My Come to Jesus Moment: Sex and Marriage

When sexual infidelity is crossed the sacred bond of marriage is Jeopardized. Not only does sexual infidelity hurts a couple’s relationship, but it can cause pain and problems for an entire family.
Though god has established boundaries within marriages to seek sexual satisfaction, he is not a killjoy. In fact he created sex to be enjoyed between a husband and wife. He never intended for marriages to become lifeless and dull. If a couple keeps romance alive in their marriage, the temptation to look for someone else to meet their needs will be much less appealing.
I come to see why my ex-spouse and I are divorced. Trust and believe when they say, if god is not the head of your house hold, the devil will use it as a playground. YES ALLLLLLLLLLL Marriages have problems, but continuous lies, cheating and MORE lies does NOT make you loyal. It makes you stupid and blind. Trust me I know. I been that women and have been in a situation where I am watching how I could have STILL been that women IF I did not leave.
During my marriage my ex-husband was finding himself and was selfish to bring me along rather than leave me alone. It was to the point I refuse to leave because I INVESTED so much of me into him. After watching War Room I noticed just in that 2 hour span, where I went wrong. I was so busy trying to change him I lost me. It was not MY JOB to change him, it was god's job. So I laugh because, K. Michelle said it best, "You can't raise NO MAN". They say when you look for it you would find it…well I sure did. I found out about each and every girl he was dealing with or trying to deal with. YET I STAYED. The lies, text, mental abuse, sex only when he wanted and the insensitivity to how I felt grew deep inside and caused insecurities. People I knew called me weak for staying but marriage meant that much too me! Through it all I still tried to work it out. Even after realizing we got married for ALL the wrong reason. After feeling helpless and stuck I decided to go to counseling, which started my journey to re-find me and my happiness. For months I ask to separate to see if what we had was even real, because I grew tired. It took him some time to get on my level and respect how I felt, but he did.
After reading this I truly do not blame him for his actions. Though I have told him this over and over again, he was just not into me, because he was still seeking who he wanted to be. While looking for something made it hard to appreciate what was in front of him. During our separation I give him credit, because he tried. However I grew tired of the same thing, crying for the same thing and wanting for the same thing. I was broken, so before I break something that was already broken I asked for a divorce. Our marriage had become lifeless and dull because the boundaries of marriage were broken. We became comfortable in our routine, however NOTHING was changing. What I come to realize is that marriage is supposed to build us as one, not break us down. Once it is completely broken it takes more than your will to fix it, it takes god's will.
Can the bondage be fixed? After getting baptized I look back and wondered if it could have. However that was not the plan. I also would not be the women I am today. To answer the question, with god and IF BOTH parties put their alllllllllllllllllll into making it work then yes it can. However if one is still stuck in their ways, not willing, STILL have a hidden agenda or Loves someone else. The devil will continue to play and prey....and GUESS WHAT god will let it happen, because through the holy spirit he gives sooooooooooooooooo many signs for you to see. You better believe though god WILL NEVER leave you, he will eventually wash his hands of that situation you choose to stay in and let it be what YOU want. Even though he has proven this is NOT what he wants for you.
I share this because some people need to understand the true value of marriage, especially when it comes to sex and infidelity. I will do it again, this time I will do it god's way.
