I was reading your request and I am saying this could have been my request, with deep concern you must both come to a good understanding of what you want it is sad when you want to be with a person who has no concern on work it out this is your husband and God word say if they choose to go let him but if he stay then thats good but you must keep your self from been angry at him keep your self around postive people and stay in the word no it want be easy but you can win, if i can really write what me and my husband has going thru it will take book to hold it we are so bless to say that all that has happen in our marriage we have can more concern about each other feeling so if i could say to you keep looking to God and know He said no more than we can bare be in courage and our prayers are with you and please the saint win, love PC

what i am learning in my marriage is to be real with my self first what i like may not be what he like we have had some good time and diffently some bad but the good has out way the bad we are both born again christian and love every min. of it, my husband move a little slow than i would like but each day i am asking God to keep me humble i have no energy to start a new relationship with a nother man life is to good and short for that, i am work on this marriage until death due us, he has great heart and it take great work so we must work while it is day because no man can work while it is night
it will take the both and we do understand that, good counsel is good but the Father will guide you better He will not take sides, thanks, PC

I am trying with all I have. Some days I say “Lord, I have nothing left to give.” But somehow I continue and I know that it is only by God's grace that I do. Gods grace is sufficient even when we don't see it or even feel it. Thanks Mark.

Thrhod, so true that it's not easy. Marriage is hard work. Marriage is also heart work. And God is in the business of reviving hearts that have stopped beating in harmony. Focus on God alone!

Keep hanging on, Crystal! Stay together under the same roof. Seek God and watch Him work.

These 5 ways are very good. I have personally focused on number 3; embracing God's perspective. It has brought me a great deal of comfort. In fact, I told two Christian friends just yesterday that I was overjoyed (perhaps a strong, misplaced word) that I was aware God was at work and I was in it. I even said that the work may be for someone else and not me and that brought me pleasure. I do feel that way but it all hurts.
I have struggled to get back into the workforce after outsourcing and downsizing nearly three years ago. This plus several overwhelming events in our lives has almost crippled our marriage. My wife and I have separated and I am living in what was once our family home but now only a house under threat of foreclosure.
I often talk with my wife asking her to look at our covenant and realize that we, together, with God can conquer all. Sounds good but not easy to attain.

I am a firm believer that it is never too late…but if this analogy could be continued…We're sitting at the table about to sign the bankrupcy papers or hanging on to the rope over the cliff with one hand and the other person hanging onto the ankle of the one above. We are about to sign a “legal separation” which will give my husband a year to get his head on straight and realize that marriage is not easy for anyone and you have to work out problems instead of running from them. The factors of our problems are numerous and varied, but at this point the major problem is that he doesn't believe it can be salvaged or that he could “choose” to love me. I'm hanging on until there's nothing left to hold on to.
