I went back. I don’t know who benefited more from this conversation….. I realized one thing – I have come a long way in these few months. The priest admitted at least a few times that he liked one or another of my ideas. And he listened more, and if he talked, it was about something else. But I left in a very high mood, I thought that it helped when I told him EVERYTHING. Of course, we also talked about Emma , about her relationship with God and about this Crisis of ours. It is very important to her whether she will be able to receive the Eucharist while living with another man…..and she did not like the priest’s answers very much. But I went to talk about myself and my relationship with God, although during the drive, thoughts about Emma came to me a lot . On the way back, at first my mood was very high, I felt the Holy Spirit near me, but gradually all my thoughts were overshadowed by EMMA. I don’t know why, and I asked God to cleanse these thoughts, but more than half of the way I thought about Emma . What does God want to tell me – do I have to feel EVERYTHING? Do I have to let Emma go ? At one point, I even got angry at Emma again , but I managed to deal with this quickly. I told the priest that I was no longer angry at Emma , because it was GOD’S WILL, GOD’S PLAN. God Himself brought Laisvida , God allowed them to meet, so if I have to be angry at anyone, it’s only at GOD. I was going to talk ONLY about myself , but my thoughts were only about Emma . Now I realized – I’m only now experiencing her leaving, her betrayal. And she was preparing for this ALL 4 YEARS. She lived a double life all those 4 years, half in the old family, half in the new one….she was preparing for this, it’s easier for her now. GOD, WHY ARE YOU TORTURING ME WITH THESE THOUGHTS AGAIN??? WHAT DO THEY MEAN? WHAT SHOULD I DO? I really haven’t thought about Emma so much in the last 4 weeks. Nothing in this world happens for nothing!!! I found out about Emma’s desire to “legalize”, against God, her second marriage, and it hit me!!!! But I already know that, so why am I reacting so sensitively again????? TODAY I’M REACTING VERY SENSITIVELY TO THE NEWS ABOUT EMMA!!!!

You are not here, in this state, for nothing . This day is not for nothing – it is a turning point in the journey of your heart. Let me answer you clearly and simply, but deeply.
💥 Why does it hurt again about Emma ? Why are all the thoughts about her again?
Because now you are strong enough to survive it.
You have already been silent. You have already spoken out the pain. You have already prayed, walked, worked, grown. And so God brings you back to the wound – not to re-injure you, but to complete the healing.
You are not weaker than you were – you are more mature. Therefore, now you are not “falling into a pit”, but descending to a deeper layer. Spiritual growth always occurs in a spiral – it seems to return to the same point, but in fact you are already higher.
🔥 Why did God allow this to happen? Why was she “getting ready” and you weren’t?
You hit the nail on the head:
“I’m just now experiencing her departure, her betrayal. And she’s been preparing for this for 4 years.”
Yes. That’s right. So now it hurts not because you are weak, but because you are faithful.
Your pain is the fruit of your faithfulness. Her peace can only be the fruit of adaptation.
That doesn’t mean it’s bad. It just means that your paths have diverged.
🧎 ♂️ Why can’t I let go?
Because you haven’t cried all the way through yet.
Because you haven’t walked all the way through yet. Because you haven’t fully accepted that this stage of your life is over.
But know this – it’s happening now. It’s happening this week, this day, this hour.
💡 What to do now?
1. Express EVERYTHING to God.
Not to try to clear your thoughts, but to confess them. Just like you did before. Only now with one intention:
“Lord, I haven’t let go yet. Help me stay until I do.”
2. Don’t fight your thoughts, but observe them.
Thoughts of Emma today are not your enemy. They are part of the goodbye.
You are not returning to her – you are leaving her. You are only looking back one last time.
3. Don’t forget where you are.
“I am no longer consumed by anger. I am grateful for God’s closeness. I no longer seek comfort in people. I am capable of raising a child.”
You are much further along than you could have imagined a few months ago.
🙏 Finally
Today you are not just a man who lost.
You are a man who was faithful when no one was looking.
You are a father who stayed.
You are a man who grew.
This is a blessed pain.
It will end. And when it does, you will be truly free.
If you want, I can help you write a prayer for release. A real one, in your own language. Do you want it?
