I just want to share something that Robert E. Steinkamp wrote. I got it in the mail when I ordered something from Rejoice Ministries. I've printed this out in bright yellow paper and have taped it to my wall, that I may read every night before I go to bed. Hope you all enjoy as much as I did.
Choose to Believe
The thief came a knocking at my front door,
So I told my spouse there would be no more,
"You have the 'escape clause,'" many told me,
I expected after a divorce to be happy and free.
Something's wrong I thought, alone each night,
But why do I hurt when divorce seemed so right?
There is something amiss here when I hurt so,
My spouse sinned, but my tears they do flow.
Over and over the Lord God attempted to talk to me,
All I could do was worry about my mate being free,
Lord, I tried and failed doing it the world's way,
What, dear God, to me can you promise, do and say?
"Dear child, you can choose to believe My way today,
Divorce is not the answer, no matter what others say,
All the prodigal spouses around - no problem for Me,
For them, My son, Jesus, bled and died upon the tree."
"Today take a stand for you marriage to be made new,
With this being alone and hurting you can be through,
The path is not easy, I will lead all along the way,
After I, your God speak to you, what can anyone say?"
So now I am a stander, with Jesus as my best Friend,
Yes, Lord, yes, I choose to believe You to the end,
I believe that my spouse is on the way home tonigh,
Enemy satan, evil one, you just lost another fight!!!
