I Married Her Anyway…

When God Said No…

What’s the hardest decision you’ve ever had to make? Why?

I once asked God a very serious question —
one that would shape the rest of my life…

“Should I marry this person…”

And God answered me immediately…
Clearly…
Without hesitation…

His answer was no…

I just couldn’t believe it at the time…
I wasn’t expecting an answer that fast…
and I wasn’t prepared for it to be no…
It broke my heart to hear it…

I thought I loved this person…
and I begged God
“Please God… please… make this work for me…”

For a while I wrestled with Him over it…
I turned my back on what He was saying…
I went through with it anyway…
I married her anyway…

I actually said to God…
“God I’m so so sorry for not listening…
but I can’t help it… I love her…”

It was an absolute disaster…
a nightmare…
a train wreck…
it almost destroyed me…

It lasted about two years…
when I could no longer stand it…
I turned…
I walked away…
I never looked back…

God knew exactly what He was doing…
He was trying to protect me…
to spare me… the heartache… the pain…
He had a better plan for me…

And I learned a valuable lesson from it all…

Now… when God speaks…
I listen…
I obey…

PS… I didn’t love her…
just thought I did…

  1. Your writing is moving because of its bravery, loia. You open the door to a wound and allow readers to see how fragile human decisions become when feelings and expectations intertwine. The metaphoric imagery you chose deepens the story, revealing the irony between alluring beauty and hidden danger. It makes your message sharper and profoundly human.

    Reading your story, I’m reminded that sometimes a wrong decision isn’t just about ignoring the Word, but also losing contact with the clearer version of oneself. There are moments when the heart wants to be trusted more than the conscience. This perspective, I think, enriches your message: the journey back is not only returning to God, but also returning to the self that once wandered.

    From your imagery and tone, I sensed another subtle meaning: beauty can disguise danger, and God often saves us through “small discomforts” that feel like rejection. You wrote this gently, yet with strength. May your story become a light for those standing at the crossroads of important choices.
