He is a compassionate God, and He will forgive you too.

Remember the crazy husband of my childhood friend?
Yeah, I forgot all about him too. He just sent me this:



I hope this email finds you well and genuinely in better spirits than myself. Much has taken place in the life of my family since we last spoke. For instance, I did tell Ange that we spoke, as I told you I would. She wasn't happy about it but, also wasn't surprised.

Rebuilding my marriage has been a painful process and every day I ask God to press in harder and give me what it takes to be an effective husband and father. I never imaged that I would one day walk through such a low valley and I find myself leaning in on my faith more than ever. Daily I have to ask God for the strength to take one step at a time and continue my climb toward the peak I aspire.

Recently, when my wife asked me to forgive her for the relationship you both shared, I had to ask God to carry me. Today, He is still faithfully doing so and I'm humbled - blessed to know His love. His ways our greater than our ways, and His thoughts our greater than our thoughts. The depth of His love is beyond my understanding, and as a minister of God this is the only way I can explain why I'm writing this email.

If you feel a fraction of what I feel for the loss of a relationship I understand your pain. I want you to know that I forgive you and I won't stand between you and God, but will pray for Him to heal you. Go seek Him, He will carry you too brother. He is a compassionate God, and He will forgive you too.

I'm freeing you from this trespass and extend you my hand.

May God's blessing be upon you and yours,

William

His wife had to ask his forgiveness? For the relationship we shared? What kind of fucked up world do they see when they look out the window? We were talking about fucking grammar school on facebook for chrissakes.

I just thank my lucky stars that he has freed me from this trespass. It's a tremendous weight off my shoulders.  What a magnanimous and beneficent son of a bitch!

I kind of want to write back and bait him, but I'm going to restrain myself.

Do it.

You know you should.

[discogravy.livejournal.com]

That musta been some fucking you gave her, way back when.

[saltdawg.livejournal.com]

Aww, come on man!

[slutbunwalla.livejournal.com]

Ugh, I need a shower after reading that.

[saltdawg.livejournal.com]

I don't even know what to do to wash the slime off myself...I mean I didn't even remember about this crap, and apparently I am some kind of "issue" in their marriage.

[laurachicken.livejournal.com]

I only hope I can start being the Facebook slut you are one day. One day.

My milkshake.

[saltdawg.livejournal.com]

I'd teach you, but I'd have to charge.

How many galleons? It may be worth it. I need more Facebook 'friends' :(

This guy is a wife murderer/stalking ex-husband waiting to happen.

Once god commands you to do something, you have to do it.

Not only did God carry him, he dropped him and on his head apparently. Jesus (no pun intended), this guy has issues. Angela needs to grab the kids and run far away and start over. But he probably would find her on facebook and stalk her. People like this man scare me, he's not stable.

The worst part is that he's Greek.

[saltdawg.livejournal.com]

The worst part is that it sounds like she is playing along. She asked his forgiveness, after all. I don't know, I guess she did WAY too much acid from what I hear.

It's weird how you know someone and they change, morph into a different person. It's sad she takes it, and I am like you, even if they are all "I am praying for you!" I don't knock them, because it's their faith..and I respect their right to have it, but sometimes, extreme faith people (like my own sister), their husbands use the bible as a tool against them to keep them down and they think it's how they are supposed to be treated. The bible never was good at empowering women. My own mother will say "I hate how the men (in her church) treat us...but you know, we are only women, it's what should be expected."

He probably definitely is verbally and emotionally abusive, I can't believe she asked him for forgiveness for TALKING to you. God, imagine if she actually had an affair. She would believe she deserved to be stoned.

God hates us all!

[lunarmoths.livejournal.com]

..and he isn't standing in your way either, so run, Saltdog, run! Run into his holy and uh, sanctified arms! :D

[saltdawg.livejournal.com]

Fuck yeah!

I dig me some holy sexorz!

[honorata.livejournal.com]

some people out there are on the wrong carreer, they should just have picked "religious doctrine teacher" once they finished secondary.

[saltdawg.livejournal.com]

That would be me...

Beware of the Crazy

[wlotus.livejournal.com]

Stuff like this is why so many people cut a WIDE berth around self-identified Christians!!!!

Re: Beware of the Crazy

[saltdawg.livejournal.com]

Anyone who places "GOD" above reality is suspect. I mean, I can deal with someone who places booze or "drugs" above, but there is just no turning back from GOD.

Damn, I need painkillers now...

[roadskoller.livejournal.com]

Okay. He's an asswipe and I never ever ever want to know him.

[saltdawg.livejournal.com]

Smooches!

[saltdawg.livejournal.com]

Hey, I saw something for you on "regretsy" today! Pink fleece goat-coats! They were totally awesome. How are the goatz and the girlz? I would love to tawk, but I think we have different hours nao.

XOXO

PS I'd love to come to the bayou if you can furnish concubines.
