In this nonfiction story, the author's view of God's help, beginning with her faith in prayer, and continuing with a descriptions of the way God answered her prayer, along with her sure sense He would and that then that He had. Here love for her husband is evidenced throughout.

    Thank you for this review and the accompanying stars.
    Thank you also for your comment that the affection for my husband was apparent. You are quite right of course, he was the only one for me.

This is an excellent story. Many times our prayers are answered exactly as we would wish. Sometimes they are answered in other ways. I'm so glad your family had those 15 years of security.

Very good story. I believe it covers the prompt definition very well. Your story reads easy, with good clear flow and keeps moving quickly enough to keep the reader interested.

There are a couple potential issues below:

{The next day was wet, so I was busy for most of it getting jumpers dry and keeping the house warm. From somewhere at 4.30 in the afternoon

I picked up an Advertiser, Adelaide's morning paper and turned to Sits Vac (Situations Vacant) that is.}--When read on the page there is a line break in the middle of the sentence. I also don't quite understand the second sentence ending on "that is" Im not sure if it should be in the brackets or if there is a word missing.

{To this day I wonder what our lives would have been like without the safety of that Government (government) job.}--I believe in this case government should be lower case (I could be mistaken)

Overall I really enjoyed your story and I appreciate you sharing!

    Dear Dolly, Thanks for your review and five stars.
    Yes, the job with the government was a huge blessing, coming at a time when my husband was getting on to middle age and with two sons to educate and see into the world. Praise ye the Lord
