please pray with me

[gman]

I am a Christian who is in recovery (drug & alcohol issues)…recently I’ve discovered that I have a vast and armor clad network of co dependent behaviors and habits. I now realize that I am a double minded man, unstable in my ways, a people pleaser of the worst kind…seeking to pleasing anyone who comes my way even if it means betraying the next person. My marriage need so, so, so much help. I know it all starts with me.



On top of all of this...I relapsed on drugs back in December 03 and again with alcohol in Feb 04. I am married and my marriage relationship has suffered because of these two things. First and foremost, I need change in my attitudes and ways of doing things and relate to people. But I also realize that my wife needs a cleansing and healing in her heart due to the betrayal and lies that I have shown her.



I cannot blame her for not trusting me and not feeling the same way about me as she did before. Most of this depends on me acting and doing things differently...pleasing God rather than whatever person is in front of me at the time. Some depends on whether or not God can reach into my wife's heart and soften her to the point that we can come together in love and trust once again. Please Please pray for us...I love her very much...she has stopped trusting God and stopped going to Church with me...we are for all purposes separated, living in the same house...please pray that God would make her heart more tolerant, encouraging and her attitude less harsh. And then please pray for me that God would restore me with His integrity and competency…and give, grow and maintain a desire and eagerness within me to do the things necessary to throw off these dysfunctional habits for holy, healing and God pleasing habits.

Dear gman, I'm so pleased that you are at least relizing , that it takes two to make a marriage work! And that you are trying so despartly to make it work... God Bless you ..

I can tell you first hand that its not easy living with a husband that, always puts other peoples needs first and formost, before his own family. Before anyone can make a marriage work they have to understand that it takes to to make it work, not one! It takes alot of time, giving and having patience withone another! It takes alot of Love, but most of all, its giving up all that you are to be what God wants you to be! That goes for husband and wife! After reading your posting letter here, I see that you have experience things in your life that , you are seeking help for! I am also proud taht you are seeking help. God is , happier than I am, by the way. that you are relizing that you do not need this to be a better person and that you are willing to go that extra mile to make yourself an better person! You are very smart as everyone can see, and God has blessed you with so much in your life. God is standing in your presence and wants you to know that He's with you all the way! When you have given up on him, he has never given up on you! And as proof of that, believe and have faith in what God is about to do!! Trust upon him and give God all that is of yourself! Even when push comes to shove, keep drawing closer to thee.. for he's with you always. God is ready to restore you, and your happiness. But you have to wait upon His will to be done! There is still much work here to be done! 1cortntians 7:40 plz go and read this and keep in mind that you are man of your house hold through Jesus Christ. Have faith and believe and keep God first always in your life, In Jesus name I pray, amen

gman -- everything you said, rings true in my life. Except that I lost my wife as a result of my "indulgences".

Am praying with you, and for you, that the scenario I experienced, does not repeat itself in your life.

God Bless, and may she see you are really trying.

Guess I should say "AMEN" here. That is my prayer for you.
