Last night my H came home and said he had spoken with the OW on the computer at work and told her he had decided that his own life was too messed up for the emotional baggage that their relationship was adding and he felt he needed to give our marriage a fair shot. He gave me the login to his email account and told me to check it if I wanted because he didn't intend to. He has done all this once before. Please pray that he will have the strength to stay with it this time. Thanks

From all the reading I've done on this site its just like an addiction that our WS's are dealing with. They have to go through withdrawl. I will join with you and pray that "he will have the strength to stay with it sometime". Let us know how things are going.

I'm with you too K. "There be power in numbers" Jesus said that <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" /> Matt. 18:20. And remember, you are your H's champion in prayer. A spouse in prayer is a powerful thing.

Keep us posted.

Love in Christ.

K,

Dear Lord, I pray for this couples marriage and for the renewed resolve of this husband to give his marriage another chance. Give him strength
and endurance to keep with it this time. Break all soul ties with the OW and allow his focus to be on his wife. Give this wife strength and a hope in the future that things will improve. I cover this couple and their children in prayer.
I pray for evidence that both of them can clearly see that they are making progress. In Jesus name, Amen

Yes - I'll pray for you & your H.

I know in my heart that God wants to see marriages work.

Just remember God works in His own way and in His own time.

Hang in there Keli.

Father, Thank You for this breakthrough. Thank You for the long-awaited gift of honesty Kellidiane's H gave her in surrendering the login info and confessing to her that he is tired of OW.

Lord, let the healing work begin and flow. Open Kelli's eyes to how to love H into recovery. Help her to be strong and find forgiveness in her heart, even on the tough days.

Also, work in her H's heart further that he will choose her completely and their M will become a strong beautiful witness to others of what Your healing power can do.

Kelli, this is such awesome news! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />

LW,
It was my first night alone. Very wierd. I didn't sleep very well at all. The trip back from Springfield was not so bad. When I helped him take his things in at the hotel, the other trainee he was sharing a room with was there. A very nice guy who loved the Dallas Cowboys (a biggee for my H) and the guy had a bible out on his bed. I rejoiced that the next couple of days would have a Christian there with him. I stopped and had lunch with my daughter in college just to keep busy. I knew if I went home too early - it would be bad. I have a couple of praise tapes that I played during the 3 hours and when I got home it was time for church. So - I guess I haven't had as much time to stew about anything yet. I am starting to read a book on spiritual warfare called The Battle is the Lord's. I think I am being lulled that things aren't as bad as I think they are because this last couple of weeks have gone well. I don't want to go back to "sleep" because I don't believe it is over yet. That would mean that Satan is giving up and I doubt that will happen any time too soon. The next couple of days will tell how well I do, I guess. I have got to get into a study mode. I am having major difficulty reading the bible at all and I know that is not of God. Anyway - thank you for asking. How are you doing? I don't know alot about your situation because I haven't been in here a really long time and you don't have the info at the end of your messages that others do. I am late for work and even though I don't feel like going, I guess I have to. Have a good week and thank you and others for caring. K

K,

Good to hear from you. I am praying that your H will stick with it this time. If you want to see how I'm doing see my thread under the emotional needs forum. Do you have a thread on any of the other forums? If you do let me know.

Hang in there and I will keep praying for you and H.

I can relate at times it is hard for me read also, but just press in, when i do, i find the time i spent was precious. I am glad things are going good for your m, you are at an ackward point, may i suggest that you try to connect with your spouse and let him know you support him. It's probably ackward and hard for him as well and your confidence, faith and your support will definitely help.

In the almighty name of Jesus I stand against any demonic force that has been assigned to end this marriage and I bind those demonic forces and cast them to the pits of hell in the mighty name of Jesus. In the name of Jesus I pray that your will be done Lord and that you keep his eyes open to your truth and your word and that you Lord got direct his footsteps, his thoughts and take control of his mind. I pray Lord God that you give him an overflowing of your Holy Spirit, that you cleanse him, that you create a pure heart in him, that you transform his mind and give him the mind of Christ and that you flush out of his mind, thoughts, heart anything that is not of you the almighty God. In Jesus name I pray that what God has put together no man can separate and as it says in Job, nobody can thwart the plans of God. Amen.
