Estranged

some families become estranged and their lives become rearranged things are not like they used to be where heartache looms for you and me when families split up and away from them we have grown God adopts us in his family he takes us as his own God is our lifeline gentle and kind there is no one like him that we will ever find when people hurt you and from your life they have to part we can rest in the knowledge that from Gods love we will never depart he is our sure foundation his love flows across the nation I am glad to be free I am blessed God is close to me. Amen you know I will never understand why my mother left home with no explanation it broke us all my dad had a break down to see that at age 13 was just the worst, but in another way I understand she had to go for her own sanity and peace of mind, I have been divorced myself twice as the people involved were just not good to me or for me, some things we will never understand but we know God knows what is best for us, I know its not good staying together for the children's sake it can cause more pain kids are bright and deserve truth and understanding to help get through, with God he brings peace of mind he brings clarification he just keeps us upheld. im not sure why he chose to write about estranged families but I am glad to share my testimony that God is our sure foundation, he builds u back up even stronger than before, he gives us wisdom to help other people in similar situations. he is our rock people in life can change their mind or heart or the way they feel but God never changes his love for us he is forever he is eternal and is always there for us Amen Isaiah 40:11 He tends his flock like a shepherd: He gathers the lambs in his arms and carries them close to his heart; he gently leads those that have young Philippians 4:19 19 But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus. rev 21: 4 He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death' or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away Psalm 21:2 You have granted him his heart's desire and have not withheld the request of his lips words from estranged Tends God tends our needs needs Grants he Grants us peace of mind trades trades our sorrow into joy ease brings us ease erases erase the pain or sin removes us from bad situations stand Stands by our side rested rest in him dearest we are his loved ones

thank you and when trials came in adult life God was good thankfully he removed my x husband before he harmed ay of us, he made death threats to put an axe through our heads and threatened to burn the house down with us in it, Gods protection was just there he removed him from the home with help of some people that came and said he has to go now about 12 people turned up outside with in minutes of been told he has to leave, he got a police caution as was only verbal, but vengeance is mine says the Lord. Amen he has got it and will deal with it in his timing, we were under police protection for one year and he was not allowed to come into Nottinghamshire he had to stay in Lincoln. I've had so much upheaval in my life but God keeps me going strong I am who I am because of him, he just watches me and protects me keeps me singing God bless you
