  • 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

Hi gals! Well, sorry I was MIA, was sick last week and SUPER busy at work this week.

A little update, the hubby and I decided to work things out a second time. It's been about a week so far. He's a little more affectionate, and I don't push for any sort of spiritual anything, but he hasn't brought it up. I know these things can't be rushed and I am being as patient as I can.

We changed a few other things, I am letting him manage the finances and it seems to stress him out alot less, even though I managed them fine. At least he can see what is going on and feel in control of them. I think that helps.

I have been trying to be more... not obedient, but have a serving attitude. It's not easy to bite my tongue and do for him or agree, and there are alot of times I feel like a doormat still. Not easy, not seeing alot of changes or results, but do see a small attitude change.

Trying to remain positive, and keep praying and reading his word. :) I am just hoping that things keep getting better and don't fall back into the same old things.

Thanks ladies, your prayers and encouragement have really really helped, and the Lord has lifted my spirits this week quite a bit. :) Not necessarily feeling happier per se, more content at at peace letting him handle things. :)

*hugs* to you all!!

Praise the Lord! :bow:

That's great news Amber. I know having a submissive attitude is difficult, especially when our husbands are not saved. They see things from a different perspective, that's for sure. But God will honor hour attitude and heart. He knows you desire to glorify Him. Just be patient (I'm saying that as much to myself as to you!) :preach: .

God bless you as you continue to seek His will and bring Him glory! :amen:
