Answered Prayers

I just wanted to write this for my beautiful wife, Yolanda Cobb. We have been married for a year and a half and it has been quite a ride. However, something changed in her when I went back to prison on this last parole violation. Many, many people have been praying for her and for our marriage. Her whole attitude has gone through such a dramatic change, I simply cannot get over it. I have often said that the most (physically) beautiful person in the world can also be the ugliest. It’s all about a person’s attitude.  Many times I have poured out my heart to God asking him to save our marriage and to change my wife. Once, I actually left her. Many times I started to. I’m glad now that I didn’t leave again, and, once again, I am happy to be married to her.
While I was in prison she gave birth to my first child, a boy named Caesar Micah. I think that changed things a bit, but I know that, ultimately, it was God who changed her. Both of us still have a long way to go, but I am learning to “let go and let God.”
For those of you reading this who thinks that God is deaf to the prayers of humanity, let this stand as a testimony of His love for us and His desire to work in our lives. God is not dead Mr. Nietzsche. Lol! He hears our prayers and He understands what we go though. He is not far from each one of us. All we need to do is seek Him. The Word says that when we seek Him, we will find Him. So, what’s wrong with you? Get to seeking!
Even though you may never read this, I love you to pieces Yolanda, Reakwon, and Caesar. You all mean the world to me. And to my wife, I look forward to growing old with you. Get the rocking chairs ready love, I’m already 30! :-)
God bless you all!
