But on the other hand, I hope that my website will encourage healing for your heart. I'm honored that you've taken the time to meet me here and read about my experience.
2 Corinthians 1: 3-5 says, "Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God. For just as we share abundantly in the sufferings of Christ, so also our comfort abounds through Christ."
Two years ago when I found out about my husband's addiction, I never imagined that I would be in a place that I could encourage women walking the same road. I couldn't tell which way was up, it felt as though my entire world had turned upside down. In confessing, my husband said he felt as though a heavy load had been lifted off of his back. I felt that it had been transferred to me, my heart ached because of the betrayal. I lost trust in my husband. I grieved for the marriage and life that I thought I had.
Do you feel like you're carrying this same heavy burden?
I don't claim to have all of the answers or to be completely healed of this storm in my life. But what I know for sure is that Jesus has the answers and that only He can heal my heart and yours. He walks alongside us, ready to carry our heavy burdens, if we release them to Him.
Matthew 11:28-30 says, "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light."
Another thing I do know for sure is that my husband and I are in a much better place than two years ago. I'm grateful to God that He has done a work in each of us individually and as a couple. To God be all the glory, honor and praise!
I also have another article running with Proverbs 31 this month, it's posted in two different places on their website.
It's the third article when you click here:

Or the second article here: http://www.proverbs31.org/everydaylife/everydayLife.php
I'd love to pray for you, answer your questions and blog about topics you suggest. I encourage you to read my past posts and let me know what you think. Please let me know how I can make this ministry more effective. It's my heart's desire to provide encouragement and hope that healing for your heart is possible. It's all possible because of Christ. Thank you, sweet Jesus.
