OMG, Moo Shoo Dork is my football comrade? Kevin, what's up with that awful name?
Gabe--I've been meaning to follow up with you after my last depressing post. I went back and want to clarify that I didn't mean the spiritual marriage wasn't there... just the sacramental bond.
I'm also happy to report that I've seen Father's intuitions come to life on my very own movie screen this weekend. It's reassuring to know that I'm not crazy and that the reason we are where we are is because HE chose this. He chooses to remain stuck and with an unforgiving heart.
And I absolutely see the divine intervention at work--where just maybe, the Lord is releasing me from a vow which is not honored, wanted or accepted. A week ago, this thought brought me pain. Now it brings me hope, because I see the value in keeping my faith alive.
Quote: I remember praying last Nov to be back home and able to read S6 bedtime stories and say his bedtime prayers w/him by his bedside at night. It struck me ~ 1 wk ago while doing so, that my prayer had been answered, just not like how I expected or hoped.
You remind me that this is such a beautiful thought. I'm humbled by this notion--that our prayers are answered though they come gift wrapped in newspaper instead of fancy wrapping. How do you feel about this, Gabe?
Your D and mine were finalized a week apart. It's comforting to know that I have company on this path.
Gabe, you are an amazing guy. Merrick was the one who turned me on to your threads, and I must say you've made an amazing transformation through your time here. I find your faith and hope contagious--as it challenges me to continue to seek for the same in my own. Thank you for the gift.
I'm glad you guys had a good time in Vegas. It's good to have happy stuff to think about, for a change. I look forward to reading more of this happy GAL stuff you have planned.
Some woman is going to be really fortunate to land in your lap some day. You have so much wonderful here, and I can't help but think--no, know--that it's going to have marvelous results.
Hugs,
Betsey
