He convinced her that they are mature now and he is not the same person he was before. He still loved her and she still loved him. This meant moving out of state to go live with his family. They’d have a farm and he’d buy her a horse.
Well, she prayed and asked for god’s direction and he told her yes she should go with his blessing and providence.
Wasn’t out there for but a few months when his family started abusing her. He underwent surgery that took his leg so he could not protect her. With the help of her daughter from yet another state she got out of there with her life. She believes they were planning to kill her. She lost all her possessions, but thanks god she came out alive and that’s what’s important.
Recently, the husband and the other man who was abusing her died and she is sure that was god’s retribution. Shocked, I asked her if she had actually prayed for god to kill them and she said yes.
If god knew the men were bad and wanted to kill them, he could have done so without telling her to go out there and be abused.
This whole think of praying for god’s direction then thanking him for damage control when things go awry is just the theists’ way of justifying acting against their better judgment then refusing to take responsibility for their bad decisions. If Christians knew what effect their testimonies have on me, they would just shut up.
did she get the horse?
