Divorce and Family

Hi Everyone. I'm so glad that I have learned about the DAB community, it couldn't have come into my life at a better time.
I really need prayer for a situation that I am going through. 3 years ago at age 21 I eloped with my first boyfriend who moved here from another country. I loved him very much but now our marriage is over and he is not interested in fixing the issues we have had. It has been a long exhausting time and I am heartbroken from the abuse that I have gone through with him. I try to still be a respectful wife and rarely talk about the details of our relationship, but it has drained everything out of me. He is not a believer and my relationship with him has taken me away from the church, but now I am returning to my relationship with God and for this, I couldn't be happier. But my marriage has created such deep emotional issues, I really need prayer for God to fix them. I am struggling with depression, as I have become so isolated since my marriage and I also need God to release me from this as well as fix my desperately broken heart. I cannot rely on my family at this time, as my mother and father divorced 3 years ago, and I do not have a relationship with them. I also need for God to interceede to fix a decision I made to try and help my siblings. Due to some issues my mother had with the court during her divorce, she was unable to qualify for a loan for both of my brothers education, and asked me to cosign for two of their semesters in school. It was a large loan and I am afraid it may hinder my ability to buy a house in the near future. I am really trusting God to get me removed as a cosigner on this loan so I can be financially free again and take steps to rebuild myself after this divorce.
Also, I met a man my age who has been trying to be supportive of me as I am going through this divorce. It is very tempting as my husband has never supported me or valued me, but I think this man is a distraction from the enemy and I do not want to find my worth in another relationship. I just ask that you pray that this situation goes away and that I don't get caught up with him because I am at a vulnerable spot in my life. I want to be clean before God. Please pray that my mind and eyes would stay on Jesus and that he would shelter me from this situation and any situation like it.
Mostly, I need peace in this situation and I would appreciate any prayers for God to just cover me under the shadow of his wing as I go through this moment in my life. I know he wont leave me or forsake me, but I am going through such a difficult time with the feeling of rejection from my husband and family, sometimes I am so overwhelmed. Please pray he would bless me on my new job and bless the business I just opened. As my business takes off, I will also be dabbling in real estate just to make a little money to support me during my divorce. I know its a lot but I am praying God will come through for me in any 3 of these ventures.
Please just keep me in your prayers over the next few months, that I would stay on the narrow path and that my heart would not be hardened by this situation.

Praying for you to stay on the right path and be strong. You can do this. Find some good accountability partners that you can share with, or a good older mentor through your church that could help you walk through your situation.

Hello Krysten!
I have a long story..wont tell it now, too much to type!! I became a Christian 5 years ago, while in the midst of my divorce, I left new York city, came to Switzerland, married the man I loved and then found out things about him. I already had a child when I left him, but I found the greatest love of all JESUS...and I don't think about being without a partner, although I do miss adult conversation.
Keep your eyes and heart undivided...Gods wants our whole heart. He has a plan and maybe you got away from that man because you need to get back your relationship with your heavenly father...the one who loves you more than any human being can or will!!!! Bless you my sister in faith and take all your burdens to the feet of Jesus, he has already freed you..just embrace it!!

Krysten, you might find some needed fellowship in a church that offers Divorce Care, at least that's what it's called at my church. It's a purpose driven study about the realities you'll be facing, including some things you've already identified. Praying for you sister.

Thank you so much JT and Chris. Chris, I will look into this program. Can I also add one more prayer request? Since I decided to go back to the Lord 100%, I keep feeling this horrible guilt for all the time I wasted living outside of his plan, I even have a little fear that it's "too late", that I was disobedient, and I'm having a hard time accepting the idea of grace and foriveness from God. Please pray that this will be silenced so that I can just continue to focus on getting my life right with God again.
