I'm feeling alone in my walk with Christ,my household is following a UNGODLY example of my husband.All the prayer and kindness I bestow is to no avail.Sometimes I just want to hide away in my room and fall asleep so it all just goes away for a short time.My children show no respect for me what so ever.Can I truly blame them,or was it not because they were taught with a poor teacher for the example.I live for Christ,pray and hope this situation will improve , but I am not sure when that will happen.Today it was good,for a while then came the issues.My husband decides to indulge and in his intoxicated state comes the self pity,resentment,anger,just total onslaught of profanity.LORD GIVE ME PEACE.I am asking for prayers.Thank you to anybody who prays for me.
Hi letti:
Don't give up and don't give in as that would be Satan's want for you. Pray that God be with you to bring your family about to seeing things His way and put down some ground rules.
I don't know why people feel that just because they walk with God they have to put up with the garbage of non-believers including family.
God says to put our house 'in order' and that doesn't mean because you are dying although we die to this world or will all face death but because He made us stewards over all that He has bestowed upon us and if your husband can't/won't step up to the plate well it is time you do.
Tell your husband if life is so bad that all he can do is cry when he is intoxicated then he should do something positive about it when he is sober and if he won't then he should do his crying with his buddies and not bring all his negativity home with him as YOU have a family to raise. Tell your children they best smarten up and towing the line because you will no longer put up with all their negative baggage.
You are a child of the most high God and God did not bring you forth to live under bondage of your spouse and especially not your children but to enjoy His freedom. Ask your children what kind of future they would like to have but be a living example of peace, love, and fruitfulness. Living in a defeated, wounded, subdued walk makes your husbands walk look like the better choice to them.
God says Ye who are heavy burdened come unto me and I shall give you rest; you have not because you ask not; ask and it shall be given; I have come to give you life and to give you life more abundantly.
Get these blessings into your soul and start walking them. Be the glorious light of God to everyone you meet including your family including your spouse.
Be good to them but don't take the garbage lying down. Be a fighter for what is right and good.
My prayers be with you and your family <3
