I wanted to thank you for your post and prayers. God gives me the strength I need I sometimes feel I fail God by getting weak. If you don't mind my asking does your husband live with you? You are a wonderful prayer warrior and I thank God for you. Again thank you for all of your help and prayers I do appreciate them.

Brown0674,<P>It is a privledge to pray for someone like yourself. I feel that we all relate to the hurt but sometimes God lays on each of our hearts a special burden. I seem to of been around when you have posted and have felt your pain. We seem to have alot in common with the kids as well. Most of the women have smaller children I believe. If the Lord has used my prayers to encourage you then I am most thankful.<P>Yes, my H is with me. We have been married a long time. The affair was lengthy as well. It has taken this long to begin to even feel like we would make it. I count this book, "The Power of a Praying Wife", as God's tool to begin healing. I don't feel much farther along then many who have experienced discovery in the last year. I understand the longer the affair the longer it takes to get beyond it, I am a testimony to that.<P>Like I said, keep posting and let us all know how you are doing. Hopefully you are reading the book, it really does help. There is great wisdom on this forum and everyone wants to help if possible.<P>Blessings, Taj<BR><P>------------------<BR>"Perfect love casts out fear" I John 4:18

Hi, hope you're feeling better. I've been praying for you this past week, and will continue to do so this week. God bless you, and keep coming here and posting. It will help, really. Please get the book if you don't already have it. It has been such a tremendous inspiration for me, as well as many others. <BR>

Thank you both what a blessing you have been to me. Your wisdom on matters is so helpful. I do appreciate the prayers so much. Any suggestions I also appreciate. I dont know if I should tell my husband that I love him. or just keep my mouth shut?

Brown, if it was me, I'd probably tell him I love him. I've always been pretty open about telling my H how much I love him, even when we were separated. When we started to communicate during our separation, I told him that I had always loved him, and would always love him, as a person and as my child's father. He told me he thought I hated him for what he did. I told him I hated his behavior, but loved him anyway. So, I guess yes, I would say I love you to him.

Brown,<P>In our book POPW there is a statement that "prayer is the ultimate love language". [Linked Image from marriagebuilders.com]<P>We are limited by our words and they need to say so much. Saying I love You means alot and I agree with AW that you should say it if you feel it. The timing of your words is important too. Make sure that your H is really listening to you and hears your heart.<P>Pray, Pray, Pray! Ask God to show your H how much you love him. Maybe God will show him through actions more then words but whatever, "The Power of a Praying Wife" can defeat the plans the enemy has for the demise of marriage.<P>Blessings, Taj <P>------------------<BR>"Perfect love casts out fear" I John 4:18

Taj,<BR>Your right I do tell him I love him. But does he hear me. I do try to show him but I do need to ask God, so my husband will see that I do love him. Thanks again, your one in a million.
