Hi All,
Our marriage not doing well. I'm irritated w/ husband. We do everything seperate. I'm usually home with baby 24/7, while he goes. Doesn't seem fair. I don't like the way this marriage is going at all. Husband acts like an emotionless zombie. He has changed a lot since marriage 2 yrs ago. Lots of health problems too. Too much to bear. Please pray. Thankyou. Much love to you all. May God answer all of our prayers speedily.
Sent with Love, Ladysheep

Prayer changes things. But first prayer changes US!
I will pray for your M. No one should live in an "existence" like this......
Dear Lord, Please speak to Ladysheep's H, let him know that he is not living up to his responsibility as a H. Father, you did not give us our spouses in order for us to act like "zombies!" You gave us a mate to "complete" us - to show the world what your sacrificial love looks like. Lord Jesus, you asked us to "die to self" as You died for us on the cross. Lord, show us what that kind of selfless love looks like, Holy SPirit, help us to die to self, and live for You, for our mates, and to show a lost and dying world what it is about You that they are missing.
I pray You will bring Fruits of Your Spirit to the LSheep's household....fruits such as peace, joy, love, and patience. Let each of these people know YOu more intimately, Father God.
I ask that You would mold and shape each of us to be more like You, enduring to the end, NO MATTER what we encounter.
Thank You, Lord Jesus, for allowing us to know You, for the privilege of serving and loving You. Amen.

I will pray for you ladysheep and for your marriage. There is a really good book called "The Excellent Wife" by Martha Peace that I read awhile back and it really spoke to me about loving your husband even when he is "unloveable." Also, there are two books I can recommend, if you like reading. One is called "How to Act Right When Your Spouse Acts Wrong" by Leslie Vernick and the other is called "Because I Said Forever" by Deb Kalmbach and Heather Kopp. Both are about being a wife in a difficult or unhappy marriage. <small>[ June 12, 2004, 04:59 AM: Message edited by: LoveMyEx ]</small>

Dear Ladysheep, There was a time not too long ago when my husband was acting very much like yours. I was home with two little ones and expecting the third. I remember feeling trapped and sooo resentful.
Well, things are VERY different now. He is very helpful. Some days he will even call before he leaves work to encourage me to go out and do something for myself when he gets in while he keep the kids!
+++ Lord, just as you turned my husband around, please do a similar work in the heart of Ladysheep's husband. Help him to honor and cherish his wife and be a positive presence in his young child's life. And Lord, please help Ladysheep to persevere and be patient while this transformation takes place. Hold her and her young family close at this trying time. In Jesus' precious name. Amen. +++
Be blessed, Prayer & Patience
