My marriage is almost over. I've been looking to God to find the answers and reasons behind what is going on in my life, trying to find Him to help heal my heart and matters around me. I want so much to have Him in my life to help me deal with whatever the outcome is of my marriage, and hope that he can heal this marriage and bring me to Him. I realize that I need Him in my life regardless of the outcome of my marriage, but I'm trying to find out how to learn and hear God, and what it is He is trying to tell me with all this. I'm also praying that He will find my husband and try to heal him in some way, although I'm sure my husband is reluctant on asking God for the strength. In fact, I'm almost sure he won't. I want and need God in my life now more than ever, and am asking for the prayers of everyone to help me learn how to let Him in and hear His message to me.<BR>Thank you.

You sound just like me. My husband and I both had/have faith. My husband had drifted from the Lord and in doing so I'm sure this contributed to his having an affair and our subsequent filing for divorce. I have to admit that I wasn't worshipping like I should have been. I leaned on my faith and I think that my faith is the only thing that got me through, what I consider to be the hardest thing I've ever been through. What we have with our faith is HOPE. Faith is trusting in what you can't see. You must be patient, the Lord hears your prayers and believe me, he will answer them. Miracles do happen, keep the faith, and keep on praying. I'll be sure to keep you in my prayers. Keep posting here, I've received so much support and you will too.

My heart is with you. Have you asked Christ into your life? If not, please do this, confess your sins to Him, and He will give you peace and comfort like you have never felt before. Please go and talk to your minister or someone in the counseling dept of your church. My H and I are both Christians, however satan got to him, and he lived a very unchristian life. His A started a year ago, and became PA in May. It started on the internet, and he went to Germany to stay with her for five days. If it weren't for my faith and love of God, I'd either be in a mental instution or dead. God has brought me into a relationship with HIm like I've never known before. H is stil out of the house...but our relationship has gotten much better. God does answer prayer. But remember, it's His will not yours. Ask God to reveal His will to you..and do it. Your life will be so much better and peaceful. Learn..learn search the Word. Your in my prayers...<BR>Kathie

Remember, it is not always for us to know or understand the reasons why things in our lives occur. Faith is not something you find, it is something you already have, you just have to learn how to use it. The bible says that if we have faith, only as small as a grain of a mustard seed, then that is enough (Matthew 17:20). Though your husband may never find God, you may be assured that God knows exactly where he is, and where you are. Be stron, put on the whole armor of God, and no weapon formed against you will prosper. Believe it. Sometimes, all you can do is hang on. Remember, that when you have done everything you know to do, the only thing left to do is stand (Ephesians 6:13). You are not alone. God bless....

Vincent took the words directly from my mouth! I accepted Christ into my heart when I was a young teen. I have stumbled and fallen many times. The bruises I have endured are directly proportional to the distance I have placed between me and My Lord. As Christians, we have to remember to stay in the word. Vincent was correct in saying that it is "His Will". That means that what we might want for ourselves is NOT in fact his plan. Pray that God will fill your heart with forgiveness, that he will show you his will and above all...Rejoice in whatever happens. <P>I recall the day my husband lost his job - last fall. He had been layed off once before which put us in financial hardship. This time, I said" Lord, there is reason, I am not to question why, I trust that you have our lives in your hands. Bless us" We have been blessed two fold... and continue to be so. This is just one teeny tiny example of the power he has. <P>Pray that The Lord will work in your H's heart. Release the burden to God. Trust the LORD! <P>I will keep you in my prayers!<P>"Rejoice"
