im sry hon
thank you for sharing
how are you coping

hi i'm a christian. i'm letting go and letting God. i can honestly say that is the only reason i'm so peaceful because of Him.

Hi, I am Christian and proud of it. When my stbx used my faith as a battering ram against me, that is when I left. It is tough, but I know that God will help me through this time. I look forward to the time when the divorce is finally complete, and I can move forward in my life. In the meantime I spend time in the Word and in prayer, and am content to let Him work on my heart.

I'm a Christian and my husband professes to be one, too. We were separated for three months then he had to move back home for financial reasons. Our house is in foreclosure and I am going to have to file for bankruptcy soon due to his lying, faking jobs, borrowing money and refusing to provide for his family. I've been married for 20 years and divorce is the last thing I would want, but he's ruined me and I couldn't take it any more.

*Steps up*

I'm a christian dealing with separation.

It's only through Him that i can stay the course and remain faithful to my wife while she is off "breaking the rules of marriage".

It will only be through Him that I will be able to heal.

I am daily trying to remember and learn to put Him first in my Life. ultimately my goal is to be a glory and A Blessing to Him.

My statement right now is:

"If my wife comes home, Praise the Lord;
If my wife does not come home, Praise the Lord.
No matter what happens to me;
No matter the outcomes, Praise the Lord always."

I am a Christian (Catholic) and my stbx was raised Mormon. He left me and my two year old daughter because he is unhappy with his life and we are separated to give him space and time for I don't know what. He doesn't want to work on our marriage and has always been a self-centered person. I am losing my job soon due to state budget cuts and he knows that I need help financially. Last night he told me that I need to get my own bank account and that the reason being is that he doesn't want to SHARE. He said that because he grew up without having anything of his own, he wants things of his own and doesn't want to share with anyone. Talk about being a great Christian man. Sorry, just a rant! We must love and be compassionate towards others and give up control and power to God. He can help us care for our struggles that we may never be able to understand with us just being human.

LOL! Christians or not , we're all suffering.

I'm Christian. I haven't posted in a while, but I still check in occasionally. I failed for divorce in March after discovering my husband was cheating. It is tough facing Christmas, we had over 20 years of traditions and 2 children, so I'm just trying to hold them together through this season.
A good website to visit for Christians is
divorcecare.org

I get daily emails from that site that are pretty helpful.
Contact me any time you'd like. There are a lot of Christians on the message boards, and lots of people whose faith I do not know, but they have been very uplifting and helpful to me.

oops, I mean I "FILED" for divorce.
Talk about your Freudian slips!! hahaha

Yes, I'm a christian and it doesn't seem to matter when it comes to lying, cheating, and stealing. Seems like it hits all stripes, all religions, all walks of life.

Yes I am a Christian and it is only by the grace of God that I have remained sane through the past 7 yrs with my hubby. He is a very verbally abusive man. He claims to be a Christian as well, however his walk tells a different story.

He attacks me about being a Christian and about everything else he is jealous of, like being a good mother. However, God has opened my eyes and it don't hurt like it once did, I merely consider the source.

Just 2 weeks ago, I told my hubby that I had NO REASON to still love him. He said I know why you do. I asked WHY? He said because without you, I'm going to die and go to hell. Well I told him I can't save him from hell. Honestly, I don't have the love I once had for him. I think possibly I want our marriage to work now a lot because I do want to be a good example before him and witness to him, as I do care about his soul.

Of course the ultimate decision is HIS!! I pray daily for my hubby to completely surrender to God, that is what will save our marriage.

I wish you all the best!!!

Why? Are separated Jews so very different?

I've been a christian all my life, and mine left me last June for another man, our boss at work.. We used to work at the same place. Apparently, it had been going on 8 years behind my back... Our divorce was final that September. My parents still blame me for the whole event. They live in another city, so they thought I left her for a girl over the computer, because thats what she told them, and because I spend so much time here on dailystrength, but thats not what happened, she left me for our boss at work. He even lived with us for a while, it was not fun at all.. My brother is the only one in the family who believes me. My ex made up this whole "oh poor me bit" because she didn't want my parents to think she was a bad person. I'm like "oh yeah turn them against me in the process geez"

Anyway, because of that, and other relationships gone sour in my lifetime due to similar cheating events against me, I feel unattractive, as if I'm the ugliest man on the face of the earth or something. I mean, fighting is one thing, but if a woman withholds sex from a man for 11+ years on a regular basis, he starts to feel like he's not attractive to her anymore, and thats how I feel in general now, like I'm not attractive enough to get a good woman, so after she left me, I just gave up hope, thinking I'm not attractive enough for any woman.

Whenever I would try to talk to her about it, she would give me these excuses like, "oh I'm on water pill and not in the mood from that, or menapause keeing her from being in the mood", which I believed all of that, until I caught her cheating on me, then thats when I started feeling like I wasn't attractive enough for any woman. That and being turned down by dates with girls ever since,....

I'm a Jesus Freak and proud of it!!!
