I understand completely. My mother is an addictive gambler also. She tends to spend much needed money on it. Have you spoken to your husband about this?

Hope I really believe that you two need to have a friendly conversation about your life,relationship and spending..try to approach him in a nice way possible about his addiction,don't sound like a villain so he won't get defensive,there are many ways to kill a cat like they said.Communication is the key to every differences.Prayer alone won't work if you won't speak with him about the issue.Tell him your real feelings,above all,trust him if if he is trying to get over IT.Gambling is like a disease,sometimes a victim can heal or not,it takes a lot of love from you and an effort and dedication from him.Above all never give up on PRAYING it works magic & miracles.GOD have ways we can never even imagine.GOD BLESS YOU BOTH.

Praying for the Holy Spirit to convict him mightily in his heart about doing what is right. May the Lover of our souls speak to him and move him to a desire to please God and to love his wife and family as he should.

Praying for you....wisdom, guidance, and for continued love for your husband, who can really try your patience. May he respond to you with love and consideration :).
