so many of us have experienced those life-changing moments when we realize a dream is about to die...
specifically, when the dream of our marriages die.
when the only seeming certainty is a pending divorce decree and the complete upheaval it brings with it.
what we once thought was our life is forever altered and the absolute shock and trauma of it can be staggering.
how do you let go of a dream that can never come true?
the only answer i've found to that question is God...
He is the only One who has everything we need to survive the death of a dream.
healing, restoration, protection, counsel, refreshment, encouragement, unconditional love and acceptance and most of all ~
hope.
our Abba Father gives us hope to carry on, to pick up the pieces of the broken pictures of our lives.
He gives us hope not only of healing and restoration, but the ability to still believe in Love...
that it exists.
that others have it.
that it takes faith to see it
and work to keep it.
that Love alone, is possible.
that 'this too shall pass'
that the pain gets less
that hope does 'spring anew'
that life hasn't passed you by
there's more and more.
that the children will heal as well...given time.
that trusting someone doesn't always end in grief...in sorrow.
Love is possible.
did you know?
do you believe it?
are you hurting?
are you learning the painful lesson of letting go?
that we don't always get what we want because we don't always know what we need?
that your divorce doesn't define you?
that life can shine most beautifully when it comes after death?
that this isn't the end of your story, just the closing of a chapter?
Love is possible.
whereever you are today, please know that each day, each moment is a brand new beginning.
you can start again.
you can be the proverbial Phoenix that rises from the ashes.
you can be the blossoming of Spring.
you can be whole.
you can be new.
you can truly live again,
but most of all...
you can love again.
because
Love
is
possible...
