					<description><![CDATA[In reply to &lt;a href=&quot;https://simplyblesseddesignz.com/what-does-it-mean-to-be-persecuted-today/#comment-12785&quot;&gt;Jennifer Parks&lt;/a&gt;.

Oh sweet girl, my heart just broke reading this. I am SO sorry — waking up to find your husband of 12 years gone, with no real answers? That&#039;s not just hard, that&#039;s flat out gut-wrenching, and you have every right to feel as hurt and confused as you do.
Only the Lord knows what&#039;s really going on in somebody&#039;s heart. But I do know this — your faith is NOT what broke this marriage, and don&#039;t you let anybody (including the enemy whispering in your ear) convince you otherwise. You got baptized and started growing closer to Jesus, and sometimes that kind of light just exposes what was already cracked.
You are covered in prayer, friend, I promise you that. Praying God wraps you up tight, gives you a peace that doesn&#039;t make a lick of sense given the circumstances, and puts some good people around you — friends, family, your church family, maybe even a good Christian counselor — to help carry you through this hard and confusing time.
Thank you for trusting me with something this personal, that means a lot. Sending you a big ol&#039; hug and so much love, sweet friend. You&#039;re gonna be okay, I just know it. 🙏💛]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[After the craziness that I have been going through and the last couple days being extra tough I needed to come across this. You really don’t know how bad I needed this! My husband of 12 Years who I never argued with and vice versa just up and left when I was sleeping. Like What the heck did I do? I honestly still have no clue. Would I do know is that I am a God loving Christian woman, and he is an unbeliever. So I’m wondering if that could bethe reason? Either way I’m very hurt. I also know that hurt does not come from our Father. I was baptized last March and that’s when things started getting a little wonky with me and my husband, but we still weren’t fighting. Anyhow, I really just needed this andI wanted to thank you. If you wouldn’t mind, could you pray for me? I thank you in advance and I pray that you have a lovely day.]]></description>
