My friend said my life is like a Tyler Perry movie. I must say I think he’s right because you can’t even make up the stuff that happens to me. In spite of it all I chose to smile today. I took the dog that my husband walked out on for two walks. I did yard work and some yoga. Most importantly I prayed.
There are a few people in my life that are sticking with me through the craziness. I love and appreciate them so much! Today’s events were borderline crazy as far as marriage drama. What’s done in the dark always comes to light.
Yesterday the Holy Spirit told me I would see my husband at the library. Today it happened. I must again reflect on God’s love for me even through the pure hell I’m going through I know this love. My husband doesn’t want me to know his address. I also endured this during the first separation. I cried for weeks driving up and down streets of multiple cities, but God kept me. He kept me from completely falling apart.
I watched my husband drive away with my staff through library windows. I’ll spare the Internet the crazy details. I decided to drive to my office rather than drive up and down streets. I pulled up behind a car with a license plate of TKIT2GOD. Take it to God. I just began to laugh. God is trying so hard to move me beyond worrying. I think I’ll just free fall into grace and peace.
I started my day with prayer and exercise. I felt myself coming out of the fog of depression that overshadows me. It changed my day.
There is a song by Kurt Carr called God Kept Me. It’s my testimony. Joy is sometimes so very hard to find, which makes it even more precious.
So I’m here today because he kept me. I’m alive today only because of his grace. God kept me. He kept me. God’s mercy held me close so I wouldn’t let go.
May the joy of the Lord be my strength and yours in abundance. Amen
