Sweet Sister, I called just to speak to the Elderman of my Church to ask him what he thinks about your situation. He said if you are in danger, if your life is threatened you are not obligated to stay in your Marriage or with your Husband. That God created Marriage to last but He also does not want you to be abused or mistreated. Your Husband is to love and adore you and treat you as such. Having said that you will do what you feel is best but please know, as I didn't at the time, that you are not going against the will of God if you protect yourself from abuse. I was too abused and partially stayed because I felt that it was the right thing to do by God, so I am telling you that you don't have to and this is from someone I know and trust who is a man of God and the Leader of my Church. I am passing your prayer request along and asking others to pray for you. I pray that The Lord puts a hedge of protection around you, that He blesses and helps you, that He protects you from all evil, abuse and any further mistreatment. I pray that He touches your Husband, removes the enemy from him and whatever is casuing him to act in this way, that He makes him the man He is created to be and that He leads you to doing the right thing. I pray for you, Dear Sister. My heart breaks and bleeds for you. Please know that God has you in the palm of His Hand and He loves you more then you will ever know. Love you dearly and please let us know how you are!!!
