Despite the difficulties that come with every marriage, when a spouse leaves and walks away, abandoning all hope of reconciliation, the one left behind must overcome a myriad of heartaches and obstacles. Navigating these waters can leave one feeling overwhelmed with issues and in dire need of direction and healing. When there are children involved, the transition to recovery is even harder. After being married for twenty-eight years, Mary Bryant found herself adrift, praying desperately for a buoy to cling to while she collected the remnants of her life and family. She found herself at the most broken place she could have ever imagined. Shortly after her husband left her and their four young-adult children, she was in her kitchen calling out to God, desperate for an answer and someplace to put the fractured pieces of her life so that she could begin healing. It was there that she felt God impress upon her, Write-your healing is there. For the next eighteen months, Mary wrote what you will find here, a most personal and inspirational message of what she believes is God’s message for anyone who finds their life in the pit of despair. With God’s guidance, she learned to put one foot in front of the other and began to live again. It’s a transformation from brokenness to one of hope and certainty that all things work together for our good when we trust God to lead us. Whether your prayer is for your husband to be reconciled in relationship with you, or it is simply your desire to learn to trust God for your new season ahead, When He Walks Away is a must read. It is balm for your wounded spirit, and it will encourage you greatly on your journey back to wholeness.
