Kathleen Johnson writes, "I heard these words after 12 years of marriage. "I don’t love you anymore. I want a divorce.” With two young daughters, a deeply-held belief in the sanctity of covenant marriage, and a life-long dream of having a united Christian family, I was devastated. As evidence of previously unknown betrayal emerged, overcoming bitterness and unforgiveness felt like an insurmountable challenge for a time. Thankfully, my pain prompted a deeper search for God and resulted in a stronger dependence on Him that catapulted me into a wonderful season of healing, mind renewal, and restoration. God hates divorce for good reason—but with God, there is hope, comfort, and peace on the other side. The LORD is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit." Psalm 34:18
