There are allot of positive things that have come out of this negative situation.

The bible talks about praising God when we are going through trials because he uses these times to make changes in us,he test us to see how strong our faith and trust really are.

I never really understood that until now,he has been trying real hard to teach me paitence,my faith and trust have gotten stronger and I am much more patient than I have ever been.

There is no question God has used this to make me a better person,I don't know if my marriage will survive,but I am going to keep having faith and trusting that his will is going to be done.

My wife is a believer also and she knows what the bible says about how God hates divorce,our S12 goes to a christian school and has read scriptures to his mom about divorce and commitment,she didn't like it but I know she heard it and I'm sure it is weighing on her.

She does need her space and does need to find her identity,but like you said divorce is not the road to happiness,embracing what she has been blessed with and growing as a person while still being a good wife and mom is where she will find true happiness,but she has to figure that out for herself,I will just keep being a good friend and keep working on that patience thing.
