I made it through the weekend. God has sustained me by the friendship, love, and counsel of some very dear friends of mine that took me in this weekend and sowed life into me.

God ministered to me very strongly this weekend.

I stayed with friends who live on the side of a ridge, and the view from the ridge was magnificent. I could see 20+ miles in nearly every direction... it was such a blatant spiritual metaphor that it really revived my perspective.

In the end, God has lifted me above my current situation and need and has shown me down the road and has spoken into my heart that come what may, he is my deliverer and he is my guide and he is my leader and he is my shepherd and HE will carry me through this.

He is so close to me that as the tears flowed down my cheek... they flowed down his at the same time. He is with me and he will hold my hand through this.

Even if Dee does not come back to me, I will not be alone.

Ron, I have been praying for you all weekend that you would look to the Lord for your strength during this and lean not to your own understanding.

It sounds like you are doing exactly what I have been praying you would. Keep on holding on to the Lord and let him lead you and guide you through this. At times that is going to be easier said than done but keep doing it.

The enemy of our souls would use things like this to destroy us and we must not allow that to happen.

God Bless

Ron,

The Lord gave me a scripture yesterday to use in my own life. I never looked at it in this way before but it was powerful.

I John 4:18

There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear:because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.

When our love for God becomes perfect. Fear has to flee. If we lose everything around us, God's love WILL sustain us and our love for HIM.

God will keep you and encourage you everyday. I believe that no matter what the outcome you will come out of this more victorious and stronger than ever before.

We are still praying for you and Dee. God is with you, He has not left you.

Bro. Ronzo,

Continuing to pray for you! GOD WILL see you both through if you

will look to Him! Picture a triangle with God at the top! You on one side

of the bottom and Dee on the opposite side. As you both go upward

toward God, you automatically become closer as you come near Him.

The enemy will never tell you to use that example! Never!

Picture a row of three, God, man and woman. We think of God, man

standing next to God and then the woman next to man. I do not believe

that is the best!! It should man (GOD) woman. GOD smack dab in the

middle of the marriage!! I've proved it and it works!! If I had known what

I know now, we would have had less difficulties in our earlier years of

marriage. I do not have to go through my husband or any other person

to get to God! We must let NOTHING BETWEEN our soul and our SAVIOR.

I feel the Holy Ghost recently spoke to me and said that ANYTHING or

ANYBODY that comes BETWEEN God and me, has the potential to become

a stumbling block! If I fall I want to fall into HIS ARMS!!! Face to face in

all HIS GLORY!!!! I can see HIM, FACE to FACE..!! Is HE a PERSONAL SAVIOR

or other!

I realize this could be taken wrongly! But, friend, if HE's not first,

where is HE!! I am not talking about authority to the laws of the land, etc.

Children must obey parents. Parents must teach respect for elders. We all

must be accountable to those whose authority we are under! Children,

employers, etc. Governments, unless it is in conflict with God's laws.

Others perhaps!

I love my husband of almost 48 yrs. He's my sweetheart but he's not

MY GOD!!!! AND he has no problem with that! If he asks me not to put

anything on the credit card for any reason, I will not do it!! If he asks me

to do something within reason that I can do for him, I will try to do it for

him. We are companions! We help each other! It's not this, I'm the BOSS

and you are the servant! No! That is not right! We all could probably be more

considerate of each other, whether we be husband and wife, brother or

sister, child and parent, etc. We are to be kind to one another, tender-

hearted, forgiving one another, even as GOD has forgiven us!!! Let us

therefore do good to all men, especially the household of GOD! WE are

all accountable to GOD, our Creator. He holds our breath in His Hands.

Godly fear is wisdom, knowledge and understanding! The fear of man

bringeth a snare (trap). May these words minister to someone today,

in Jesus Name!!

Blessings,

Dear Brother Ronzo,

Forgive me if you were offended by my words. I will assure you they

were not intended to finger point at ANYONE!! But if you cannot receive

it, please forgive me, but they were for someone! Everyone cannot bear

some words but there will be someone who can and will!!

Really, I was not thinking about who left who but some very important

words, we will all need someday.

Ron,
I don't believe Sister Falla was trying to hurt you in any way. It's not always good just to pat someone on the back and say, "Everything is going to be all right."

Like you said to me, "It takes two."

