Protection

The past few days have been hard. I have been feeling very vulnerable, and have been acutely aware of how dangerous my husband's behavior was. It's been hard to let go of the fact that we can't have proof that the other baby's gone. That uncertainty is just one of the many ways that the situation has left our family vulnerable.

He could have given me an STD since the other woman is very promiscuous, and she even mentioned once a fear of having something.

He risked our finances by creating another child to support.

By bringing another woman into our lives, he risked her being psychotic and and dangerous when crossed.

I wanted my husband to ensure that she could never harm us in some legal way, but realistically, there's nothing he can do to stop her if she really wants to be a problem in our lives. I need to trust that my husband will do all he can, and that God will take care of the rest. God is the only one I should put my absolute and unconditional faith in. My husband will do all he can, but he has limitations that God does not.

Please, Lord, keep our family safe from harm.
