    About this ebook

    It was always my desire to be in a marriage relationship with both parties loving and respecting one another. It is also important to me that both of us have a relationship with Christ Jesus. I thought I had that when I married a man of God who was a preacher, teacher, and deacon of the church. You would think I married the man of my dreams, but not so. I stayed in the relationship a long time, twenty-eight years, before realizing it would not get better. After leaving this marriage, I looked for love, but found deception. Now I have recommitted my life to Christ and am allowing him to bring to me Mr. Right instead of Mr. Right Now.
