Date Posted: 22:08:47 01/14/08 Mon In reply to: leona 's message, "my husband" on 15:43:07 01/14/08 Mon Dear Sister Leona, It is such a sad story and you are not alone. So many people are in the same situation. We are believing God with you. Here are some suggestions: Regardless of the outcome, keep trusting in the Lord-- God will never leave you, nor forsake you. Let God be the One to bring him back to you; and I would pray for wisdom concerning yourself- so you know what to do. You don't want an unsaved husband back who will mistreat you and insult you again so whatever the Lord is doing, let the Lord do-- He has a plan and just follow His leading, being led by His Spirit. Don't stop praying! God answers prayer! And the Bible tells us that in all things, give thanks! It sounds like your prayers are being answered; your husband asked you to pray for him, he said he wanted to find God. That's a very good sign. Marriage was instituted by God, therefore the devil hates it, and the devil will use anything and anyone to destroy a marriage, including one of those in it, like your husband. Try to realize that your enemy-- the devil --was the real force behind your husband's attacks on you; and continue praying that by the grace of God, your husband will come to realize his need for the Lord Jesus as personal Savior. It is so very important that he understands the Gospel and why Jesus died for us. Here is our link that helps to explain the Gospel to others: http://www.geocities.com/cobblestoneministries/JesusDiedForUS.html As with any broken relationship, forgiveness is so very important. Continue to give everything over to the Lord and anytime a negative memory concerning your husband comes into your mind, say, "Lord, I don't want to be bitter... I give this to You." The Lord is the Healer of broken hearts. Give your burdens over to the Lord. May God's love flow through you so that others will be blessed around you. Since your husband is finally able to hear God calling him, he needs prayer more than ever. The Bible tells us to "pray without ceasing" and that "love covereth all sins." ...Kindness and compassion and let Jesus love others through you. For most of us, it can be very difficult to forgive people who have wronged us and it is only through God's grace that we can do it, for it is He who helps us truly forgive that other person. We knew one sister in Christ with a similar situation who would not live with her unsaved husband again until she knew for sure that he was truly born again. Her husband told us that he was utterly miserable living life on his own and came to realize what he had lost-- his wife and family; and that what he needed was to be saved from his sins. When he finally gave his heart to the Lord, then they were reconciled in marriage and eventually they became youth leaders in the church. God works in His timing, as hearts are humble and yielded before Him. Keep trusting the Lord, Leona, for Jesus never fails! He has you in His hand and He will not let you go! Please keep us posted as to your situation. We will be praying for you and your family! God bless! 2Timothy 1:7 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.
