I need to ask all of you out there to pray for me to give me the strength to get through what is going to be the hardest time of my life. To make a long story short H cheated on me came back said he wanted me we worked on it for 1 week he left went back to her came back to me said he wanted me and we were fine for 1 week and the same thing is happening again and everytime he says he don't know what he wants. I have threatened to leave before and I never have only last night I did and I left the kids with him. I asked him to look me in the eye and tell me it was over or take off his wedding ring something to give me a sign it is over and it is what he wants but he can't do it. Is he palying with me or what I am getting to the point of leaving for good but I love him so much we have been married for 10.5 years and together for 14 so I have alot to throw away. Your prayers and any advice will be greatly appreciated.

Shell Bell,<BR>Please read everything on the site, including Basic Concepts. It wouldn't hurt to post over in the infidelity sections of the forum. <BR>Yes, you are going to need help from the Lord God to get through this tough time in your lives, so I will pray for you.<P>Lord Heavenly Father, <BR>It is so painful when we have been betrayed by our loved ones, especially our spouses. Father, I know they are human, and have fallen from the ideal you created. Lord, I pray that Shell Bell will be given a clean heart, and will continue to love her husband during his infidelity. Father, I pray that you would give her wisdom, and support for this journey in recovery. In Jesus Name, Amen.

Yes, I agree with trustntruth. We are here for you for support and encouragement. Read as much as you can of the principles on the MB website. They really work, and greatly increase your chances of surviving this crisis and saving your marraige. <P>Go to the Just FOund Out forum. THere is some great welcome material there. <P>There are many of us here going through similar siatuations. My H left all of a sudden 12 weeks ago, then had an A, then came home to "work on the marriage" for 3 weeks, then moved out anyway. I still trust that God will save my marriage.<P>He can save yours too. Don't leave. THere is no rush. Pray and read the materials here.<P>Father, give our sister shellbell strength, courage, energy, patience, and insight. She is hurting right now - fill her with your comfort and peace. Lord, touch her H with wisdom and guide him to Your truth. He is confused right now, and is believing the lies of the enemy. Give him clarity of mind, and help him to see your love and spirit flowing through shellbell.<P>------------------<BR>Faith1<P>"Then Jesus answered, 'Woman, you have great faith! Your request is granted.'"<BR>Matt 15:28

Hi Shellbell,<P>Your husband is so unreliable right now because he's "under the influence". I know it is painful - sometimes I feel like the snakes are biting me at my ankles - but you can't take anything he says seriously right now. He is in a big fog and doesn't know what's up and what's down. He'll hit bottom one of these days and then figure it out, but he needs your prayers and your unconditional love.<P>Lord, please bless Shellbell in a special way today. Grant her the grace to desire to stand for her marriage. Help her to find the support she needs here and in the rest of her life. I ask this through Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.<P>
