What sacrifices have you made in life?
I’ve made many sacrifices in my life. One of the ones I made was when I first got married, I always wanted children of my own and every year that went by and I still had no children.
One day I felt God give me surreal peace about this and my husband had been married before and had 3 amazing children that I loved very much. I realized that I didn’t want them to feel like my husband and I had replaced them with children of our own. Ever since God gave me that peace I was good with it.
I’m so proud of my stepchildren who now are all adults. It was the best sacrifice I could ever make in my life. They have turned out to be amazing adults. ❤️

When I was tired of my wife’s infidelity I decided to get a divorce. It was the hardest thing I had ever experienced in my life because we had been together for over a decade and it was my first marriage. During the mediation we sat down to discuss our divorce settlement and I had a file, she had nothing. She took me as a fool, and came unprepared. She chose to get a divorce in a state where infidelity was frowned upon, (I did my homework.) I handed over my papers and the gentleman’s jaw dropped and so did my wife’s as soon as I handed her, (her paperwork) then I cried.
As time passed the due date finally came, and it was time to face the judge. The judge stared down at the paperwork, shaking her head. Finally, with the raise of her head and the look in her eyes, you could tell she was pissed! She stood up looked at my wife and the big mouth that was with her and told her to shut up.
Now for the verdict, she found my wife guilty of adultery on multiple occasions. She found my wife guilty of lying to a man about kids that were not his and charging her with entrapment. On top of all this, (mind you, I lost everything when I left her) the judge gave me back all the child support I had ever given her.
Here an additional kicker, the judge asked me to give her one of my cars, so she could take the kids to the doctor appointments, I agreed. I owned two cars a sedan and a sports car. Well I still owed money on the sports car and my daily driver was easy on gas. So it was a know brainer, I told the judge she could have the one I owe on as long as she can afford it. I looked back at my wife and she said she could, so that was a done deal. When everything was said and done this next step blew my mind. The judge came down off her chair and hugged me and said; for all the good women in this world we are terribly sorry for the way you have been treated. Then she looked at my wife and how dare treat him the way you did! Then she told my ex-wife to get out of her courtroom. The whole courtroom stood up and applaud.
I then went back to my state and filed for custody of the children when I heard my ex was in jail for drugs and theft. I won, and I went to Florida to get my babies that I raised and I raised them as a single dad.
( I sacrificed my life for three children I thought were mine)
