Hi all, new here.

My name is Ian i came from Scotland and i now live in the states.
Since I've been to the U.S I've started to feel safe with being who i am, and man that Knows! That Christ is real. But it took me along time "Fully" take it in because i geuss i felt i was alone in someways.

a year ago my Wife had taken sick she had a Anurisum and we where told she only has a 5% chance of making it, and even if she did chances are she would not be the same. That day when i got home to change clothes and go back to ICU i got on my knees and asked God to save her, and even take my Life for hers. and started to pray alot Two weeks later i get a phone call from Scotland, while my wife was in a Coma, that my father past away. I did not feel sorrow as much i would have thought i would have, i geuss i was to busy thinking about my Wife.
My mother in Scotland said that my father was saying not long before he died, i wish my life could be taken to save Ian's Wife. My Wife made a 100% recovery not longer after his passing.

it's almost a year now since my Wife had her Anurisum, and the passing of my Father. I had this Deep dream that i was back in Scotland, with my mother and father, and my Uncel who use to drive us everywhere. and me and my mother got out the Car, but my father stayed in. He told me, my Uncel is going to drive him upto Heven, and i started to cry, i kist him told him I'm sorry for everything i had done to him in the past. i Woke up and Sorrow PURE Sorrow came over me, and now i am moaning his loss. I ask Christ to always look after him, and tell him how sorry i am for everything i have done, and not being there to say goodbye.

do yous think My father knows all about my Dream or was it's Gods way of me having that monet to say goodbye???

things have been Tuff for me, but ever since i have acsepted Christ, before they have gotten to bad, something pops up to make life a little easer. And I'm just sorry i haven't had the chance to know My God-My Hero-My King longer before now.

Hello and Welcome Ian!

So glad you joined us! I’m sure you will like it here; there are so many wonderful people. If you need any help getting around check out the FAQ section (located on the top bar). This should help answer any questions you may have.

What a amazing testimony about your wife!!!! God is truly a God of miracles. So sorry to hear about the lose of your father though. My dad died three years ago and there are so many times that I still miss him very much. I'm no expert or anything but I believe that dream was a way for you to be able to say good-bye.

I just pray that with the passing of each new day you will see a new side of God, a fresh revelation of who He is in your life. I am so glad you found your way to us. I'm sure you will make a lot of friends and will grow tremendously here.

Hope to see you around. Have fun and be blessed!

Hello Ian and welcome to CF! What a wonderful testimony you have. Thank you so much for sharing it.
I would say that your dream was an assurance from God that all is well with your father and I am sure that he has heard your prayers. Take comfort in knowing that your father loved you and forgave you for anything you may have done. Rejoice in the knowledge that God healed your wife and give all honor to God for it. Praise His holy name.

WELCOME ABOARD CF, IAN

Hello, Ian!

My name's Margolit, and I want to extend a hearty and heartfelt welcome to CF Forums. You will find, as you no doubt have discovered from these posts, kind and caring people here, ready, willing and able to help you, answer your questions, provide support and, when needed, pray with and for you.

The Dreams and Visions forum bfly mentioned, is in the section headed Edification. You'll also find one for Prayer Requests there as well. As you will soon find, there are also many support forums. The FAQ on the top line of the top bar Col303 mentioned is extremely helpful.​

On a personal note, I, too, lost my father, about three years ago. He died while I was enroute to see him. I was told when met at the airport that he'd died just 3 hours before I got there. There are still many situations and times that I really miss being able to talk to him and/or my mom, who died 3 years before that. But each day gets a little easier and less painful.​

I, too, believe your dream was God's way of giving you some closure by saying good-bye to your father, and peace in knowing that he knows your heart. And that your father is at peace knowing that his prayer was answered. He indeed loved you very much!​

There are many scriptures you can draw from when things get hard. When it happens to me, two tried and true that help are Jer. 29:11 and Matt.11:28-30.​
