If anyone were to ask me what was the biggest thing I had that pulled me through this divorce I would have to say it was my "Faith in Christ" who never failed me all the way through.

Now, if anyone were to ask me what was the biggest thing I lost in this divorce it wouldn't be material things or things that I did during my marriage, Once again my answer would be Faith, but this time, "Faith in my ex"

I lost faith that he would be there for me when trials and hardships came alone. I lost faith that I could trust him to hold my heart and protect my feelings. I lost faith that he would be there whenever I called his name out. I lost faith that he would take care of our family's needs, not just materialistically, but emotionally. I lost faith that he would always be my best friend. I lost faith that he would not criticize or put me down in any way. I lost faith that I could trust whatever he told me. I lost faith that he would love and honor me as a wife and mother. I lost faith that he would respect me and care for what I had to say. I lost faith in the vows and promises he made to me. I lost faith that no matter what, I would always be a part of his family....
I lost none of these things with my Faith in Christ. I lost all of these things with my faith in my ex. I know there are good men out there that will do their best to try living up to the faith of their wives. I guess, mine just wasn't one of them. But I know what I am looking for in a husband now and I will once again put my "Faith in Christ" to find the man I truly deserve when the time is right.

Just my thoughts for today,
Susan

Susan, you wrote a beautiful message. I always remember when my counselor told me that God was a God of second, third, (etc) chances. I believe in Faith in Christ to help me find a husband or maybe not but to strengthen my faith in Him.

So true Susan, love of faith should be enough to get us through life alone...

Ladies, so well said by all. Thank you again.

Good for you Susan. I echo everything you said about how your ex let you down. I wish you all the best and know that you will find a special man who will give you all that you want and need one day.
