Returning to believing in God's promises

The last few weeks have been wonderful and confusing in terms of my relationship with my husband. I was convinced that God was opening doors to lead me to divorce him, then all of a sudden the doors were closed. I was confused and bewildered. Richard contacted me and we had a long conversation. He began to call me and make an effort. I am very weary and leary. I even told him that if he wanted me because Lesia doesn't want him anymore then he was not pursuing me for the right reason and this should end. He said that was not the case. I am struggling to believe him. More effort on his part...more struggle on my part. His efforts are small, baby steps...my struggle feels greater than it probably is. Then today, I see this Joyce Meyer post... "You can't have real love unless you’re willing to forgive. Love keeps giving the other person another chance, and it keeps trusting them over and over again, expecting them to do the right thing the next time." I guess this is God saying keep on with the chances. My promise to you that December afternoon was reconciliation. There was a time when you quit believing that, not completely, but close to it. You have returned to your spiritual base and that has made you stronger. Continue to believe.
