Please pray for the recovery of our marriage. I ask for God's guidance to help my husband end his affair and return to our 20 yr marriage. I also ask God's help to enable us to restore and build an even better marriage that relects love, care, respect, honesty. I also ask that he help restore our happy loving family and heal the pain of infidelity and separation.

Our marriage is worth restoration and rebuilding. I love and value my husband and family. I am committed to doing what it takes for recovery to be possible. I ask for God's guidance to give me the strength to continue standing for my marriage and family.

Thank you.

I pray that you find your love truly restored and your family reunited.

That your husbands heart will soften and he will see the errors he has made and rededicate himself to unification.

That you both may find forgiveness and peace within your family unit.


I just want to reunite my family and spend the rest of my life making up for the last two years.

Father I pray for this family that you would bring restoration. I am thankful for a wife who wants her husband back despite his flaws. I pray especially for the husband Lord that you would place him under conviction for his action. I ask Lord that you would open his eyes to see the pain he is causing to his family. I pray Lord he could find forgiveness of himself, from You, and from his family. Lord 20yrs is too long to give up so fight for this family. Lord provide the wisdom needed. Lord give the wife strength to stand up to what needs to be done. Allow her to stand firm in you. We thank you Father for listening and for the work You will do in their lives.

We pray these things in the precioy name of Jesus,
Amen

Thank you Askme I sincerely appreciate your kind words and prayers.

Thank you for including assistance for helping my husband find self forgiveness. I know when the affair ends and he faces reality he will struggle with the pain and devastation his actions have caused. Prior to the affair my husband was a good man, a man of principles, values, honesty and integrity. He was a wonderful loving caring father someone I admired, respected and loved it is painful watching his self destruction.

I will continue standing for my marriage and family as they are something I value and believe are worth standing for.
