Hi, I am new to Christian Chat and would really like some prayer. My life is all messed up right now :( I have been with my husband for 12 years since I was 17 years old, and we got married 3 years ago. After being married for a year we decided to have a baby. My daughter is now 17 months old, and I just found out about 6-7 weeks ago that my husband had been cheated on me for 6 months. I found out randomly as I wasn't suspecting anything when I saw an inappropriate text message. When I confronted him he admitted everything. Having a child had really changed our relationship as we didn't have much time for each other and because he worked so much I felt overwhelmed being at home all the time and having sole responsibility for our daughter. We have been off and on since I found out. I have been willing to forgive him from the beginning, but the problem is he says he doesn't know if I can make him happy?? We also have had quite a few arguements, and our last one just over a week ago got physical and that is when I told him it had to be over. He just finally left tonight and I am still really confused. I don't understand how after all he has done that I still love him and am willing to forgive him, if he would just show remorse and a desire to change and be a better man for his family. Please pray for me to know what is the right thing to do and to give me peace with the decision that I make. Thanks

Victoria, I am sorry to see you so unhappy. I can tell that you love your husband deeply and just want things to be better. Turn it over to Christ. You will find the answerd you seek there. You need him right now more then ever. Reach out to him. He will take you through it. If you could only get your husband to reach out to him too. That's the unhappyness that he dosen't think you can give him, nobady can. Only Christ can. Remember what Jesus said. Come unto me all ye who are heavy laden and I will give you rest. My yoke is easy and my burden is light. I pray for you and your husband.
May the Lord guide you and be with you always. God bless

Victoria,

Sorry to here about what your going through.
You are right when you say not spending time with each other caused this...
The other women gave him attention and approval.

If you want to take steps to restore your marriage.
Take responsibility for your share of the unfaithfulness.
( Not giving him your time.)

Be the one to appollogize first.
Then tell him how much he means to you, with out being too emotional.
Men hate cry babies, but love to be needed.

Whenever your around him, focus on the things you love about him.
That will show up in your attitude toward him.
If you have forgiven him...don't bring up the affair or other woman again.
You will just drive him back to her.

Smile, Smile and smile...that is what he gets from her.
If you are negative every time he sees you, and she is positive.
Who is he going to give his time to.
If he starts giving you more attention...
(She will become upset and not as sweet.)
Showing your husband the grass is not always greener on the otherside.
Unless we have the spirit of Jesus...us women are too emotional, whine and complain.

1 Peter 3:4 & 5
Instead, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God's sight.
For this is the way the holy women of the past who put their hope in God used to make themselves beautiful. They were submissive to their own husbands,

If you have family or a friend you can take your child to next time he comes over,
do it so you can give him all your attention.
You both should go to counseling too.

I will be pray for your family.
In His Love, Shekaniah
