Mistress, lies, sex and betrayal: A survivor’s testimony.

There is in this a day a silent cancer demonically creeping through out the land. The Consequences of this paralysis to the emotions and conscience of humanity has suffocated dreams and ambitions of a lifetime. This hovering and sweeping effect of lust and selfishness chokes away, daily at the foundation of Gods first, greatest and the oldest institutional relationship. Marriage is not unlike the relationship of Father to son, son to humanity and humanity with the Holy Spirit. Glamorized by Hollywood and haphazardly dealt with by clergy. Ignored by friends and family and clinically excused by means of therapy and medication. It has been dismissed by the stroke of a gavel having destroyed with relentless and careless acts of sexual misconduct. Its ruins are more divesting than any war torn village and the poison contagious by divine decree, will out live the damage of any chemical, nuclear or atomic weapon known to this generation. The underlining source of ruination, to the family is the siege of the genital parts of both male and female. The culprit is Satan and his willful participants.

Silence and denial have been and still are the greatest forms of camouflage for adultery, however; times have changed and as never before society is reaping the consequences of its over indulgence in sexual perversion and promiscuity. No one really wants to tackle the issue, but everyone wants to profit from it. Everyday we find societies endorsement of adultery, fornication and other forms of illicit or depraved sexual acts. A friendly pat on the back, secrets revealed on talk shows, or just the message of “everybody is doing it”. This ill-fated conduct has lead to many divorces, murder suicides, and the fostering of thousands of illegitimate children. Many of these children are born to mothers and fathers that are still married and to those that are not married. The scare and se that we make stigma of adultery is nothing to ignore. Bookstores are shelved with answers to “How to cope with stepchildren and parents”; we even have literature that addresses the issues of singles and single parents in our society. What we do not have is the ACKNOWLEDGMENT that we have an endless epidemic of adulators running rapid in our streets, occupations, clubs and even churches.

Yes, we acknowledge that we make mistakes, however; what can not be excused is the careless and reckless behavior of adults having children, born out of relationships fostered by nothing more than a night of questionable passion and for some, it isn’t even questionable, it is just sex. I am speaking for all of those wounded by the scares of unfaithfulness. There are many stories to be told and not enough time to record them all. I am but one of countless victims. I am but one of countless survivors. I am a survivor, daily abiding in the shadow of the almighty. The lonesome and often overwhelming healing road to inner recovery is one of faith. We, the victims of betrayal all have one thing in common and that is pain. The pain is deep and eternally recorded within the golden halls of heavens angelic host. The power that Satan; has used to destroy so many lives. It been fueled by silence, shame and the fear of abandonment. The ripping away of hearts and dreams has been portrayed as a social pass time. Mockery is made of the faithful spouse and their since of marital harmony so how can I a victim write this book? I am not writing this book of myself or for myself. There has been a still whisper

    Above all else, I admire and respect your strength and ability to hold yourself together when faced with this deception. Although I have had my own problems with marriage, including having feelings for someone other than my husband, I could not imagine the pain of finding out your life mate had “a second life.” Thank you for sharing such a painful, yet life altering, experience. Your story will allow others to see and hopefully find solace that they are not the only ones that this happens to. You truly are an amazing woman in many many ways and it is a blessing and an honor to say that I know you!

    The material is heart warming and I am interested in the ending of the story. I believe that your testimony will set alot of women and men free and shine a light on the hidden scandle of sin that runs free in many churchs. Thank you for and inspiring and revealing manuscript. I pray that you are able to complete this work and have it published.

    We all were sitting around and listending to my father read this story of a women suffering an unthinkable life. Who can imagine a women being married to a man and he having children by other women. What has this world come to. I admire her courage.

    How How How in the world. No matter what the wife may or may not have done. What man, real man would cheat on his wife and then add the extra sting of having children to other women while still married to his wife. I am nobody judge, but as I heard uncle reading this story. I too said, what a God. ONLY GOD could have given this woman the courage to withstand the weight of this matter. I would like to know how she is doing now. Is there more to this story?

    I don’t wnat to give my name, however; I can say that this has happened to me. I am greatful for Pastor sharing this story for our discussion. I can honestly say GOD BLESS this woman and the children that this man has fathered into this world. I suggested to Pastor that this is a matter of a generational curse and I pray that the husband is saved.

    I am the last of the group that Pastor read this story too. I wonder how she is doing now. Is there more to the story? Will she publish one day. I believe you will be a powerful instrument of ministry for the Lord. YOU have survived by the GRACE of God for such a time as this to share God’s healing love and restoring power.
