I am grieving...... - 11/25/03 11:06 PM
Plan B has not worked out as I planned. I had asked God for timing and wisdom and what I thought was a great plan apparently God didn't so things are on hold. It truly is probably for the best as it gives me more time to get myself ready but in the meantime I am grieving my marriage. How do you live in the house with an addict who is NOT interested in any type of recovery. The computer is always on and I come home to find his girls of the day knowing I am not it. Whenever we speak it is hostile and leaves me feeling empty each time.
I was kinda looking forward to the peace and quiet that PLan B would bring - no more outbursts, anger, rude comments, unloving practices and no more internet porn. I felt such peace when I imagined myself away from this.
Why couldn't I be married to an addict who wanted to be in recovery? Why couldn't I be married to a man who gives his life to God? Why in the world did the plan not work out? What am I to learn from this situation? Why did God put up a roadblock for me? What is His plan today? I know it's higher than mine and I know God loves me. I know those things. I just don't feel it today.
I have never felt grief before - as a codependent person I stuffed any uncomfortable feelings aside focusing rather on fixing another person so I didn't have to feel them. Well, as I started my own personal recovery I realized God gave me those emotions to feel. Today is one of those days. I am weary and tired of fighting the principalities of darkness. I am grieving the loss of what I thought was a marriage with two people who loved each other. We were just two people who were dysfuctional trying to set up house. 10 years is a long time to play house.
I need more of God's love today. I need a breakthrough, a sign, a hug, a blessing or just something...just something.
I feel jumbled today - you know when you think you have the plan and it doesn't work..ugh!
I need that grace and mercy to carry me through this problem.
Why does it hurt so much?
Prayers please....
