    Exactly. We don’t realize how much we need God as our husband and Savior and Provider et al-until we need Him to walk us through our traumatic events. So true.

    I’m so glad That you all say it’s normal to walk through all of the pain. My so called friends and family all wanted me to get over it all quickly. It was a 42 year marriage. Sure don’t want to go back. But all of the trauma and emotional abuse is hard to forget. As time goes on it does get easier. In all your way’s acknowledge Him and He will make your paths straight!! Proverbs 3:6. God walked by my side all the way!!!❤✝️

    Coming out of a 21 year marriage. Got married at age 22. It’s been very toxic as he is an alcoholic and has a lot of anger issues from childhood trauma. I am the opposite. It was a recipe for disaster as I wanted sooo badly to save him. But couldn’t. Love y’all.

    Because our relationship started when I was 13 y/o, my husbands opinion of women heavily influenced my self image. Around 40 y/o I lost myself; identity and self worth. God has been doing a work in me to define me from His perspective. Just now hubby interrupted my study, expressing ridicule that I would make him wait until I was ready. He has been conditioned to expect me to jump to his demands. Changing expectations is trauma. It creates conflict. As 1Cor 13 says, I’m trying to change in love. That’s hard to do. I need to be confident of my ally, Jesus, and what He says of me. To know He’s my rock/truth to stand upon. And I choose to give Jesus the glory/credit for what He’s doing.
    Your program gives me tools from God for the confidence. God’s Holy Spirit gives me the power to stand firm.

    I left my 27 year marriage 8 months ago and the traumatic effects of the abuse I didn’t realize I was enduring the entire marriage didn’t hit me until 6 months after I left. I’ve been struggling the effects now for the past 3 months and it’s nothing I would wish on anyone. It’s agonizing at times I don’t know how much more I can take. I know God had a perfect plan and am trying to trust Him to work it out.

    20 months ago I lost most of my eyesight and just 2 1/2 weeks. I have gone through a lot of the pain already and I see gods hand in it and how we can use the circumstances. But for now it remains a struggle to say goodbye to my vision. Through is the only way; it will increase my faith, it will increase my authority and it will strengthen my testimony.

I wish someone would explain to me why now almost 3 months after I broke up with the toxic ex and went no contact, I thought I was doing really well but nowadays I keep having dreams about him.. sweet ones, not even nightmares.. its heavy getting up from those kind of dreams

    I like Joel’s defining going through or getting out. I have lived “going through” with a lot of people choosing to “get out”. As Lysa says, most people operate from a desire to “ just get out…”, they want instant relief! Having said this, I have had to accept that many of the people I know are those that want to “get out”. This leaves me living a life where the relationships I want are non-existent! The relationship I have with The Lord is “almost the only relationship” I live with someone actually “going through” with me. I cherish my “going through” relationship with The Lord. I miss the relationships I want, but I accept that they are just non-existent.

      Amen. The brain is an organ just like any other organ. When it is not functioning as it’s meant-through injury or disease we have to pay attention to it. To pay attention to it we have to diagnose it correctly and treat it correctly.
      All that being said ignoring-moving around, jumping over a diseased organ will not make it go away and certainly will not bring it back to optimal health.

    I can relate to all of this. I suffer from emotional trauma, emotional abuse, loss of a loved one who died very young. Family separated, getting sick, some even died ,friends abandoned me, lack of teamwork snd communication on the spot , stepdad not being a good influence , family moving away ,change after change after change. I never had the chance to heal from any of this. Recently I met amazing friends, and mentors thst helped me not focas on those things anymore and focas on healing myself. These obstacles have been going on sense age 9 1/2 and now I’m 26. I have one of your books” it’s not so-posed to be this way” . It’s really amazing. I still have slot of growing and healing to do. I’m not 100% even though I moved away from my mom and stepdad. I feel trapped. Any advice?

      Hello Friend. It has been said that we are in a constant state of grief. Realizing that 1 thing has begun to help me to be free: free to feel, free to be me, free to accept myself, free to counter the enemy's lies. Recent changes in my life have forced me to look at loneliness and "invite God" into it. This has given me hope. I can actually accept that now, whereas, one year ago, I could not do that. I have recently returned to Journalling, too. I see Him answering prayers. I speak truth into Your life, and I am asking God the True Holy Spirit to help you on your journey. In Christian love from one Journey Woman to Another.

  • @rosesponaugle3503
    @rosesponaugle3503 2 года назад +5

    Although l have not been through a divorce, still within a marriage and life itself, as you said, there is often pain and betrayal and loss because of course, we are sinners living in a sinful world. Like you, years ago whenever anyone, including myself, was going through a difficult time, my first prayer would be for deliverance. Of course....right? None of us enjoys suffering. Not that deliverance isn't now a part of my prayer , but l try to make my main focus on how do l glorify God through this and what is God teaching me. I'm learning too that often God doesn't remove the thorn from our sides so that His strength may be made perfect in our weakness. In which case, and l'm sure you've heard this prayed before, maybe prayed it yourself, "Father, if you're not going to change my circumstances, please change my attitude toward my circumstances". He's a good God. "But you, O Lord, are a shield about me, my glory, and the lifter of my head".-Psalm 3:3
    I am so thankful for your ministry. The pain you have gone through and your transparency through it is an example of Joseph's response to his brothers, "What you meant for evil, God used for good". You've used the evil Satan has directed toward you to equip and strengthen others. You are also living out ll Corinthians 1.
    So thank you again for doing your part to build us all up in Christ. 🌿💛✝️

    Thank you so much for doing these. You are speaking right to things I've been walking through over the past 10 years. I feel like there are stages where you revisit the same feelings and thoughts, and that feels so frustrating...almost like "what's wrong with me, why can't I just GET this?" I guess it's like an onion, God is peeling back more layers. I had a loss of marriage, and now loss of relationship and expectations not being realized. Disappointment has been really strong.

      I also encourage you to wait on the Lord. Let Him be your guide. I am in the same place of waiting on the Lord and growing in the Lord. Not accepting to "just divorce and move on." It is very difficult. When others and even my own heart have wanted to skip ahead the Holy Spirit and the consequenses of my actions have always reminded me that it is God's timing that is perfect Not mine. You are right to wait. In the meantime grow in the Lord and His word while you wait, friend.

    Death of a 30 year marriage and the death of my oldest son and moving to a new home all within 3 months of each other. The marriage had been dying for years. I just didn’t want to give up. But my sons death was unexpected. Then the betrayal of my ex husband knowing my sons whereabouts (out of state) for a week before he died and never telling me just compounded everything. Talk about trauma. Not sure I’ll ever recover.
