During our separation I felt emotions more intensely than at almost any other time in my life. I would go from raging, to crying and back again in a very short time. Eventually I learned to pour out my heart to God – yes, even during the rage – and over time I would get my emotions back under control quicker. From all I’ve learned it’s pretty normal, but I needed Jesus’ help to get back on track when emotions seemed to “ambush” me during the day. I pray this gives hope to someone who is  experiencing tremendous emotional ups and downs during separation or divorce.
