Answered Prayers From This Novena
Thank you for the St Augustine Novena The wording was elegant and clear. It allowed me to have a very directed intention.
I left my verbally abusive husband 2 years ago after being together for 30 years. I had been completely demoralized in the marriage, but I had stayed, praying always for God’s grace. God spoke softly to me allowing me to leave the relationship. Since then, I have allowed God to be present in my life.
My husband would not grant me a divorce, and it took the past 2 years to fight him in court. God has provided me with everything I need!
God has blessed me with a moral and tireless lawyer. People often ask me how I can be so calm given my ex’s terrible behaviour they have witnessed since I have left him. I know in God anything is possible.
I prayed the Novena, knowing God’s plan is perfect.
It worked! It looks like my husband will be signing the papers. I stood fast on my intentions and I will donate to my church the money I received in this divorce according to God’s will. I have total clarity in this plan as God’s hand is guiding it. I have shared with those around me how clearly I have believed and the calmness I have when I let go and let God.
Thank you for the Novena! God Bless You! Living in God
