Dear Rob, my heart aches to hear of your trouble and suffering, i will be praying daily for you and you will be in my thoughts. Right now I would like to get to a deeper issue, the reason your losing your faith. the BIBle talks of two converts, True and false. my Hope is that after this messagew you will be able to tell which one applies to you. their are two groups. here is an illustration to help you understand. two men are seated on a Plane, the flight attended walked upo to the first man and gave him an parachute and told him it would improve his Flight. not long into the flight, his seat becomes unconfortable as he tries to lean back with his parachute. in not to long the flight gets so uncomfortable that he takes off the parachute, every one is laughing at him, he is embarrased and he is angry at the person who gave him the parachute. As far as the first passenger is concenred, he will never put one of those parachutes on again. Now to the second passenger, the second passenger is given a parachute and told that he would have to Jump 3,000 feet from the plane. The second passenger puts on the parachute and clings to it tightly, The flight does become uncomfortable, he even spills his coffe in his lap, but he dosent get mad and throw off the parachute. the second passenger knows the parachute is the only thing that wil save his Life, he knows that it would be better to be uncomfortable than face certain death if he tries to jump without the parachute on. whats my point? many people put on Jesus christ because they think he will give them a perfect peacful life without any hardships and that jesus will give them a Better flight. This person tries out the savior, and when death comes and there is uncertain future, they throw off the Lord Jesus like the first passenger threw off the parachute. they become angry and confused and see no use for Jesus.
Now, heres the second Convert. The second convert has seen Gods law (Ten Commandments) he has seen that he has sinned aginst God by breaking his Law a multitude of times and realizes that he is headed tward certain destruction. he realizes that if God gives him the justice he deserves, he will end up in hell. Then the Gospel makes sense, The second convert has broken Gods Law and realizes he deserves justice, and when he hears the good news of Jesus christ suffereing and dying for his sins, he repents and puts his faith and trust in Jesus fully. he neevr will forsake Jesus, because he didnt come to Jesus because he wanted an improved flight, he came to Jesus because he knows one day he will have to jump through the Door of death and Jesus is the only Hope of salvation.
which one are you? why did you come to Jesus?
I would like to explain the biblical gospel to you.
Do you consider yourself to be a good person?
Have you ever lied (even once--fibs, white lies, etc.)? Ever stolen (anything--the value is irrelevant)? Jesus said, "Whoever looks upon a woman to lust after her, has committed adultery already with her in his heart." Have you ever looked with lust? If you have said "Yes" to these three questions, by your own admission, you are a lying, thieving, adulterer at heart; Have you ever hated someone? the BIble makes very clear that he who hates his brother is a Murder in Gods eyes. If God judges you by this standard would you be innocent or guilty? Listen to your conscience, you know you will be guilty. the BIble says that the person who has transgresses the Commandments is guilty of sinning against a Holy God. The penalty for your sin is Death and Hell. but there is good news, God has done something for you so you can be forgiven. He sent His Son to take our punishment: "God commended His love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." He was bruised for our iniquities. Jesus then rose from the dead and defeated death.
Your own so-called “goodness” can’t get you into heaven any more than mine could. Jesus is the only way to Heaven. He is the "Door," the only "mediator." There is salvation in no other name, so if you havent, Please Repent (turn from sin) and put your full faith and trust in Jesus as Lord and savior. if you will do this God will forgive you and you will be soundly saved. you wonteverlose faith because you will be clingign to Jesus as a Parachute, the only thing that will save you from sure destruction when you Jump thru the door of death.
God Bless

Psalm 94:19
When doubts filled my mind,your comfort gave me renewed hope and cheer.
We, as Christians, can look to God for comfort, even when things seem to be flipped upside down. Don't worry, you are not the only one who suffers. You've only joined the ranks. Not only are modern people facing challenges, ancient ones did to. David and other psalmists also suffered, and wrote Psalms about it.
Psalm 119:82
My eyes are straining to see your promises come true.When will you comfort me?
Psalm 23:4
Even when I walkthrough the darkest valley, I will not be afraid,for you are close beside me.Your rod and your staff protect and comfort me.
Psalm 69:20
Their insults have broken my heart,and I am in despair.If only one person would show some pity;if only one would turn and comfort me.
Psalm 69:3
I am exhausted from crying for help;my throat is parched.My eyes are swollen with weeping,waiting for my God to help me.
Psalm 44:26
Rise up! Help us!Ransom us because of your unfailing love.
Psalm 33:18
But the Lord watches over those who fear him,those who rely on his unfailing love.
Psalm 37:5
Commit everything you do to the Lord.Trust him, and he will help you.
Psalm 38:22
Come quickly to help me,O Lord my savior.
The Psalms alone are full of rich encouragement. Take some time out, grab a Bible, read and pray some Psalms. Go to church. I hope this helps, I'll pray for you, and God bless!

First of all, God didn't bring you all together because if He did, you'd still be together. The word says "What God has joined together, let no man put asunder"....Face it, you two brought yourselves together as many people do. Also, you have to know that as a believer, you're going to have trials and tribulations. You're not suppose to think it strange that you do. Who are you/I/we that we can't have anything negative to happen to us in life. Now is not the time to see a psychic...that's a large part of the problem. Pray to God, tell Him to help your unbelief. Look to Him for all things. All these things on earth are temporary anyway. There are no marriages in heaven. You can exist outside of another human being, but You need Christ. God loves you...and He's waiting on you to give your life back to Him.

Whatever you do, do NOT hurt yourself. I feel for you. My parents divorced when I was young. I never had any counseling and took my anger out on my stepfather. If it wasn't for my Mom's second marriage, I wouldn't have two awesome brothers whom I love very much. I have never really understood God's big plan and why bad things happen. Maybe you are meant to spend the rest of your life with another woman and she will need you more than you need your ex. I would recommend talking to someone at your church or a counselor about the pain you are feeling.

[65:3] And will provide for him whence he never expected. Anyone who trusts in GOD, He suffices him. GOD's commands are done. GOD has decreed for everything its fate.
God will provide you with something better. This is a test, trust God so that he can bestow his blessing upon you. Keep your chin up, smile, there are better days ahead. PS; here is a website that will help you.

No one can do that. Or are you just willing to believe anything anyone else says to you?
You have to find your own truth. No one can find it for you.
