Hello Everyone....

So I was on this site once before, seeking and trying to learn. I was married at the time, but my husband has since left me....after 12 years of marriage he announced he is gay and left me and our two children. While I know this is a total lie of the devil I also do know God still has his hand on mine and my childresn lives and I am continuing to seek God's best for us. I've always been drawn to poly marriages, I'm just not sure still if it's for today's christians. Still searching for confirmation...
We could use a lot of prayer....especially the kids. Son is 6 and my daughter is 11. They love Jesus very much and know He loves them, so they have a good foundation there....

Thanks,
Donna
 
Hello and welcome.

I am sorry to hear about your husband. It will not be easy - are you at least surrounded by friends and family who can help you?

I will definitely say some prayers for you and your little ones.
 
I can't even begin to understand how a man could think that or leave his family for it, but Satan certainly likes to destroy families. Will be praying for you also, particularly your children.

Don't rush into anything else. How long ago did he leave? The ideal situation is obviously for God to work in him and bring him back. If there's no hope of that and God has another family for you, He is powerful enough to put that so obviously in your face that you didn't need to be seeking it to find it.
 
I don't know what to say exactly......just wanted to post so you don't feel alone right now. Sorry for your situation and I know that God will carry you through this thing....
 
Thank you all for the kind words. And trust me when I say I'm not looking or wanting to rush in to anything...however with that being said, I've been married "single" for 12 years and being lonely isn't something that just happened when he left physically...he abandoned me long ago, physically, emotionally and most importantly spiritually.
So while the act of him leaving occurred a month ago, it was really just a move in geography. I will not stop praying that somewhere out there there is a Godly man who will love me and my children the way God intended and that a man will rise up and be a real man and shelter us and care for us. Not that I can't do that on my own...but I want a family the way God created families to be.
I have a devotional that I get sent to my email every morning and this morning it just so happened to be about Naomi and Ruth...wow, timely doesn't even cover it! My mom is a widow and lives with me and with my husband leaving and no men in our immediate family either willing or capable to stand in the gap for me and my kids has been hard...but the story of Naomi and Ruth reminded me how much God cares and how He will send us to the right family that HE and only He can provide...it gave me comfort and hope to make it through one more day...God's word is alive and I am so grateful for that!

Hugs,
Donna
 
Hi Donna,

I am beginning to believe your situation isn't all that uncommon. I mean, it's not ordinary, by a long shot, but my own aunt had a husband disclose to her that he was gay and they had been married very happily for many many years, according to her. It broke her heart. I worked with a woman that had experienced the same thing with her husband, and she said she hadn't had a clue that he was gay before.

Donna, do you have close family to lean on through this trial? I feel for you, girl. Get my number from Nathan if you want to call me. I don't have any surefire answers for you, but I'll gladly give you a shoulder to lean on as you try to sort this out. God bless you, Jan Higgins
 
Welcome Donna! I am so sorry to hear about your situation right now. I will be praying for you and the kids. I hope you will at least find some positive relationships here on this site. We are glad you are here.
 
Good Morning...
Thank you all for the encouragement and willingness to talk and share and most importantly PRAY! I am trusting that through this God's will and glory will be revealed and I know he's molding me and making me in to the woman He wants me to be! I will keep in touch and keep you updated on what God is doing! :)

Donna

I hope you find what you need and are looking for.

I would add to that, the fact that if you can get some godly men to rebuke him enough, Scripture warns such people who harden their necks, that they will be removed permanently. Prov 27:1
