I would seriously suggest that your daughter seek some Christian counselling, either from a Christian organization or from a Pastor. This is a very hard decision for her to make.

How is her foundation in Christ right now?

We will definately be praying for her, and for strength for the whole family. I also pray that God would guide your daughter daily through the tough decisions that lie ahead and give her peace in her spirit.

As for marrying again - that is not the issue here. I would truly suggest she not get involved again with any man until her heart is healed and right with God. She probably needs to re-submit herself to Christ and be healed of the anger, bitterness and hurt that she feels. And that is between her and God. Remember the lady at the well, that was so surprised that Jesus spoke to her, because she had many husbands. Jesus forgave her, and told her to have peace and live now without sin. Remember that once God forgives, you can start over fresh and live life to the fullest with Christ!

John 4:9-26
9The woman was surprised, for Jews refuse to have anything to do with Samaritans. She said to Jesus, "You are a Jew, and I am a Samaritan woman. Why are you asking me for a drink?"
10Jesus replied, "If you only knew the gift God has for you and who I am, you would ask me, and I would give you living water."
11"But sir, you don't have a rope or a bucket," she said, "and this is a very deep well. Where would you get this living water? 12And besides, are you greater than our ancestor Jacob who gave us this well? How can you offer better water than he and his sons and his cattle enjoyed?"
13Jesus replied, "People soon become thirsty again after drinking this water. 14But the water I give them takes away thirst altogether. It becomes a perpetual spring within them, giving them eternal life."
15"Please, sir," the woman said, "give me some of that water! Then I'll never be thirsty again, and I won't have to come here to haul water."
16"Go and get your husband," Jesus told her.
17"I don't have a husband," the woman replied.
Jesus said, "You're right! You don't have a husband-- 18for you have had five husbands, and you aren't even married to the man you're living with now."
19"Sir," the woman said, "you must be a prophet. 20So tell me, why is it that you Jews insist that Jerusalem is the only place of worship, while we Samaritans claim it is here at Mount Gerizim, where our ancestors worshiped?"
21Jesus replied, "Believe me, the time is coming when it will no longer matter whether you worship the Father here or in Jerusalem. 22You Samaritans know so little about the one you worship, while we Jews know all about him, for salvation comes through the Jews. 23But the time is coming and is already here when true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth. The Father is looking for anyone who will worship him that way. 24For God is Spirit, so those who worship him must worship in spirit and in truth."
25The woman said, "I know the Messiah will come--the one who is called Christ. When he comes, he will explain everything to us."
26Then Jesus told her, "I am the Messiah!"
