A gem that one of our Facebook readers posted on our FB page….
My abuser told me I got my revenge by simply leaving. I could’ve done some bad things on the way out, but I would rather see what God does with it. He did more than I ever could have. :)

The anti-husband was stunned beyond belief when I filed for divorce. I don’t know if he saw it as revenge, but he definitely was blindsided. He thought for sure that I’d be his victim for life. Definitely leave it all in God’s hands. He will deal with the abusers justly.

Yes, take the high road. “Vengeance is mine,” says the Lord.

My ex was totally surprised and even acted hurt when I divorced him even though I moved out with my children beforehand. He thought we were taking some time apart to work on our marriage, eventually coming back together. It actually helped me to leave safely despite the fact I knew I was not going back to him. I don’t think he took it as revenge. It was freedom for me and God could deal with him directly. What they may see as revenge is safety and freedom for us.

My husband told me “why don’t you pack your bags and leave?” so I did. For the 3rd time. He cut me off financially 1 1/2 weeks after I moved into DV shelter. I filed for support via courts. He hired a “Christian” lawyer that specializes in estate planning and finances….not divorce. He states he has evidence of my sickness….Xanax, hospitalization due to being suicidal, relapse in alcohol. He filed for divorce.
I have my own apartment now, the Lord has been incredible. I have a lawyer now since my husband is trying to manipulate me into settling out of court, states that he can’t afford what the courts will make him pay. He is a pharmacist. I have lived four years of gaslighting, deceit, manipulation, verbal and emotional abuse to the point of being suicidal and feeling crazy. I am healing from C-PTSD and he still wants to point the finger at me. there is no repentance or remorse. It’s all about the money….he has fooled everyone, therapists, pastors, my father, friends….but God!! He knows the truth and the truth shall prevail!!
Oh, by the way….moving out of the house I discovered the man is on Xanax himself! I went off my meds after I left! I am free from the anxiety….now he is suffering from anxiety, it is an awful thing to fall into the hands of the Almighty….
