Good Report

[keltic63]

Last Friday I had to go to a counselling session with my (soon-to-be) ex-wife. We were to discuss co-parenting skills as we are separated (2.5 years) and no other issues. I was anxious about the session, so on the drive there, I began repeating the 23rd Psalm to myself. It was amazing, God's spirit flowed over me and especially when I said the part about preparing a table for me in the presence of my enemies. I continued and as I said "and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever" I was moved to tears. The spirit prompted me to repeat the line "and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord...." It was a clear reassurance to me that I am God's child and the God will take care of me, and that I will indeed be with God forever. I was still a bit anxious for the session but knew that God was with me. A few good things came of the meeting, like overnight visits with my youngest son. That has never happened. I'm not sure it will just yet, because the wife is so opposed to it. The therapist reminded her that she's "lucky this isn't court-ordered." the wife really tried to go after me a few times, but the therapist protected me, and gave her a reality check as well. I've just sent an email to my wife to offer a few dates that my son can spend the night. We'll see if she stays true to her word.
