She has gone to buying jerseys to dress like the OM. She took money that was needed to pay bills to purchase this jesey talking about waiting until next pay day to pay the bills. This is the same behavior he exhibits in his marriage. He has his priorities all messed up like she does. She can't see that he is a boy wanting to be a man.<P>Please pray that the Lord will continue to give me the strength to endure this horrible pain and that it will end soon either by my being with God or elimination of the OM in some form or fashion, or she files for divorce and gets out. Either one is fine right now because I feel like I am being bled dry.<P>------------------<BR>God Bless,<BR>Rob<P><BR>

Our Heavenly Father, <P>You have told us in Your Word, that "Bad company corrupts good character." Because of that truth, Rob has deep concerns and is suffering agonizing pain for the corrupting influence the OM is having on his wife. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, we ask they You eliminate all emotional and physical bonds between Rob's wife and this OM. Father, comfort Rob through this most difficult time. <P>In Christ's name, <P>Amen

Thank you SHA. God gave me more reassurance this morning that I am doing what He wants me to do. I spoke with our pastor last night. He still thinks that I am being hard on her because of where she is. I totally understand where he is coming from since he hasn't really gotten to see the other side of the story. He has only seen what I have to say on everything. He has not confronted her on the details. The other people who konw how she is when it comes to me side with me. Though siding with me is not what I really want. I want her to know the JOY that comes from knowing the Lord in the way she thinks she wants to know OM.<P>Thanks again. We worship a mighty good God.<BR>I feel much better today.<P>------------------<BR>God Bless,<BR>Rob<P><BR>

Thanks, CandiCane. Mondo Hug!!!!<P>God is really busy reaffirming that I am doing what He wants me to do. I still am not getting as much affection as I would like but I am able to see the very little that is there. She over the weekend scared me my waiting around the corner in the dark when she knew I wasn't expecting her. I know when she does this that she is warming up to me. <P>Lord, please continue to make changes in me that she and anyone else may see You first. Because You deserve all the glory, honor, and praise. What others see as my intlelligence, I know comes from You. It is your knowledge that I use. I am merely a sinner who has humbly said:Yes, Lord, lead me, guide me, along the way. Thank you for giving my W to me. It is because of her that I have grown much closer to You and am ejoying the JOY that only comes from knowing You.<P>In Jesus name I pray,<BR>Amen, Amen, and Amen!!!<P>------------------<BR>God Bless,<BR>Rob<P><BR>

Thanks ES!<P>I prayed for you last night also after I got online and read what Hopeful posted. Things appear to be getting better. We talked last night about the OM who I talk to also when he returns my calls. I called him a boy wanting to be a man. I wasn't trying to be vindictive. I was merely describing his behavior as defined by God. She was somewhat receptive. I spoke with my brother-in-law, my W's sister's H and told him right in front of my W that though there are things that I would like to forget, I would still marry her all over again even knowing the pain that I would endure. No, I am not masochistic. I just know beyond a shadow of a doubt that my W is God's gift to me anch I cherish everything that He gives me because it all works towards good for those who love Him. I love Him and want Him to receive all the glory, honor, and praise.<P>------------------<BR>God Bless,<BR>Rob<P><BR>
