I am praying again today for you and your husband.

May Jesus' love and mercy flow over your home today. And may the Lord breathe new strength into you. May He give you a peace that passes all understanding. And a grace that is beyond your ability. Also, that Jesus would just give you an amazing amount of Hope. And clarity of mind today. In His awesome Name. Amen. :)

Love you!

Lambkins,

My heart and prayers go out to you and your husband. I know it is hard. I know what it feels like to have a broken heart... Actually I have one right now. I thought I might share a few things that have been helpful to me.

Remember that God loves you so much. Much more than any person on Earth could ever love you, and what's more, He will never leave you. Put your trust in the Lord and you will not be disappointed.

Next, remember that God won't give you anything you can't handle. He has a purpose for your life. As painful as this separation is, God allowed it to happen. There is a reason, even if it isn't clear. Focus on God and His calling for your life. Ask for His guidance; ask Him to walk with you. Sometimes we are scared of His will... but nevertheless, let it be done.

Finally, Psalm 23 has helped me tremendously. I have it memorized and I recite it often. Meditate prayfully on this passage:

"The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want.
He makes me lay down in green pastures;
He leads me beside still waters;
He restores my soul.
He leads me on the paths of righteousness for His name's sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil, for You are with me.
Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.
You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies,
You anoint my head with oil; my cup runs over.
Surely goodness and mercy will follow me all the days of my life,
And I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever."

You and your husband are in my prayers. God bless.

Lambkins and John..Id like to reiterate this from Starrs previous post.



Ecclesiastes4:9-10

Two are better than one,
because they have a good return for their work:
If one falls down,
His friend can help him up.
But pity the man who falls and has no one to help him up!

Mark 10:8-9

"The two will become one flesh." So they are no longer two, but one. Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate.

Song of Solomon 8:7
Many waters cannot quench love;
rivers cannot wash it away.
If one were to give
all the wealth of his house for love,
it would be utterly scorned.

Colossians 3:17-19
Wives, submit to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord.
Husbands, love your wives and do not be harsh with them.

Isaiah 43:18-19
Forget the former things;
do not dwell on the past.
See, I am doing a new thing!
Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?
I am making a way in the deset and streams in the wasteland.

Always remember God is watching and has it under control if you let Him. Im praying for you all..

Dear sister,

Undoubtedly you know by now that if John is a believer in Christ, has has no freedom to leave, or do anything but honor your marriage. If he's not a believer and choses to leave, let him go. (1 Corinthians 7:15), but if he is a believer, he is bound to you. (1 Corinthians 7:10-11), as we all know God hates divorce (Malachi 2:16), and him leaving, and divorcing you would constitute adultery (Matthew 19:8-9).

So my prayer is the same one I prayed for myself. (with the persons changed obviously...)

Lord,

Speak to the heart of John, and draw him to your will, silence the voice of Satan, and let the voice of you Lord be the only one that is heard. Lord give John no peace in his pursuits, give him no rest in his wickedness and sin. Make every thing he sees and hears Lord be a reminder of you, and of his covenant. Father I ask that you pursue this lost soul, and give him no rest, or favor until he gives in to your will. Lord may this marriage be saved for your glory!
Lord for this wounded sister, I pray for your comfort, and guidance. She is going through a pain too many of us know. I don't know the circumstances exactly Lord, and likely she doesn't either. But Lord, whatever the depth of the pain and anguish this hurt sister is going through, repay her with joy, comfort, and love. Lord if this husband of hers is not a believer, make it obvious to her, and give her the peace she needs to move on. Silence those judgemental voices that will speak out against her in this matter, not knowing the details she will get the stares and comments that run some of us out of your house. Lord keep this sister in a special place where she doesn't even have to turn to you, to have you there. Let your presence surround her through your people, and your spirit.

Lord I pray for the friends and family of this couple. The damage done by this man if he pursues a divorce will extend far beyond just husband and wife, to the parents and in laws if they still live, and brothers, sisters, children, aunts, uncles, cousins, I could go on and on, so many people are wounded by those that give in to the temptation of the evil one, Lord I pray that you cover these people in your grace and comfort, and give them what is needed to end the suffering and pain. In Jesus name,

Amen...

I am totally overwhelmed by all the responses!
I love each and every one of you!
May God shower blessings upon you!

Please come against fear in my life...especially of losing John and being on my own! I have been dependent on this wunnerful man for 25 wonderful years!
I know that God wants me to let him go right now...and wait for his return.
But it is so overwhelming!
I am so thankful to God for placing all you wonderful people into my life.
Please continue to pray for John...he needs God's help and guidance more then ever...satan is doing a real number on him!
Once again Thank you for your prayers!! :hug:

I am so sorry for what you are going through. I too am praying for my marriage to be restored. Lord Almighty please hear the prayers for Lambkins and John, let it be your will for their marriage to be restored, we know it is your will for marriages to not be broken, but something is pulling at John. Please intervene so he may again feel the love that you know he has for Lambkins. Help Lambkins stay strong in faith and in her marriage. Amen
