Help me please; I'm so heartbroken!

Help me please; I'm so heartbroken!

I received the following question from Candice (fake name to protect her identity) in suburban Georgia;

I have really been going through a storm lately. My relationship with my boyfriend of 3 and a half years, has been on the rocks and I can't understand why. I've been really prayerful throughout this situation but it is so hard. I love this man with all my heart and I can't understand why this is going on. Today, he came by my house and said that we needed to talk and he informed me that we needed to go our separate ways.

He said that there was no one person to blame and that he still loves and cares for me. He cried and I cried and he said that this was really hard for him to do but he didn't want me to end up hating him further down in our relationship. I don't know what to do. I am so heartbroken. I'm trying to be still and know that God will handle it but it's so hard because I love this man so much. Please advise me of what I need to do.

I really could relate to everything that was said, to encourage "Candice" I'll just like to leave a bit of my personal experience with this beloved lady...
I was in a similar position once in my life...(smile) when I look back at that experience I am pretty amazed...why? Because I never believed I could laugh again or love again, lol...
I still could remember sitting looking into the eyes of the person I once saw as a best friend, a mate, a God sent, one that promised to love till the end, one that wanted the privilege of making me their wife… Hmmm.
But what I heard out of the same mouth that day pierced like a knife in to my heart...I couldn’t believe my ear, when my heart got that message (There is no future for ‘us; It’s not you, it me) the latter being a famous break up line I later learnt…hmmm…I could not hold back the tears...my world was shattered...
BUT GOD.... (SMILE)
I held on to the one person I knew would never let me down...Jesus
I cried to Him on those long sleepless nights...I also asked Him WHY...after weeks of mourning and struggling to understand...the circumstances...one Saturday morning around 5.30am... while prostrated on the ground of my girlfriend’s dining room as everyone slept... I pulled my bible to my side and open it...my eyes landed on Jeremiah 18, (You would not believe I had never seen that scripture before and now it’s one of my favorites) as I read, my question began to be answered… He said to me "Can I not do with you as this Potter?” I was dumb founded as I read and to make things a lot more intense, a song that I could have related to begun to play on the radio... it was sung by "Helen Baylor - The Potter's Hand". After that my prayer changed from demanding answers from God to asking for His power and strength to forgive and to heal (smile). Now three years later and I’m blessed in abundance.
It just goes to show that as we go through circumstance of Pain and Confusion...God always is in Control and just as Donnell and myself came through it...Believe God when He says He will never give you more that you can bare and He'll will come through for you...I’ve reached a placed in God that made me so much more effective and I really thank Him for His sovereign authority in my life. He came through for me and He has promised to come through for you...just trust Him, He will bring you through this; everything will be revealed in His time. Be Encouraged; Be Blessed.
