Prayer request

Hello all! I'm new to this site. I'm asking for a prayer request for God to guide me to my true life path. Since I've been researching how polygamy is present in the bible, it's weighing heavily on me that it's an important calling. I think about it everyday. How great it would be to have more children than I could on my own, to have help with children, a true friend, extra support when times get rough. I imagine how lonely I would be in old age if my husband were to pass first. How hard it would be to share the most important man in my life (second to God of course), to deal with the jealousy of seeing him love someone the way he loves me, not to mention what I'm sure would be inevitable personality differences. We also don't live in an area where polygamy is present at all to my knowledge. My husband and I are young, in our 20's (he is 4 years older than me), we have been together for 5 years and married for 3, and have two children ages 2 and 8 months. I'm not asking anyone to say go for it or don't, just asking for prayers that God will lead me to the right answer for our family.
 
So glad you are here, and may you find answers, support, strength and peace. Try real hard to get on the Tue night Women's chat which starts @ 6:30 pm CST. It helps to be amongst folks who are on the same path. :)
 
Welcome! So great you're asking for prayer! I wish I remembered to ask more often. "If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you." James 1:5

I'm a husband. And want to thank you for thinking so kindly of your husband like this and your forward-looking strategic planning. I'm confident God is drawing you to the best people/relationships at just the right times. That said, no need to be overly concerned about loneliness. God doesn't want us ever singing a melody alone! He's constantly working us "into his most excellent harmonies." Philippians 4:8-9
 
Welcome
 
So glad to have you and your husband on the site. I hope you will get some good info and develop many friendships here. Blessings!
