Divorce Court What to Expect
The Lord examines the righteous, but the wicked, those who love violence, he hates with a passion. Psalm 11:5
There once was a man and a woman who built a house together.
For years, they filled it with laughter, meals, and memories, but over time, the walls began to shake with anger and resentment.
They could no longer see the love they once held; all they saw were the wrongs done to them.
Headed to Court
One day, they went before the rulers of the land to divide what they had built.
“Decide for us,” they said, “who shall take the house, the gold, the children, and the treasures of our life.”
The rulers, cloaked in robes of justice, weighed the arguments, listened to the accusations, and pronounced their judgment.
But the judgment was not simple, and it was not kind.
For the court, by design, could not see hearts; it could only see claims and counterclaims.
The house was split, not according to fairness or mercy, but according to the law’s cold logic.
Walls were torn, treasures were claimed, and bitterness poured like fire through the halls.
And the children – innocent and small – stood in the courtyard, helpless, as the home they had known crumbled around them.
To the neighbors and ordinary people watching from afar, it appeared the parents had gone mad.
Everyone could see they were destroying themselves, yet they continued to blame the other.
It seemed they would rather tear the house down—burn it to the ground – than allow the children to find happiness with the other.
Beware of Family Court
In that court, nothing was safe; every claim, every possession, even the hearts of the children were caught in the crossfire of their fury.
Let all who enter the halls of divorce court take heed: it is a place where hearts are ignored, love is measured only in claims and defenses, and the sword of judgment can bring utter ruin. Only those who come with wisdom, humility, and a willingness to reconcile may hope to leave with anything of lasting value.
May God open the eyes of those who can see, that they might truly see, and let them not be blind like this couple.
