Please pray for me for guidance..I have been away from my ex husband for over a year, divorced for 3 months. I met someone else and I love him for his kindness to me and finally showing me what love feels like. (not sex) I have felt alone most of my 29 year marriage, should have never married my ex but I was not walking with the Lord at the time though I was saved. I feel bad that I do not love my ex husband, that I am denying Christ by refusing to love him. I don’t hate him, I feel sorry for him. He doesn’t know how to love, and let his life be ruled by alcohol and drugs, didn’t let me try and now he’s sorry..we all need healing. I know why God hates divorce, yes, it causes so much pain even if you want it. I just want to do the right thing now and not hurt anyone and I’m tired of hurting inside.

Hi, I want you to know that you are not alone in the way your feeling toward your ex-husband. I feel the same way, I don’t hate him, or love him, I just feel sorry for him too. We were married for 37 yrs and I always felt alone, He didn’t know how to show or receive Love. He has destroyed his life, my life and the life of our 4 children because of alcohol. I know God hates divorce, but he does desire for all of us to have a close relationship with him so we can fulfill the emptiness in our heart. I lost many years of my life because I felt sorry for him. Now I’m dealing with the pain of feeling sorry for myself for not realizing sooner that he wasen’t going to change. Be careful in your decisions, seek God and he will lead you with his peace.My husband was sorry many, many times until I gave him another chance, Don’t allow yourself to be deceived, you deserve to be loved and treated nice.Keep your eyes and heart on the Lord, not on your feelings. He will reveal the truth. God Bless Donna
