Thank you, Charlyne, for your honest and heartfelt testimony and teaching. I listened to this when I first received it 6 weeks ago. I agreed with it and I prayed along with it. Now listening to it for the third time, I appreciate even more that grief and anger are given a place in your teaching on this process to bring my husband home. I knew from the moment I was blindsided after 43 years of marriage with my beloved saying No to staying with me, that God immediately said Yes to my prayer that I might know Jesus and the fellowship of His suffering. I’ve believed from that first moment that this was on God’s calendar for me since I first came to know Him 27 years ago. Now 6 months into my stand, I’m seeing that in the last month I have had some outbursts of anger that weren’t there before, so I know that the Lord has to deal with the bitterness that’s trying to take root. Prayer is the only way for the Lord to remove any bitter root of un-forgiveness that wants to grow up against my husband and spring up against my family. The Lord has to deal with that sin in me so that I can join whole heartedly in intercession for my husband. Bottom line… 1. Listen to this teaching… 2. Pray prayers from God’s word… 3. Repeat 1 & 2 as often as needed and be encouraged.
