1 | Can a woman divorce man: Ongoing porn? | Matthew | bandaid | 212590 | ||
Keliy, This is NOT the place for you to push your opinions and ideals on me. If you do not have any bible references to my question, then please save your advice for another site and leave these questions for someone who DOES know if there are any. This is as I understand a Bible Study Forum. I will be kind but blunt since I have already advised you. You have no clue of my situation and I have other places I go for information, accountability and spiritual advice. If you cannot answer the questions given, then move on and please leave me alone. If you continue to harass me I will advise the forum leader. | ||||||

Dear bandaid, Please forgive me, I meant no harm, I do realize that I do have a problem with being blunt at times. Even in personal situations, I have a problem with being too honest about what I feel -sometimes to the point of being brutal. My honest answer to you, since I do see that you have long been making an honest effort, is just keep doing exactly what you are doing. The reason is because God oftentimes waits to move until all other resources are expended. I know it is hard, But. -God does this so we know that it is nothing that we possibly could have done to bring about the change that we are working so hard for. Or else He can do the work and we will take the credit. When the Lord finally steps in, we always know that it is Him and we might say, "Lord, what took you so long" through eyes that are wet with tears of joy. Then we can give Him glory as we come to understand. I have seen this and lived this over and over. Having bore children, you know at least as well as I that the outcome is worth the pain. I am not saying it is easy, just that it is do-able with strength from above. So at the risk of sounding 'preachy', I would like to bring you to the end of Heb 10: 35.)Therefore, do not throw away your confidence, which has a great reward. 36.)For you have need of endurance, so that when you have done the will of God, you may receive what was promised. 37.)FOR YET IN A VERY LITTLE WHILE, HE WHO IS COMING WILL COME, AND WILL NOT DELAY. 38.)BUT MY RIGHTEOUS ONE SHALL LIVE BY FAITH; AND IF HE SHRINKS BACK, MY SOUL HAS NO PLEASURE IN HIM. 39.)But we are not of those who shrink back to destruction, but of those who have faith to the preserving of the soul. (the caps are not mine, but in the NASB) So I sincerely hope that you are receiving some amount of succorance from the many posts you have received. Even if you do not get the answer you were looking for. All the hearts here do pray for you and wish you the very best in this, possibly the worst situation you might ever go through. It also doesn't help to carry on a convo with a dozen people at a time, but hey, we all do our best (o: When I go through a problematic situation involving others, I go to where our Lord once told me to go, as He said "The answer is in Colossians" and I have found Chapter 3 to be particularly beneficial. Below is an excerpt for your benefit: Again, you are in my prayers, and I promise to fast as well, keliy 12 Put on then, as God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience, 13 bearing with one another and, if one has a complaint against another, forgiving each other; as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive. 14 And above all these put on love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony. 15 And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body. And be thankful. 16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God. 17 And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him. |
