I’m Going Home
Farewell, vain world, I’m going home
My Savior smiles and bids me come
And I don’t care to stay here long

Sweet angels beckon me away
To sing God’s praise in endless day
And I don’t care to stay here long

Right up yonder
Christians, away up yonder
O, yes, my Lord
For I don’t care to stay here long

I’m glad that I am born to die
From grief and woe my soul shall fly
And I don’t care to stay here long

Bright angels shall convey me home
Away to New Jerusalem
And I don’t care to stay here long

Right up yonder
Christians, away up yonder
O, yes, my Lord
For I don’t care to stay here long

Right up yonder
Christians, away up yonder
O, yes, my Lord
For I don’t care to stay here long

This is exactly what I needed to hear as I deal with family issues. I really feel that my husband is being brainwashed by people who are filled with hate. He has blasphemed against God. He sees what’s going on in the world and now believes that there is no God who will save us. It is breaking my heart because here I am trying to teach my young girls to trust in the Lord and to stand firm. How do I stay with a man who spews hatred. I’ve just sat here and cried after watching. Now I am praying that God will deliver him and give him a Saul to Paul moment. I cannot do it without God and I’m not sure how long I should stay in this house. Please pray for us and for my husband.

Beau,
God bless you with grace and peace in abundance.
I will not pretend that I can understand or feel what you are going through right now.
Consider that in all our day, we wait for and trust in our Savior who lives in us.
He will show you the way, although it is not usually as soon as we would like.
““In returning and rest you shall be saved;
In quietness and confidence shall be your strength.” Isaiah 30:15
" And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.” Romans 8:28

I got hit by an SUV this morning on my way back home, i was at the 4 way stoplight intersection facing north and i was on a 2 way left lane and at the green light it was me and the other car’s turn to turn left well she stopped on her lane and a SUV passed the red light going east and hit my car damaged the driver side and front but my car still runs just wasn’t safe to drive it, i’m ok and thank God their AAA auto insurance had full coverage to cover the damage and rental car but i still don’t understand why didn’t my guardian angels stop them from hitting my car… i have an Angel Visor clip and Archangel Michael photo underneath my angel visor clip. It’s been a long morning talking to their insurance claim department then had my car towed to the collision shop and then had to use Uber to make a few trip because Enterprise Rental cars didn’t have any cars, my reservation is next Thursday to pick up a rental car so now i have to pay Uber to get to work then back home… i don’t understand why God allowed this to happen?! I don’t know… i am just thankful i didn’t get hurt and my car didn’t get totaled… i did ask a few people i met today in all this if they know Jesus and they said yes… i could use your prayers please that Enterprise Rental Cars will have a car available sooner than next Thursday because that’s covered til my car is fixed. :pray:

p.s. the driver and her husband that hit my car are perfectly fine just a small dent on their big black SUV.

I know there has to be a message from God about why he allowed this to happen but i’m not hearing from God right now… i hope to hear that still small voice soon.

Wow so sorry to hear dear sister. I would expect you though to have that license plate :slight_smile: Glad no one was hurt. I wanted to post several verses…but i am have some tech issues today. Wanted to at least get this post up. :slight_smile:

30 Significant Bible Verses About Suffering - Essential Scriptures (biblestudytools.com)

Please remember dear sister that the events down here are for us to wear in all eternity as glory. So like
2 Cor 4:17 “For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all.” The troubles we have down here are for us to wear in weighty glory forever with Him. That is the way i see this verse telling us of troubles and trails. So the more trouble…the thicker the eternal glory…i reckon :slight_smile: He makes us into His image and grants us to wear a car accident (like in how we glorified Him in that in our hearts) like a garment of weighty glory that will “forever” be yours…whereas the car accident is temporal lasting days or weeks in its trouble…we get to wear trouble in glory now (because of His provision made for us), forever.

Its a pretty cool thing of His heart in blessings us as we walk in His sufferings transforming into His image (Romans 8:29–close to your Ty Green vs :slight_smile: ). With a heart toward you like Ephesians 2:7:

“so that in the ages to come He might show the [k]boundless riches of His grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.”

PLUS

You get to have that designer outfit of how you glorified Him in your heart in this accident event and He makes that temporal trouble into an awesome slice of your eternal wordrobe…for a trillion Saturday Nights yet had. Pretty Amazing Heart :heart:

Thanks for sharing your heart with us.

Oh my goodness, Beau, what a terrible position you are in. Me and mine will be praying for you and yours. I wish there was something I could do, some advice I could offer. The only thing that comes to mind is a passage from 1 Corinthians. I pray that our Father will use His Word to speak to you. If not with this passage, with another He puts in your path.

1 Corinthians 7, ESV
13 If any woman has a husband who is an unbeliever, and he consents to live with her, she should not divorce him. 14 For the unbelieving husband is made holy because of his wife, and the unbelieving wife is made holy because of her husband. Otherwise your children would be unclean, but as it is, they are holy. 15 But if the unbelieving partner separates, let it be so. In such cases the brother or sister is not enslaved. God has called you to peace. 16 For how do you know, wife, whether you will save your husband? Or how do you know, husband, whether you will save your wife?

I don’t pretend to understand this passage but I’d be willing to bet Pastor JD has taught on it. You might try looking into his sermon archives if you’re led to do so. One last thing, Beau, I urge you to keep you and your girls safe. I come from a family that accepted violence. No one should ever live in a violent situation.

May God bless you and keep you and your girls.
:heart:gr

Oh, dear Stacey I am so glad you are o.k. God was certainly with you even though you got hit. Your trial is still a mystery, BUT GOD will give you an opportunity to let His light shine and that, my girlfriend may be worth it all. Praying for you.

P.S. this may be a good post to put under prayer requests for everyone to notice and agree in prayer for a quick end to this trial.
