I'm looking for some advice. I have gone thru a whirlwind.... when I agreed to marry my fiance' my life changed completely. I left a full time job, and moved 3 hours from home..... it got worse after the marriage. Accusations, blaming, nothing ever good enough, major money issues. He even accused me me of sleeping with one of his family members within a week that we were married. Six weeks after our marriage I was told to leave ... or else. I left. Since then we have been divorced. My biggest desire is to serve the Lord but I have to admit I have all of these feelings that I can't seem to do anything with. I've prayed and pleaded.... I've begun to reclaim my life.... but I feel so broken. Nothing seems to help. Any suggestions?

I have/still am going through a situation of just a bunch of garbage with a bad marriage. I doubted God, beat myself up about all the mistakes I did make, and blamed myself for ones I didn't. I can tell you first off you need to find some good church friends that you can call on and just unload to, that won't judge you or your ex, and be able to pray with about all these specific feelings your having. You also need to quiet yourself before God. Read your bible and pray daily, doesn't matter what you read or pray about, just keep an open connection with God constantly.

Another big thing that helps is realizing who you are in Christ. God took special care to make you exactly the way you are. We all have flaws, but part of Gods beautiful picture is seeing Him work in us and through us to overcome anything that keeps us from Him, and progress in our relationship with Him. Definitely get some friends to connect with and pray with, and definitely do not forget to spend time with Jesus on your own, tell him exactly how you feel and don't worry about offending Him, because He already knows what your thinking, it's just important that you communicate with Him and tell Him yourself.

IDK how to handle that sort of situation but i know when i'm feeling down listening to nothing but worship music really makes me feel closer to God. and i don't just mean christian music. i mean worship only. try it for a full week. i promise you'll notice a difference.

keep going from there. i once hear someone say." you have two good lets there, use em" ^_^

you'll find out where you're supposed to go eventually.

I know christian counseling can help. Also, do you have a church family? You can ask a sister in Christ to walk alongside you during this season of your life. Does your church offer any support groups?

I will be praying for you. <3

Often time is the biggest healer. When we first go through a bad experience it seems like the pain will never subside and we can't see an end. But as long as you take an active role in recovering and choose to not focus on the negative aspects and become bitter, then one day you'll wake up and realize how much better you've been doing, without even knowing it.
A tip i've learned that helps is not to focus on now, and how far off healing seems to be, but focus on a month from now, or 6 months from now. When you know you'll be better. It sounds silly, but it works, it helps the time go by faster.

I totally agree with Ugly. Give yourself some time to heal and breathe.
