People who have been truly in love but later got divorced for reasons beyond their control feel hurt for a long time.
The hurt could be as a result of time and emotions invested, circumstances leading to the divorce, and many other factors that may not be listed.
Divorce hurts and it takes time to heal genuinely and thoroughly.
No sane person walks down the isle with a plan for divorce in the future but it does happen.
By this, I'm not referring to those who jump in and out at will, those whose motive is to catch some fun for as long as it exists and are ready to hop on the next cruise as quickly as they hopped on the previous.
Marriage is a covenant of commitment between God, man and woman, a three fold cord difficult to break.
It is primarily to fulfill God's purpose and that's the reason God is directly involved in intentionally match making his precious sons and daughters.
God holds the future. He knows the five, ten, twenty years down the line, He knows what He has built each partner to carry and He matches people perfectly.
When people select a wrong partner, God speaks through a lack of peace, red flags, other people and sometimes through big bold billboards. He does this so His children can retrace their steps. God has never been silent at any point, even His supposed silence speaks volumes.
God hates divorce, even though He doesn't hate anyone who's divorced but He wouldn't want any of His children travel that road. It's too painful a journey. Too much is at stake.
Sad as it is, the rate of divorce has increased drastically. Satan is already working overtime to ensure his agenda of disrupting God's purpose through marriage is accomplished.
For those who've made mistakes in their marital choices and are already in, may God give them the grace and wisdom to navigate.
May God bring healing to the hearts of those who're already divorced because that was the only option they had left.
May the comfort of the Holy Spirit be with them in the name of Jesus Christ.
Amen!
