Just wanted to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving.....
We have so much to be thankful for even tho our families are in disarray, but I know I am thankful for so many things that God has blessed me with...
And that is my heart being healed from the craziness of MLC...
When I fisrt came here I was looking for a magic pill or the magic words or actions for my ex husband to come home and that things would go back to normal....but that hasnt happened.
What has happened is MY happiness and that I can laugh and enjoy life again.
For all you who have been here for a short while...I can tell you it will get better and your heart will heal but it does take time put your trust in God and he will see you thru..again Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving to you too.

We all have so much to be thankful for.

For those traveling, please be safe and enjoy the holiday.


Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to.
The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.

I will probably get 2x4's from certain people, but I believe God has asked me to keep standing, even after all these years....(and you know who u r..lol) but I believe it with all my heart I have tried those dating sites but BUT in my heart I hear "wait dont do it" I truly believe that is the Holy Spirit speaking to me it has happened several times....so I back off from them.I am lonely at times and I would love nothing better than to have a friend I could go out with to dinner or a movie but i just cant do it....
My life is very full of happiness with my family....it has been 6yrs. since B/D but I do call myself a STANDER. I am 58yrs.young been married, my whole life, I dont want to start all over again at this time, maybe one day God will release my heart to love another like I loved my husband, but for now I am happy with my life, one more thing....I beleive with all my heart that the reasons most marriages never reconcile is because they stopped praying for it....just my opinion.....

Not from me.
I think it is because most people give up.
Keep living your life for YOU!

Happy Thanksgiving Irma! smile smile smile

Wow what an insight -- but to stand when they are remarried I gotta tell ya that takes some strength !!!

Somedays when I get weary it is hard to pray I have to remember to do it no matter what !!!

I agree Cadet, it is easier to give up then to keep on trying, so much easier to give up!

I recently saw a testimony about a couple who divorced and got remarried, it does take a miracle for it to happen, but Jesus performed miracles when he walked on this earth and he still does...oh you bet it is hard praying for my ex, especially when he has remarried the o/w.
But my concern now is for his salvation, I still do love him and I pray God will reignite the love we had for each other but, I am not putting my life on hold.. I do this because it's the right thing to do...if we EVER do reconcile that will be from the fruits of my being faithful to GOD not to him.....
Takes alot of faith for me to do this but I must do it even if he never returns.....he was my friend, my husband for a very long time and dont you pray for your friends when they are in need? I know I do...Irma
