Day After Graduation

       Last night my son, Zac, graduated from high school.  He leaves on Tues morning for Army boot camp.  I thought that I was going to be a mess last night but praise God I was able to get through it.  I felt surrounded by God's presence the whole night.  My husband and I are having a real tough time letting go of Zac but we know that God is with him and we want to see him fulfill all of God's plans for him.  He says that he knows that this is what God wants him to do.

       I had to sit in between my husband and my ex last night at graduation.  My ex has not been a good father to our children so it is very difficult to be around him.  He always shows up at these special events and acts like it is his place to be there.  I feel like we not only failed at marriage but we also have failed at being divorced.  There is no good way to be divorced but I know that things could have been better.  I feel like he was not the father he could have been because of me.  He still has a lot of bitterness towards me and I think he doesn't deal well with the children because of it.

       Please pray for our family this last weekend that we get to be with Zac.  The younger children are having a hard time letting go (our oldest is in the Marine Corps) again.

       Have a great day,

God Bless, Michelle

My prayers are with you. Divorce is never easy and being a blended family is filled with trials. My own ex let his hatred of me get in his way of being a father to his son. I have to let Christ work through me every time I deal with him, because my own heart is definitely not Christ-like toward him.
Praying for you,
Betty
