Hi Alumni. God hates divorce because God, as perfect Love, cannot stand what happens leading up to the divorce. He hates the abuse, abandonment, pain, tears, fear, rejection & all the other stuff that makes us fall out of love with each other. He cares about the heart of his children. Therefore, He wants you to be in a safe place, surrounded with love and able to be who He created you to be. Next: Of course you lack trust! Abuse breaks trust & the only thing that will rebuild trust is a person making changes that are evident & time that will prove it is a change not just a ploy to get you back. It sounds to me your husband has rejection issues. Telling you to leave is speaking it into his life. Perhaps he needs to work on his abandonment issues, which I would bet are a big thing behind his abusive gestures. I would recommend the on line class, "Woman Thou Shalt Sunmit" as a good refresher as to the rules of love according the Bible.Hope this helpsDr. Tracy Kemble15:58:28 02/28/08 Thu
