Am not that good at encouraging statements, but i pray whatever i say may bring peace and joy to you and remind you of true love.
When something like this happens it is devastating, but the most important thing you can do is cast the burden on Him who loves you the most, let Him take it all, and use this time to reverse the feeling of hurt by praying and spending time in worship. Love you, Shemaiah

KezE, you are dealing with more right now than anyone can imagine. Many have been through similiar situations and can feel empathetic, but each one's battle is their own. We don't know why God allows things to happen as they do sometimes, but we know that he will not leave us. He is there for you, loving you and will carry you through this valley if you let him. Let him. If the only prayer you can form is 'Help..help..help..HELP! HELP!!' then start there. When I'm at a loss, broken and confused, this simple prayer has reached the gates of heaven many times and yielded a swift return.
A verse that became my daily dose of strength at a time such as yours is 2 Timothy 2:13: Even when we are too weak to have any faith left, he remains faithful to us and will help us, for he cannot disown us who are part of himself, and he will always carry out his promises to us. (TLB)
My heart, thoughts, and prayers are with you. God bless you, keep you, encourage you, strengthen you, and fill you with his perfect peace and comfort.

Hi, I feel so sad for you. I know about two my husband had but there could be more. I often wondered how someone could do this and not have a conscience about it? he still doesn't and that hurts a lot. I will keep you in my prayers. I suppose sometimes these things happen for a reason? I mean perhaps God has something so much better for us? someone who will love us and respect us enough not to cheat or go against the word. All the best to you. Sending you a big hug from Darwin. x God Bless You.

Refuse to be swayed by satan! When you got married to your husband you became one person. Let nothing put asunder. Look out for the good things he ever did and stop looking at the wrongs they can't make a right. Looking away from every distracting thing and putting our gaze on Jesus the author and finisher of faith. Heaven is ur permanent home not here. Look up and work. Be healed in name of the Lord Jesus. Amen.

Dear KezE,
As ChozN said, no one can know exactly what you are going through right now but we have all experienced similar times. Some of what is going through your mind right now is, "God, why did you let this happen to me?" And, "God, why did you make me find out about it?" And, "God, how will I ever get through this?" When I have faced these questions, I have taken comfort (in later life) in knowing that God loves me; just as He loves you. Psalm 36, verse 7, says "How priceless is your unfailing love, O God! People take refuge in the shadow of your wings." And while I know that this is far from your mind right now, I also find solace in Romans 8, verse 28, "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him,..."
God is sovereign over all things. You can be assured that He knows what you are going through, and that He longs to hold you in His arms and comfort you. Isaiah 25, verse 8, says "The Sovereign Lord will wipe away the tears from all faces; he will remove his people’s disgrace from all the earth."
So, my (admittedly feeble) advice would be "give your problem to God". Cry, scream, tear your hair, all in His presence. He will understand and send you the comfort you need to begin to face your situation. You are never closer to God than when you feel He is furthest away.
God bless you.

First of all I want to say that I am terribly sorry to hear that. I can't imagine how hard that must be for you.
Pray and ask God for the strength and courage, because He does care for you. He feels the sadness that you feel, because He is your Father in Heaven, and loves you with unconditional love. He has counted every tear we have cried and knows more about us than we do ourselves.
Psalm 34:18 “The Lord is near to the broken-hearted, and saves the crushed in spirit.”
I know I cannot relate to what you're going through, but when I have felt pain in life, I cried to God. I poured out my heart and every feeling I had to Him. There was an amazing peace that overcame me and God longs to give the same to you.
Matthew 5:4 “Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.”
In a song I once listened to, there was a line that said "I'm giving up, but not giving in," and these words have a great meaning. Give up your life to God, and do not give in to the devil. Satan will try anything to put you down and will fight till he gets what he wants. God will not fight, for He is a God of love and peace, but He will wait on us to ask for help. Once you ask for help and God comes into the picture, satan will flee and you will be filled with comfort and joy from God's presence. He loves and cares for you and will never fail you.
I will definitely pray for you that God will comfort you during this time. Just remember, He's there for you whenever you need Him, at any time of the day, or night. He wants to hear your voice and longs for it. Cry to Him, cast all your cares up to Him, and never give up. No matter how hard life gets, no matter what happens, praise Him in the storm. Just as Peter kept his eyes upon Jesus when he walked on the water, and while the sea raged around him, keep your eyes on the Lord while this sea rages around you.

Maybe God is trying to tell you something.... Maybe it is the only way he could get your attention to make you move in your life. It happens and it is scary. Just remember God's ways are not our ways. I find that when things like that happen God has been trying to get you to do something for a while and he literally had to shake you from your foundation to finally make you move.

Thank you for the encouragement! I have kept my eyes on Him through this all but there have been times when my heart is hurting so much I feel I can hardly breathe. The tears streamed down my face as I read your messages - thank you! I will keep crying out to Him & offering sacrifices of praise through the pain. I have perfect confidence in His faithfulness & that is carrying me through right now. He has promised me that His plan for me is to prosper me & not to harm me, to give me hope & a future. That gives me peace

Thanks zeroturbulence! God has been speaking to me about the same thing. I've struggled with the injustice of it - I'm the one who was devoted to the marriage, constantly reading marriage books, praying fervently, listening to CDs on marriage, etc while he was putting his time & energy into other relationships (unknown to me at the time). And now I'm the one who is hurt & broken. But God is just & His justice will prevail!
