They have told [others] about your love. Please send them on their way in a manner that honors God.
3 John 1:6
Let me be vulnerable with you. I have abandonment issues. Whenever a church member leaves, a friend cuts ties, or a family member passes away, I experience great feelings of rejection and my childhood traumas come flooding back. So the thought of separation or divorce scares me to death. This is why I felt it was important to host this seminar on “Life After Separation” this Sunday. There are many people who go through difficult separation, divorce, or breakup yet there is very little resource available that show us how to move forward with life in healthy ways after that happens.
What’s important when friends, partners, or family members separate is that both sides can find peace after they part. And sending people “on their way in a manner that honors God” is important for the other’s sake and our own sake. When bitterness, anger, or unforgiveness lingers after the separation, there is no peace.
