What if all the things I regard as being of great value were suddenly taken away, with no possibility of recovering them? A young man near the end of eight long years of college and graduate school was stunned when his wife announced she would be seeking a divorce. When he tried to dissuade her, he experienced a blunt, cutting anger that would forever change his life.
On a deeper emotional level, an important part of his identity and future fell into an abyss and evaporated into nothingness. Many tearful moments were spent seeking guidance and direction from God for what could be a meaningful future.
At times it’s difficult to distinguish between anger, frustration, and desperation. The Lord God not only understands, but he is capable of making all things work together for good. The Holy Spirit will help you develop patience with yourself and others as you are willing to heal. Trust him for deliverance and a bright future.

[God’s Spirit] knows us far better than we know
ourselves …and keeps us present before God. That’s why we can be so sure that
every detail in our lives of love for God is worked into something good.
