I’m asking for prayer for my marriage. 8 months ago we almost signed divorce papers. God stopped us. Now we are fighting for our marriage against the enemy who wants to destroy what God instituted. We are in a marriage restoration group. But we are finding that we have no communication skills. My husband either withdraws or becomes angry when I try and ask him to study God’s word to help us have the mind of Christ. I myself get angry with him and have to repent. I need to remember that salvation is an individual process. But I feel like I can’t trust him. We have a covenant with God. That is what marriage is. Now all I can do is pray for him and pray that I don’t make things worse by wanting to fight for our marriage. Please pray for us. I want us to walk before God in love, grace and unity. I’m not perfect and I know my husband isn’t either, but his lack of work for our marriage is hurting me deeply. I bring it all before God. I’ve stopped being Holy Spirit Jr. I don’t know what more to do. We get encouragement from our group leaders and we get told what we are doing wrong. Most of the time I’m the one who gets blamed. I’m called bitter, unforgiving, full of anger. I have prayed so many sleepless nights that it’s effecting my health. No matter how much I give my burdens to the lord, I keep failing. At times I want to give up. But God speaks to me in my prayer time and gives me hope and forgiveness. Please pray for me and us. I’m feeling like a failure. Unworthy. But God knows my heart. He calls me the apple of his eye. He loves me unconditionally. Why can’t I get past 43 years worth of pain and different types of abuse? Please pray down heaven with me. Thank you and may God bless you for your prayers for us.
