In my Saturday morning Bible study, one of the guys said "we're going to pray for your wife's healing right now, and you're going to text her that we did".

What?????? That's crazy. W doesn't need healing, and she definitely doesn't need anyone praying for her. All the problems and mistakes are mine. She's just fine. I thought about how much this text would tick her off. My friend ask me why I even cared. I just got divorced!!! Great point. I sent it. No response, and if that's the last text I ever send her I'm cool.

I feel such a freedom now. Things are moving. God is speaking to me. Some hard decisions are being made. And today I asked a girl out for the first time in 8 1/2 years. She said she was busy on the night in question, Christmas coming up and all that. It definitely wasn't a complete rejection, there's no hope "no". I feel alive again.
