You ChooseâIt's YOUR Choice
Erin Thiele, the author of most of our books you'll find on Encouraging Bookstore, has been given the opportunity to choose restoration and later to remain as His bride during her 30+ years of ministering, continuing to write using her BNN. After her journey to write the many restoration series books, she was called to take on a new journey, finding her abundant life so every woman could discover their Husband and live a life of abundance, then writing the Abundant Life Series.
Here's what the Apostle Paul says in God's Word, "To those who are married, hereâs my command (to be clear, this isnât merely my opinion; it comes from the teaching of the Lord): it is not right for a wife to leave her husband. But, if she does, she must either remain single or reconcile with her husband. She should not marry someone else.
"In the same way, a woman who is no longer married or has never been married can be devoted to the Lord and holy [set apart] in body and in spirit to Him. But a married woman has to think about her earthly responsibilities and how to please her husband."
"I want you to live as free of complications as possible. When youâre unmarried, youâre free to concentrate on simply pleasing the Master. Marriage involves you in all the nuts and bolts of domestic life and in wanting to please your spouse, leading to so many more demands on your attention. The time and energy that married people spend on caring for and nurturing each other. The unmarried can spend on becoming whole and holy instruments of God. Iâm trying to be helpful and make it as easy as possible for you, not make things harder. All I want is for you to be able to develop a way of life in which you can spend plenty of time together with the Master without a lot of distractions."
âDelight yourself in the LORD, and He will give you the desires of your heart.â
âAnd all these things are from God who reconciled us to Himself through our Savior, and who has given us the ministry of reconciliation.â
If you long for the restoration of your marriage, at some point, your feelings can abruptly change. Many who come here for restoration and they become His bride honestly do NOT want restoration; however, many sense it is HIS will, often for the sake of their children.
Today in many countries, custody of children, even very small children, are given to the fathers, leaving mothers depressed and sick at heart. #RCP
#HHDC Still others sense Him saying He wants them all to Himself. Only YOU and Your Husband can make this decision togetherâand the GOOD NEWS is that if you make a mistake, He promises doubleâso there is nothing at all to worry or stress about... that is if you remain His.
If you STOP wanting your marriage restored, for heaven's sakeâdonât leave RMIâHe led you here to establish a new and exciting relationship with your Husband.
Most women feel forsaken and grieved in spiritâ and every woman who is rejected is very vulnerable to being used and abused by men. Everyone's probably telling you to âmove on,â God says to agree with adversaries âall those people who oppose what you feel the Lord wants you to do.
But that doesn't mean you move on to a new heartbreak 
with another earthly man. You have gone through enough, right? We know we couldn't take any more hurt, more pain, more rejection, or any more betrayal. We discovered there is only One 
who can meet our needs, your needs, plus provide for your wants and bless you with all you've ever âdreamedâ a relationship could be!
Choose singleness. This isn't what we say; it's what the Apostle Paul said and what God made sure was in His Word. At this point, you are here at RMI because you WANT your marriage or relationship restored. However, feelings change. If you change your mind, if God turns your heart 
thatâs fine. Actually, we believe it could very well be fantasticâ because you will be free to discover why He led you here. One, we know, is to heal you. HHM HE HEALED ME is a great place to start, and we also hope you discover true "love at last" to understand the transforming principle of becoming HIS bride.
âFor your Husband is your Maker, Whose name is the Lord of hosts; And your Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel, Who is called the God of all the earth.
â'For the Lord has called you, Like a wife forsaken and grieved in spirit, Even like a wife of oneâs youth when she is rejected,' Says your God"âI544
The added bonus is that once you're free from doing all you can to restore your marriage because you let goâit immediately sets that principle and spiritual law in motion. God is free to work in your life and with whoever you need restoration with. You simply need to say, "Your will be done."
