This song said so much. It is so true and not just to the adults. To the children whose world was uprooted, dreams died and no one even noticed the part of them that died. As they looked to adults for guidance their was none. I wish people could feel the pain of divorce before they got divorced, they would never do that to a child. Their are many many other choices.
The first time I heard this song I was so identified by it. I love this song it makes me sad but is just how I feel too. To me the last part of the song is so deep. The fruit that still so sweet and will always be are my children.
God bless you Jason!
thank you for putting in words what I have felt for 20 years. I divorced my husband because he was addicted to drugs and needed to protect my daughter. I have felt guilt and grieved for years because he died because of drugs 6 months after I divorced him. Every time I look at my daughter, I am so proud of her yet my heart is breaking. Thank you.
Colleen Plitt I have no wise words, just a prayer for you . ♡
I'm so awed, and humbled really, to be let into such a private place of hurt by hearing this story. This song broke my heart when I first heard it, and I cried at the last verse. Thankyou for sharing your pain, Jason... when you share your burden you are carrying another's.
This is so true.😢💔🙏💓🙏
I just heard this for the first time yesterday. Yes. Just Yes. I want to play this for anyone that has never been through a divorce but are trying to minister to those that are/have. I am 4 years out from the finalization of my divorce and it still is like a death in ways. You occasionally get glimpses of what might have been, what SHOULD have been, and it still is a bit of grief. Also, it describes life after the divorce as to how you can be treated by others. Still to this day I can feel how my relationships with friends have changed. We were in leadership together in our church and obviously as a single woman I had to walk away from some of the ministry work I loved so dearly. It changes your entire life not by choice. And I loved the honesty about praying at the alter for others. I had the same thoughts and feelings. I discovered my marriage was not what I thought it was two weeks before I was to be serving at the altar to pray with women at a Living Proof conference. I had the same struggles and same prayers you did and I made the same decision. The first woman that came up to me basically repeated my story back to me and then asked me how she was supposed to pray for her marriage after that. we cried together and prayed together and held on to each other. God is so amazing how he starts healing when we are not done breaking.
I LOVE your songs Jason Gray I listen to DETH WITHOUT A FUNERAL, THE WOUND IS WHERE THE LIGHT GETS IN, and CELEBRATE every night
what a beautiful person Love you brother
Thank you Jason! Keep pressing on- this Life is only temporary, we have so much more to look forward too!! We are in the palm of HIS hand. Great show last night in KS
29 years after my wife left me with two small children because she chose drugs and alcohol over her family, tears still come to my eyes every time I listen to this song. Even though the Lord gave me a new wonderful wife and my children a new loving mother, the pain has never left, it’s just buried deeper so it’s not seen much. Fortunately they were so young they don’t remember their birth mother. Their step mother is the only mom they know. My pain will never fully be taken away. The joy of a new life with my second wife and the blessing she is every day buries the pain deeper and deeper but something like this song strangely brings it to the surface. When listening to it alone I still cry for the tragedy and loss of what was and should have been. Even after 29 years.
Oh man. A few years back during my separation/divorce Jason's song 'nothing is wasted' nailed it for me. Today I am healing, nearly whole and his music is still a vehicle of God's spirit to pour out healing and hope.
Glad somebody said it so well. No one has ever written it like this and it's profound.
Wow. Thank you Jason
There is a another sun shines always sir...we always with you...god bless u
I`m so sad, Lords love for your entire family....
I saw him here in Calgary at centre street church
Thank you for that Jason. My parents are the ones that are divorced and the Catholic Church doesn’t really “approve” of divorce and that makes it even more important that your saying this.
A Divorce is worse than death. With a death that person is gone forever, with divorce they are still alive but you are rejected and usually alone. But we can rejoice in the fact that God is with us and will never leave us.
I think that god answered all of your guys’ prayers by giving you the strength to do what’s right for you.

And here I was thinking this song was about how Christians put sinful attitudes and behaviors to death, but can still find them tempting from time to time.
It’ll be a whole new experience now, knowing the true reason!
Incredibly touching. Just went through a divorce last year after being married 19 years.
My divorce just finalized today. I'm grieving heavily, even though I was the one who made the decision. He was narcissistic, abusive, awful... but it still hurts.
I just wanted you to know, yes, someone else needed that song too. A young girl I met recently is not doing so well because of a divorce. I am trying to help her and she's helped me with a few things. However I have been really worried how this is all going to turn out for her, it is pretty bad. Well, recently I got wifi (yes I have been still on dial up for over 20 years. One of the things I wanted to do was look up your web site, was happy to find you in a lot places. You had impressed me a long time ago and of course the first song I sent her to listen to clip of was Remind Me Who I Am. That song had sustained me many times, I hoped it would help her. Then I saw many songs of yours I had not heard on the radio yet. I think I must have sent her five links today. So yes, there is someone else as you thought there may be, that would need a song like this. I am sorry to see what had happened in your life, sometimes the hurt is always there but don't let that hide the blessings God gives and He does bless us well. Thanks for your music Jason! I am sure I am not the first person to say it has been special to me. Jo Loretta

7 years ago I got married and today 7/22/23 my divorce is being processed as of Monday. We just adopted my daughter Leah She is eight months old. My wife doesn't realize what's she's doing. Pray for KERA burke please.
No clear ending markers??? It seems that sleeping alone in your bed, in your own house is a pretty clear ending marker. But to each their own. I'm glad you found your light.
Well, a sudden change =/ a funeral like event. Rather divorce and tragedies like miscarriages are silent, with no public time to grieve and comfort each other. While funerals are sorrow-filled events, they bring peace through the obvious and clear resolution of their life on Earth & the gathering of loved ones and memories.
😞
I think of Adam and Eve in the garden after they took part in the bite of the fruit.
