A day for beginnings

Today is a day for beginning.  For beginning this blog I've felt prompted to start for over a year.  A place I can share my journey to hope.  It's what I seek most.   Hope.  I'm always looking for it and hope is what I want to share with you. Some days I hold it close and it comforts me.  Other days hope's harder to find.  As much as I want it to be, addiction isn’t overcome in a day. We've been married for thirteen years and there have been times when I wondered if we would make it.  His addiction to pornography is the hardest thing we’ve ever gone through.  I say “we” because we’re both fighting this war.  We are in it together.  He fights his addiction Every. Day.  I fight for the hope, strength, and courage I need to support him through it.  I know the statistics aren’t in our favor, but I believe in something they don’t.  I believe in a God of miracles!  A God who created the Heaven, Earth, and everything in it.  Surely He can help us!  As long as my husband keeps fighting, so will I.  He is the man I want to spend eternity with.  So we both fight our demons and lean on one another for support. I'm sharing our story not because it is a perfect one, rather because it is a story of  struggle, forgiveness and hope.

With all my love,

Elisabeth
