For my husband. He is stuck in a very sinful lifestyle, drinking, lying, staying away from home all the time. The Lord has told me quite specifically what kind of plans He has for my husband and this was 6 years before I ever knew he existed (hubby, not God). He's so full of self-justification and pride that he doesn't think he's doing anything wrong. However, I feel that deep in his heart of hearts, he knows that he has to come to repentance before the Lord or he won't be allowed to take part in any of God's promises. In my dreams last night, I heard him calling out to the Lord. In the dream, he was on the front porch and I was in the living room and the front door was open so I heard him. He was crying and praying for God to forgive him and deliver him. I don't remember the exact words of the prayer but I fell on my knees and began to pray with him. And then, I woke up. I feel that God is getting ready to do some amazing things with him. We watched The Passion of the Christ for the first time Saturday night and he told me yesterday that he wanted to watch it again before I took it back to the library. Pray that God would use the movie as a tool, I think he already is, to convict his heart and cause him to see his selfishness.

Thank you so very much. I love you, my friends! God bless and Agape, Annie


LATER:
He is watching the movie again as we speak. He's not as engrossed as the first time we watched it but we know that God's word does not go out void! The first time God spoke to me, He told me that I would be a sunday school teacher and that I would be married to a preacher. I thought that I had gotten saved that day but I now realize that God was simply informing me that I would be His. I went on to commit terrible sin and even to deny God for several years, all while thinking I was saved because the preacher had told me to repeat after him when I went to the altar. After my husband and I had been dating a while, we were sitting around the supper table at his parent's house talking about God and religion. His mama said that he had been called to preach when he was a teenager. Imagine my surprise! Especially considering the lifestyles that we both had been living. We got married a few months later and God gave me a truly repentant heart and saved my soul just a few years ago. Now, I am starting to see that what God told me will come to pass. I just don't know what we'll have to go through to get there. But, I know that He holds our very breath in the palm of His hand. I will wait upon Him.
