God is good. He uses our perceived devastation to bring us to Him. I've been the definition of the lukewarm Christian for 20 years. After finding out about my Christian wife's ongoing affair 2 months ago, my relationship with God has grown to a place it has never been...but sadly should've. She knows she is sinning but is in the addiction phase and can't see it. My patience is tried every day with texting in front of me, and other flaunting of the affair. I keep being returned to Eph 5.25..."husbands love your wives as Christ loved the church, sacrificing himself for it...." and I say what has Christ done for me? Well...for 20 years I've spat in his face, turned my back on him, walked away....and what has his response been...."Come back home...I love you." May God continue to bless me with the patience I need to still love my wife the right way while my emotions (Satan) try and drag my into the mud as well. May I be there to wash my wife when she comes back from the pigpen and know that my sin is no lesser than hers and that my covenant with she and God was forever...regardless. May God stir her heart and open her eyes and bring her back to Him. May he shield my children from this issue and make us a stronger family for it. May I continue to walk in the Spirit and the Light and avoid the darkness and flesh that seeks to grab me. Please Jesus...place your hand upon me..
