The days may feel bleak with no light or peace, the constant turmoil of swirling emotions, and all-consuming thoughts of did I make the right choice? Nothing right now is easy, your mind is foggy and you feel out of control. It is hard to concentrate, see things as they are, or feel ok. It is ok to not be ok during this season. Divorce is a complete destruction of everything you once were familiar with becoming undone. It is the forceful ripping of two people that became one apart. It is a physical, spiritual, emotional and mental pain like no other.
This day take today and try to live in the present, with one foot in front of the other. Breathe and start letting go of it all and let God (your higher power) in to heal all that is broken inside of you. It is not a sprint, there is not a timeframe to healing or feeling ok, there is only you and how you need to heal. God has a plan and purpose for your life to do you good not harm. He is not running away from you during this time but toward you. He is not looking at you with disapproval or judgement, he is loving you even as you sit in this pile of rubble from your life at the ready to rebuild.
God is ready to bring you back home, he knows exactly what he is doing and will not abandon you and when you call on Him, he is always there. He will take this divorce destruction and turn it around for your good. Lean in on Him and ask him to show you those gaping wounds you sit with and allow the healing to start. It takes time and you will not be able to address everything at once, so be gracious with yourself.
Jeremiah 29:10-14 The New King James version
