My 11 year relationship took its last breath today. It ended with anger and violence and much pain. I have a son 7yr. old by a man in which I was not married to nor did it ever seem to be going in that direction as much as I knew we were living in sin. I recently loss a close friend of mine to a tragic car accident and have since really tried to turn my life around. Struggling with my personal relationship with a man who lived a different lifestyle than myself. At one time in our relationship he started attending RCIA classes and we were going to go through an anullment process. He never completed. Me and my kids attend church regularly (my 14 yr. old daughter is from a previous marriage) and we always invited him to go, but he always made excuses. But here recently a new light entered me, I am sure with reflection of losing a friend, it jolted me into looking at life differently. It brought life back into me; imagine that, a death bringing life back into another. I desire to be a better person and with that knew from my faith that I was living in sin with a man who has made no effort to change his lifestyle. But I feel comfort in knowing he has been introduced to the truth. I am asking for prayer for strength for me and my kids who will have a difficult transition in the next months to come. For me, it seems a death in a part of my life that I was somewhat ashamed of with the exception of my beautiful young man. I ask for prayer to stay strong as a mother and a devout christian and catholic. I ask this, in his precious name. Thank you.
