Posted to "Just found out" in the past. H is still seeing OW and says when our finances are taken care of he is leaving - 3-4 months from now, I guess. I am on an emotional roller coaster. Sometimes he says and does things that make me think he is maybe thinking about trying to save our marriage and then he will say something again about moving out. I still love him with all my heart and pray continuously that he will decide not to end the marriage. Your prayers are appreciated and may God bless all of you who are in need and struggling.<P>Thanks,<P>Darlene

Take heart, God is on your side.... He wants your marriage restored probably even more that you do. Keep praying, pray without ceasing. You may have already read them, but if you haven't please read some of the Charlyne Cares articles about praying for your spouse. It's never too late, don't give up. The Lord can do exceedingly more than we could ever hope or imagine..... I truly believe that because He saved my hopelessly doomed marriage.<BR> <A HREF="http://www.rejoiceministries.org/cc/420.html" TARGET=_blank>http://www.rejoiceministries.org/cc/420.html</A> <A HREF="http://www.rejoiceministries.org/cc/421.html" TARGET=_blank>http://www.rejoiceministries.org/cc/421.html</A> <A HREF="http://www.rejoiceministries.org/cc/432.html" TARGET=_blank>http://www.rejoiceministries.org/cc/432.html</A> <P>Lord, thank You for hearing our prayers, our prayers are being answered by You, even though we may not see the evidence. Help us Lord, to wait silently upon You for our expectation is from You. Father, I pray that Your Holy Spirit will pour out conviction upon Darlene's husband, causing him to see his sin, and know the consequences of continuing in sin. Father, please do whatever it takes to bring this man to his knees before You in total repentance. Thank You Lord that You wish none to perish and all to come to redemption. Father, please remind Darlene's husband of the covenant relationship with his wife that he made before You; a covenant that cannot be broken. Instill upon his heart that what God has joined together let no man separate. Thank You Lord for listening to our cries. Bring comfort to Darlene, please Lord, fill her heart with Your joy. In then name of my savior, Jesus Christ, I pray, AMEN.<P>This is from one of Neil Anderson's devotionals:<BR>1 Timothy 1:5,"The goal of our instruction is love from a pure heart and a good conscience and a sincere faith." Divine guidance will never come to those whose primary goal is not first and foremost conforming to the image of God. Keep your eyes focused on Jesus, delight in Him, casting all your cares on Him. He wants to give you the desires of your heart.<BR>

Darlene -<P>You wil be in my prayers. I know exactly what you are going through and sometimes I am still on the same roller coaster. But coming here and through much prayer, I have discovered an inner strength I never knew I had. It can only be from God. May God bring you peace. You are not alone.<P>patti

Thank you so much for your prayers. They are very much appreciated. I felt slightly positive last night and part of this morning and then I sent him an e-mail to extend an invitation to pastor counseling and Church and he declined, saying he was happy with his decision/agenda and would follow with it. The internal burning increased and I am trying not to dwell on his negative reply. He says he is preparing to leave, whether to be with her or be alone - either way. This will @ 4 months down the road. The thought of being on this roller coaster for that long is depressing and don't know if I can do it. I keep praying and please continue to pray for him and that God does His work on my H heart.<P>Thank You,<BR>Darlene
