Thank you for that powerful prayer, we need to pray more often for the children.
The last part of your prayer is just like a section of the book I was reading about forgiveness, how it is a release for the person who was injured. When Jesus said that prayer on the cross God ceased to hold the sin against those who put his son to death. That if we dont' forgive our WAS is like we are tied with a rope to them.
And then I realized that I still hadn't truly forgiven stbx for walking away on the children and me. He doesnt deserve my forgiveness, but I give it to release him and to be able to live without his having a hold on me.
ok , a bit more from the book: '[about a woman with a WAH]...her anger was not affecting him one way or the other. She was wasting her anger on him when she should be angry with herself for allowing him to control her life. The greatest insult was not the fact that he had left her. It was that she was still holding on to him with her anger long after he was gone.'
Be not afraid...I will repay you for the years the locusts have eaten Joel2
