I can't say that I necessarily yet feel "grateful" all the time for this situation but I am with you - it has made my relationship with God stronger than it has ever been which I am SURE is at least part of the reason why this is happening. Hopefully my H will come through it with a strengthening of his faith, too.
It was good to hear a reminder about how I am still a wife in God's eyes and will carry on. I know I pray a LOT that my actions/reactions/words will be the right ones because this is something that is so changeable.
It's great that you feel a burden has been lifted. Must mean it was the right thing to do!:)
