Hi Brothers & Sisters,
I just wanted to share some good news. Some of you will recall the relationship that I was in. While I wanted out of it because it was a sinful relationship, it felt like a spider's web - the more one thrashes, the more entangled one becomes.
About 3 weeks ago, God laid a very strong and intense conviction on my heart that "Now is the time." From the relative point of view, it was the hardest thing I have ever done in my life because it felt like I was being asked to cut out my own heart. HOWEVER... God provided what I needed to obey Him, and I am RELATIONSHIP FREE!!!!!!
For three weeks, the other person would try to talk me back into bondage, but thankfully, God was merciful, and He kept a tight grip on me. The final goodbyes were said yesterday as the person finally gave up.
These past few weeks have not been without those times where the flesh lashes out. There were days that were emotional roller coasters. There was a lot that obeying God required giving up - things I had become accustomed to. This has definitely been a walk of faith, AND God has been faithful and true every step of way.
I am so happy to finally, FINALLY, be free of this relationship. God is awesome!
In Him,
John
