Love and Support
It’s late.
I’m tired.
Long day at work.
But before I go to bed, I just wanted to say THANK YOU!!
On Monday I sent out a tweet asking for prayer. Yesterday I had posted a blog titled Life as I knew it. The support and words of encouragement that I’ve received has really helped to get me through this.
I’m not sure what the future holds for me. I have to trust that God has a plan for my life and that I’m a part of His will. I’m ashamed to say it but there’s been times where I’ve doubted God. I’ve felt like he’s left me alone. I’ve yelled and screamed at Him asking where He’s at. Questioning why this is happening. Questioning if He even cares.
If God is so powerful, why would He let my marriage fail?
The best answer I can come up with? Because He gave us free will.
I guess that might have to be another post.
So back to what I was saying earlier…
Thank you!
I really, truly, honestly mean it.
And if you’re someone reading this that is going through the same thing, please tell me. I want to know your story. Or if you’ve gone through this already, I would love to talk as well. If you’d like to talk, please leave a comment or contact me.
I’ve watched you struggle through this almost from the start. By your own admission you’ve been selfish and done stupid things. Who hasn’t?
I’ve also seen you strive to do what’s right and make right decisions. I’ve seen you be devastated and still chose to love and forgive. This is the kind of “love your neighbor” the Bible talks about!
I’m really sorry you couldn’t find reconciliation in your marriage. You tried. Emma will know you tried. She will know that it wasn’t your decision to add her to the statistics of little girls from divorced homes.
Emma will know that her daddy is a man of integrity, who admits his mistakes and chooses to be held accountable for his actions.
You may not have control over whether or not you get a divorce, but you have complete control over your actions and choosing to be a good dad! And that, you certainly are!
