Dealing with divorce

Christian marriage does not end in divorce. Wrong. Sadly, for an increasing number of Christians today, it does. It has now become my own experience after over 30 years of marriage.

I married my husband ‘for better or worse’ and I would not have left him, however hard it was. One night I discovered he was having an affair and when I told him he had to decide if he was going to stay and work at our marriage or continue his affair he chose the latter and said he was going.

What do you do then? I remember I had to go to work the next morning, after about two hours’ sleep, and deal with members of the public all day. I rang a Christian friend and asked her to pray for me. I finished my late shift at work at 8.30 pm that night and thanked God for keeping my mind intact and helping me through an unforgettable day when the awful reality of my situation was beginning to dawn on me.
