Thanks marilyn, I know trials make my faith stronger...noting is waisted. I know I am being prayed for because I feel the Lords peace in a situation that has no peace. Please pray for my husband also. I know this will pass...I just can't wait to move on to brighter days...

I love the verses but this is a favorite of mine!

"And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose. " Romans 8:28

This is a horrible situation, but I know I am being prayed for because I feel God's peace even in the storm. I know the Lord will care for me no matter what happens. I feel like I am on a roller coaster and the ups and downs are every day! Thanks for the prayer... it really helps. One thing I can say is the Lord really draws you close to him in the trials!!! You guys are great thanks so much!

Romans 8:28 is beautiful, Brooke. You'll make it thru this situation and one day look back and realize that everything happens for a reason. We may not understand the why at the time, but HE knows the reasons and works everything for your good.

Praying for you.

I am seeing the Lord work through everything. I am praying for the Lords wisdom and guidaance be with me...And I have been praying that I not react in bitter or angry way. The peace Maker is a book for Christians on Biblical guide to resolve Personal Conflict. every Christian should read this book. It gives you insight on handling conflict and shows you the right things to say and do...Pride is huge relationship killer I have come to find out. I read this book a few years ago, but it is helping big time now. The Lord is working and helping me to be the best Christ like wife and Mom I know how to be. I know I would have messed this whole situation up if I hadn't been leaning on the Lord from the start!!! God Bless you all for praying... I can feel it and it is making a huge diffrence!

Here's an up date

Things are very bad...My heart is broken. I think i may be seperated soon. I can't do any more then I have. I know God hates divorce. And I have done everything I can to make things better. I know I have a part in this too but I honestly can not figure out what. I am to the point where if he leaves so be it. I am scared to death because I have no job, no money, and no idea how I would live!!! (I know God will provide but it is very scarey)

I have been married 25 years and never saw this coming. My husband can't see it, he is blind to his behavior and it is BAD...He has no respect for me, breaks promises, and is verbaly abusive. I have a pastor to start therapy with to help me sort this all out.

I want this marrige to work if things can get better... If he can learn to treat me like a wife he cherishes. He needs the Lord in his life again. He has a friend who is the worst influence you can imagine and he spends 90 percent of his time with him... he works with him.

Please pray for my husband to turn to the Lord, and that the Lord will open his eyes to his behavoir, his friendship with this guy as being poision to out marrige.

Please pray for me to stay close to the Lord, and help me stay strong and well... I am getting sick from the stress... My body is starting to show signs of it. I need prayer to stay strong in the Lord. PLEASE KEEP PRAYING.... Thanks.

Brooke, I will continue to keep you in my thoughts and prayers. May peace be with you. I wish there was more I could say, but I've only been married for 1.5 years. Just know that I'm here for you when you need an ear to listen or a shoulder to cry on. God Bless.

Oh, Brooke, my heart aches for you. Please talk to your pastor as soon as you can, and see if you can get your husband to go to some kind of counseling with you. You can't do this alone. God is there to help, but you need supportive, Godly people helping you as well. If, Lord forbid, this does not work out, you are stronger than your realize. You are a very talented, capable lady. You can make it!!!! I'm praying for you and will ask some very Godly women who I know to pray for you as well.

Brooke, my prayers continue for you.
I have been in some situations where I simply could not see a resolution, and God created a way that I would never have thought of. I am expecting this to happen for you as well. Please keep your ears tuned to His word and once you've given the problem to Him, try not to grab it back. I know this is very difficult, because we always think it's OUR problem... OUR responsibility... yet those of us who invite God into our lives must be prepared to give Him the power and the trust to step back and give Him room to work. His blessings will come to you. I pray that you have the patience to wait until the time is right in HIS plan.

HUGS

Oh, Brooke, your news just breaks my heart. Hang in there. God knows what's needed in your husband's life and sometimes HE has to bring a person to their knees to make them look up.

I'm praying for you and your husband.
