[@momzies93]

This came across my feed today… and I’m grateful to God for that. My husband left me five months ago (adultery), two days after our 32nd anniversary. I am learning to say Goodbye… and seeking God every moment of every day. I pray my adult kids and I will heal. Please pray for me if you see this ❤. Thank you.

[@ashleymariebeauty]

You can also pray for reconciliation because God hates divorce 🙏🏻 I will pray for you!

Same for me but I left him because I realized enough of the lies and betrayal. It is hard, painful but I am gaining peace I have been missing for a long time.

I woke up this morning wanting to react so desperately to a family situation. I knew it wasn’t what I needed to do, so I paused and then came across this video as soon as it posted. So overwhelmed at the goodness of the Lord to speak to me in my pain. Thank you for this teaching and May God bless you greatly.

When I found out my husband was willing to leave me and be with someone else I felt like my world was totally turned upside down. I was in shock and I know without a doubt that jesus carried me through.

[@c007zy]

God sent me this video at the perfect time as I am having to set boundaries with my 33 year old daughter. I am 60 and have taken her verbal abuse for too many years trying to be a good mom and heal out relationship. I am to old to take it anymore and life is too short. I can't change her but I can change me and put my emotional health first. I keep trying to please her because she has my only grandchild who's one and has my heart. I have ran in circles helping her, both financially and physically with very little appreciation. She might take my Granddaughter away from me but I am choosing to lay it at Jesus's feet and have the peace he offers me!!! Freeing

[@ValenceLincoin-ez9wn]

Hello pretty lady 👋

[@mmmclown]

I know your pain. I've tried for years to keep communication open to salvage the relationship. No more. I realized the Father of the prodigal NEVER chased the prodigal. He waited til the prodigal "came to his senses", then the Father ran to him when he saw him coming afar off. ❤️

[@johnholmes5151]

This may sound shallow but can the background music be ditched? Very distracting! Thx

[@Jbird-sx4zk]

I've heard and seen of marriages where there's been Affairs/Adultery, and there's been deep forgiveness and reconciliation and the marriage thrives...but also, you see where people have been cheated on and see that it's not going to work whether they want it to or not, and there is freedom for that person to move on and remarry and thrive with a new husband/wife...but each situation is different, and there's freedom for the offended party to try to stay in that marriage or move out of it. In either situation, God can be glorified, his Mercy, Grace and Forgiveness highlighted. I hope the best for her and her new husband moving forward.

[@janethanson1793]

Yes! Well said.

[@autumngirl96]

All so true!! Many blessings and love through Jesus Christ our Lord! 🙏🤍🕊✨️

[@sarahuber8567]

She did forgive him and they renewed their vows. But afterward his behavior continued without any real change.

[@itsablessingbeinganamerica1401]

Sometimes, people refuses to change even with reconciliation and forgiveness. It's unfortunate for faithful spouse to keep going in a toxic marriage.

[@Dr.Thandi]

We are always called to forgive. Forgiveness takes one person. Reconciliation takes 2. We are not always called to reconciliation. When my husband committed adultery his heart was hardened and he did not want to reconcile. He insisted on a divorce. I had to release him and surrender everything to God.

[@Cheribeas]

My husband of 43 years left me after many affairs throughout our marriage. The affair before this last one our children found out about and confronted him on. He begged for another chance and we both went to individual therapy at first and then some marriage coaching. He really seemed different this time, and for the first time really, I had the marriage I'd always wanted. Then - the man I had forgiven time and time again - nursed through two bouts of cancer and other surgeries - pulled the carpet from under me once again - this time he just "wasn't happy" and didn't want to die "unhappy". He left me and filed for divorce within a week and RAN away not only from me, but our 3 kids and 6 grandkids. He now lives with the other woman in her house in a different city. I was devastated - still am really. I'm amazed to see that I'm not the only one. Thanks to Lysa so much for her transparency.

[@sheriffmomma81]

[@dotsrei]

Thank you for this amazing conversation. I'm from Ukraine, and I'm tired of being scared. I'm tired of the sirens and explosions. I'm tired of my growing anxiety and of my tears. Thank you for the reminder that God is always beside me and my family. That I can trust Him, especially when I notice that He takes care of us and gives my family unbelievable gifts. I'll try to focus on those blessings and keep praying. Be blessed! The interview is so touching and healing

So proud of her. She gave him multiple chances and was so honest and honoring of him throughout the process of talking about what happened, reconciling, renewing vows with her ex…But of course, at the end of the day, it takes two parties to work towards a healthy and godly marriage and I am so proud of her giving it everything so she could release him when it was clear they were not going to be together. Praying for her new marriage and that God can use this new husband to heal areas of her heart that were broken so many times before. ❤

[@DJH97]

Wow. Sounds like my life. The abortion, the breakup of almost a 30 year marriage and right in the middle of that my oldest son passed away. And my ex husband hid the whereabouts of my son from me for days and I didn’t even know he had left town before he died. The heartache of the death and the betrayal was excruciating I couldn’t breathe sometimes. I hung on to faith by a thread. Still healing but I so relate to the anguish you felt. 😔🙏

[@betsyg3304]

[@suzelduzel9847]

God rescued me from my ex-husband - it was not healthy relationship. almost 30 years, too. God waits for us until we are ready (emotionally, physically, financially), and I had to scream out to Him for help. And He was working everything out behind the scenes.

