According to Bible Dictionary, the divine ideal of marriage
is clearly a long bond that unites husband and wife in a "one flesh"
relationship (Gen 2:24; Matt 19:5) The marriage union, in fact, is considered a
HOLY condition founded by The Most High
and is not to be dissolved at the will of human beings (Matt 19:6)
For this reason, the SEPARATION OF This BOND displeases The Most High and poses a serious threat to
the social order. We see evidence of this separation and singleness, now, which, seemingly affects the
African-American family, which are led, mostly, by women, in fatherless homes.
(Is 3:12 )
The Book of Malachi 2:15-16 states like this: "...let
none deal treacherously with the wife of his youth. For the LORD God of Israel
says He hates divorce..." Mal 2:15-16)
But, in America, viewed as modern-day Babylon, loves a messy
divorce. The messier the merrier. For, she highlights them on shows like
Divorce Court while celebrating and laughing at the infidelities, which
destroys them on shows like Cheaters. (Prov 6:32)
The Law of Moses, however, allowed a man to divorce his wife when she found "no favor in his eyes." because he has found some uncleanness in her (Deu 24:1) In other words, the single reason for divorce was "immortality" or illicit sexual intercourse.
For, such union violates the sacred "oneness"
intended by The Most High when he united Adam & Eve in the first marriage
relationship (Gen 2:18-25) This, of course, is metaphysical language.
In analyzing all of this dysfunction, we all know that there
are no perfect marriages. Regardless, of what Meghan Markle and Prince
Harry, pretend to display on television.
Plus, if a relationship becomes toxic, where one feels "unloved, unheard,
and unimportant" as well as manipulated, minimized, abused, or mistreated,
it is definitely time for one to separate or walk away. (Source:T.Hill)
Especially, if there is no spiritual counseling or
therapeutic intervention taking place to address the problems occurring within
this sacred bond. (Prov 11:14)
With all this in mind, DE-TOXing from a poisonous
relationship can still be hard because one may have developed a TRAUMA BOND
with their mate along with a sense of FINANCIAL DEPENDENCY and CO-DEPENDENCY in
the process of trying to make the marriage work.
Plus, one may also have developed a mentality of being in love, of being married, having a big fabulous wedding, or simply having a husband, whether the person is physically or verbally abusive or unfaithful.
This mentality combined with the psychological difficulties
of learning the "new" roles attached with marriage can be very
overwhelming.
Especially, for young brides, who find themselves after
having a baby-trying to balance being a mother, lover, wife, and employer,
while finding very little time for themselves.
As a result, many, during this transition, as a form of self-sabotage, find themselves feeling inadequate, and unhappy after dealing with bouts of postpartum depression, burnout, and unattractiveness.
Especially, with the additional of extra pounds gained
during pregnancy. This, of course, is not an excuse for infidelity.
For, young men, who may be emotionally immature, may feel
unloved, sexually frustrated, economically stressed out, and psychologically
trapped, which leads many of them to
commit adultery during this time of new birth and challenges.(1 Tim 5:8)
But, when a relationship is toxic, all of these issues can
intensify levels of dissatisfaction. Especially, when one is constantly being
scapegoated, mistreated, disappointed, or abused while holding on to the
FANASTY of marital bliss.
If the level of toxicity has reached this point, there
shouldn't be any options, whether a person should seek separation.
Why? Because, at this point, one should be in FLIGHT or
FIGHT mode. Meaning, they are either going to
HOLD ON and FIGHT for their marriage or relationship, FORGIVING ONE'S
PAST transgression, ()Mark 11:25) overlooking the negativity, which may damage
their mental health, while living in constant fear of having their heart
continuously broken. (Ps 51:17)
Or, they will have to utilize their wisdom (Col 4:5-6) to
FLEE (Ps 143:9) without having GUILT,
shame, self-doubt, depression, and anxiety, despite the negative judgment,
rumors, and accusations, regardless of
the evidence of the situation from family members, who desire for them to stay
together at all cost.
Why? Because, in some cases, WALKING AWAY from A TOXIC RELATIONSHIP will give back one's independence, freedom, happiness, and peace of mind, allowing them to BE BORN AGAIN.
For, the mind knows what the heart desires. (Ps: 37:4)
But, during this time of uncertainty, one can process their
decision through journaling, blogging,
writing expressive poetry, meditating, and PRAYING (James 5:16)
