When the covenant trust of marriage is shattered by infidelity, it can feel like your whole world implodes. Confusion, anger, grief, shame, and despair often swirl together in a storm too big to name. It can feel like you’re dying on the inside.
We have all experienced disappointments; desires that have not been fulfilled. Is it better not to hope to avoid disappointment? No, hope is an essential force in our lives. Disappointments should not stop us, but rather lead us to make some adjustments.

Whether after a long day at work or after months of battling a major challenge, it’s good to take time to rest. God even made rest a commandment! But be careful, resting doesn’t mean letting yourself go.