[@amberlorraineOG]

Thank you for this. My marriage is ending, not my choice, and I’m at the screaming for help point. I pray that our marriage is healed, but I also know that God’s will is better whatever the outcome ❤

32:30 there is a difference between walking thru suffering and stewarding your suffering. You have allowed the very broken things that have broken you and you have lifted them up and you allowed God’s love to run thru these broken places to other woman. So true and so beautifully said! Thank you, thank you thanks you

[@Natasha76234]

Listening to this brings back the hurt & truma I also experienced from a broken marriage. The year was also 2013 & I also prayed for reconciliation which never came, eventually a divorce happened. My journey has been one of healing of myself. I'm now ready to find love again. Thanks for sharing.

I would give anything to have even ONE friend I could count on. My husband of 41 years cheated on me, twice, and after I found out about the 2nd affair he left me for the other woman. I have been with him practically my entire life (we met when I was 14 and got married when I was 16). I have never been alone before, and I am terrified and completely devastated. I have two grown daughters that I have been trying to lean on, but now they are pulling away from me because they say they need "boundaries". I am beyond broken. Please pray for me. 🙏

[@colettejoseph76]

If you know the Lord, the reality that He is really living inside of you can become really real to you. I had to learn this and hold hands with Jesus on the inside of me. No one else can make you okay. Look to Him inside of you and ask Him to make Himself real in there and hold hands with Him. Keep your focus on Him in you and not on everyone outside of you. Many blessings and peace to you.

I'm 39 going on 40 and I so desperately need an older person that can speak into my life, that can keep me in check /mentor/guide/advice. I have acquaintances and not close friends that I can't call on in times of need.I don't feel lonely or depressed or anything, but I lack voices of good and honest Godly counsel.I'm praying God to connect me with women that are after His own heart that I can learn and grow from, that we can speak into each other's lives.

If your not going to church ,visit some churches in your area. many churches have women’s ministries, Bible study groups and get involved. God calls us to fellowship with one another and us women really need that. I believe YOU could be the strong woman of God ,mentor ,guide for younger gals ❤ Prayers 🙏

Holy Spirit is a person. Please ask the Holy Spirit to show you. Ask, who are you? Holy are you? Help me, guide me, teach me... once He shows you... surrender yourself if you want to, surrender everything, your wants needs, say you give the Holy Spirit access... complete access. Once you experience Him.. it'll be quite an experience... when His Spirit invades you... not every one will understand. .it'll be disturbing to them. . Stay focused... prayers to you ❤

[@tisha_is_joy]

Lysa has been such a blessing to me as I dealt with a similar situation exacerbated by my husband’s addiction in my marriage of nearly 20 years. Her vulnerability and transparency as a Christian woman living through dysfunction with an unrepentive husband has been so helpful. I tried so hard to save my marriage and my husband, but I couldn’t and trying to save them was literally killing me. And I realized that the marriage I was desperately trying to hold on to as a Christian was actually not honoring God and that’s when I had to set a boundary for myself and finally let go. Praying God continues to bless her.

[@margerymullins7806]

Me too!

[@danilaroche1156]

I've been divorced twice but I have to take accountability because I never went to the Lord about marrying them. It was my lust & idolatry. I adore Lysa but I don't understand her 'exposing' her exe's foibles. His sin to the world. I'm all for authentic. I'm an author as well but I wouldn't name the names of the men who cheated or hurt me. I just don't understand. Maybe he told her it was ok???

[@danilaroche1156]

I really hope and pray Lysa remarries. It's going to be challenging for her though. Being in a relationship will trigger wounds. Even the ones we were CERTAIN were completely healed. It takes time, longer than we care to admit, to heal. Love you Lysa. I don't mean to be mean.

[@danilaroche1156]

Phenomenal interview. Inspiring.

[@danilaroche1156]

Yes, it's disconcerting. My ex-husband did worse things than her spouse. I'm not going to go on KZbin and TV and tell the world. Lysa is very smart. Well spoken, articulate. She doesn't have any joy. Why is that?

Thank you for sharing this! Unfortunately I now know what gaslighting is. My reality altered in an effort to cause me to believe in an illusion. I am so broken right now. My privacy....in my home. In my car. In my work....all manipulated. When I first realized it, I said....well.its ok, bc the eye of God is always on us. This is helping me to accept that. But it's now debilitating in this moment to know that someone(s) are abusing that information for their gain. Someone I loved. My most personal intimate times....on full display to someone who is abusive. God help me. I don't know why this is happening or if it's ever gonna be ok. Please pray for me.

