My husband of 12 years has decided he wants a divorce. We have 2 children that I am so concerned about. My husband told me about 2 1/2 months ago that he doesn’t believe he has ever really loved me. (we were high school sweethearts so we actually dated 8 yrs. before we were married). He tells me he is a homosexual and has had an affair in the last year. He believes that it is God’s will for us to get a divorce. I do not see it that way. Of course I don’t really want to be in a relationship that I am not loved. But God hates divorce. I can’t imagine how it is possible that it can be God’s will for us to get a divorce. To me it goes against what I read in the Bible. Of course I now have the permission to get a divorce since he had an affair. But that does not mean I have to get one. He has not left yet because he thinks i just need a little more time to realize that a divorce is what is right. He wants me to help make the decisions. How can I make these decisions if I know God does not want me to divorce. I am not allowed to tell anyone we know about the homosexual part. So it is hard to get much input on the situation. (sorry this is so long and there is so much more that could be said!!)
I will be honest and say I am not sure how to ask you to pray. There are so many things. Please pray the the Lord changes his heart. Please pray that someone is lead my God to speak to my husband. Please pray for our children. I don’t want them to be hurt. What concerns me the most about this is their spiritual growth. How difficult it will be to have dad say it is God’s will to divorce while mom believes it is God’s will to stay as an intact family.
Thank you so much for praying. I so appreciate it.
