Peace of heart with God.....

Praying and asking God for peace of heart within my family and to keep my program going................

My other half has unsettled moments with drinking and I feel myself getting bent out of shape with his problem..... I have asked God to help him and to keep the peace within me so I don't blow up for what I see going on.....

I keep a tight program going within AA and have years of recovery behind me as a good example to myslef........I think about all the times that I have wanted to break away from God and what I believe in withing my recovery.......

God has given me the strength to carry on each day.....I am grateful for that and pray for PEACE OF HEART WITH GOD.......

My relationship with God is very strong.... and I look at it as much stronger than my relationship with my other half at the moment.... I think there needs to be some changes to bring my other half back in my life more... God will help me with this I know and trust...

My other half is trying to make a come back with life... But I see something holding him back... He wants to get closer to God and knows he isn't close enough with the trouble he has in wanting to keep drinking...... I can see it in his eyes....

I want to feel Gods comfort within and know that my life will not fall apart while others I love are drinking around me......

I am doing all I can to stay in the NOW and move forward with all I believe is right........ I have friends that want to help with their prayers and I accepted that...... I also reach out to others to talk to my other half MAN TO MAN to help him out by reaching out to him in their own way...........

I have given the hints and sometimes they take note and other times they don't............... It only lasts a moment.....

I just don't want to be at loss for the one I love......But I know God will take care of him...........

Pray with me that God will make a dent in this person I love......there has to be a bottom in the picture and I know there will be again......

Many Hugs have been given to express that I care and want my family life back.........Please God we need to have Peace of Heart here within the family..........and loads of Hugs

Thumbs up You are in my prayers....

Yes,
you are doing the right thing. Keep talking to God and asking others to pray for you. I too truely believe in the power of faith and prayer. Gratitude is also a very powerful thing because there is plenty of things to be grateful for even though there is a lot of burden.
Best of luck to you!

He wants to get closer to God.

What I have found is the harder I hold onto my sin, the harder it is to turn to God.

Lord help us all set our hands free from worldly things so we can fully turn towards You.

Thanks for the prayers and concerns......

God will help me I know and teach my little one the right way to travel when that moment comes........ as we get older the more we see ...... and the less we want when we know God is more important in our life...............

My little one knows God is important........ That is good and I pray that what is seen in our house with the disruption of one person trying to stick to a recovery program and the other NOT...... will be a good example of right and wrong.......

Please God bring peace in this house and bring the laughter back in the right way and not by drinking............ There is a moment to have fun and a moment to be the parent and adult you need to be when there are little ones around watching your every move..................
