Well it's been a couple of weeks since I last posted on MB and I just have to say Hey and all is well. I have really recieved a peace and comfort of hope from God over the past couple of weeks. He has helped me so much. I have finally reached the point that I have totally placed my trust of my life , including my marriage (what's left of it)in Gods hands. I have experienced myself trying to take back parts and it ends up a mess! He has taught me that I cannot do it and I have to allow him and put all my faith in him to work things out in his time, not mine. I hope maybe this has given someone else some direction on how to deal with their troubles. I will not say that everything is ok and my heart is fine but I know who holds tomorrow in His hand!!! His will not my will be done.

I took me a little over three months to come the same realization you have come to.

September 1999 - to - November 1999.

And over the last 3 1/2 years...
...my relationship with God has strengthened...
...and has given me all I've needed.

Developing your faith...
...is developing you. (i.e. Plan A and Plan B)

Keep looking to HIM, b/c you are right. You are on the SOLID ROCK now! No slippery slope, and no quicksand.

WHEN He's ready, HE WILL WORK according to your faith and HIS WILL!

God Bless,

I am in the process of forgiveness of my WW. I feel so much better and others will too if you can start this process. I know she is human and I love her as God loves me and forgives me. I know that she will have to figure out what it is she is looking for. The one thing and the best thing for me is to keep my eyes focused on God and search my life for my faults and weaknesses and with Gods help repair them. Hey, if God decides that we should be back together, she will be amazed at the person I have become in Christ. My children will also benefit greatly from this. I will also recommend to others starting the divorce or seperation process to keep from pointing your finger at the WS and examining their faults or wrongdoings. It tears down respect and burns bridges. This is a huge mistake I made. I am trying to refrain from this in the future. Love and compassion is Gods way!! The only way.

Ya'll pray for me! At 9:00am I have what is called a statis hearing. I think it is due to the fact that my WW filed in march and has done absolutely nothing since. My lawyer said that the judge does not like things sitting still. My lawyer also said he will probably order us to mediation which we had scheduled a month ago and she and her lawyer called and cancelled. I personally don't mind things sitting still cause it is giving her time to think about things but we need some sort of parenting plan for the kids. That seems to be the total root of all our conflictive conversations. Plus the kids feel like the are dragged in the middle of all this sometimes. Gotta go, Ya'll have a great day!!!!
