Hello, all. I'm a 35-year-old woman whose husband walked out today. I found him cheating two months ago, and was trying to see if we could work things out (with counseling help, etc., which never happened), but he'd get very angry whenever I'd talk about my feelings, and this morning when I was explaining why I didn't feel I could trust him, he blew up and ended up leaving. He calmed down a bit while he was packing, but I'm pretty sure my marriage is over, and I'm beyond devastated and alone. He doesn't want to even "try" anymore and

The house seems so empty. He took all his clothes and most of his belongings. The empty side of the closest sends a pang through my heart when I see it, and I'm so scared of trying to do it all on my own. I'm trying to trust in God and believe he will provide for me and heal my heart, but I'm really weak right now. Please send me prayers?

Praying for you linds. I know it seems like the end of your world but it's just the beginning of the rest of your life. Some day you will look back and smile at your old life and you will have perfect understanding of why it happened and how it turned out to be for the best. If he was going to continue cheating further along the line then it really is for the best, you deserve better - you know you do.

Remember you are never alone, God is with you always holding your hand throughout. God tells us in His word that when we get to Heaven there will be no more tears or suffering, God will dry your tears but in this life you are still young and the world is your oyster.

Do you have children? Family who can help you through this? You have brothers and sisters here on CC, never forget that! Prayers going out for you. God bless you.

That may be or may not be the case Beard, but either way it's not a comfort for her with it all being so fresh.

Linds, this section is more for introducing yourself. We have a section just for prayer requests. You may be better off posting this there. Some good prayer warriors there that may not visit this area.

Even so, I'm going through a similar thing. My wife cheated on me and left months back. I still cry myself to sleep and am waiting for God to move in my life. I will also be praying for you and my heart breaks for you in what you're going through. Seriously, lean not on your understanding, because we *can't* understand this. We only know we need love and faithfulness, comfort and presence. The purest and realest can only come from God. In the most devastating time in our lives, let us worship Him. Maybe He will show us His face and bless us. Maybe things will be better tomorrow in some way. I don't know, but I love you, sister, and I'm so so sorry for this hurt. God bless and protect and comfort you in every way, and may you draw close to Him and He close to you. Amen.

Welcome Linds, Now is not the time for helpful advice. We would want you to know we are sorry. We care for both of you and God loves you. This was hard, and we are here to share if you need us. It's true the prayer threads will be another option to go for more support. But I hope you have family close and friends. If not they have moderators to help in counseling too. But I know I will be praying for you. Trust in God, He will be with you every step of this experience. Surrender all to Him and He will guide you thru it. It is a crushing blow I know, But there are people who genuinely care for you. OK?!! May God be your refuge right now!

Dear Father

I pray for our new Sister that has a broken heart right now. Please rush to her side and send Angels to guard and protect her and she needs to rest in Your arms of love right now. Thank You for being with her and give her the comfort and strength she will need in the coming days. If her husband is a Christian and even if he is not please give him a change of heart and help them to be able to get the counseling they need, if is doesn't work that way then help her to be able to carry on.

Please help someone close to her to be able to give her moral support and help her. Please help her to reach out to her Pastor for some counsel and comfort. You know the entire situation Father and I leave her in Your hands. Thank You in Jesus Name Amen.

Father

There are others too on this thread who have been hurt and I pray You also be with them and bring comfort and peace plus Your strength to carry on... In Jesus Name Amen.

We feel the pain of betrayal and separation deeply at the core of our soul. It feels as if our heart is actually breaking--because of course, it is. God understands this experience because He Himself has lived thru a broken heart. Thru His love for us, He has endured unfaithfulness and desertion. God understands our loneliness and identifies with us. You can talk to Him about this experience and ask Him for help at the deepest point of despair-because He's been there Himself.

"Father, you care deeply for many in this room that are suffering with a broken-heart. This is a promise you make; you are close. We pray for both Linds and Polar who are crippled by broken relationships, along with many unspoken. Our hearts take the blow of disappointment. We feel crushed because our hopes are dashed. God, heal these broken hearts. We cannot fix our own wounds, but You can. If pieces of their heart have been lost, or one held captive by another, recover them and bring them back to their loved ones, and miraculously "Put them back together" so that their heart may be whole again. You, Lord, are a mender of broken hearts. We ask for this miracle, in the name of Jesus...Amen!

HEY dont be discouraged. God is more than willing to help. He KNOWS how much this hurts and just wants you to turn to him. TRY this just lay down and tell GOD EVERYTHING, every single little detail. just talk to him and watch him work wonders. MIRACLES no matter how big or small can happen. GOD AND JESUS ADORE YOU AND LOVE YOU , AND I LOVE YOU. I WILL PRAY FOR YOUR STRENGTH AND DELIVERANCE. STAY STRONG BABES.

God, I pray for Linds that you would put your arms around her right now and comfort her heart..I pray for your peace that passes understanding to flow through her. I pray for your love to be evident to Linds in ways that she cannot deny that You are there for her. Please send her tangible evidence of You to guide her and comfort her through this unimaginably difficult time. Let her friends and family gather around her to help her in these days ahead. Give Linds the forgiveness that she needs to have for him in order to heal herself, for we as humans cannot find that within ourselves without Your help. Bless her, Lord. Amen
