I am happy that you have a new dog!!

Cinders, I was catching up on your thread and wanted to say something. You and I have had conversations about what He wants and how we will find times to be challenging on what we are supposed to do.

You have already done so much more than most.

Let me ask but you shouldn't answer me; just answer to yourself. Have you talked to Him about what He wants you to do?

Have you assessed what your "feelings" mean?

And while I will say no one, i.e. no human person, can say whether your husband will come back, we have no way of knowing whether your H will allow God to work in his life. Regardless of the circumstances or current (or even past) behaviors, no one can say, ourselves included, whether or not H will come back.

The important thing is to listen to Him. If He tells you, Cinders, I love you and I want "fill in the blank" for you, so do "fill in the blank", I would recommend that course. Try not to "lean on your own understanding" Proverbs 3:5-6

We, most of the people in your lives, care about you. We want you to be happy and not to be hurt anymore. Instead, I need to trust in Him to take care of you just as much as I need to trust that He will take care of me.