Praise God this is wisdom 🙌 that Lysa has expressed through God. I can totally understand this explanation of a broken heart healing process 🙏. God is speaking through her woman of God 🙏🙌. Take the boundary lesson in me Lord, and make me stronger in your will not my will in Jesus . I am learning that my past is a lesson. Take away everything that has happened to me and restore to the woman I'm supposed to be in body spirit and soul that my ex husband had taken away 💔. Forgive me Lord for my wrong path i took and destroyed because of lack of knowledge from my parents from culture to tradition. Make me a proverbs 31. Even when I admit i have flaws and errors I am not God, but you are my God 🙏 in Jesus Christ I pray to stay grounded in the word of truth and knowing deception is also a lesson to be self aware of my response and reaction to not get triggered by the people that are not living in the same level as myself. Lord i believe you are working around me during times of attack from the enemy 🙏🙌💔

I stopped the video at one point because the music was so loud and high pitched, it was overwhelming to me and I couldn't hear what they were talking about.

Making the decision she did doesn’t influence generations of women to divorce their husbands, but it is to demonstrate a story of love, forgiveness, grace, mercy and letting go when someone wants to live a life apart from God. The Bible teaches us not to continue associating with these kind of people who continue to sin and refuse to repent in 1 Cor 5:11. She has the right to divorce per the Bible because her ex-husband continued in perpetual sin and refuses to stop. Like she said, she was also trying to save herself from drowning and this was the best thing she could do for herself, for women like us who are watching her dealt with a person who continues to sin against her, their children and God. “No more” was the right thing she did to draw that boundary between a person who wants to continue living in sin and a person who wants to live in accordance to the Lord.

[@lamariquita_]

Lisa I feel so connected to your story. I’m going through separation and eventually divorce. I’m having to make those decisions and it’s hard. But God is walking with me. I know He is. I’m so blessed to see what God brought to you through all the pain and heartache.

[@elenamaldonado7304]

Same here. Thank you for sharing

[@marosialvarez8918]

Would love to have heard the whole interview but background music was too much for my sensory sentivity😢

[@bree3]

I also have tried to figure out the why of the betrayal and secrets of my husband (he died before I found out some of his secrets).I was stuck in the hurt. I prayed that God would heal my heart. God showed me I needed to look forward and not back. Not dwell on the past.

[@michaelmontgomery2467]

Finally, real talk. Mostly I hear idealistic Bible verses but no real applications of the Word to the pain and struggles. Thank you so much!!!

[@jacquelineconwell665]

Wow, so true boundaries are important

[@mrsvwilliams2325]

This was so good.

[@eloise-rw3sj]

Hard topic, especially for people dealing with grief.

[@NK-vs3je]

Limited capacity. I feel this. I let my ex drain me, and when I put up a boundary nicely, I was made out to be the bad guy… to be “unreliable” 😔

[@muffincarrol1671]

So good!!!!

[@mercedesciudad9983]

Such a powerful testimony thank you for sharing with all of us.

[@tailynnhinkle]

[@danilaroche1156]

Were you married?

[@lillianmcgrew217]

Amen to this.

[@jacquelineconwell665]

On time thank you for sharing your story🫶🏽

[@nikkistahr7105]

This conversation is sooo needed..im sharing this to all the women I know❤

[@TailsSP]

As much as I love this candid discussion, the music at the end is just too much. It was so overwhelming that I could not concentrate on what was being said. We don’t need the background music for an emotional response. We can do that in our own.

[@chriswitt2596]

My story which has many similar instances. I know that God carried me.

[@natalieruiz9724]

Wow thank you for this video ❤

[@venanciasandin6475]

Oh my goodness this was meant for me ❤️🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@tiarasgirls5475]

We love you!

[@tiffanysnead4635]

I really enjoyed the vulnerability and transparency in this message. It was very enlightening. I do agree with another message that stated the background music can leave some people feeling heavy and discouraged versus encouraged and enlightened.

[@christinapierson8522]

Love you Lysa

[@lindadillard-mn3un]

Amen and amen 🙏🏽 I received it

[@user-qs6yh1ln1k]

Beautiful. Thank you 🙏

[@biblestudieswithdomlaf3310]

You’re my hero Lysa TerKeurst

[@gracewadejones1880]

Thank you for your transparency and the boldness to own your story and express vividly the pain and fight for your truth and the truth we face living an unseen God we’re so deeply in love with, who has a plan for us we never knew would be so close to experiencing hell. This is my story of 37 years of extreme traumatic circumstances so unbelievable. Reality prevails - life still expected with joy, love and adoration. May the peace of God be your mainstay and love be the center of it all.

[@aliciaosorio3072]

I really needed this!!! Im so glad I came upon this!!!❤

[@lindacullison4217]

That was my experience. I suffered for YEARS!
