Hard Times

{From the Archives of Connie's Letters, July 2011.}


Part 1  - Hard Times


Dear Mothers,,,

This writing will be to those of you who are going thru tough times,,which is most of us right ? These tough times are where our miracles will happen,..The hard times are the starting of our miracles..We stand amazed as satan does his work and we think and pray,,"Where are you God"???We pray and pray and our kid is still a knot head and our husband is still a drunk or wont come home or whatever,,Satan seems to stand there happily and we dont see God tryin to stop him..But we are Sarah's daughters of faith and are not afraid with any amazement,,The reason we get so off the Word and off of His will is that we are judging our situations thru the flesh and not thru Gods Word..Gods Word says our husbands are sanctified thru us as Christian wives and our children are holy.,,Our families are set apart for God..God is saving them even NOW ..We have to have a "Knowin" that these promises of God for our families are true,,This KNOWIN in our heart comes thru reading the Word of God and meditating on the scriptures,,i heard this man on tv lately talking about his own Mother,,She lived back in the old days,,He said she didnt have a tv or phone or anything to distract her,,She stayed at home and was a homemaker,,And she prayed all day long as she did her work..She saw many miracles,,And this was how the old time Christian mothers lived,,They prayed until their kids were saved and their husbands were men of God,,Most men who became great men of God had a mother or wife prayin for them,,i know David Wilkerson talked about hearing his mother calling his name before God..Even as a boy outside playing he wud say he cud hear his mother calling out his name before God in her bedroom with the window open,,Lets us be like these old time Mothers and call upon God to save our families.

Part 2   - Ya Got to Get a Knowin'

Oh dear Mothers we will get no where if we keep judging our lives thru
the flesh,,We are part Heaven and part earth,,Our spirits will live forever
into eternity...Our reborn spirits will live forever in Heaven,,This time
on earth is but for a moment ..It is a vapor the Bible says,,Lets live for
our real home in Heaven,,Lets quit looking at this worlds reality and find
the truth which is Gods kingdom,,May His will be done on earth as it is in
Heaven,,God promises us that our children will all be saved and our husbands
too..Its a done deal..Its already done,,It isnt done when your husband walks
the isle at church,,Its done when you get that KNOWIN in your heart,,"My
Husband is sanctified"..He is set apart unto God..!!! We receive our loved
ones to God in prayer,,Later we do see them walk the isle..the truth comes
to them and they are saved ,,But first the miracle comes to Mother on her
knees before the throne of God..She has prayed and stood on the Promises of
God..And Mother gets a KNOWIN that all is well with her boy,,he is safe and
God has His eyes on him..No really good Mother ever sleeps until her kids
are all safe ..Our tendency is to walk the floors until all is well ....And
Mothers heart can never be quiet until all her lambs are in the arms of
the Good Shepard..  love Connie

What wonderful encouragement! There is strength in prayer and I think even stronger when you have the faith that God is doing His work despite what "we see". Thank you for sharing this on the Art of Home-Making Mondays! :)
