I am a divorced woman, and I have been divorced for 18 years. I did not want a divorce; nevertheless, here I am feeling once again like I lost my soulmate.

If we are God’s children, then we need to learn how to let go of our own will and let God do what He Wills. When we become this submissive, that is when He pours into us His perfected Peace, Joy, and Strength so that we will be able to endure life’s setbacks and hard times.
Just like the outmoded 8-track tapes and audio cassettes, Christian annulments and divorces are making marriage seem as if this God-established institution also has become obsolete.

Believers (Bride) ONLY are faithful to the Lord when they are loyal to their wedding vows. Entering into a marriage contract with the Lord without seriously counting up the cost could mean that this person, or persons, might end up in a hasty divorce that has eternal implications!
