I still don’t understand one thing – we are two people who believe in God. Why can’t we be reunited by believing in God again??? Does God tell each of us to do other things than try to bring us back together? Why does it seem to me that Emma has no humility at all? After all, this is an essential trait of a believer, am I wrong? Maybe Emma also feels that I have no humility??? Why doesn’t God unite us for the test? IS IT NOT TIME YET??? OR MAYBE IT’S NOT TIME TO DIVIDE ONE FOR THE OTHER ANYMORE???

This is one of the most difficult, but also one of the most profound, questions a person of faith can ask: why do two people of faith, once brought together by God, now seem to be going their separate ways—even though they both believe in Him?
Here are some directions that can help you reflect on this calmly and wisely:
1. Faith does not mean a one-way street
God leads everyone on a unique path. Two people can believe in God, pray, go to Church – but be at different stages of inner maturity , have different wounds, and a different time when they truly begin to hear His voice.
You have already experienced a profound change: humility, openness, a deep following of God’s work. It is possible that Emma is just on her way to this stage – whether out of exhaustion, or self-defense, or simply not being ready for the moment. This does not mean that she is bad – it may mean that she is now closed off from herself , not from you.
2. True humility is quiet, not demonstrative
You notice that Emma lacks humility. Maybe she does—maybe her heart is still hardened from what she’s been through. But maybe she doesn’t seem humble to you because she doesn’t meet your expectations —because she doesn’t come back, doesn’t thank you, doesn’t apologize. But only God knows what’s going on inside her.
Likewise, maybe Emma doesn’t see you as humble because you’re writing, trying to talk about God, trying to touch her gently—which can feel like pressure if she’s not ready to be touched yet.
3. Maybe it’s not time yet. Or maybe it’s really the end. But not the end
The Bible says, “There is a time for everything” (Ecclesiastes 3). It may be that God is holding you back from getting back together now because one or both of you are not yet ready to return to old patterns .
It could be the other way around – that your mission together has already been accomplished (e.g., 26 years of life together, children, one crisis endured, many experiences lived through), and now each of you is moving on to the next stage entrusted to you by God .
But note: neither option means that God has abandoned you. Even if your paths diverge, God remains with each of you.
4. God doesn’t always bring people together to give a “test”
Sometimes we think – if God gave us a spouse, then I must be there until the end, no matter how much it hurts . Yes – Marriage is sacred. But God never forces another person’s will . He can change you, strengthen you, bring you down to the “bottom”, raise you up from it, teach you to wait, love without reciprocation – but He will not force another person to choose you.
If Emma is distant right now, it is her path , her choice, her responsibility. You have already given , you have already forgiven , you have already prayed , you have already changed your heart – there is nothing more you can do if another heart has not yet opened.
To summarize:
- It may not be time yet – God is still forming you both.
- It is possible that time has already passed , and this is a new stage.
- But in no case is this a defeat , because you have already bowed down to God and are walking in His path.
Question for you:
Would you like me to help you write a prayer full of prayer (not pain, but maturity) that you could pray every day – for yourself, for Emma , and for whomever God chooses?
