Exchange with Laura

This about sums up where things are in the natural. Praying for big breakthrough. God just didnt bring us this far for us to end in anything but victory.

I will never say that again. i will try and live fully in the present.  I am not content in any way with our relationship regardless of how our decisions in the distant past or more recent past have affected how things are now. I struggle to want to spend time with you as you probably do with me also. We can each only be who we are and not something else. So maybe we live a life side by side and that’s all there is for us if we choose to stay together. People do change and so maybe there is something more for us down the road but for now it is just side by side. I wish I did not hurt you. You are a good man.

You have three times told me that God told you not to marry me. That is an offense to you. It is time to let that go. We are married and in covenant. God ordained it. The decisions of the past no longer matter. We must move forward – together.

We will not go back there. And, I ask that you not entertain the devil’s vile. When you speak that into me, you hurt my heart.

It causes me to run from you. I am tired of you hurting my heart. Please stop.

I am sorry for hurting your heart too. I would never want to do that – not ever.

It is time to love. Put aside the offense and choose love.

Love never fails, and it covers a multitude of sin.

Neither of us has done a good job with this. It is time to love.

I am sorry. Will you please forgive me?

I release you of every offense and every hurt and every word. I bless you and speak life into you.

I love you
