Hi 231, I will pray for you also that you will have strength to do the right thing! I would like you to see through the eyes of the Lord on this matter. I’ve read through your posts and have an idea of what you are dealing with. Do you realize that you are actually the OM? I know you don’t want to hear that, because you are in love with this W. But do you know that if this was truly of God, that no matter what, it will be? I can tell you right now, that God hates divorce. And the fact that your GF is not yet divorced, means that you are committing adultery. God is very clear in His Word, that we are not to covet our neighbor’s wife! I know you feel you are in love, and I’m not saying that you aren’t. But it doesn’t make it right if she is married. The only grounds for divorce according to the Bible is adultery, so if her H has committed adultery, then she is free to divorce him and remarry, but if not, she is not. God has joined this man and woman together, and they should stay together because they vowed it before God and man, not to mention each other. You are treading where you should not. If you truly believe that you and her are meant to be, back away from her. Let her life go where it is supposed to. Do not contact her, let her go, if you are meant to be, she will be back, with a divorce, if it is God‘s will. If she has left her first husband, what makes you think that she will not leave you one day?
I am not trying to judge you 231, just to show you God’s Word in this. I leave the judging up to Him. Know that you will have tons of support on this site, to get you through this time. But, not if you continue to be the OM. Please do the right thing.
Just to make it clear about her Born Again mother, she is trying to do what the Lord would want, because she knows the Bible, not because she is a fanatic, she is trying to help a marriage stay together, and you are being the "assunder" that one talks about in the vows made. EG. What God has joined together, let no man put assunder! Seek God's will for your life, you will be amazed at what He will bring into your life! A love greater than you could ever imagine!
God Bless,
