Just wanted to thank each of you who posted encouragements. Yut and I hung out again the following week and talked about Jesus and faith for nearly 3 hours. She seems very close to accepting him as Lord! I’ll probably post more about that soon. Thank you for your prayers!

just reading in Isaiah recently, “The people will declare, ‘The LORD is the source of all my righteousness and strength.” — I encourage you that compulsive and addictive people can be changed (me for example)…because addictive behavior swings both ways- if the husband’s addiction becomes Christ rather than drinking or gambling, God could do mighty things through him.

Hi. I’m not sure how I found your blog, but I have enjoyed reading about your thoughts and expereinces. I wanted to encourage you on this one. Often, when I felt inadeqaute to minister to someone because I couldn’t relate or understand thier situation exactly, I would think of Jesus. He misitered to prostitutes and the lame, something he never was. On the outside, He would seem very inadequate indeed, but inside, He had a power from God the Father. You too have a great power through the Holy Spirit. He is enabling you to comfort the broken hearted. I will pray for you. :0)

You’re doing excellent work there Sara. I will pray for this situation. The only ting that comes to mind at present is to give this woman (and her husband) a book about a powerful testimony. “Samuel Morris” is a good one. God bless,
