And hopefully to find someone who will want us. I want to start by sayig I am a believer and accepted Jesus as my personal savior. She has never believed and still doesn't today. When my ex-wife told me she was no longer "in love" with me Father's Day 2006, but buy me a house and we can work on it. I did. And then we came up to our wedding anniversary September 2006 and she blew me off and our kids. I had the feeling there was someone else and sure enough there was. She also decided to no longer be a mom. I felt betrayed and hurt by her, but knew I had to continue on in life for my twin daughters who were 2 years old. I dated after several months had passed. And I found the girl I thought would be a great potential. A few months into the relationship red flags went up every where. This was going to be a repeat of my marriage. I stayed single and "psuedo" dated here and there. I found a wonderful christian woman and things have been wonderful. The reason I found her is I decided to turn my will and my life over to the care of God and asked that in his time the right one will come along. Since finding this wonderful woman my kids are now 5, my ex-wife and I do a 50/50 custody, my kids and girlfriend and I all attend church. I have recently been baptized and am going to have my daughters Dedicated to God. My girlfriend and I are talking marriage and trusting God. So, I would tell single parents every where. Trust God and know He does answer preayer "Yes, No, and Wait." God knows best and will help you.

For those of us that have done this an any of the many areas we try to use to seek fulfillment, retraining ourselves to get sick after one donut is a difficult process. Although I do have a predilection for donuts, I see this in many areas in my life. Thanks for reminding me of the root issue.
