The fear of not making it

I have heard that in every marriage there are moments that you want to quit, that you can decide it's too hard and walk away. Cut your losses. I always wondered how someone who was not being battered or whose children weren't in imminent danger could just walk away... Until a few weeks ago.

To say I was surprised that I would even think of walking away so early in our lives together, because we had a very rough couple of months financially or because we had an argument is an understatement.

I'm glad I didn't walk away in the moment, cut my losses, and figure out how to make a life worth living on my own. Now that we're seemingly on the other side of that difficult first mountain of major issues that threatened our marriage, I breathe deeply and know that more will come. But for now, I'm just going to walk and keep moving forward.

I'm so thankful that God is faithful when I want to run and hide. He says, run to me, hide in me.
