β Today's Promise: "Take delight in the LORD and he will give you the desires of your heart." Psalm 37:4

Dear LORD,
You are so good! "Take delight in the LORD and he will give you the desires of your heart." Psalm 37:4
"The LORD is close to the brokenhearted; He rescues those who spirits are crushed. The righteous person faces troubles, but the LORD comes to the rescue each time." Psalm 35:18-19
Well almost 18 months ago I met a man in the treatment centre i went to for addiction and trauma. It started out emotional and then went physical after we both got out. I left my beautiful home and my children to pursue "happiness." I DON'T EVEN RECOGNIZE THAT WOMAN. I RECOIL AT THE THOUGHT OF WHAT I DID.
I thought my husband was awful and neglected me and the man I met only confirmed what I thought.. "The enemy is sheep clothing." Leaving the protection of my husbands spiritual authority was the worst mistake I ever made. My mother in-law had cancer and I even left. How the scales of deception were on me...
I thought my in-laws would never again talk to me and loath me.. When the scales came off (which was very quickly) and the LORD turned my heart back to my husband and children. It was too late, my husband wanted nothing to do with me and wanted a divorce. I have repented, begged, pleaded and pursued until finding RYM (Restore Your Marriage) started letting go and disappearing and beginning my life with my HH (Heavenly Husband)!
Yesterday I went over to my in-laws new home to make amends for the harm I had done. They were so kind and showed me around the entire home, in it was gifts I had given them years ago and even pictures of my son who is not my husbands biological child.
We had tea and dessert and then I wept as I shared how sorry I WAS FOR THE PAIN I caused them and their son and my family (my children). I told them I was contentious, selfish and argumentative and that the LORD had to break me... It was so good and they told me that I could come and visit anytime I like!!! WHAT? I thought they would never again have me into there home after what I had done!
They both hugged as I left..My heart is FULL!! I missed them so much and thought I would never again be in their presence like that! It was Gods perfect timing. Even though my EH (earthly husband) is filing for divorce.. We don't know what God is up to, yet I don't care I am so happy I don't have to see or talk to my EH (earthly husband) anymore. I can truly spend all of my time with my HH (Heavenly Husband)!!
The Lord RESTORED my relationship with my in-laws!! Praise God.
"Take delight in the LORD and he will give you the desires of your heart." Psalm 37:4
He truly did!! It was in His timing!! My in laws believe in the ministry of Jesus of reconciliation. Yet we all say nothing. "Won without a word."
