Grass Widow Legacy
On this Sunday evening, I begin my podcasts of the
Grass Widow Legacy:
GWL20230122 When I gave up on my marriage and at the prompting of my husband,
I went back to my home church. My Pastor counseled with me one time.
I don't remember us addressing my hidden sins or asking about or receiving forgiveness,
or any prompting from Biblical stories on what I was going through.
Only I know what I was going through.
That is, my Lord, Savior, and Christ in me knew what was happening.
I thought I needed freedom from the sinful world I had become a part of
and the only way to get that was to say "I don't love you any more."
I remember my Pastor's reply that I would not be a Biblical widow,
but a "grass widow"
and those words stuck.
Many years later, a dear Saint wrote "The Widow's mite" for the Harvest Gleaner Hour, now "Lifeword."
The past few months, I have been laying down my burdens, remembering Job 13:23 KJV
How many are mine iniquities and sins? make me to know my transgression and my sin.
Tonight my prayer is: Psalm 4:1-8 KJV
Hear me when I call, O God of my righteousness:
thou hast enlarged me when I was in distress;
have mercy upon me, and hear my prayer.
[2] O ye sons of men, how long will ye turn my glory into shame?
how long will ye love vanity, and seek after leasing? Selah.
[3] But know that the LORD hath set apart him that is godly for himself:
the LORD will hear when I call unto him.
[4] Stand in awe, and sin not: commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still. Selah.
[5] Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and put your trust in the LORD.
[6] There be many that say, Who will shew us any good?
LORD, lift thou up the light of thy countenance upon us.
[7] Thou hast put gladness in my heart, more than in the time that their corn and their wine increased.
[8] I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, LORD, only makest me dwell in safety.
