Yes, so much to unpack, here. But that is not for me to do, that’s on the author of the post to pursue some honest, however painful, reflection.

To say that you feel betrayed by [whom ever], you maybe already connected all the dots from the present, where the disagreement is right in front you, to the past, where now you’re like “what was I thinking?” Right?

You admitted so much by mentioning the Democratic Party. And what about that pride of yours that drove you to a completely different church and faith for, for what exactly? Marriage is a Sacrament, not some convenient date on a calendar. Part of the I Do’s pertains to progeny, and promising to raise them IN the faith, did you get that line on your wedding day? Was your then- “non serviam” not the beginning of years full of small and barely noticeable changes in direction off of the Right path? And ultimately leading you here?

We all make mistakes. So. Many. Mistakes.

Just remember, you live in the Now, where God works. Repair what you can from your past to make amends, and place your faith not with people but with God, he’ll take care of the rest.
