ha! it IS funny, because that's exactly how i was about honoring my vows!!! it was such a deep conviction, i rarely remembered that it was ALSO obedience. i just knew it was RIGHT.
and same -- i technically had a choice, too. but i knew what God wanted.
people really have a hard time with God calling His people away from the status quo. they're inclined to think you're making things up or hearing from the devil or something. i get it. radical is radical because it's not the norm. and people definitely have a hard time embracing the radical.
i encourage you, brother in Christ, to keep seeking His desires for you because He does everything out of love and wisdom, so we cannot possibly go wrong with Him, no matter how bleak and out of control our circumstances seem. (i'm actually preaching as much to myself right now as i am to you -- see most recent post...) i support you in this; i hope that helps. :)
