When you want the Lords help with something, pray for His assistance and guidance, believe He will help you, and then google the topic/question/etc. You will see sites, blogs, books, etc. on the topic/question. Review them. There will be some of these resources which will speak to you more than others. I believe these resources which will have you saying things Thats exactly what I am going through! or THIS is what I am looking for! are Gods answerswhole or partialto your call for assistance. Save them to your Favorites, next thank God, and pour over and through these resources to help you.
I have just done this on a topic that actually has permeated most of my life: how to enjoy life while waiting. Thats what I googled earlier this morning, how to enjoy life while waiting. Four sites went into my Favorites, and I thanked Him. I started reading the one that contained the advice, Dont let waiting lead you. Two months ago I googled Waiting on God and was lead to an incredible Kindle book which I purchased. (As you can tell, waiting is not a strong trait of mine.) My current wait is leaving my current and hellish job and into one from an old field of mine. I have several companies I have been in post-initial contact with, two of which I am waiting for the next level of interviewing, to meet the boss boss.
In this part of the forum, we are all here because of divorce. Maybe it is divorce in general you are dealing with or a part/sub-topic of it. Pray for Divine help, google the topic/question, review and listen for the speaking resources, save them, thank God, and then go through the sites, buy the books, etc.
Just as I was writing this message, I got the notion that perhaps God has been/is using my needed job change and all the associated waiting to help me with my divorce recovery. This April will be two years since my ex said she wanted a divorce, no man in her life, and to live with [her] parents. She made this declaration while I was on the cusp of eviction (which by His grace and help never occurred.) Since late October 2013 when I started sending out resumes (and even before that when all the work negativity started increasing) my mind was focused on buying books on my old field, reading a book on job interviewing, redoing my resume, applying, interviewingeverything job related. Virtually all my mental focus was/has been on this job stuff (dealing with the current one through prayer and Scripture reading, and all the fore-mentioned activity for the new one.) I did occasionally think about my ex and did have a crying bout during the holidays, but for the most part my mind has on the job scenario and the resulting positive things from a new position (like more personal time and a better work environment).
God is good!
