3 months ago h said "i'm not in love with you anymore" this marriage is over" and proceded to move out. (20 years - 6 kids under8) The Holy Spirit kept me from panic and changed me into a new person.<BR>I found help with steve and h listened for awhile. he is currently struggling with the decision to move forward in reconciliation. I'm sure he is not convinced the new me is here to stay. you all are praying for God to guide his decision please don't stop.<P>last night i told him there must be something in between I don't love you anymore and i love you.<P>this morning he woke me up and said he loves me more than brocoli and apples. I ventured farther and said how about your car(cost more than our house) - he said yes he could always get another car but not another me. I had to keep going of course(why do we do that?) i said what about your new house - he is still thinking about that one. <BR>we've come a long way in three months - i know Jesus has a hand on my husband and is guiding him back home. please keep up your prayers to put a hedge of protection around his mind and decisions.

Be patient! You have come along way. Remember that the longest journey starts with one small step. It sounds as if your husband is scared. Help him through this period. Convince him that the "new" you is for real by being patient, kind and loving. May God bless your heart and his with a strong sense of commitment to each other so that your lives together may be fruitful. I am praying for your contiued progress toward reconciliation and for your children.

God is so good. I was convicted of being tooooooo needy and i went a whole day without calling. HE called me that nite and said he missed me . the next morning he joined us at church for the first time since he left. <BR>2 nites later he called to see if he could stay over. he wanted to get his car covered before the rain and pick up the older car. Whatever it takes Lord.<BR>I walk by faith and not by site or what i hear!<BR>thanks for your prayers.<BR>

Teddy,<P>Thank you for your praise report. I too am trusting God to <BR>restore my marriage. I pray my husband would say he misses me.I believe he does but he will not saying anything about caring for me. God has changed me so much and he is showing me changes in my situation all the time. Things have gotten much better between us but, he will not say anything positive about us. I see things but no words. Than you again for sharing what God has done for you.<BR>gentle
