This is such a sensitive topic; but, as you know from the statistics, it is vital that it be addresses. <BR/><BR/>May I speak from experience? As you know, I was divorced over 10 years ago. I have looked back on that time and the years before and found that there was really an 'unequal yoking' which may have been as much to blame as anything. While my ex and I were not close to God at the time we were married, I returned to Him. I thought she had too. But, in retrospect, I'm not sure that she had. <BR/><BR/>It is probably partially my fault for not being a strong leader for her in spiritual matters. We grew apart. I grew closer to God; she did not. Eventually, she chose to chase after a sinful lifestyle (homosexuality) which I could not condone. By then, the damage was done; the relationship and trust were broken and we split.<BR/><BR/>This story is one which you may use, if it will help you to deliver God's message in that regard. I pray for God's blessings as you minister His Word in this matter.<BR/><BR/>George T.Georgehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01375636248098225221noreply@blogger.com
