What I have been afraid to say.
There are no words to say what these last few weeks has been like. I have been hibernating and trying to make sense of my life and the crisis I have been facing. I have been trying to wrap my mind around the fact that my husband has left me and the kids. Actually I asked him to leave because he was too much of a coward to walk away...so I gave him the easy way out. No effort to make amends ever arose from him, to mend what was broken, as he has found someone who loves and cares for him. What a kick to my heart.
The hurt has threatened to break me and reduce me to ashes, but I am still standing through no power of my own but by the strength of God and a support team of girlfriends that won't quit.
I have spent 15 years of my life loving someone, and it has all gone to waste. I have never been here before and I am grateful for my kids and all my family who have rallied around me. No words can adequately say how much I have been held and supported through this time.
Now I must be strong for my children and face the future not alone, but with God near to me. Thank you to everyone for being so understanding and patient with me. As I get stronger emotionally and mentally you will hear more from me and all I'm learning through this time.
Cheers Lisa x

I will be praying for your strength as you go through this very difficult time- I now it's not an easy time, so happy you have a good relationship with God.
ReplyDeleteYou are in my thoughts and prayers. The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise. Psalms 51:17. At such a time as this,He is carrying you through. Through brokenness is when God has scooped you up, wrapped you in His arms.
ReplyDeleteLisa, I'm saddened to hear this. My heart goes out to you. Please know that dark moments such as these don't last. There's always sunshine awaiting you. You're going to have both good and bad days dealing with this. But keep in mind, that GOD may no longer want you with this man. This may be a blessing for you and your children. You don't know what is entailed for his future. Where you may have tears today, you may be the one laughing at the end. Sometimes we don't understand why we're going through things now, but it becomes clear later on. You're in my prayers doll.

hey ma'am, I will keep you in prayer. I wanted to share a scripture that I always repeat when I'm going through anything. It's Psalm 37:24 'Though I stumble, I will not fall, for the Lord holds me by the hand.' He is always with you, no matter what situation you find yourself in. >>hug<<
