I have asked my husband to leave because he cannot give up seeing the OW. He loves me and said to me that Christ is in him and that he envies people who are confident that God speaks to them. He asked how I knew that God want us to be married. I told him that I felt that God meant for us to be together. This isn't the first time that he has cheated on me and the Lord brought him back to me and I know the Lord will bring him back to me again but I can't go on letting him see this OW and pretend that it is okay can I? Please help me to know that I am doing the right thing. I don't know if he will leave but he slept on the couch last night after we had a dicussion where he actually talked to me and not just sat there. What else can I do?<BR>Elia

I think you are being wise to separate while H is in sin with the other woman. You have taken the first step of Matt. 18 confronting a brother. If he continues to see her perhaps the next step of gathering 2-3 others to witness the confronting so that he can see how he is in sin would be appropriate. He is now questioning and doubts do not come from God. You have set an appropriate boundary for yourself, asking him to leave so that you will not sin by inappropriate responses, sinning in anger, etc. There are consequences in life for choices we make. That he feels the consequence for the choice he has made with this OW is not out of line. Keeping you in prayer.

Please go to Restorem.org before you make any kind of decisions you will regret. God can and will turn any situation around. There are prayers to pray so your husband's relationship will end. God does like to work on us first. If you have any questions. I'd be glad to help you. Get the book and workbook and do not let husband see it. No man likes to think they're being manipulated even if it is through prayer. Be careful of what you say. Go to God with your problems. My marriage has turned around and affair ended with woman. We are becoming friends and actually getting to like each other
