Today at church, the priest spoke about doing the hard things that help draw us closer to God. He gave two examples of things we might consider doing.
1. Work towards rebuilding trust with someone who has broken it.
2. Forgive someone who has wronged you and move forward with your life and your relationship.
Ouch.
Tough pills to swallow for the wife of a recovering addict.
I haven't forgiven and I don't work on trust. It's easier for me to not forgive because it gives me a sense (false sense, perhaps) of protection against addiction. It's easier for me to not notice when Husband is being trustworthy because then I don't have to put myself in a place of vulnerability.
Things for me to consider...
