you can handle. So than why couldn't I handle it anymore. I was tired, oh so very tired. I had nothing left to give. I have now remarried, attend school and take care of my husband and baby. I lost much though, I have 3 other children who, may agree with my dicision to leave their father, but decided to live with him. (By the way he is a blazing alcoholic and no longer carries a ministerial license.) My only advice is this; you are crying out for help and though I am now far from the "truth" I offer this. Where does your help come from? It is time for you to stop giving so much of yourself (because God isn't asking that of you or you wouldn't feel the way you do) and run to your strong tower and be safe. Even warriors need rest. It is time for you to emerse yourself in His holy love and get rejuvenated. Don't give up, just rest and truely be His child for a while. Climb up into your Father's lap and rest in Him. He will tell you when it is time to go and do "His" work and not the work "you" think He wants you to do. My sweet friend, I am one that failed. I too was married to a minister.

I know the feeling - I felt the same way when I first got married and moved away from my parents. If it's something serious, you should talk to your husband about it - maybe he wants to go back to Europe too! :) Good luck. I’m sorry you’re homesick hun.

I'm not sure you cash that overseas. But we'll see. I need to talk to them this weekend before they go off flying to another exotic location for 3 weeks. I’m not sure about a money order.

Just your worrying about this proves that right there. A failure wouldn't care what happens to them or their family. Surely there's got to be a way around the $35? Of course, I don't know what country you're talking about or the rules, etc. A money order wouldn't work? Those are typically 90¢ from the post office... :\ You’re not a failure!!

That would be a pain to pay 35$ every time to wire money. I'm trying to hang in there. I'm just really really low today. I feel like a failure as a mom, wife and just a person :( I’ve thought about that but not sure how that would work with it being international.

Have you thought of asking your parents to buy the house outright then paying on it to <i>them</i> instead of a bank or mortgage company? Hang in there!

I just wish sometimes, that the way would be a big chest full of money..hahaha! My mother in law helped me out and my parents did and will again so I got my miracle. I am going to be so much more careful now. We want to buy a house that we saw. My parents said something about helping us when we wanted to buy and now I'm like...hmmmm. We'll see. It probably won't happen but we shall see. I have no idea but I do know that somehow God has a way. I just wish sometimes, that the way would be a big chest full of money..hahaha!
