Infidelity, It's Nothing New To Our Day...

Infidelity has been around for a very long time. It kind of makes you wonder why a hard learned lesson keeps happening over and over again, almost like no-one has even been hurt or ever learned from their mistakes. When my ex cheated on me, I felt like I was the only one in the world who had been touched by such a horrific act. I didn't think about anyone else going through it, except for what I was going through and how it was affecting me and my children. I think that sometimes we get hurt so badly that our world just stops spinning and nothing else seems to matter. Truth be told, infidelity is nothing new....it's been around as long as forever. What makes someone want to hurt another person so bad and still think it's ok? Have we not learned from our mistakes? I will remember when going into another relationship, that we are all just human, and underneath all the love, there will be mistakes, but honestly, if it ever happens again, I will just have to decide to live my life alone. I hope that I never get to that point.

It is amazing that only in the last two days I decided to take a pick and see if is there anything in the internet about infidelity. I discovered that the trauma is similar to the Veterans of wars. The level of stress and pain are surreal. What people call post traumatic whatever. I have 3 children, I am a very busy person, I have my own business and my husband had an affair for over two and half years and I stayed and did everything to make things work out; from trying to be nice, loving to the paranoia of looking at his cell or try to figure out where he is all the time and so on. However, there is one thing I want to share, if it wasn't for the son of God Jesus to sustain me and guide me I would had lost it. I think the worst it can happen is to stay angry. We can not get rid of anger on our own, only God can heal us through prayer, reading the bible and confession. I say loud and clear to God 'I am angry" angry at this, that, sometimes I bring anger from the very past. God listen. After I list everything I am angry about I pray and ask for forgiveness and healing oil. He does the job pretty well. Believe me, sometimes I think OK, I am done with anger, I end up finding more anger hiding inside. There I go to my knees and confess.
