Who You Are Matters
Who You Are Matters:
I want you to know that to one person you are important!!
To understand that, gives you a reason to live and that will give you hope again.
Truth is there are at least two that think you are important: Me and God!
Sometimes others do try to tell you that you're bad or worthless, but they are wrong and often just trying to make themselves look better or keep you "under control. But you are priceless, and not meant to be "controlled" by anyone. Even God gives you free will to choose. Never let another tell you that you are anything less than the beautiful, caring, awesome person that you really are.

There are two things you need to know for sure:
Divorce is not the unforgivable sin and Abuse is NEVER Acceptable!!
Changing Your World
God loves marriage: When
two become one in marriage, their spirits unite. God knows that divorce rips holes
in your spirit when you separate again. BUT HE NEVER intended for you to be a victim or to be
"Punished" by or for your mistakes for the rest of your life. When God forgives, Jesus' blood that was shed for you washes you clean, so if God forgives murderers, prostitutes and all other manner of sin, and lets them go on to have fulfilling lives here on earth, why would He insist on not letting you move forward after abuse?
I am not advocating divorce over simple or stupid stuff. I am only saying that sometimes it is the only and best option. No one has the right to hurt you, verbally or physically, not even if they are Christians.
Yes, It is possible to restore an abusive relationship and create one that makes you both happy and no one is being hurt, but it is hard work and requires both parties be involved. BUT if that is not an option then know that you are not "doomed" to a life of misery, in or out of marriage. Seek God, Seek forgiveness for your part in getting to that point, and Let HIM lead you to the restored life (with or without the mate you had) that He meant for you to have. He is waiting there to wrap you in His (God's) arms and comfort you and help you pick up the pieces and put them back together again.
I know this is controversial but its not hard to understand and I will be happy to explain it more if you want to know and give you scripture to back it up.

God is on your side: Really He is!
God is on your side
God is not a bully, waiting for you to mess up so He can beat you over the head.
He wants to be your friend, your closest companion, to live through you, with you, as you live, day to day.
With Jesus in your heart the commandments become a way of life, not laws.
If you love someone you won't hurt them, lie to them, cheat on them, You will honor them, put them first, desire to spend time with them, put no other before them, want what is best for them and love them always, Just as Jesus loves us and that is all He asks for from you.

Since His greatest Commandment is to Love one another as He loved us, then this way of life should be applied to everyone by everyone.
Scriptures to read
St John 15:12, 3:15-17, Acts 17:28 1 Corinthians 13:34, Matthew 22:39-40
Changing Your World
Love is a choice, we do not
fall into or out of it, it is a matter of deciding to care enough about
another to put their needs before yours, to want the best for them, and
to want to live out their life and yours beside each other. Often we feel as if we "fell" into love, because choosing to love simply is the next natural step, almost an unconscious decision, til one day we suddenly realize that we have decided to love. But it really is a choice, now anytime you make a choice you should weigh the benefits and the cons. Yet all to often we forget to do that in the beginning of the relationship and by the time we do it at the end, we are hooked and lives will be hurt if its wrong. Isn't the one you want to spend the rest of your life with worth you taking the time to make an active choice to be with them and not just blindly step into their life with no clue what you want?
