Husband Left, 8 Months Pregnant

[bindiren]

I am a 'baby christian'. I found the Lord three years ago and since then my life has truley changed. I have been blessed with so many things; a husband, home,job, belief in myself, the list can go on and on. I am now 8 months pregnant and so excited to meet my daughter! With all this said, my husband walked out on me a few nights ago after a horrible fight, over who knows what. He went to the bank and took all of our money out. He is staying at his mothers and left me with all of the bills that he knows I cannot afford on my own. He says he may come back only to be in his house and I can leave or stay in the unfinished basement if he never sees me. He says he wants a divorce and the minute our daughter is born he will fight to get her from me. I know that he can not do this but I am still so lost a broken. I want him to realize how important his family is and to want to stand up and fight to keep us together. He tells me that he hates me and never wants to see me again. I do not know how I can possibly do this on my own, nor do I want to. I want him to come home. He says he has faith in God but not in me.

I want my family back together so bad. I cannot imagine bringing a beautiful baby into this pain. I can't stop crying and asking why. My faith is weak. Please pray and help guide me. Scriptures would be appreciated, and maybe some I could even send to him. my heart is raw and I know I am not alone as I have the Lord but I cant feel it.

 

Lord is testing you. I am praying you still try to remain close to the father that child will need both a Mother and a father in this world try to become reunited in your family and love God I pray.

Dear Birdiren,

Know and BELIEVE that God hears our prayers. He answers them according to His good plans, in His time and with His love and wisdom. Trust in Him for He knows what is best fo us. Trust in Him even when things don't look to be the way they ought to be or wanted to be according to us. BELIEVE that ALL works out according to God's good plans. As you await God's answers to your prayers, I send you the following. My prayers are with you.

When a Christian man selects a Christian woman to become his wife, she becomes the perfect compliment for him. She is exactly what is needed to make the man a complete and whole person. The two become one: "For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh" (Eph. 5:31). This was the plan and the intention of God from the very beginning.



What a joyous and fulfilling experience it is when we do things in God's way and according to His eternal plan! A Christian marriage should last until death - one husband, one wife, for life. The Bible says, “The woman who has a husband is bound by the law to her husband as long as he lives” (Rom. 7:2; cf. Rom. 2:11). Whether the days together are few or many, words cannot really describe the happiness and fulfillment enjoyed by both partners from this God ordained relationship. There is no such thing as "married singles" to be found in the Bible. A Christian husband and wife are one in thought, activity, and purpose.



In 1 Corinthians 11:3 we read: "But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God." God's chain of authority for the home is as follows: God, Christ, the husband, the wife, and then the children. The husband should be the dominant figure in the family. Of course, it is impossible for the husband to be the dominant one if the wife does not allow him to be, and will not submit to his authority. It is not degrading, in any sense of the word, for a woman to submit to the authority of her husband. Instead of being degrading, it is ennobling and elevates a woman to a higher plane than she has ever enjoyed before! Ephesians 5:23 says: "For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and He is the savior of the body."

GOD BLESS YOU!

Amen.

Father I pray for restoration of this marriage and a healthy family. Amen

Dear bindiren

Just out of concern if you are connected to a church..if you are not, it will be great that you get involved with a local church as the members will be able to minister to you and your family in a more direct and personal fashion. Meanwhile just read the book of Psalms where there are many encouraging words from Him to you. I will keep you in my prayer too, bindiren.

1 The LORD is my light and my salvation;

Whom shall I fear?

The LORD is the strength of my life;

Of whom shall I be afraid?

7 Hear, O LORD, when I cry with my voice!

Have mercy also upon me, and answer me.

8 When You said, “Seek My face,”

My heart said to You, “Your face, LORD, I will seek.”

9 Do not hide Your face from me;

Do not turn Your servant away in anger;

You have been my help;

Do not leave me nor forsake me,

O God of my salvation.

10 When my father and my mother forsake me,

Then the LORD will take care of me.



11 Teach me Your way, O LORD,

And lead me in a smooth path, because of my enemies.

12 Do not deliver me to the will of my adversaries;

For false witnesses have risen against me,

And such as breathe out violence.

13 I would have lost heart, unless I had believed

That I would see the goodness of the LORD

In the land of the living.



14 Wait on the LORD;

Be of good courage,

And He shall strengthen your heart;

Wait, I say, on the LORD!-Psalm 27

Lord in Your great tendermercies, may this precious word of Yours becomes so real and personal to bindiren that she is able to trust You no matter what. ANd if she is not connected to a church, may she find the one that You have for the to be planted in as we ask all these in Your precious Name, Jesus, amen.
