I come on this website for advice and I guess I repeat myself, but I have been struggling with something for the past 10 months and sometimes when I get down or confused I come on here and make a post and people don't like I guess to read the same stuff. Trust me, I don't like living this way for 10 months either. But anyways.....I am struggling because of a break up and it sounds crazy or not important because I know my life could be so much worse. I struggle more with the breakup spiritually than I do because I lost a guy. This guy came into my life when I wasn't looking and wasn't ready to be in a serious relationship. After he asked me to pray for GOd to open or close this door I prayed and its like the floodworks came out. My wall that I had built up came crashing down and people all around us were saying this relationship is different and he was the first man that I wanted to ever submit too. I know God told me on numerous times that this was my husband and I even rebuked Satan in Jesus name afterwards just to make sure. Well its been 10 months and I think he might be interested in someone else and it hurts, but im not mad at him. I knew God had some work on me because I had a lot of issues from my past and even past relationships and in order for me to be the godly woman and wife and mother one day God wanted my attention and time to grow. I cant be mad for him to move on, but spiritually I battle, because that's my husband ya know? I know people think im crazy and that maybe I heard wrong or whatever, but its hard for me to let go, once I already feel this way. I asked God, Lord your going to have to take this love away, because you put there. I also would like to ask for prayer for guidance and what it is, that I need to do to be ready. I have lost almost 60 pounds in 10 months, the healthy way, I have taken trash out of my life, listen to sermons, Christian music, go to church every sunday, am involoved in a life group. I was raised Christian, but somewhere I was doing it all wrong. I didn't put Christ up front and center like I should and I always ended up putting the men in my life before GOd without even realizing it. I don't want to do that anymore, im scared that it will always happen or God might not bring anyone to me, because I know God is a jealous God. I just ask for prayer, for help, for encouragement, maybe you read something of mine just now and something stands out that im doing wrong. I feel like God is silent with me and Im trying my hardest to listen......I just have like I have no hope......

Will sure pray for you. I too had to learn to put God first. That is when he blesses you the most. We do have to be strong
and careful about the dating thing. Something i have learned is that even if we have a man in church, that is no guarantee
they will stay there. Most important is to stay strong in the Lord. When the lord gets ready he will send you someone.
Keep the faith and if he is to be your husband, the lord will bring him back.

I pray the lord take this pain off your heart and mind and replace it with peace and joy, in Jesus name, let the Lord have it, emotionally,completely and then it will happen a lot quicker

I'm in a similar situation. I'm not putting God first in my life and that's affecting me In every area of my life. I will pray for you, and ask for prayer in return. God bless you my sister.

One thing in life. We sure can not make everyone happy. So if you have a struggle. and feel the need for comfort by sharing
on CC. Then do so. There are many here that are happy to hopefully send a encouraging word to those that are hurting.
For we have all had times of extreme hurts in this fallen world.

God has control over everything that happens in our lives. We do not know why he makes some of the decisions that he does. Jesus loves you. Take comfort in knowing that God is doing what is best for you.

There is a Garth Brooks country song. Unanswered prayers?
He sings of thanking God that his prayer was not answered with his high school sweetheart. For he is now with his wife. Not being with his former High School flame anymore.

I met a girl online 5 years ago. I knew Jesus very well. But was not really focused on him at the time. She got me going to church. I thought God was happy that we were together. My thoughts were how everyone would see how happy we were together. This being a Blessing for the kingdom of God also. She was my whole life. I would have married this girl. She turned out to be a nightmare with lots of issues.

She still has pics on the dating site to this day.
Looking at her pics now. I have absolutely zero interest in her. As Garth sings. Thank the Lord for unanswered prayers.

Trust God, Have faith in the Lord. For Jesus knows what he is doing.
I ask that all of your hurts be healed. That Jesus comforts you, and guides you in which direction in life that he wishes
for you to go.
I ask this in Jesus name. AMEN!
