Dear friend, as someone who was once addicted to porn, as Paul is now, I can relate to the sinful weight he carries on his shoulders. If you have taken it personally, please don't. I was in love at the time that I was addicted (almost three years) and the porn was simply a sick and perverted pastime. Thankfully, God brought me out of it and I now live a life free of the vices I once had. May God have mercy on Paul and bring him to repentance, through Jesus Christ our Lord..

As for your hate, I would try to see him as a victim. I congratulate you for breaking your engagement, but at the same time I ask you to try not to hate him and pray for him instead. Who knows? He could end up leaving porn way back behind him like I did. May God bless you, too, and comfort you at this time of need, through the same Jesus Christ.

Father deliver Paul from the addiction. There is so muc hthat is acceptable in the world Father, that is so readily available that people are losing a sense of right and wrong. Father help him to walk away, turn off the computer, put down the magazine, walk past the clubs. Whatever it takes Lord, show him this is spoiling his life and the life of the woman who trusted him. Lord put a spirit of forgiveness in her heart. Let her move on without malice or hate in her soul, We know that to be forgiven we must forgive. In the name of Jesus. Lord we thank and praise you for your goodness and mercy.

First I am going to pray for you. Fathere God, bring forgiveness into the heart of my Sister in Christ. She says that she has hate in her heart and the only source of such an emotion is from the devil himself. Father, my Sister is hurt and when we get hurt we find that our choices are clear...Fight or Flight. She is wounded and wounded seriously which has backed her away in bewilderment at the audacity that this man, that she loves, could do such a thing. She had absolutely no doubt that her finacee would die for her if need by, BUT, she now questions his understanding of what it means to lay down his life for her. My Sister is a physical self, and emotional self, and and spiritutal self and it is her spiritual and emotional self that she wants her Man to protect in addition to her physical self. His addiction to pornography is exactly that...an addiction. All additctions can be overcome by your Holy Presence Lord and I urge her to consider that the pornography can be stopped in his life by the Grace of our Savior. I know, I was once a captive to the devil's trap of lust and pornography myself. Praise God, that such a weakness no longer has dominion in my life. My Sister, there is a book written my a man named John Eldridge entitled "Wild at Heart" that I recommend to you fiancee and I am confident in our Savior that this book was annointed to provide the guide for men to step away from the trappings of the devil.
Lord, bless this lady. Bring forgiveness into her heart. Her anger, disappointment, frustration are evidence that she has not forgiven him for his transgressions. Lord, have her set his weakness at your feet so that you can do what your will in his life. Father, continue to bless this lady that she may grow stronger in your Word and I pray this in the Name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

Hi, I just wanted to comment on what you've written (as well as let you know I'm praying for you and Paul). Addiction of any kind is never good, but it could be worse than this particular one - he could be addicted to drugs, or alcohol, or gambling. Still, he is addicted, and that is something he needs to get over, and I will pray that he does. Please be aware that even though he looks at other women, that does not mean he loves you any less, if that is part of why you broke it off. Looking at women is a guy thing, it doesn't mean they are going to act on it (yes, some do, but not all) - it's something that most women don't understand, thining if he looks at another woman then he wants to be with her, but that isn't how it is to him. Men are primarily visual, whereas women are primarily verbal (e.g. you would probably rather hear a guy say "I love you" rather than see him naked, if you see what I'm getting at, cos for a guy it'd be the other way around ;-) ). I recommend reading "Men are from Mars, women are from venus" by John Gray - it doesn't talk about porn specifically, but it does talk about how men and women are different in how they think and act, and thus helps understanding between them. Be forgiving and loving, same as how you'd want him to be with you if you were suffering from an addiction. Praying for you both to resolve these issues. Love and light.

I pray that this woman grows from her experiences. I pray that she follows the Lord Christ's example and rejoices in forgiveness. May she resolve her hurt feelings and find the strength to carry on.

Oh Lord. How our hearts as believers are grieved when we hear things like this. I pray that You speak to this dear sisters heart. You know exactly what pain she is experiencing right now. You and You alone can send her the perfect comfort at this time. I pray for her fiancee, that if he knows You personally that he cries out in desparation for You, Lord, at the loss of his beautiful fiancee. I pray that if he doesn't know You, that through this crisis You draw him into a saving knowledge of you. Please soften hearts and bring reconciliation and recovery here Lord, according to whatever Your perfect will is. In Jesus mighty name. Amen!
