Youngest daughter just called. Said the fella she has been dating has asked her to marry him.
This is somewhat problematic for me, a difficult thing. I pray for my girls everyday tho, and I trust that God will preserve and protect her.
I don't know the guy, just a couple of casual meetings, so I have nothing positive nor negative to say about him.
You just want the best for your kids and I am quite apprehensive about it. She's an adult and I trust her to make her own decisions. They haven't always been good ones tho. We'll see.

For about 2 and a half months I have been praying for my daughter not to marry the guy she is engaged to for the last 6 months, and who she is living with for the last year. I don't want her to get married to him for a lot of reasons.
I never said a word to my daughter about this. I am cordial and friendly to the guy. I have kept my feelings to myself.
About 2 weeks ago she called me and said she may move out, that they are having problems.
She called me about a week later, and said they made up.
I see a crack in the wall, and I hope it crumbles.
I am going to just keep praying. That is more real and has more impact then anything I/we can do.
I am not implying either for or against your daughter marrying this guy, just to pray and be observant. God will revel all you need to know.

Pffff what a day. My dad picks us up every week with his car because I don't have a driver's license and the kids go play there. He came in, normal as always, but he thought it was cold and trembling a bit while it was warm, bit weird. We drove to their place, he forgot to take a turn and he drives so I didn't really watch the road. I thought: I don't know this road. Guess we're driving the wrong way. Let's turn somewhere. He just kept driving. Dad don't you think we're going the wrong way? Oh. He went to a small place, had no idea where he was. Stopped the car and told me and the kids to get out now. But we're not there yet. No you go out he insisted. Why do we have to go out? said my son. He's not angry. We walked there, I had no wallet with me or nothing, called my mom. Both prayed in tongues. There he was 20 meter in front of us, outside the car, had no idea where he was. It was so weird. I had to guide him, he drove on the right side which is for when your car is broke. It was like he had a sudden outbreak of dementia, really scary how he drove. Finally it was too much for him. He stopped the car in the grass, stepped out and couldn't stand on his legs. Had to carry him in. My. Called the police. They drove the kids to grandma and the ambulance took him and me to the hospital. What's this sir? She showed a pen. A thing to put on your nose he said. I had a sudden nervous laughter outbreak. My I have never prayed so much in tongues in one day. Rebuked the dementia, my mom too at home and all of a sudden he was completely normal again. They checked everything, he had 3 awful needles in his back. They thought it was a delirium. My. I'm still shaking. My mom's there now with my brother.
Of course I should never have gotten out and called an ambulance immediately, his other daughter would have done it better since she's a doctor. So weird. I'm so used to do as I'm told that I have a hard time thinking logically myself. The guy from the hospital called. He said can I have your brother? At least he's intelligent. He didn't say that but he thought it. Oh my. What a day. 3 kids in the back, driving like that. There was real protection from God.

Can you believe my parents are already grandparents to my sister's unborn baby and already bugging me about popping out grandkids? I was hoping that with my nephew on the way it might actually make them stop talking about it. Heck, I'm not even married and I'm like, "are you trying to rush me into having kids?" I thought my late grandparents were bad. Golly, they will get them when God says so. Gotta love them for it
