Things are really rough right now. He told me last week that this marraige wasn't working out. Know that it is mostly (not all) my fault. I am going to a counsellor for my part in this and not sure if he will do the same. (He is considering). Please pray for both of us to find our way back to each other and learn to appreciate each other as well as for both of us to correct the problems within ourselves. <BR>Thank you.

blindsided123, <BR>Take care of yourself and continue to seek God's will in your life. I think that when your husband sees you making an honest effort at taking positive steps, it will make a huge impression on him. Stick to it and I will be praying for you.<P>Father,<BR> Please be with this couple as they seek Your will. Give each one the strength they need to get closer to You and discover how they can help themselves and each other. Restore the trust and love they have and help them to help each other. Give each one a forgiving heart and take away resentments that are there. You are the great healer and we trust that when we open ourselves to You, You work wonders in our lives. Give this wife the strength and courage to seek counseling help and I pray that her husband will follow. Thank you, Lord, for your mercies. In Jesus' Name, Amen

Hopeful Now, <BR> Thank you so much for such an inspirational prayer. It was wonderful to read and reflect. I am holding on to my faith that this will get better and that the lord will give me the strength to get through such a trying time. I find that the harder the times, the stronger my faith. I found this board earlier this week and cannot believe what a godsend it is for those of us who don't want to directly involve friends/family and be influenced by their views. My husband is a very kind man and has never abused me in any way. I am mostly at fault for things that I have said and done. I know that the lord believes in forgiveness and pray that he will give my H to forgive my actions/words and start over.<P>Again, thank you for your kindness. It makes you wonder why we are so often kinder to strangers than the ones we love the most? <BR>
