First off I must say thank you so much for everyone who already has prayed for other intentions that I had requested as well as this site because it has been so much help. Esp. for me who have come to a beautiful and wonderful point in my relationship with our Lord and Church. Each day I wake up and praise our Lord for calling to me to open my heart and give him myself and its has been so beautiful and I finally am finding that peace. Next week My husband and I are to have our marriage convalidated and I am so happy and feel so blessed. I have a wonderful husband who loves our children so much as well an amazing husband. When we first started dating one of the things that made me think WOW was he would go to mass before he came home from his job at 7 am and he would go to church and his relationship with God. For me although I grew up Catholic when we started dating my relationship was nothing like that for me going to church was something I had to do but wasn’t there as I am now. We ended up getting married by the justice of the peace although we went through Pre-Cana and did everything but the wedding became overwhelming (family) and we just ended up going to the Justice of the peace as the wedding was becoming more about everyone else and not us. I remember seeing that it made my husband sad that we weren’t getting married in church and throughout the years he would always mention that he really wanted to getting married in church … AGAIN for me I did not understand what this was and just put it to the side… Then 3 years ago our oldest DD passed to SIDS (if you check my other posts I had spoke about this) and from that point it was like we switched positions it was me now who was curious about the relationship w/God and Church and my husband got too “busy” to go to church as he is the major bread winner now as I have stayed home w/our children he works 2 jobs for us. He hasn’t gone to church unless it is something he has to do as our kids are in Catholic school or a major day. Although the past 4 mths my relationship with going to Church and God has changed as I never thought I could my husband hasn’t although I encourage him and discuss what I am feeling and how beautiful it is. We did go to our priest and thus is how we are getting our marriage convalidated next weekend and he is happy about it.This is where my prayer intentions come about. Please help me pray that my husband’s heart opens again opens up and he lets our Lord in that he begins once more search for our Lord to feel the love that I am feeling. He is going to Confess this Saturday I told him wouldn’t he want to have a face to face since its been more then 7 years (I had made an appt. w/ our priest ) but he said no he’ll just go to the confesional and do it. Again I don’t want to push him. So if you could please pray for him and for myself that I may cont. this amazing and wonderful journey of having our Lord in my life. Sorry I went a little long on this post thought I needed a little background. Again I thank any of you that take the time to read and pray for my Husband. (well I guess for me as well huh? lol)
