Bible Note: Hello Runnin4mylife! Our stories are almost identical. I know your hurts and needs in a very real way. Although I am 43 and we didn't have any children, my husband also had an affair and a boy was born 8/01. He has been in jail since 1/01 because of his drinking. I stood by him during the 18 month affair and drinking binge, when he totaled his car, lost his leg due to trying to jump on a train while being drunk, the lies, etc. I also know that when I married him he said he was saved and acted accordingly and now says he isn't and probably never was. I know that although he says he has no desire to go back to the other woman, she has made it known she wants him and purposely got pregnant in an attempt to get him. After the last 3 years of heartache and suffering (it began summer or 1999( I have chosen to end our charade of a marriage. I have prayed earnestly and openly and have sought godly counsel. I am at peace with my decision. I will pray for you as you seek God's face. |
