I'm so excited to have found this gathering of like-minded people to share ideas and experiences with! I'm new to this form of marriage, and newly following YHWH Elohim and Yeshua in a completely different way than I ever have as well, so my life is full of change right now. I was previously married to my first husband for 27 years, an Evangelical pastor, and have 4 adult children with him. My first husband passed away 10 years ago, I remarried briefly but to an abusive man I divorced after 4 years of trying to "fix" our marriage. I decided I would NEVER marry again, but YHWH had different plans for me. 2 years post-divorce I met and then entered into a spiritual marriage with my husband as his 2nd wife. We are all 3 new to this life, and all feel called to it and that YHWH brought us together. We courted 3 months, and have been married 6 months now and I love this life, but often come across challenges (usually within myself) to overcome. As a previous only wife, I have great respect for my sw and gratitude for her having invited me into her life with our husband, and understand/empathize with a lot of the challenges she faces sharing him. We all feel so blessed to be together! Their adult children know about me and wholly welcome me to their family. Only 2 of my 4 adult children know about it though, and only 1 out of 4 siblings knows, and only 1 friend. So far I don't feel able to share the truth about my life with anyone else, although I long to be able to. Thank you for being a place I can share openly!
