Lord, how are they increased that trouble me! many are they that rise up against me.
Many there be which say of my soul, There is no help for him in God. Selah.
But thou, O LORD, art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head.
I cried unto the LORD with my voice, and he heard me out of his holy hill. Selah.
Psalm 3:1-4

    Per Your Request...
    Many of you have requested a mailing address for care packages and cards as we ready to leave the shelter for our new home in approximately two weeks.

    Email me and I will forward you the proper address.

    I do not want to post it here, due to my desire for anonymity.

    Thank you for understanding!

    Some of you have asked about homeschooling items we are in need of, too. The preschoolers, first and second graders were using Rod and Staff, but are hungry for any type of age appropriate work.

    The olders were using consumer math books and pre-GED type books to see where they were at and "round out" their last months of learning. The sixth grader is especially interested in science and history, and needs remedial work in mathematics.

    Please, please be honest if you would like payment for anything that you might send! And THANK YOU for helping me continue teaching my children!

    Presently, a crises counselor takes trips to the local library to check out educational materials for the children. But I admit I miss the worksheets, pasting, workbooks and other fun stuff to do with the littles and even correcting the olders' work!

    Imagine!

    Have a beautiful weekend!

    I know I have some stuff around here, at least for the younger ones. What age/grade are your older ones in?
    Here is an e-mail I hardly use, please delete it on here after you use it.
    I'll look through my stuff and send after I get your address. Do you guys need Bibles? If so, what version do you prefer... I have lots!
    Still praying for you!

    I was reading another blog where someone had posted a link to your blog. I don't know your name, where you live but want to help you and your family. Please send me an address where I can send some things to you and your family.

    What things do you need for homeschooling? I do remember something about you sewing. What type of sewing do you do? Hand or machine? What types of things are you and your children interested in?

    My email address is blessedsister02@yahoo.com.

    Covering you in prayer,
    Dixie

    Sunday, August 17, 2008 - Hello I just came across your blog

    I just wanted to say good for you for blogging about your experiences, I will be praying for you. I have a friend with 6 kids who recently got out of a horrible abusive marriage. She was down at times as I am sure you have been. And they went through some tough times during all the hearings etc for both a case filed by the DA as well as the divorce stuff.

    I went with her to every single thing I could. If you have anyone who can be there to support you I am sure it would help you to an extent. I will be praying for you and your kiddos. My friends case came out well, and I am trusting in God to do the same for you.

    Good for you for doing what needed done to protect yourself and your children. I in NO WAY believe that God wants anyone to live in a situation like that. And another thing I am not shocked at all by the refusal of the church to help you. Too often the church, from all denomenations, just looks the other way and does not want to get involved, but what they don't seem is that by not doing anything they are making it easy for children and women to be treated this way.

    Also to your comment on thinking about getting rid of the dresses you wear, I know the church has failed you, but then has your choice of dress ever been to please the church or has it been because of your belief in what God would want.
    God Bless you and keep you
    Hugs
    Amy Ellen
    P.S. would you mind if I posted a link to your blog on mine. I think many others would benifit from reading your blogs as well as many inspired to pray for you. I did the same for my other friend.

    How did it go yesterday?
    Do email me with your address....and let me know what you are looking for right now. I will gladly draft off copies of my dress patterns for you and get them sent when you send me an address. I just sold off most of my extra schooling things, but will look to see what I have here that you could use. Not sure what is left really.

    Email me!

    Carrie,
    I finally got to the post office yesterday and sent a package for you. Didn't have time to include a letter as I wanted to.
    I will look in the attic for some text books and send them along if I still have them.
    Praying for you and the kiddos-cling to His promises
