Please Pray

I ask all who read this to pray for my marriage!! I have been with my husband for 29 years and he left me 3 weeks ago. Says he loves me and misses me but can't live with me b/c when angry I bring up the past, can be verbally abusive and try to control what he does. My husband on the other hand, puts everything and everyone before me, especially his work and customers. He is now renting a room from a female customer. I do believe this is all that is going on but none the less, it is inappropriate. We have spent an hour here and there together this last week and he says that he wants to work on how we interact with each other. However, I always have to be the one suggesting we meet. Most of the time, he tells me that he is too busy with work to see me right now. I love my husband and want to honor my committment to him and the Lord. I am working on changing the way I think and act. However, I am so afraid that the longer my husband is away, the easier it will be for him to stay away. We have had a very rough marriage and always made it through, but I'm afraid this time will be different. Please pray that John will come home!! God bless you for caring!!!

May God heal and restore your marriage, and use it to bring you and your husband closer together, and closer to Him.

Let me encourage you to seek counseling as a part of the healing process.

It sounds like you both want to work things out, even him. You might have to compromise for a while to work things out in the end. I know as a man, many times I put my job (which has many social obligations with clients and what not) ahead of my loved ones.... but its not really like that. You see, I would not feel I contributed enough if I didn't keep my earnings up, I want to be able to provide for my family and not have them worry about certain things. So sometimes that means I have to focus on work more than them, but I am doing it JUST FOR THEM.

For a guy this can be a tricky situation, and I'm not trying to justify myself or your husband, only explain how he might be thinking.

I'm praying for you both, and know that sometimes the most challenging relationships are the most rewarding.

Praying for you dear sister. Hang in there. As a woman with a painful past, I know how it can seep into the present and make a perfectly good present into a misery. Please don't get me wrong, but sometimes we even without intending to, can be responsible for hurting ourselves and others. I also struggle with control issues because of my past but God is my healer and my ever present help. Look to his word on being a wife who pleases God. I sincerely pray God will restore your marriage with John. And counseling is an excellent suggestion as given by Restoretheriver.

Do PM me if you would like to. I will continue to pray for you.
