If you really want it to work, ask him to keep himself accountable. If he wants your trust, make him earn it. The only way to change some ones behavior is to cnange yours. Don't spy on him or fallow him, make him prove to you he is willing to change.

Jesus I pray you will give my sister in christ wisdom, knowledge, depth and insight to discern what is best, Lord do not let anyone deceive her, reveal the truth to her. Lord give her the words to speak to her husbands heart, for you Jesus know his heart and mind, and know how to reach him.
Take away any oppertunities that would cause her husband to stray, may every time he is away, that he would be reminded of his love for his wife
and his commitment to her. In Jesus Love and In His mighty Name Amen

Praying in Jesus Christ is Lord for all you ask, and for your husband to know the obedience he is called to in Jesus.

Hugs and God bless.

Well first of all pray for Him and no matter how imperfect He may be now, always love Him and just find ways to show Him you love Him and most importantly, be the best friend He needs. I will pray that God gives you direction in this. God bless

Hi

Thanks for your sincere sharing. It must be tough having to live through this challenging ordeal.

Have you ever approach him and ask why he is committing this sin against you and the Lord. Encourage him to speak up. You have the right to know. And if he is unwilling to share and work out this marriage, you have to make a tough decision to seek help from a Christian counselor or your Pastor (who is trained in marriage counseling). Let him know that you are approaching a Pastor for help and answers.

And pray for him. But be very tough when it comes to making bold decisions.

We hold you in our prayers.

Lovejoy, I feel you pain and distress over your situation. I am also dealing with the same issues. I found out that my husband was having long-term affairs and overlapping each other. The pain is so much that is truly feels unbearable at times. I question God so much about why this is happening. God is our comforter. He gives me the strength to keep carrying on as he will to you also.

The book of Hosea 3 talks about Hosea showing love to a woman who has committed adultry. I show my husband love, but it just seems like he wants to stab me in the heart over and over again.

Pray and ask God for the guidance to know what to do. I will pray also for you. I know how you feel. There is no other pain like what you are feeling right now. The instituation of marriage is supposed to be sacred between a couple and when it is defiled in a marriage it is so hard to get past.

I'm here for you, if you need someone to talk to.

Hello lovejoy and confusedwife.
I am so terribly sorry to hear about your situations. I ask Jesus right now for the conviction of your partners hearts and spirit, and the peace that surpasses all understanding for your good selves.
I am also suffering a terrible loss, as my wife of 15 years has left taking my seven-year-old daughter with her. She blames me entirely, but church elders and my psychologist tell me that there are much deeper issues here than my occasional insensitivity. She has also walked away from her faith, so she can pursue divorce.
I know how hard it is deperately love someone and have them let you down so badly.
I pray that you are abundantly blessed, and Christ carries you in his strong right hand whilst he heals you and your relationships.

To AussieDad

Thank you so much for your prayers. I need them and lots of them. I'm so sorry to hear of your situation. I will be praying for you. It's so hard to understand sometimes why things like this happens. I pray that God speak to your wife's heart and bring her back to you. The only thing you can do is just step back, turn it over the God, and let him do the work he needs to do. For her to walk away from her faith I know is a horrible thing for you to deal with as well. She may be away from it now, but its in her heart. She can run from God, you, and everyone else, but the word that is in her heart will convict her.

I pray right now for God to give you peace and to fill your heart with comfort. I pray that God give you understanding, patience, and gentleness. God bless you.

Thank you Confusedwife1.
Something I have found that helps is that if we REALLY humble ourselves at the feet of Jesus, he will give us the strength to get us through. I will admit to not being able to get this right for the longest time. It is a recent addition to my spirit life. Also, pray agressively against the curses and powers that seek to bind you. Our weapons are not the weapons of this world, but they are mightier than we know. It has taken months for me to feel even the slightest peace in my living hell, but Jesus WILL come through for you if you seek him dilligently.
I also had to hand complete control of the situation over to HIM. It is only when we relinquish control over that which is beyond our duty/responsibility that Christ would seem to want to step in.
It felt unnatural for me, but it was at this point that peace started to descend.
Stand on the promises in the word, bind and cast out your enemies and operate entirely out of love to those around you. Purify onerself first, and let God worry about our spouses.
There is no guarantee that it will result the way we seek, but it will bring us into deeper relationship with God. And at the end of the day, that is why we were created in the first place.
Peace, love, patience, consolation and joy I pray for Confusedwife1 & Lovejoy.
May your love of Christ increase, resulting in your latter days greatly exceeding those of your former.

Praying that God heals and restores you to. Marriage is a sacrament. He was present when you got married and He sure is present in your marriage. :)

Hugs,
