Book Description
She had married thinking that life together would be forever. Why would she think any differently? All too soon, she learned that life was one where the man that she thought she had known was fast becoming a stranger. As the days turned into decades she found herself in a life where she had been and was living one way for Jesus Christ, while he had abandoned his relationship with Jesus that he had led her to believe he had. In its place she found a man whose life consisted of alcohol, adultery , abuse and lies. Therein also abandoning the relationship with her and their family, while living in the same home. She lived her years in silence, never telling anyone. Sooner or later it would come for him to a point of his last destruction or repentance and turning to the Lord. There would have to be a choice. She had no idea what he would chose. She knew that in the decades of life that had made no sense, where confusion reigned and pain lived, where others had always been invited into her marriage and lately when she was gone, he had invited them into her bed. She couldn't go on any longer. She had promised till death us do part, but he had killed them a long time ago. She learned how church doesn't like the word divorce and yet won't talk about the other words either that are called abuse and adultery. She learned that she was called selfish but yet no one asked what she had to say. Like a lamb led to slaughter, she stayed silent. He had trained her well. Eventually, she finds her husband standing before her giving her a choice unlike anything she had heard. In all of his sin, he didn't qualify to give her an ultimatum but he had given her one. It was one that she would need to answer immediately. As God led her through the wilderness for all those years, the story she shares is one of life where Jesus reigns and protects her, leading her through in His love and faithfulness while destruction pours out around her. It is her story of His love, freedom and redemption in Christ.
