Baby Boy at Our Wedding

Baby Boy at Our Wedding

Romina, how did your restoration actually begin?

We were engaged but our relationship was in trouble. Then after a huge fight, we decided it was over. Just 3 weeks later, I discovered that I was pregnant. After that, it was an all out war. He treated me very badly, implied that I had become pregnant on purpose to catch him.

Later, he was sorry and asked me to go back to him, but each time he would go back to treating me very badly. We also went through severe financial needs, with my parents paying for everything. He also treated my parents badly. No one really knew about my pregnancy, because I was able to hide it.Then,after 5 months, I decided to leave and I moved back to live with my parents.

How did God change your situation Romina as you sought Him wholeheartedly?

In the search for some comfort, scouring the internet like crazy, I found the RMI. I filled out a questionnaire and they sent me a free eBook of HOW GOD CAN AND WILL RESTORE YOUR MARRIAGE. After only the first chapter I understood how wrong I was being with my fiancé, but I knew God had forgiven me and would help me find a better life.

What principles, from God's Word (or through our resources), Romina, did the Lord teach you during this trial?

To let go, was the main principles. After reading how I shouldn't resist when everyone was telling me to "move on" I soon began to agree with them. This helped because I began to pull more and more away and then, just as all the resources say would happen, the further I pulled back, even moving away from him, the more I was able to embrace my HH and seek the Lord with all my heart. And the more I sought my HH finally my fiancé began to contact me.

Later I found out that what shook my fiancé up is when I changed my profile picture and took down any pictures of him on my Facebook. When I then deleted my Facebook account, that's when he really believed the rumors, about me being so happy, as proof that I was seeing someone else. I was seeing Someone, a special Someone, my HH who began to make me feel so loved and it showed.

What were the most difficult times that God helped you through Romina?

When I was 8 months pregnant, my fiancé got into another relationship, and was openly declaring his love for her. When I found out, I was devastated, but it was part of His plan because I had reached the bottom of the pit of suffering. It’s when I fully surrendered all my love to my HH and soon after things began to change.

Romina, what was the “turning point” of your restoration?

One day my fiancé called me, asking to have lunch with him, that he needed to talk to me. He told me that he did not know what was happening, but that he kept thinking of me and wanted to come back. That was on a Thursday, so we started packing everything for our son's arrival, but a week later, I caught him talking to the OW, I overheard him saying he loved her.

A week later my son was born and I realized that we needed to be married, not just living together.

So, after the birth of my son, he re-approached the subject but I explained how I felt. My fiancé stormed out but that was fine. I told my HH He was all I wanted and needed and that He would provide all my son and I needed. My fiancé returned with a ring and we talked of plans to have a small wedding and include our baby boy.

Tell us HOW it happened Romina? Did your husband just walk in the front door?

Beginning at about 15 days postpartum, my fiancé came by my house everyday. Soon he began to treat me with complete affection. We got married in March, when my son was 5 months old and now we are together, happy and in love because God is Faithful!

Would you recommend any of our resource in particular that helped you Romina?

Yes, the book HOW GOD CAN AND RESTORE YOUR MARRIAGE and the courses that have strengthened me so much especially being able to journal. I also want to say that even if someone isn’t married the book and courses help. Without these books I would never have known how God felt about marriage and wouldn’t have been committed to being married.

Do you have favorite Bible verses Romina that you would like to pass on to women reading your Testimonies? Promises that He gave you?

Isaiah 45:11— "Thus says the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, and his Maker: 'Ask Me about the things to come ...'"

Isaiah 42:9-10—

“Behold, the former things have come to pass, Now I declare new things; Before they spring forth I proclaim them to you. Sing to the Lord a new song, Sing His praise from the end of the earth!"

I found these promises in a fellowship message after I let go of my church and joined RF. These promises helped me each time I was worried with how my journey was going, I simply asked my HH to show me what is up ahead and found myself prepared even when it was something difficult He planned to take me through.

Isaiah 30:21—

"Your ears will hear a word behind you, 'This is the way, walk in it,” whenever you turn to the right or to the left.'"

Isaiah 54:4-6—

“Fear not, for you will not be put to shame; And do not feel humiliated, for you will not be disgraced; but you will forget the shame of your youth, and the reproach of your widowhood you will remember no more.

“For 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.

“'For the Lord has called you, Like a wife forsaken and grieved in spirit, Even like a wife of one’s youth when she is rejected,' Says your God.”

"Instead of your shame you will have a double portion, and instead of humiliation they will shout for joy over their portion. Therefore they will possess a double portion in their land, Everlasting joy will be theirs. For I, the Lord, love justice, I hate robbery...and I will faithfully give them their recompense and make an everlasting covenant with them. Then their offspring will be known among the nations, and their descendants in the midst of the peoples.”

Would you be interested in helping encourage other women Romina?

YESSSSS. I want to help women who are involved with men who treat them badly to introduce them to their HH.

Either way Romina, what kind of encouragement would you like to leave women with, in conclusion?

TRUST THE LORD with ALL of YOUR HEART, HE NOT JUDGE, HE DOES NOT FAIL, HIS PROMISES ARE FOR US, HE WILL NOT LEAVE US.

Some days I cried in the lap of the Lord, I did not know what to do. But I'm here today with praise, with a son and a father for him all due to the love of my HH. ALL HONOR AND ALL GLORY BE TO HIM!
