I thought some of the ppl that are new hear would like to hear this testimony. The terrible thing about CDFF is that ater so many post things get buried lol
Hey all, my name is Rabbit, I�d like to tell you how I came up with this name. It�s a story about how my mate left me to fend for myself, while I was going to school, taking care of the kids, had an injured back, and only working a part time job.
Of course it takes two to tango as they say, but really between our parent�s ungodly parenting, our lack of a strong relationship with God, and mishandling of each other, it�s no wonder we stayed together as long as we did. But, when you don�t choose a mate based on a Godly perspective, wisdom, and His character, you really sell yourself short. We came into our relationship riding high on emotions and �chemistry� never really knowing each other ourselves or God. It�s no wonder over the years our relationship withered away.
It came to pass that my ex�s behavior started changing, and I knew something was up, but I wasn�t sure what. One afternoon I called her out on it, and she admitted she wanted out. I guess if I was to give a reason, it would be because she thought the grass was greener on the other side. I was crushed; so much pain, feelings of rejection, and worse loneliness. At the time I was out of fellowship with God, but I needed God more than ever before. I asked my ex if we could pray about it, but she said she didn�t believe. I didn�t know that all this time I was yoked to an unbeliever. What�s worse was I was unable to really protect what we had, or stop her from taking the kids if she wanted, I had absolutely no support system. I had no one but God.
There were days I just didn�t know if I would have the strength to go on. We survived off of very little income, with even less help from people. Of course God used some people to help me, but my Lord carried me through all of it. I was endlessly trying to go to school, trying to figure out how I was going to pay the bills, and trying to answer the kids� questions, and dry their tears, because mom was gone and they didn�t know why. However I found joy and peace, I fell in love with a God that I never really knew about. I learned to love my ex with an agape love. There wasn�t a time we went hungry or cold. Our bills were always paid, and if I recall correctly we lived better than we should have for that situation.
Today I have the kids, house, vehicles I need, a job that fits my schedule and suite my needs, and I am in my last year of school for my undergraduate degree. I also have an awesome church family who has loved me very much. What�s amazing is I couldn�t and often didn�t do anything to put me in a better position. I am blessed more than I know. Like a rabbit I was helpless, the enemy hounded me day and night, but God was my victor. He empowered me to stand against all who opposed me. There�s a saying in my neck of the woods among hunters. �It�s no fun when the rabbit has the gun�
Your words stand so true as if we faced sowhat of the same situations. God has been faithful and my sons and I have all that we have because of who He is in us.
