Statistically Speaking

Statistically speaking, I wasn’t supposed to make it.  My life, like everybody’s, has been shaped by my experiences, but not in the way one would predict a couple of decades ago.  Statistically speaking, I should have been without a master’s degree, or even an associate degree.  I should have had multiple relationships, became an addict, possibly have been very promiscuous, or instead, closed off to men and afraid of commitment.  Statistically speaking, I had a very high chance of being severely injured, afraid, or even dead many years ago.  Now, as I look back, I am aware of the many times grace and mercy have saved my life.  I see how the bad were turned into good, and how opportunities have molded and prepared me for a calling no one would ever have foreseen.  Before I realized, I have been moving, step-by-step, towards this purpose.  What purpose?  To help others strengthen and restore marriages.  You see, statistically speaking, divorce equals destruction in so many aspects of life.  I’ve seen it.  I’ve experienced it.  I’ve studied it.  Yes, there is a chance of overcoming those stats too, but statistically speaking, there’s a whole bunch of destruction to overcome.  It “IS” possible to turn an upside down relationship upside up!  When something truly matters to us, we make results happen.  It is my desire for couples to Make Marriage Matter.  This is the beginning.
