Go for it ,its your wifes fault
if she was not submitting to her Mom instead of her husband
she would be at home ,and you would not have another woman spending so much time with you ,,and she did say "Dee take care of him ",,I heard her say it
I also seen Dee's eyes light up ,,who is gonna know

I did ,,for 7 yrs a 5 min laps in judgment felt like a chain around my neck
and haunted me until I couldn't stand it anymore and confessed
I hoped the amount of time that lapsed ,,and how good the years had been for over 6 yrs ,she would forgive me ,,,,she didn't
And she ruined me over my betrayal ,,,

I knew she loved me ,she was an angel
but to many nights alone while my wife kept working for her Mom when she didn't need to work ,,and a good looking neighbor itching to take her place

And my big brother and his damn advice
When my wife left me ,,guess who was there to comfort her

@SW-User I have been richly blessed by God ,,my kids were the beginning of many blessings to follow ..He is a rewarder of those who truly serve Him

He also healed my crippled daughter who was in a wheel chair for 4 yrs
now her spine looks like she never had a bone disease

I hate how people blame God when He does not answer prayers the way they expect ,,but I do understand ,,it is getting harder to believe and have faith when all you hear now days is God is man made ,the Bible written to control man .
But I was guilty too ,,until I had no where else to turn
And just spoke to Him
"OK if you are real ,Help me ,I have no where else to turn " and He did

I am thankful I lost it all now ,,and even with a bone disease myself
I know who enables me ,and takes very good care of my family

When I am asked ,,,well what about all the other people who suffer and they believe ?
I can't speak for them ,and its not my job to defend God
I can only testify about things I know ,and how He has blessed me
His ways are not my ways ,,and I have prayed a lot of prayers
that I am thankful now He had other plans ,,its my hardships that have built my faith ,,now I know when its a prayer I need Him
or something that He wants me to do ,,we are His body on earth
and not everything requires a miracle ,,just a servant ,willing to listen
and do what He already told us to do
And giving is a huge part of that ,,but it had to be from a cheerful heart
Not one blaming God because they will be short ,,or lack the faith to believe He can do what He said He will do

I am proof ,,,I spent years blaming the wrong one ,,,and I don't mean satan
I mean myself ,,and satan
