Please help with your prayers and advice.<BR>My husband is coming back from vacation tomorrow. He was presumably with the OW. He isn't hiding much since he told me because he considers us separated but just living together so we don't crush our daughter.<BR>I want him to leave her and come home with his heart but he says he hasn't loved me for 10 years.<BR>I don't know how to behave towards him when I first see him. I don't want him to think I agree that we're not separated yet I don't want to push him away. I'm afraid I'm going to cry. I need to attract him but I don't know how. Please pray to the Holy Spirit to guide me tomorrow. Thank you.

Dear Trying,<P>I will be praying for you and your husband. Please don't worry about what your husband says. I know this is hard.I have trouble with this part myself. All say the same thing<BR>,I don't love you anymore or "I love you but, I am not in love with you," or " I don't think God wanted us together."<BR>Just remember these are all lies from Satan. He has taken your husband captive. The evil one comes to divide and conquer. Don't fall for his lies. Look to the Lord in everything. I had a hard time understanding what to say or do when it came to my husband. I cried our to the Lord and He sent me to this web site <A HREF="http://www.restorem.org." TARGET=_blank>www.restorem.org.</A> God really spoke to me thru the resources I found here. I have seen many changes since I started trusting Gods word and will to restore my marriage. <BR>In Him,<BR>gentle

My prayers I gladly offer you. My advice is simple, turn it over to the Lord. In his time, all this shall fall into place in his time, not ours. You have been through so much, my heart breaks for you. I pray that the Lord will fill your heart with a sense of peace and contentment. Your Heavenly Father loves you so much, no matter how much you are hurting, he is hurting worse. Be strong, and when you feel weak, pray harder. God will never leave you or foresake you. As Gentle said, these are all Satan's lies. Don't listen. Believe that small still voice in your heart. That is where the truth is. Trust that God will show you the way. The pathway is lit. May God help you to see that which, for everyone, is sometimes so hard to see. You are in my prayers..

Trying--- You have given such lovely prayers to me. I have not the words to tell you what that has meant. I want to do the same for you so here is what I'm going to do. I'm printing the prayer from Bridge out and I will use it as mine for you. Gentle has given such great advise and words I need to hear also. I will pray for you, your pain touches me and I know that the Lord will take care of you.<P>------------------<BR>Marry

May peace be restored to all your hearts. This is a terrible battle we are in, but we are assured victory. Remember this when you are weak. I am hurting too. Sometimes it seems that tragedy only befalls those who are believers. This is, of course, the price of the path we have chosen, but dear friends in Christ, the unspeakable wonders of the reward! Never forget to praise God, in every situation, no matter how difficult it is. This is our triumph! The sadness is only of this world. Look forward to the day when we all know true peace. Till then let's support and love each other, and never forget who it is that we are. The world is watching us ladies. We are the only church that some people will ever get. May God touch each of you with a special strength and passion today. God bless each of you.
