“If he has let you suffer, it is because he sees something good in it which today you do not yet know.” – Pope Francis, from The Things of the Spirit
How could this divorce, this major suffering, bring about good? This question can’t be answered when the pain is still so raw that you wake up every morning struggling just to breathe; struggling to understand how to put your life back together. It’s been over ten years since my divorce. Looking back, I see that one of the most defining moments of my life – the divorce – was also the defining moment of my faith life. I am a stronger, healthier and more faith-filled woman because of it.
