I need help and prayer me and my husband we are moving but we do not now where to yet. We prayed and he stated that God wanted us to move back to our hometown. Okay we was going to live at my mom house because it was only for a short period we was going to be there. Know after telling her we was moving in He tells me that is not where God wants that he wants us to stay here and we already told our children that we was moving and that they was going to start going to a christian school they was happy about that and being close to their grandma's. I can not get my husband to set down and talk with me He preaches with aother preacher and we are working in a town full of drugs and children that cannot go home until 2 or 3 in the morning. I want to be where God wants us not just where I want to be. I have been homeschooling our children. I don't hardly see him because he is doing college online and is in the bedroom on his computer. Or up at the free store helping the other preacher Don't get me wrong I love doing God's work and helping other people find Christ. But how do I get him to set down and actually talk to me. I know the other preacher has lied to us and accused me of things that I have not done. and my husband tells me everytime something happens that he is done being around this preacher. I pray that God will open his eyes and mine along with our hearts. I only want to do what God's will is. My husband tells me I don't spend enough time with him or with God. and that I am depressed because I am usually at home with the kids teaching them. I need help and prayer because I am tired of trying I stay up late praying and asking God to show me and him the way that we need to go. But I feel like I am going no where.

Sounds like you have some marital issues that need to be addressed first. I would encourage you and your husband to seek out Godly council. Us guys sometime try to fix the world while being blinded to the problems in our own home. Be frank with him and don't sugarcoat the problem. He's your husband - you should be able to say anything to him without fear. If you can't talk to him, you said he spends a lot of time on the computer so pour out your heart in an email if you have to. Just communicate. I'll be praying for you.

I agree with what this gentleman posted to you... your issues sound deep. Maybe you need to e-mail him a letter telling him EXACTLY what you are feeling. It's important to do God's work, but marriage is a union that God brings together between two people , not one? Maybe going away to your mom's for a week or two with the kids since you home school will help open his eyes to how important you and the kids are to him... cause it sounds like he is taking you for granted... I've been there. If you don't deal with your marital issues now, tomorrow you will be dealing with a divorce. Have you seeen the DVD "Fireproof"...I think you should watch it and then leave it for him to watch... cause its all about how we let things get in the way of our marriages and it doesn't matter what it is... God can heal this situation , BUT you must BOTH realllllllllllly want it and I mean BOTH! I will be praying for you both. God Bless you and keep your family strong.

Sounds like what i had experienced with my Pastor husband just a few months back, i can identify what you felt Sis. As 88keys said, nothing is more needful at the moment but open and straightforward talk with your husband. But do it in a manner that is gracious and spontaneous, not deliberate and forced. They may feel threatened that way. Timing is the key. Only God's guidance can give you the right timing. Try to arrange a family picnic or a casual, easy-going and fun atmosphere to open up what you felt to him.. I hope I can help more.

With my heart i will pray for you and your precious ones.

I would like to say thank you very much we have talked a little and it is getting better. We have watched Fireproof when it came out on DVD at church and then we bought it. But I am still talking to him and letting see that me and the girls really need him. Because his is the head of the house. I am still praying and so is he and we started praying together at night after the girls are in bed we also have family prayer with our girls before they go to bed.

I have thought about writing him an email with just my feeling for him.

Thank You guy and gals very much you don't know how much I needed your support and advice and prayers.

Heaven Father I ask that you bless and touch each person or family that has prayed for me and my husband. Amen
