Dear Pastor,
My husband doesn't want to work. I have been carrying this family for a long time and taking care of my children. We have been married for 19 years and I have never cheated on him once. I have been faithful to him all these years. He has cheated on me so many times. He has four kids outside during our relationship. I didn't want to face what he was doing because I didn't want my kids to grow up without a father. I kept everything bottled up inside, the hurt and anger until recently I got very sick and I had to stand up to him and let him know that if he doesn't go out and find a job, I want him out of the house. He chose to leave and for the past seven months, I have not got any financial support from him.
Is divorce sinful?
Pastor, I need to know if I divorce him,am I committing a sin? Should I just stay in this relationship? I am so depressed. My kids are very supportive and they have tried to comfort me when I am down. Please, help me make my decision as I really need your help.

Dear F. A.,
Is it that this man cannot find a job or he does not wants to work? Some men do not want to work because their women support them. Others cannot find jobs.
Your husband seemed to have had it easy and when you confronted him, he chose to leave.
When he was with you, he didn't have any money to give to you. Now that he is gone, I do not expect him to have any money to give to you. Pastor
erhaps you should definitely see a lawyer.
Pastor
