Bible Verses For Broken Heart/Break Up?

I broke up with my girlfriend after two and a half years today and It would be fair to say I am heart-broken by the scenario and from what I hear, she is also.

We had issues, and I got saved by the Lord in January having been with her for all that time. Me becoming a Christian and her being a non-Christian did lead to a few issues. I was still in love with her, and had no intention of splitting up with her. When I became Christian, little things I never noticed before, I started to notice, and it made me uncomfortable (like swearing, music in the car which was blasphemous, using the Lord's name in vien, her will to have sex and perform sexual acts, and most of all her desire to have a baby).

However I didn't say anything about these things, and I did perform sexual acts (oral) with her, and I let her play her music because I didn't want to try and control her at all. I was in love after all. But for about a month now we've been argueing a lot, and I've been making so much effort to be nice to her but she keeps snapping over little things. She's been frustrated at not being able to get a job and she is up late some nights and drinks so much coffee so she has mood swings and it gets taken out on me really. And she keeps saying its over, then makes me upset, then maybe three days later says "I'll give you another chance" (as if its my fault?) then she snaps at me, and the same over and over again but I know she doesn't mean it. She's done it for about a month now, and there was a stage where I was extremly depressed for about three-five days over it then she spoke again, and guess what, she's had a go at me yet again and tells me its over. So I'm tired of her messing about with my feelings, and I've deleted her number, deleted her MSN, deleted her off my facebook and really just deleted her off everything I could contact her with.

And to be honest, I've been having doubts about us anyway due to the Christian/Non-Christian issue, and I feel as if God has been telling me this isn't whats best for me, and I have felt compelled to preach the Gospel and I am planning on a missionary to Africa with my brother next Summer so I feel that maybe God wants me to take an alternate path in my life and maybe preaching the Gospel is what His plan is for me.

Would be fair to say I'm heart-broken, so any Bible verses which could help me? And any spiritual advice from other Christians?

Thanks.

    I honestly don't think you are heart broken. You made the same decision I made two years ago for the same reason. I felt like I had a knife in my chest for about six weeks, and I made a few mistakes after. But you can not even imagine what God has in store for you. And it's nothing against your x girlfriend. It's just life. Thank you for saying YES to God. Thank you for making a diffilcult decision that will only make your life better. If you are to be with another woman, she will have your same heart, your same passion and respect and worship for God. It's painful but your ex sounds a bit emotional abusive. My ex husband did that kind of stuff too. God bless you so much young man. You have a beautiful heart. This was so touching to read. God bless you.

    I am a Christian and I broke up with a girl when I was around 19 yrs old and ended up getting past her and finding another girl, getting married, having kids, etc. and being thankful that I broke up with the first girl.

    I am going to step out on a limb and tell you that I believe that you are going to get past the hurt and you will find someone else who is better.

    Check out Romans 8:28

    Friend, put the bible down, it's just a book, there is no power in the scriptures. Go to Jesus, and invite him into your life as your LORD, and he will come. He said he and his father would come and live with you, and he will reveal himself to you, if you keep his words. If you truly have become obedient from the heart, invite him in and ask him to reveal himself to you. You will literally meet Jesus. It's not what you expect, but then again, Jesus, nor his father, are ever expected..............Jesus Bless You

    Psalm 34:18

    The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit.

    The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit,

    A broken and a contrite heart—

    These, O God, You will not despise. Psalm 51.17

    Cast your cares upon the Lord, for he cares about you. 1 Peter 5.7

    Come unto me, ye who are weary and overburdened, and I

    will give you rest. Matthew 11.28

    Seek God and His Righteousness and all these things shall be added unto you. Matthew 6.33

    No weapon that is formed against you shall prosper.

    I came that you may have and enjoy life and have it in abundance,

    until it overflows. John 10.10

    For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace. 1 Corinthians 14.33

    In time of trouble . . . He shall set me upon a rock. Psalm 27.5

    Your Father knoweth what things you have need of before you

    ask Him. Matthew 6.8

    Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own

    understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him and He

    shall direct your paths. Proverbs 3.5-6

    I will never fail you or forsake you. Hebrews 13.5

    Wait on the Lord, be of good courage, and he shall strengthen

    thine heart. Wait, I say on the Lord. Psalm 27.14

    Love is patient.

    Love is kind.

    It does not envy.

    It does not boast.

    It is not proud.

    It is not rude.

    It is not self-seeking.

    It is not easily angered.

    It keeps no record of wrong doing.

    It does not delight in evil,

    but rejoices in the truth.

    It always protects, trusts,

    hopes, perseveres. (1 Corinthians 13)

    Isaiah 53:4-5

    Surely He has borne our griefs And carried our sorrows; Yet we esteemed Him stricken, Smitten by God, and afflicted. But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; The chastisement for our peace was upon Him, And by His stripes we are healed.

    Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord and has made the

    Lord his hope and confidence. - Jeremiah 17:7

    Psalm 23. When I was a Christian I used to think about it whenever bad stuff happened.

    In any adverse situation I have learned to ask myself this simple question...DO I LOVE GOD? The answer is a very confident YES! Now that I have resolved that question I can faithfully embrace this from the Bible and count on it with every fiber of my being...

    Romans 8:28-30

    And we know that ALL THINGS work together for good to those who LOVE GOD, to those who are the called according to His purpose.For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren. NKJV

    In better translations it actually says..."GOD WORKS ALL THINGS TOGETHER FOR GOOD TO THEM THAT LOVE GOD..."

    So, clearly, we can walk confidently knowing that our loving Father is ALLOWING whatever adversity is needed to conform us to be more Christ-like. In your specific situation it may be that God is developing PATIENCE in you through this break up. Or it may be that He is developing your ability to TRUST Him when things look bad. He has been working these out in my life through unwanted divorce and other undesirable situations. But I know, looking back on all of it, it has developed something positive in my character. So it's much easier for me to now face troubles because I am confident God is allowing them for the purpose of building a more Christ-like Christian out of me. Read the book of James for more details on this. My heart goes out to you, friend. I will mention you in my prayers!
