In reply to Deacon Joan. Thank you for your comment, Deacon Joan. There are many reasons why women return to the abuser, I always pray that they will trust God instead of the empty promises of the abuser, yet the Lord gives a greater grace. All blessings for a day filled with His love, peace and joy.

If you went back to someone who’d already been abusive, this is on you. You need a lot of therapy to see what the attraction is. This is how women lose their kids, or their lives. God has nothing to do with it, you have to do this one yourself. Quickly.

In reply to Alyssa Dideriksen. Dear Alyssa, as you already know, husbands are mandated by God in His Word to love their wives as Christ loves His bride, the church. I am praying that the Lord will give you a good plan for you and your children to leave this abusive man. No one should live in fear and abuse in their homes. I look forward to us talking soon. We are on your side. Chaplain Natalie

This is me! I have done this and I thought that I was doing what was right and pleasing to God. But I know that I have been very wrong and believed that putting my husband in the place that only God can be is not right, it is making my husband an idol. I feared my husband’s rejection when he told me that I didn’t look like certain women that he was attracted to. I feared saying things that were true that would upset him. He has been cornering me in the kitchen and office and raging yelling in my face that I am not a good wife and I need to get out of his house. This last time happened ten days ago and I have been covering up for it in front of my church and my family and anyone else around. But I am very isolated. My children are getting older and they are noticing that there is something wrong. And no one ever comes to our house. I am so ashamed that this is happening. I hate it when he gets so angry and rages out at me and sometimes he comes after me. In the past he has kicked me while I was picking up the laundry in the bathroom and he wouldn’t let me out. He also grabs my by the shoulders sometimes and shakes me while I’m standing up and a couple of times he chased me into our bedroom and jumped on top of me and shook me while he held me pinned down sitting on me.
We were divorced after some of this got out to my family and friends. But a few years later we decided to give it a second chance because of the kids and the good times that we had remembered about the past, there were some. Things have been escalating again and even though he has read the Bible it seems like he is still the same. He knows verses like wives must submit, and You must forgive etc.
I do forgive, every time. But there is only one God. And he sent his only son Jesus, in John 3:16 we read and know, “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.”
