Coping With Heartbreak

[Fearless]

Hello everyone, new here, and I'll start off by apologizing for diving right into my problems, but I could use some comforting comments and advice from fellow believers.

I recently broke up with the only woman I've ever really loved, and it's tearing me apart. I feel depressed, sick, alone, and worst of all, I have no one to confide in; I come from a small town, my parents are divorced and my two best friends are in the military and it's not often that I get to really talk with them.

So here I am, hoping for some advice from those who have been in similar situations. I'm trying to use my relationship with God, tell myself that he must have a different plan for me, but to be honest I've felt distant from Him lately.

Thanks for listening.

Welcome to TalkJesus, Fearless. I've been married 42 years, but, for all but the most recent years, there were serious problems that created a gap between my wife and myself, a gap caused by baggage that she and I each brought to the relationship. I got saved in 1983, she in 1997. Change came quickly in me but slowly in her. We had nothing in common for a long time and my life was miserable. However, God blessed me by putting me in a Spirit-filled church where they loved me into spiritual wholeness and my life changed.

P.M. me with your city and state. I may be able to help you and it would be my honor to do so.

Welcome Fearless.

Many come here seeking answers to their problems, none any more unsettling than yours.
Other than your relationship with God, which should come first, none can be more devastating than a broken relationship and, my heart goes out to you.

One of my favorite verses is: "We know that in everything God works for good with those who love Him, who are called to His purpose"

Romans 8:28​

If you are truly, "Born-Again", your feeling of seperation is of your doing and nothing from God; remember, He said that he would NEVER leave you no matter what has happened.

You do have Him to confide in.
It wouldn't matter if you are happily married with a bunch of beatiful children, it would still be the same, make Him first and always confide in Him with everything in your life.

Stay obedient and steadfastly in His word, daily if possible and, His light will shine brighter and brighter, blotting out any darkness in your life.

I pray that your current relationship is reconcilled, with God as the foundation, or you find your true soulmate in life.

42 years is quite an accomplishment, I'm glad things got better and that you were led to such a church.

And I'd appreciate the help, thanks Ed. (if you didn't get the PM let me know, I'm not sure it sent)

Thank you Joe. I'm doing my best to keep a strong faith. And you're right, I do have Him to confide in, I'll continue to do so and pray that all of these bad feelings are eased.

Thanks again you two, just knowing there are others willing to help is a big help itself.
