(I’m a lawyer. We get to talk that way.) Betrayal on top of it is almost unbearable. Add to that the expectation that some others have that we will find “closure” -whatever that is-and insanity begins to look like a viable alternative.

The fact is, in my experience, we don’t ever get completely over these things. We adjust, we accommodate, and , with God’s grace, we begin to heal but the scars of our loss remain, visible reminders that, “twas Grace that brought us safe this this far and Grace will lead us home”. Like an amputee we learn to live with the loss and we move on knowing all the while that “His grace is sufficient” whether it feels like it right now or not.

Am praying.

You’ve been through a lot (understatement) and perhaps it is going to be healing to say what you need, be quiet when you need and just take time for yourself and family to heal. You deserve time to do that.

Pissed because you’re a good man and zealous for Christ and His Kingdom, and some crazy sheep overthrew an appointed shepherd. Love you, your family and your work on behalf of Christ.
