Brooke, Aug 25, 7:57am said it beautifully…

“I’m convinced that it’s when we live out real authentic lives that include our failures as well as our victories that we can be of the greatest use for the Lord in other’s lives. You’ve touched mine today so I say thanks.”

Sarah- I know that the Lord is using the truth to continue to set you free. You are truly obedient. May God protect you and keep you strong and filled with hope that He will use you to touch the lives of all who read this, and may he remind those with unkind comments that this is your story and not ours. He is the only one who can interject and change what you are doing. This is something that you are choosing to explain, what an awesome gift to those who you feel you need to share it with, in your words. YOU AMAZE ME IN YOUR HONESTY!

Suzanne – wow… As a therapist, you sure did throw around your words carelessly. Sarah has painfully poured her heart out here, in obedience to God, and you flippantly call her selfish. You are NOT God. You do NOT know her heart and the fear that covered her the weeks prior to these posts. You don’t even have the courage to leave a last name or link your email address. Disappointing, really.

I truly hope people show you more grace than you have shown here.

For the health of the human race, I hope you don’t treat your clients this way.

Suzanne –

I would love to respond to you, however you did not leave a valid email address.

Please be as brave as your comment and forward me a correct email address for you.

I will not respond to you in public regarding this.

i’m not sure what to think of this series … while i think you telling your story will be healing FOR YOU and perhaps others who allow themselves to stray and find reasons to stray, it all comes down to a person making a very clear and obvious choice to break their vows, disobey god, disrespect their spouse and everyone who has committed to support their marriage. a fraud. i’ll read the rest but, as a therapist, i must say i still see some of these selfish characteristics in the things you post, the tweets you update. serving your husband and your family is something we as wives are called to do. i hope you are learning to draw your boundaries better. i hope too that you are still getting some professional help, as it seems you are still dealing with some of the issues. glad you at least know your daughter is yours … still not sure there was text messaging 9 years ago. brave not safe, as your above commenter said … very accurate.
