“Lysa you have verbalized my own inner turmoil as my marriage died. Your thoughts and struggles echo mine. As you work through these horrible wounds, questions, traumas, thinkings that are born out of betrayal I can totally relate. I so appreciate your honesty because you are sharing the cries of my heart and sharing scripture and truth that is bringing healing to my mind and heart that have been so hurt snd confused by my former husband. I was married 33 years and have 6 children. I wrote devotionals for Provetbs 31 ministries online years ago. Like you, I NEVER thought I would be divorced. I so appreciate your honesty in sharing how you felt and what you had believed that held you back from moving forward and healing. I just found this podcast and I am feeling more free and less burdened. I too tried to hold my husband, marriage and family together. I met for Christian counsel and was told if I continued to try to hold onto my husband marriage and family that it would destroy me. My OBGYN recommended the best marriage counselor in my city. I met with him, I didn’t even know if he was a Christian, he told me that my husband was “evil” and that I should divorce him. This was the LAST thing I wanted to hear. I wanted someone to help me fix my marriage. At the end of my marriage I was diagnosed with RA and Sjogrens. During separation the financial and emotional abuse caused arrhythmia and I had to have my heart shocked back into rhythm. I developed AFIB and arrhydue to literal physical scars on my heart from the stress. This past week my inflammation levels are in the normal range after 6 years. I am meeting with surgical cardiologist to discuss a going to discuss a 3rd ablation on my heart to hopefully heal my heart so that I can stop heart meds and be free of the heart issue. It has been 6 years since I first found out that my husband was having an affair. 3 years since I was divorced. Less than a year since alimony was awarded. My ex and I have a son who has Down syndrome and we will co-parent the rest of our lives. He is living with the woman he had an affair with. To say I need your podcast is an UNDERSTATEMENT! 😂You have really helped me, Lysa. As you have been devastated I have been devastated. One night I was lying in bed listening to you share how you at one point were in the fetal position, and I burst into tears. Because I felt that depth of pain and sadness and grief. And my ex seems so “happy”. He tells me he is in the best health of his life. But as you reminded me “sin comes with consequences”. Thank you for this podcast that is giving me a ladder to climb out of this deep tragedy. Each podcast is another rung I can grasp and stand upon and move up and out of this emotional and might I add physical pain. I am a survivor. My ex tried to destroy me—but God protected ma snd provided for all of my needs! I am thriving. I was a homemaker:homeschool mom wife of a CEO. I’m now a single mom teaching at a school for special needs! I teach at my son’s school. After my kids were grown I wanted to write and do art. I have sold paintings since my separation! I’m off this summer for 8 weeks and am going to focus on being creative. I’m tithing and have no stress in my finances (though my ex made 6 figures there was always financial stress). Stress was a common denominator in all areas of our lives. I need to celebrate all the victories and all of the miracles that God has done for me. I just wanted God to take me out of this trial, to heal my husband and marriage. But instead I learned what free will means. I learned about betrayal. I had an epiphany about how God feels when people that He loves walk away from Him. My initial prayer when I realized my marriage was ending was that I would not be a bitter and resentful woman. Thank you for addressing all of my issues and struggles and helping me through this. I went through a hard marriage that became destructive. But I was not destroyed. I look forward to living again. Thank you.”
