So, I am going to try to be honest about how I feel without telling anyone else's story. My goal is to not share things someone might not already know. If you read it...it is not a secret.
I have two friends who are in similar situations with very different circumstances and details. These two friends are very dear to me. I care deeply about both of them. One is a heart friend...she is someone my heart instantly connected with. We were supposed to be friends. In a short time, there was just tons of depth to our relationship. The other is integral to my marriage. He means a lot to my husband. He has made Troy's life better. Our relationship is really great as well. We have a lot in common and he knows more about me than most of my girlfriends. All that to say, I really want them to be happy but, more importantly, I really want God's best for both of them.
The similar situation is troubled marriage that has the potential to end. Like I said, the circumstances are drastically different...not even in the same field of thought. What I am finding about myself is that I am praying hard for him and his marriage but while praying hard for her...it is hard to pray for her marriage. I don't know either spouse well and have not had a positive opinion of either for the most part. Not that that matters. God's Word is clear on marriage. I believe His ways are true and right even if they aren't easy. I don't know what my problem is...why I have prayed over and over for reconciliation, restoration and healing for him but am praying truth, wisdom and guidance for her. I firmly believe that God can heal both marriages. There is nothing He can't do. I guess, it is just in the shortsightedness of my vision, I don't see it. I am praying God with correct my vision and my prayers. Show Yourself mighty, Sweet Savior.
