A Story of Hope

I didn't realize all that this study was going to bring out and to the surface. I wanted to do the study because my first husband was very emotionally abusive and controlling. I did learn a lot because I'm now able to forgive him and put all that behind me. Also, I hurt my kids before our divorce by leaving them with their dad. This is something that I was having a hard time with and I couldn't let go of the shame and guilt I had from all that. The study also made me realize that I needed to apologize to my first husband for all the ways I hurt him. I have been set free. Before, it didn't matter how many times I tried to repent of those sins. I didn't feel like I was really deserving. I'm now spirit-filled and I talk to God all day. I feel His reassurance as well. There is nothing He can't do and I will be leaning on him more and more daily!
