My wife and I have been married 10 years and she left taking our kids with her. This is the third time she has left but the first time she has talked about divorce.
She has demonized me to her family and her family would pretty much like to see her divorce me.
She started having an emotional affair with another guy before she left. I took her out recently and told her I would like to know in 30 days what she wanted to do. She got mad and hit me with a restraining order, now I cannot talk to her or the kids.
Without going into all the particulars I have a really big decision to make soon because I have been forced into a corner. I need God's guidance more than ever. I need prayer for our marriage to be restored to it's rightful place before God and prayer against the evil forces that wish to tear us apart.
Thank you

Thank you.

The emotions involved in something like this can be overwhelming. Certain places I cannot go, places I've taken the kids in the past. It triggers panic attacks and depression. I feel bad, I feel I'm not trusting God.
I get on here and ask for prayer, she gets online and the phone and talks to this guy. She prays and asks God why He doesn't answer her prayers. Yet it seems to me with what she is doing her prayers are just bouncing off the ceiling. It is a sad situation, I miss my kids.

I prayed that the Lords will would be done in or marriage. Heart pain really sucks and when something ends it can make you bitter and angry and resentful so don't forget to give all of that crap to the Lord and realize that everything happens for a reason. Sadly we cannot make someone stay with us or love us or us them. It takes two willing to try. I wish you the best sir.

You, your wife, and especially the children are in my prayers.

I'm sorry for the reason you found us,
but I am glad you're here.

May the Word of the Lord go forth, for it will never return empty. ♥

I am sorry, I don't want to be mean, but where were you when she got emotionally attached to this other man? Even now as you are unhappy about her talking to him, do you try to talk to her as much and show her you can offer her more than that other man?

Indeed I know I am not perfect. I know I have let God down. I am not trying place blame, both my wife and I have fallen short of the mark. Indeed if anyone is to blame let it be me, I was supposed to put God first then my wife. I did not always do this. I cannot talk to her now because of the restraining order, but she had said before she still loved me.

I just can't imagine the pain of all this. :(

I have you in my prayer notebook (old age makes me forgetful, so I write things down ;) ).
It sounds like you understand you can only walk with God for yourself.
Your wife has her own walk, and you can't control it, or what she does.

But we can pray!
doing so right now... ♥

Thank you.

I try to lay the pain at the feet of Jesus. It is a constant battle, it is hard.
I have tried to control the situation to some extent which has only made matters worse.
I know I must turn it over to the lord.

It seems to me that my wife just doesn't find me exciting anymore, I am older, stable and it seems like she wants something new.

Nothing wrong with a notebook, I have my own and use it quite frequently.
Thank you for your prayers.

Praying for you both! Keep seeking God's wisdom and guidance. Pray really hard before talking to your wife.

Praying for you...peace and calmness and a listening ear for God's voice.
