Can you understand Steve's feelings? Did you ever have similar feelings in your marriage? Were you more focused on changing your circumstances and your spouse rather than being changed yourself?
Find bible passages that talk about God being our shelter and giving us peace. Do they help you understand what Steve was talking about?
With a partner, talk about some of the bad times in your marriage. With what you now know, can you see how God was there? Can you see how he helped sustain you? How has he been there for you as you began your recovery from divorce?
