No matter how successful your ministry, please note that the girl you married is still your top priority. You will ultimately fail if you forget your God-given responsibility for your wife.
Proverbs is unyielding about this kind of a situation: "The one who commits adultery with a woman is lacking sense; he who would destroy himself does it. Wounds and disgrace he will find, and his reproach will not be blotted out.
"For jealousy enrages a man and he will not spare in the day of vengeance. He will not accept any ransom, nor will he be content though you give many gifts" (Prov 6:32-35).
God will forgive and forget the sin of the leader who falls and truly repents. But, the people will not. They will remember the rest of their lives - and many will never forgive the man who let them down by his moral failure. Such leaders will be haunted day and night by thoughts of "what might have been - had I not sinned"
