  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Feel like crying.

Tonight dh and I went to our first counseling session and it was just wierd.
I'm not sure about so many things.
I wish that I was married to a Godly man instead of a worldly man.
I'm just so unhappy with him and our marriage.
I'm still so confused about what he wants and needs.
It just stinks. Why can't he just get it together?:doh:

All I know is that I don't think he loves me anymore. I think I hate him. He couldn't even tell the counselor why he married me. He can't even remember why he married me. What is that? It hurts that he's so bored with me and the only thing that makes him happy is our son.

To top it all off....tomorrow is Valentines Day and I'll probably get nothing because he's forgotten about it. :cry: That hurts most of all....I'm just forgotten about.
I know I'm supposed to love him, but I don't right now.

Please pray for me. I feel as if I have noone.

Hi, I have been in your situation for many years. I have been thru the same things your going thru. I have cried many nights to our Father. PLEASE KEEP PRAYING FOR YOUR HUBBY, inspite of what he say or do. Your the only one who can lead him to Jesus. That's the will of God. My hubby has finally come to Christ, after many, many years of crying and praying. He has a ways to go, but it a beginning. God is with you. Hang in there, no matter what he say or do. God Bless You!

I have been to marital counseling before. It can be painful but it can also be healing. Pray before you go to a session. That satan is hindered, that the counselor is the right one and leads you in the right directions, that yur husband begin to open and cooperate, and whtever need you know you have. Try going to a neutral place or restaurant afterwards. Sometimes going straight home or being silence or angry or hurt in the car can be counter-acted by being in a different environment first.

Be encouraged that he even went! Many men say 'no' so his presence should counter-act his words and attitude. You didn't take him at gunpoint did you? :) Men are taught not to open up so give that time to change.

I know you are hurting and praying but try to focus on yourself. This sounds strange I know but pick one thing even if it's small that directs your mind off your troubles. It could be praying here for others, reading, writing, art, etc. You will be amazed how it will help. You may be feeling hopeless and useless focused on HIS current attitude and perceived perception of you at this time. Remember HIS current 'reality' does NOT have to be YOUR reality. I know it's hard because a husband is the closest thing to you and the person you are most vulnerable to.

Lastly, try not to 'look at your watch' while waiting for a change. Remember the old saying - A watched pot never boils. On top of that counting seconds is neverending. God has a timing on everything. Look UP to God and not around at man. (Especially yours!) When you pray for others and they tell you about an answered prayer you may think - Already! That was fast! For you, probably not for them so think in reverse.

I pray that you and your husband will be able to work through everything, all the old issues be resolved, and your relationship restored anew even better than before.


Dear Father - Thank you for this couple. Please restore, renew, invigorate their passion for each other and for you. along with the counselor, help them to place you at the center of their relationship. If the husband does not know ou, let this be the thing that brings him to you. Strengthen the wife to be wise and glorify you. Thank you for this couple's restoration. In Jesus name, Amen.


Be encouraged! God is there because you invited him! The 'perfect gentleman' always resides and blesses where he is asked!

May the Lord of all comfort guide and keep you and your husband as you travel through this troubled time in your life. May He give your counselor wisdom and compassion, and may He soften both you and your husband so that you can hear one another, and learn to communicate better together. May He rekindle the love that you have for one another, and flame the embers back to flame. May He bless you both, give you godly counsel, and use this time to draw you closer together and closer to Him. And may He touch your sorrow-sick heart and let you know, REALLY KNOW, that you are beloved!!


canticum graduum levavi oculos meos in montes
unde veniet auxilium meum
auxilium meum a Domino factore caeli et terrae


I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills.
From whence cometh my help?
My help cometh from the LORD which made heaven and earth. (Psalm 121)

Almighty Father, let our sister's cries come before You this day. Free her O Lord from the sadness that has entered into her heart, from the darkness of the enemies grasp. Lord God, let her feel Your Arms around her, Your Grace surrounding her and Your Mercy overflowing inside her soul. O Lord, the enemy comes between this man and woman, his lies and his worldly desires filling our brother. Lord, send the enemy away from this marriage, let his grasp flee from the bond that you have made. Lord God, renew the love between this man and woman. Let them once again look at eachother with love, with patience, with strength and goodness.
Lord Father, bless our sister Beth this day. Fill her beyond measure with strength from Your Hand. Let all the goodness you have instore for her overflow this day.
In the Mighty name of Jesus Christ I pray, Amen
:prayer:
