The LORD puts people in our path who he feels will be an asset & not a hindrance to our trials & tribulations. "He never promised us there would not be pain, He just merely promised us that we would come out at the end unstained"!
I have been blessed with (2) very new close friends (never met them before this) who have gone through what it is I am exactly going through. And both of these guys have listened, provided perspective, and remained neutral about the entire sitch. Which means they do not hold any hatred toward my W in the least bit. Which is exactly what I need. Of course I want to give a "shout" out to the great people I met on here recently since I joined as well, and am continuing to look forward to how they handled their sitch.
I have also learned that continuing to "BETTER" myself has to be for me, whether or not W does decide to come back! I firmly believe that the Lord has led me down this path (i.e. Here, DR, RMM) for a reason, because our M will be restored. But that will not be until he has had a chance to paint his Ultimate Masterpiece and work on each of us individually first! Who would want to go back to the same old M as before anyway?? I know we all think we do, but in actuality a better/stronger/more loving M is what we actually want. And unfortunately (or is it Fortunately) we have to go through events like these to have as Starsky puts it "A Wake-Up Call"! Otherwise we continue to go down the same old rabbit hole, continuing the same destructive patterns.
But, what do I really know? I am still learning, as well as trusting in the Lord's promise each and every day.
