Hey Solo,
What happened to the old wife?
A sad, long involved story. But in a nut shell, we are not any longer together. It is difficult for those who are not devoted to God to understand the ways of those who are. I was not saved until 7 years ago. I went to church for 5 years before she began to go with me. But that ws sporadic at best, but I held on and prayed. But we kept growing further and further apart even though she admitted I was 10 times better as a husband. I cannot do any better than that.
I want God to guide me in all my decision making and it was not so for her. She has dissolved our relationship and it is no more. We are now not married. I went through much pain and agony trying to save our marriage, I am not an abuser, verbally or otherwise and I like her personality too, nor did I preach and bang her over the head with the bible.
She did speak to my pastor once but would not go back. She would only speak to those who agreed with her view of the world and how to live. Everyone, including my pastor, which totally surprised me, agreed we should split, because it may, in the long run cause her to have a change of heart. I don't see it. But sobeit. It must be. Now, though I can have a wife who is not only beautiful, my ex wife is very pretty, but also loves God along with me. Someone who will pray with me and won't curse me for going to church and for paying tithes and offerings, and will pray with and for me.
Amie is that one that God gave me. And I am so thankful for her, that she listened to God, and thankful to God that he is so merciful.
