Is divorce is an option?

If divorce is an option, you’ll end up getting a divorce. Friends, did you hear what I said? If divorce is an option (on non-biblical grounds), and you just can’t tolerate that crazy man anymore, you’ll get a divorce. If divorce is not an option, then you WON’T end up getting a divorce. You have to settle that in your mind right now.

Marathon analogy:

I was going to run a marathon, and I gave up before I even started. I bought the book, How to

Run Your First Marathon and I started thumbing through the training schedules. And I said, “You know, I think I’ll run a 5-km.” (A: laughter). But do you know what the book said? It said, “A marathon is run between the ears.” You have to DECIDE. When you take the first step, if not finishing the race is an option, you won’t finish the race. If you take that first step and say, “I’m going to see how it goes. If I’m feeling good at 12 miles, I’m going to keep it up. If I’m feeling good at 22 miles, I’m going to keep it up.” If you are thinking “I’ll see how things go, and if things are going well, I’ll stick with it.” Then you’re not going to finish the race.

Are you committed to your husband for LIFE? If your answer to that is “NO”, then you’ll get a divorce. It’ll just take circumstances that are just bad enough to get you out of there.

Are you committed to that man for life? Did you mean it when you swore before GOD that you would stay with her?
