Thanks for highlighting this message from Pope Benedict, which follows similar messages from Pope John Paul to the Rota. <br /><br />The words of our Holy Father has helped me keep going as one who has been separated/divorced for over 8 years now. <br /><br />I still live my life as a married man and pray that my wife and I will be reconciled. Though we have no children, we have 20 nieces and nephews who have witnessed the divorce of over half of their relatives (5 to date). <br /><br />I know my responsibility is to carry my cross and pray for my wife to return to Christ and His Church. The road has been difficult, especially since every priest and religious in my diocese has told me to "get on with my life".<br /><br />But with Christ there is hope and the promise of restoration. I will continue to trust and believe until death do us part.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
