I have made a decision and I believe this is what God wants. I was wrong to jump and I hope that you guys will keep me in your prayers... I am actually ok, but Zak is not.

Please pray for him spiritually and that God will heal his pain

Wow, I'm sorry for the pain involved, but I know God will take care of you both and help Zak... perhaps it will be a strengthening experience, somehow.

Keeping you in my prayers.

Help me understand.

Did you guys break up completely? If not, why would Zak not be willing to go through an extensive dating process to confirm marriage is right for you two as a couple?

Sometimes it is better to take it slow teach. Good move on your part.

I found out some of his belief systems that are completely wacko and I cannot marry someone who I would not be yoked to.

I commend you for looking beyond his attractiveness to deeper more important matters and making your descion on those factors.

God will honor that, I believe.

Oh hon, that's gotta hurt, but it's the right thing. I am glad you found out now. Please God, help our sister to be strong and stand her ground. Protect her from the lies of the enemy, and help her to wait for the man you have for her. I ask for Your sake, Lord.

Teach,

I don't know you at all, but you are displaying maturity and wisdom that I don't see a lot of now days.

I will be praying for you. You made the right decision. God has a man somewhere who is praying for you and doesn't even know you. He is asking God to protect you and keep you, and that is what God is doing right now!

Don't settle for second best!

I know you guys would like to know more, but that is as much as I want to say right now. Maybe some other time, but not now.

thanks guys for all your support. I really feel strong right now and I know it is because so many people are praying for me!

Wendy, we are proud of you. I know how difficult that must have been. We love you so much. It is better done now than after you married. Things would have gotten worse. We love you.

That is a difficult decision to make, but I like everyone else am proud you made it.

I can't say the same for myself...it took God breaking me and my last girlfriend up before I finally realized she wasn't for me. That caused a lot of pain on my part.

For you, fortunately, you recognized it before something bad happened. Praise God for his guidance and I'll continue to pray he guides you through.
