Give the Gift of Forgiveness

Last Valentines Day I gave my husband a scrapbook with pictures of our memories together. On the last day of the month I gave him a card that said:

Mahal,

I am thankful that God placed you in my life and I wouldn't live my life any other way. I'm excited about our 9th year anniversary this year, and I feel BLESSED that we have weathered the storms together. I pray that God would be a bigger part of our life and our love story.

I love you always.

While giving him the card I told him I forgave him. It was more for my closure rather than for him, because I know my heart has been feeling heavy since the incident last January. But I am closing that chapter of my life now, and holding on to my God more than ever. I will not rely on my own strength, or on the strength of our marriage, because I know that even if my husband leaves me, His grace is sufficient for me.
