Waiting for WAW to come back, patience is a virtue

[ms ladybug]

Happy New Year Dave! And I mean that. This year WILL be better. You NEED to leave your sitch in God's hands and trust that He's in control. It may not turn out the way you want it as God has given us free will, and your wife's heart may be hardened. But, God will see you through either way, and you'll have grown tremendously from it. I know, I don't WANT to grow. I was just fine, thank you.

Max Lucado wrote a book called "On the Anvil" that describes well the pain of God molding us. It's a short book and a good read.

Divorce doesn't mean it's over. I personally know several people who have divorced and re-married the same spouse. How long does a divorce take where you live? My h filed for divorce once before in 2002, and had it cancelled right before the 6mo. waiting period ended. (Looking back, we should have let it go through, but I won't go there).

I'm glad to see you're getting an apt. and raising the kids on your own 50% of the time. That means....that 50% of the time, your wife has to raise them ON HER OWN. Without help from you.

Anyways, I wouldn't give up hope if I were you. Just keep DB'ing, but quit "trying". Leave it to God, and know that to this day, He still works miracles.
