Minor adjustments keep wives happy. As long as she respects you and holds no contempt, convenience & momentum win out.
all that has fallen away

the home, the car, the yard, the money, even the dogs, even the wife

all that falls away

there is only Calvary, don't panic, you are born to suffer, born to die, stay the course

it's pretty simple really

He forgives you

then you forgive yourself

then you are calm again

This very feeling is what Christ means when he says, "“Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. “Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. “For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”

I'm sorry to hear about you and your wife, Smitty. I hate to see families come apart like that. Breaks my heart for you, it really does.

so long as I feel Christ is with me, it's not so bad

I feel like I can weather any burden, like Jesus of Nazareth

like you said once, people think we are crazy

but if this is crazy, like I say, I'll take it

hear the angels sing

I do believe that prayer works

because I don't think God is with us at all times, He is not monitoring us, we are not doils

so when you pray, that's like sending up a flare, I believe anyways

I don't even know who Silver Eagle is

but we are in His ministry together, feels like to me now

can't feel too sorry for myself mind you

as there was a guy in Ukraine

who lost his loyal wife and his kids, to a Russian mortar round

so in the grand scheme of things, I got no problems

An Indian government official said Friday that the country will increase its imports of Russian oil, allowing it to boost energy supplies at a discount as its economy struggles to recover from the coronavirus pandemic. The official, who was not authorized to talk to reporters and spoke on the condition of anonymity, said the latest purchase was 3 million barrels.

Although India isn’t alone in buying Russian energy — several European allies such as Germany have continued to do so — the decision conflicts with Biden’s efforts to isolate Russia’s economy with sanctions.