It certainly does. I can attest to that.

I've been through it myself and my mother didn't take up for me.

When my daughter and her husband were having problems she wanted to come and stay with us a few days.

I told her, "No, you aren't going to do that. You can be mad at him at your house as well as here. I didn't cut and run every time I was mad at your father."

Did she get upset at me? Sure, but they worked it out. I wasn't going to pat her on the back and say, "You're great. It's his fault. I'm so sorry you are hurting."

That wouldn't have helped her at all.

Hey, Ron, I just tuned into this thread and haven't read the whole thing. I'm very sorry. My prayers are with the both of you. Maybe you can still work it out in time....??? I will be praying that God give you wisdom in this time.

Bro. Ronzo,

What I had to say wasn't really about who left first or who

was right. Or who was or was not following God or putting God first.

Evidently what I posted had nothing to do with you whatsoever!

As of tonight, Dee says that she is going to get the process started for divorce.

As much as it KILLS me to even type that... there is a sense of "at least I'm not wondering anymore". Call me calloused... call me whatever... but at least I'm not wondering... I know where this is going, and that makes it a little easier to digest... although not by much...

Thank you for your prayers.

I'm sorry to burden you all with this.

Ron, I've been thinking about your post since I first read it. I can't say that I can relate because I have not been where you are...so to say that I understand how you feel would be meaningless.

And even if I were wise enough to have all the answers, advice and unending platitudes are not what you need at this juncture.

What you need is what we are giving...our deep concern, 24/7 presence (there is always somebody online here), and sincere prayers.

We are here, Ron...not to preach or tell you this or that, but we're here because we care. :kittyhug

The days are not easy right now, but prayerfully the thought that unseen faces and hearts DO care and are calling your name before the Lord will bring comfort.:)

That is true.When my marriage partner was backslidden my best friend held things against him that I have since forgiven.It took her though alot longer to do so and I am think it still taints her view of him.It was not any deep horrible things that he did but he treated me in way she deemed hurtful and I learned not to share anything with her nor answer questions that would cause her to
dislike him.I think it caused her to not trust him even to this day and he is a wonderful christian man who fasts and prays and loves God.

Bro. Ron,

Sis. Trouvere has given some very sound advice. Like me, she has also went through similar things. I thank God every day for a Pastor, Bro. Richard Martin, who counseled me through the roughest time going through my divorce. He provided wisdom and insight counseling...wisdom straight from God.

I know you have many friends, and friends are wonderful to have in times like these, but don't neglect to counsel with your Pastor, your spiritual leader, the man God has placed over you for such times as this.

Relying on one's self for encouragement, going to the word for encouragement & Direction, and going to friends for love and affirmation is wonderful...but nothing can replace the office of Pastor that Christ has put over you for your well-being.

You may be surprised...the Pastor may just have the word you need to overcome!

Blessings, Sis. Rhonda

A visiting evangelist preached an awesome sermon last night. He talked about Job and how that God allowed the devil only so much latitude but there was certain things the devil would not let him do with or to Job.

God knows how strong you are. He made you tuff! This will not destroy you but it will make you stronger. When God has us on the Potter's wheel...he pushes, pulls, flattens, and reworks the clay. The process hurts and it seems like it will never end...but rest assured...

He who hath begun a good work in you will complete it..regardless of circumstances and what others do or don't do to help us along. God doesn't promise all good things will happen to us as we journey...but he did promise to make all the things that the devil meant to destroy or make us give up...to turn to our good. You know this. Trust Him.

Prayers, Sis. Rhonda

Not unless you count the cats as kids... and we do... but no real kids, no, thank God.

No house. No other joint assets except the car, which she's letting me keep and not forcing me to sell.

She wants a clean break. Start over with her own life and wants nothing from me at all. An uncontested, 'non-messy' divorce.

I know how sad and hurt you must feel. I've been in your shoes and the ending wasn't what I'd prayed for.

I don't know what to say to ease your pain because only God and time will take care of that.

I'm praying for you.

Ronzo, I just read this thread after being away for a few days. My prayers are with you buddy! I've been in your shoes, so I know your world is turned upside down right now.

Remember..It's not how many times you fall that matters, it's how many times you pick yourself back up!

Me too. It never fails that when one of us needs prayer, the rest are here to send up prayers and give support.

That's how it should be.
