MY ROAD TO RESTORATION
A few years ago I felt mired in decisions that were changing the course of my life. But through prayer and increased reliance on God, I began to see a continuity of good.
After more than three decades of marriage, my husband announced he was filing for divorce. My first reactions were fear, shock, rage, and panic. Although we'd suffered various difficulties in our marriage, and I did think from time to time it might come to this, I knew deep down that my husband was a good man, and we'd built a life together based on common interests and shared values.
