Friends,<P>This is a re-post of a response from me to someone on the divorce board several days ago. I decided to re-post it here since it might help others facing a marriage crisis, separation and/or divorce know that God does NOT turn his back on us.<P>Even when forced into divorce by our spouse, this is NOT the end of our marriage in God's eyes. He can and will restore our marriages to what He wants them to be, IF we do our part, stand firm in faith and do not turn our back on Him.<P>However, He chooses to work on us, teach us, and help us grow for a time first. It is important to remember that He sets the time, we do not. This change and growth seems to be in a way that we could (or would) not do while with our spouse, often due to our having refused to listen to His Word and/or our being outside His Will for some time (I am guilty on all counts here).<P><BR>Here are the locations I have found so far on the internet that might be helpful to people in some way that are standing for God's restoration of their marriage.<P>In my opinion Dr. Harley's methods and materials still can be of help when standing. If you are not already familiar with them, I suggest reading all of the information available on this site. At this time I personally am unable to do much with it due to no contact. But I have read the books several times and have the forms ready for the time I am able to use them.<P>I suggest you visit all of them I have listed here, some are more extensive or useful than others, depending on your personal needs. I believe they all have Email and/or regular mail contact information posted on their sites.<P>I hope this is of use to you. As I mentioned before I still have much to learn myself, but offer you my prayers and support.<BR>Ron<P>Covenant Keepers, Inc. - Home Page <A HREF="http://www.covenantkeepersinc.org/" TARGET=_blank>http://www.covenantkeepersinc.org/</A> <P>Heart Menders Ministries <A HREF="http://www.heartmenders.org/" TARGET=_blank>http://www.heartmenders.org/</A> <P>Rejoice Marriage Ministries <A HREF="http://www.rejoiceministries.org/" TARGET=_blank>http://www.rejoiceministries.org/</A> <P>Restore Ministries - Healing Marriages <A HREF="http://www.restorem.org/" TARGET=_blank>http://www.restorem.org/</A> <P>Family Dynamics Institute: building loving, committed relationships <A HREF="http://www.familydynamics.org/" TARGET=_blank>http://www.familydynamics.org/</A> <P>Family Foundations International <A HREF="http://www.familyfi.org/Main-family_f.htm" TARGET=_blank>http://www.familyfi.org/Main-family_f.htm</A> <P>Married In Christ Ministries <A HREF="http://www.marriedinchrist.com/" TARGET=_blank>http://www.marriedinchrist.com/</A> <P>MKA Ministries - Offering Hope through Jesus Christ <A HREF="http://www.mkaministries.org/" TARGET=_blank>http://www.mkaministries.org/</A> <P>Grove Marriage Restoration <A HREF="http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Grove/4160/" TARGET=_blank>http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Grove/4160/</A> <P>Marriage & Family Savers <A HREF="http://www.marriageandfamily.org/" TARGET=_blank>http://www.marriageandfamily.org/</A> <P>Life Partners - Discipling, healing marriage relationships <A HREF="http://www.lifepartners.org/" TARGET=_blank>http://www.lifepartners.org/</A> <P>GTO Family Ministries, providing marriage books, tapes, articles <A HREF="http://www.marriages.net/" TARGET=_blank>http://www.marriages.net/</A> <P>
