Do you know what it feels like to deliberately do something that will break a friend's heart?
It feels pretty bad.
Some of my friends would say I did the right thing... and that it will turn out for the best in the end. "Tough love."
Others of my friends would say I did the wrong thing... evincing 'coldheartedness' instead of 'christlike love.'
My only hope and stay is some verses from the Bible (2 Peter 2:12, 2 Corinthians 8:21 Romans 12:17, Romans 14, Hebrews 13:4), and some counsel from some of my closest friends, and some optimistic hope-for-the-best type stories concocted in my imagination in which this all works out well. (actually I know that it will all work out "well" from Romans 8:28, but I guess my only question is what "well" will look like.)

Ah, yes. Sometimes what needs to be said or done is difficult...for everyone involved! We'll be praying for the working out well to be sooner rather than later.
