Pls pray for for me to be strong enough not to continue with my affair

[Chowder17]

I have been unfaithful to my husband and engaged in an affair for almost a year now. I have tried to end the affair multiple times but am not sucessful as I am sucked right back in...
Both me and the other person have strong feelings for eachother and when I think of completely cutting him out of my life, I feel lonely and depressed. I know I will miss him but I know its not right and I have to end it.

My husband has forgiven me and is so sweet about everything but I dont have any loving or affectionate feelings for him anymore, it was that way even before the affair started. Everyone has told me I have changed and am not the same person since I met this other guy, I know its true. And since then, I feel completely disconnected from GOD and I want to come back to HIM so bad but I also lack the desire to put in the effort needed to do so.

Please pray for me that I am strong enough to end this sinful relationship, that GOD will restore my marraige and family but most of all that GOD brings me back to HIMSELF, and that I will have a faith stronger than I ever had before. A faith so strong backsliding is not an option.

Thank you in advance.

Love is far greater than feelings. Feelings are capricious. Love always perseveres. But we have to make choices.

It's good that you see this relationship is wrong. I am praying that you will end it and save your marriage (with God's help, of course!).

Emotions tend to be very passing.

Praying for your relationship with God and for healing and restoration of your marriage in the name of Jesus Christ. Thank You Lord!

I pray your heart is broken for Christ and He is the glue that mends it, loving Him first and above all will set your path true. I am praying friend.

I wonder if it would help you to read Proverbs 7 when you feel tempation. It is basically written as a warning to young men, but really we all need to heed its advice regardless of gender.

Praying that you will be strengthened in your faith and that your marriage will be renewed. There are so many good books out there about marriage - the one that comes to mind offhand is Cinderella Meets Caveman, or some very similar title, written by a marriage counselor. Very funny at times to read. Helps people learn to communicate, a skill we just don't seem to be born with, and rekindle romance.
