Subject: About getting over the guilt

You do deserve love and it is good to be married to someone who could be a spiritual leader in your household. However, if you are still married (even though you are separated) you are committing the sin of adultry. If you don't have divorce papers in your hand you are still tied to your husband. That is why you feel guilty, because a Christian has a conscience. They know right from wrong and can't ignore when they're wrong (though some sure try!) If you and this other man share something for real then he should be willing to not see you anymore until you are divorced. If he is truly the one God intended for you he should not mind the wait. He would know that it is well worth it. You have to be certain that the lack of love from your unsaved husband doesn't start to drag you down with him and cause you to act as the unsaved do. You know what the word says about adultry. So don't ignore the word and proclaim that you are a Christian in the same breath. Pray for your husband. God can turn anyone around and change their heart. You have to have faith.
