Bible Note: Greetings Tara1! Thank you for that addition.. As most people know, I love a post that is filled with sources such as Bible Dictionaries and Topical Bibles! I have used all of the sources before that you mentioned in your post, and found them all equally good for their occasion and application of use. If you wouldn't mind, I just spoke with a friend of mine on the telephone, who lives 300 miles away.. He has a friend named Tracy who once professed Christ as Lord and Savior, but has since became estranged from both the Lord and from his wife.. He is now having an affair with another woman, and he and his wife have a few children. My friend Britt, who called me, faced a similar situation back in 2000-2001, when I met him. But he and his wife have been back together since July 2001, when Britt and Kathy and I prayed together for their marriage. To date, Britt and Kathy now have a newborn son, and have built a new home. I still encourage Britt from time to time, and he needed that special encouragement again tonight. I pray for Tracy, that the Lord would use Britt in much the same way that he used me with Britt and Kathy, to renew their marriage. Please keep Tracy and his wife and children in your prayers. Blessings to you, Makarios |
