For those of you who have been following my story there will be more to 
come. Soon I will be taking a brief pause to share another story. This past week I have been contacted by more than one person telling me how brave I am and that they are proud of me for sharing my story. Those people will never know how their messages touched me. Hopefully they will read this post.
I want them to know that each of them is special to me and that I love them from the bottom of my heart. They are a sweet and special blessing in my life and I am thankful to God for allowing me to know them. Whether they realized it or not what they were ministering to my heart.
My response to some of those messages triggered something. Those people saw me as brave? I don’t consider myself brave at all. Then I realized that because I am covered by God’s forgiveness, love, grace and mercy I am suited with the armor of God. With his protection I can do anything.
God used those women as tools to do his good work. He used them to send me a message of encouragment so that I might use that encouragment to help empower other women to share thier stories too. So that I might reach just 
the right person at just the right time.
The purpose of my blog in the beginning was to simply tell my story. God has given my husband an amazing ministry for fallen men. Every day he is contacted by men who have fallen or are about to fall, the wives of those men, their deacons or other church leaders and members but very seldom does he get contacted by the “other woman“.
I have said from the beginning that there are hundreds of those women out there. Who do they look to to identify withor to talk? Adultery is not a stranger to our generation. Everyone knows someone who has done it. But when you have committed adultery with a pastor you are in a unique situation.
Don’t hear me discounting the significance of adultery no matter what the situation may be. And please don’t hear me dismissing the signifigance of the impact those affairs cause in the “other women’s” life. I am reaching out to them as well.
Every story is unique. Every journey is different. I have talked to other women who have crossed the moral line just as I have but they have a different story to tell. In order to help as many women as possible I feel it is 
important to share those stories. If you don’t identify with me, I hope to find someone you can identify with.
I have made some sweet and special friends through this process that I may have never had the chance to know had I not fallen in love with my husband. I have reached out to some of those women and have asked a few of them to bear their souls for the cause of my mission. In my next post I will be sharing one of their stories.
Thank you to those of you who are reading my blog and supporting my ministry. I give God all the glory for the blessing it has been.
