i'm surprised no one has commented on this. but again, it is just hypothetical until it actually happens — and no one thinks it will happen to them.

i would love to say that i would take them back. the book of hosea is so clear that that is God's response to our unfaithfulness. but i have seen the hurt and broken trust of unfaithfulness. the long time of counseling, reshaping of thoughts, and working out the relationship. it would be the long hard path. not the easy one.

love the pic, btw. what ever happened to carmen sandiego? haha…

@Mike: I’m blessed to have your prayers.

@Steven: Thank you for your words of encouragement. I wish you knew how meaningful and helpful it is to me to hear/see them. I breathe in the truth of them like life giving oxygen. Thank you.

I am so thankful for all the comments and insights. There are few things more hurtful than to not be forgiven by someone. One thing I do know from my own experience is that unfaithfulness is usually a silent cry for help, about something in one’s life. It is rarely just about the sex. Oh that Jesus would be the lover of our soul, so that we wouldn’t look for some human to be what they can’t be in the first place..

Well, this seems like the best place to introduce myself..

I married a sex addict (many, many affairs in the first three years of our marriage).

I had NO idea. I found out. He repented and sought help…then he fell..again and again and again.

God told me I could leave, but that He had something awesome for me if I would stay.

I had always believed in redemption, that I was a forgiven sinner with the power to forgive and set free. But I’ve truly had that theory tested in my life.

I stayed.

God transformed my husband. God transformed me.

We ARE the redeemed in Christ.

My wife’s sister is going through this now and it’s a sad situation. On the bright side, that’s a well drawn picture that pretty much says it all

I think it would all depend on the circumstances … (simplifying it all down a bit) i think that if it happened to me and she was sorry and wanted help and forgiveness then i would definately take her back (even in a dating frame of mind

@Jen I know for a fact that sheri is dead wrong. I am proof. And Alan, too. And there are countless others that have sought forgiveness in the Lord and received it.

We have ALL sinned. Just remember the story in the Bible. Where Jesus helps the adulteress up and tells her to go and sin no more. HE forgave. HE forgives. Imagine if he had looked at her and said, “sorry. Once a cheater always a cheater. I can’t help you.”

What if he had said that about any of his disciples. People he picked. People closest to him. ALL had many skeletons in their closets before following Jesus.

Look forward. Not back.
