On March 6, my husband and I celebrated 15 years of marriage.
To celebrate the man I married, I’m going to blog for for the next 15 days….
#6
You love the Lord.
I am thankful that God is in your life.
You give God thanks for what he has done,doing and going to do in your
life.It’s a blessing to come home and see you reading the word of God or stealing away to be with him.
I just love that about you.
I love you more than all the tires at Firestone…..
Today I was honored to speak at the Girlfriend”s Getaway Retreat hosted by The Girlfriend Connection in Richmond, Virginia.
My session was targeted around the topic, ” So He Cheated, Now What?” ( the title of my book )
After sharing my testimony I elaborated on 3 lessons I learned throughout this journey of mine. Below is the
first lesson.
“When you lose, never lose the lesson”
#1 – LOVE
The love I had for my husband was deep as a well and
wide as an ocean. It was like a strong force that
wouldn”t quit.This love overpowered the anger and the
hurt.But it only did that because I allowed it to
overpower & choke the hurt.
I had to be a willing participant and allow the love to do it”s work.
Love is powerful. Let it work.
Gotta have love!
A few weeks back a friend shared that her spouse cheated.This couple have been together forever and wear the love for each other on their sleeves,cheeks , elbows and neck. I say that because you can see the love they have for each other. It’s not hidden.
So what happened?
When I found out I was taken back but not shocked. Why? Because I have learned “Never Say Never” . What appears to be one thing can be something totally different when the doors are shut and the curtains are closed. I know this all too well.
Did she stay? Yes. They love each other and have decided to work it out. Good for them. That’s their business.
This is a sticky situation.
How would you handle the news if you were close to both the husband and the wife. Too many times people take sides, even when that person is wrong.
Have you ever been in this dilemma? I would love to know how you handled it.
Stay Blessed
