| Since I married 3 years ago I found out so many things I would not wish on anybody. Everybody knew my husband as the party boy and were so suprised that I married him. You see my husband made me believe he was a good man before we married, a man who wanted to be a family man. We both have kids from prevoius relationship but we were never married before, our marriage is our first marriage for both. And eventhough he stated he wanted a family life before marriage, he does not live as a family man and is more focussed on seeking pleasure outside of the house and on social media platforms. Living like the world, trying to numb his pain of great losts at a young age by anything he believes will help: substance abuse, gambling, women, partying. He always denies his unfaithfulness, even continued to deny it after medical proof and blamed me while I was never unfaithful to him.
I had told my husband several times to leave, that I no longer wanted this marriage however he said he would but he never left. After the last time I told him to leave, I found this website and read: God will restore your marriage, in a couple of days. I repented to God that I told my husband to leave and about all the things I failed at as a wife, I love God and want to live his way. After repenting to God, I did not tell my husband to leave anymore but not because I dont want that but because I want to follow God, but its really hard living with a man who lives the party lifestyle. I pray for my husband's salvation, I know that nothing can happen outside of God and I am learning to trust God so much more. It is amazing the changes God has done in me, see some here: These are just some of the changed areas, God is so good and I cant wait to see what God will do with my attitude, pride, selfrighteousness to just name a few of the many areas I still need to work on God's words are true, he is close to the broken hearted and those crushed in spirit. It took ecactly this to teach me to get to know God as my husband because of all of this pain I cry out to God and want to be closer to him. I thank God for never leaving or forsaking me, I thank God for taking me on this journey with him, which has taught me that God is all we need and when we have him we are truly blessed. |
| Please use the space below to simply speak to God, in your own words, pouring your heart out to Him. |
| Lord, I know you love me and you love my husband too. If I do not pray for him who will? But he is causing so much pain in so many ways. I see that he is lost and in so much pain too, I dont know why you choose me to be his wife but I do know that with you all things work for good for those that love you, for those that are called according to your purpose. I love you Lord, thank you for loving me so much that you would use anything to draw me closer to you. Father you know my situation is not easy but its also my fault because you hate idols and I had my husband as an Idol. I am sorry father, please teach me how to keep you as number 1 in my heart. I am sorry for hurting you, make me faithful to keeping you as my number 1 in my life forever. Show my husband the same love you have shown me, and forgive him for he does not know what he is doing, father my husband is drowning safe him please. Father let your will be done in our lives, for your Kingdom and your glory. In Jesus mighty name, amen. |

Dear Bride, what pain you are in your marriage, I know how it feels when a man lives his own life and comes home late at night. I am so grateful He brought you into this ministry and that you have already learned so much from the book ‘How God Can and Will Restore Your Marriage.’ He brought you into this ministry with a great plan.
Jeremiah 29:11 ASV
For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith Jehovah, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you hope in your latter end.

God has brought this crisis into your life so that you will come closer to Him. He wants so badly to have first place in your life. He wants you to be His Bride! I am grateful that it is also your desire to put Him first. I want to encourage you to start living the Finding the Abundant Life lessons and completing your journals.

I also want to encourage you to read the lesson about the freedom to let go. This will teach you to let go of your husband even more, which will ensure that you come closer to Him.

I know the situation you are facing feels very frustrating, I know how you are feeling because I have been there, but I promise you there is hope in the Lord.
“Though you have made me see troubles, many and bitter, you will restore my life again; from the depths of the earth you will again bring me up. You will increase my honor and comfort me once more.” Ps71:20-21
He knows what you’re going through and He’s working all things together for your good. It’s also a chance for you to start fresh and build a new life that’s centered on Him.
Even if your husband wants your marriage to end in divorce, almost all of us have been in that situation and we too have tried to fight for our marriages, we get in our husbands’ way and stop them but we need to get out of their way and let them go for a while. God can restore your marriage, even if you’re the only one pursuing restoration. Just be still and give all your concerns to the One who cares and wants to take your pain away.
If you haven’t already started please do the courses and journal, as they will help renew your mind. https://hopeatlast.com/c1/
Ask Him to give you strength and guidance and read the Bible. Read it regularly and let it speak to your heart. 💕
Dear precious bride I am so sorry for all the hurt your have gone through but I am so grateful that your trust is in our Darling Lord and that you now sleep in perfect peace.
I want to encourage you to put all your focus on our Darling Lord and just experience His everlasting love for you more and more – https://loveatlast.org/
I also want to encourage you to please start with the Finding the Abundant Life ( https://loveatlast.org/finding-the-abundant-life/ ) and I look forward to see what the Lord is going to do more in your life, because as I read I could see He has already done so much.
