Marriage counseling Session 7 – Getting a Divorce

The Actual title is “The Cold facts of the divorce decision” I just wanted to make sure I got your attention.

The session started out with us discussing how we felt about divorce and God’s view of divorce. Lori and I both feel that divorce is not a solution to most problems which in most cases can and should be worked out with a lot of hard work and faith. We covered the few topics that we as well as God believe are acceptable reason for divorce (infidelities, abuse and abandonment). We also discussed that one of the reasons we waited 9 years to get married was so we could really get to know each other and who it is we are making this big commitment to. The rest of the session focused on divorces and the consequences there of. The consequences covered the cost emotionally, financially and spiritually as well as the effects on the health of the individuals involved and the affects a divorce would have on our kids (which are planning on having).

Always remember that Love is a choice - you CHOOSE to love your spouse, because when you choose not to - that's when trouble will brew. So even on your worst days together you have to make a conscious CHOICE to still love one another. Even if you don't like one another.
