Marriage Healed

Abundant Life has been a true God sent organization for my husband and I. I had recently filed for divorce and was awaiting a court date, when we decided to seek marriage counseling. Of course in our hometown area there were no such services, then we heard about Abundant Life. I called andarranged our first session. It was the greatest thing for us, because for the first time we got to hear each other’s true feelings and were not afraid to say them.

Since then, we have grown closer together and discovered that we are different from one
another and how to accept it. We listen to each other better and are not too quick to jump to conclusions, for now we understand that God loves us and had a perfect and divine reason for putting us together. I thank the Lord above for allowing the staff of Abundant Life to exist, for in today’s world, people need it more than ever. We need to unite and join the Lord in defeating Satan.

P.S. About the divorce – it was dismissed as a volunteer dismissal then thank heavens for that. For our son can live as God intended him to, in a home with both a mother and father who will guide him according to his word. Thank you at Abundant Life, keep up the good work and may God send you many more, so you can help them see and hear the truth. God loves us all.

Where hope never ends and help is always available!
