I had a very intimate talk with my husband and apologized and asked for forgiveness for my bitter heart. WOW what a difference it has made between us. And I had a very quiet time with the Lord as well. Your post about this book helped to heal us. And I look forward to reading Amy’s book now.

Lundie,

I’m glad you wrote this entry in the manner that you did. At the time she made that mistake I also was suffering from the pain of my husbands choices with our marriage. We had split up and my heart was broken. Our song is one of Amy’s and it broke my heart to see her make the choices that she did. As a new babe Christ, it confused me to see that someone I thought was such a long time Christian could allow themselves to get into that kind of position.

I admit that I judged. My opinion of her dropped dramatically. I’ve not been fond of her ever since then. I felt let down. This woman who sang “Our song” has given up on her marriage. She violated her marriage. It hurt me terribly.

Praise the Lord that He forgives, as should we. But some things are harder to deal with, when your own life has suffers such a tremendous blow. What she did, happened to me and words cannot describe how it makes the other spouse feel. When God says that they shall be as one flesh. And it gets ripped apart, it hurts, it injures, it scars. Injuries can heal, but scars remain. They do fade, but they never entirely disappear.

When I see someone who has done that to their spouse, it’s a reminder to me of my pain. Then I look at my scar. I can forgive, yes, but pain takes time to heal. As does my thoughts towards those who inflict it on others. Now that I’ve been so entriely transparent with my pain and my sin of judging, I’ll go pray. You have been the only one who could ever open my wound and draw me to a place of wanting it to have the antibiotic ointment applied to it. I’ve just never allowed that to happen. I’ve covered and protected my injury and now I must take it to the Master Doctor.

Thank you. many tears are being shed right now. And I need to have a long talk with my husband after I meet with my Savior.

(((((hugs)))))))))

You see, you never know what a blog post can do for someone. ;O)
