Divorce is not the end of the road. It isn't easy, and it's not what we would have chosen, but God can help you make wise decisions to deal with the transition.
The truth is: we are still sinners and will always battle with sin in our lives because we are inwardly bent towards it. That's why God says we need to confess our sins and rely on his promise to cleanse us and transform us.
Forgiveness doesn’t mean absolving people of the consequences of their actions.
