God restored me after my husband walked away

Woman standing alone

My story for the last couple of years has been one of restoration. God has so beautifully restored my life, after a very dark and difficult time. It is five years now since my divorce. I was married for nearly ten years, until my ex-husband decided that he no longer wanted to be married or be in relationship with anyone, and wanted to live a life of a single man. It was an incredibly difficult time for me, we had both been through a lot. We were living in Dubai for the duration of our marriage.

Our time there had been challenging, running a water sports business, and going through a lot of ups and downs, relating to the business. The marriage itself was hard, but I gave it my all. So to have my husband, after almost a decade, walk out on me in 2017 was devastating. When he left, I packed up my bags, by then we had downscaled to a small apartment, so there wasn’t much furniture to sell after living for a decade in the country. I sold what we had, and flew home to Cape Town in October 2017.
