I Just hit 9 months of separation. It happened like a light switch, I was completely blindsided. He told me it was the way I rejected him, pushed him away and that he didn’t feel loved by me. He never expressed any of those prior. God did show me where I fell short as a wife shortly after. We have been married 11 years now. We had just moved to NY, quite literally the day this unraveled. He said that he was done and wouldn’t try counseling, etc. I was able to get him to try 30 days of counseling. The day after our last counseling session, he said he still felt the same way and wanted a divorce, didn’t want to be married anymore. He came back to me the next day, it lasted almost all day but then I realized he was distant again. I gave him space and visited family for a few weeks. Upon returning, I felt the holy spirit guide me to check phone records., I’ve never done that before in my life. We always had a great relationship and trust was always there for the most part. The phone records showed a phone number for the past 30 days, constant calls , a few times a day. I confronted him, he was having an emotional affair. He is a man of integrity though, he waited to talk to her until he told me he wanted a divorce, until he checked out. He ended the relationship on his own, the day he came back to me for a few hours (see above). This changed everything. He grew so distant, so angry, he wouldn’t even look at me in the eye after I found about the emotional relationship. She is 11 years younger and worked at his clinic in TX, where we had just moved from. From there, I stayed too long. We tried a live in trial separation but he was not interested at all. I had tried everything I could. I had to leave it in Gods hands, so I moved out. He was moving as well , but I moved to be closer to family and friends by moving 800 miles away. We haven’t spoken. It’s been so painful. I found rejoice ministries, but didn’t agree with standing. I felt myself turning restoration into an idol, that’s when I found your ministry. I read your book a few months ago and have applied some of the principles. The part I really struggle with is having the Lord be my heavenly husband. I don’t know why I struggle with it so hard. I just have always had him as my lord and savior, never looked at him in any other way. I know He provides for me, etc, I just don’t know about being my husband? God has shown me that I’m “stuck” in my healing / season transition. He showed where I’m struck too - I’ve kept a part of my heart from The Lord. The part that my husband held. I put my ring back on when I read your book and felt God telling me to do so, but I find myself day dreaming that so and so would be a good suitor, etc. the Lord has shown me that he will restore my marriage, so why don’t I trust him? Why can’t I get unstuck? |
Please use the space below to simply speak to God, in your own words, pouring your heart out to Him. |
God, I know you have taken care of me time after time. You have scooped me up from The bottom of my prayer closest. You have wiped every tear. You have danced with me in my car when I needed a smile. You were faithful then and I know you’ll be faithful now. I’m trying to become unstuck but I don’t know how to let you into the hidden part of my heart. I invite you in but I don’t know if that’s enough? |
In order for us to minister more effectively to you, please check what concerns apply to you: |

Dear precious bride from the US, I am so grateful that you found our Ministry and I am so sorry for all the hurt you are going through. Our Darling Lord allowed the hurt and I believe it is to draw you closer to Him and He will be the One to turn your husband’s heart. The king’s heart is like a stream of water directed by the LORD; he guides it wherever he pleases. P21:1 https://biblehub.com/proverbs/21-1.htm
I have to admit I too struggled in the beginning that the Lord is my Heavenly Husband although the Lord gave me the promise years ago when my husband left me: “For your Maker is your husband— the LORD Almighty is his name— the Holy One of Israel is your Redeemer; he is called the God of all the earth.” I54:5 https://biblehub.com/isaiah/54-5.htm So I asked my Darling Lord, that I don’t understand how He can be my Heavenly Husband and in April 2023 we had an electricity outage all over our town and I had to drive at night, whereby I was scared and I said Lord please drive with me and I heard my Darling saying I am right here next to you and there is just felt His overwhelming love for me and I just felt in my heart that the Lord is my Heavenly Husband, so ask our wonderful Lord to help you understand it more.

querida, comprendo lo que estás pasando, y me maravillo porque aprendí en este viaje que cuando alguien tiene el corazón correcto, al buscar al señor, el mueve todos los corazones hacia él como las corrientes del río, cuando te leí me vino a la cabeza solo una promesa, pero creo que es para ti “He aquí que yo hago cosa nueva; pronto saldrá a luz; ¿no la conoceréis? Otra vez abriré camino en el desierto, y ríos en la soledad”. Isaías 43:19.
cuando tú corazón está dispuesto, en cualquier momento sentirás sin saberlo todo eso que esas buscando y entonces te darás cuenta que Él siempre está obrando.
dear Bride, I understand what you are going through, and I marvel because I learned on this trip that when someone has the right heart, when seeking the Lord, he moves all hearts towards him like the currents of the river, when I read you it came to my mind head only a promise, but I think it is for you “Behold, I do a new thing; It will soon come to light; you won’t know her? Again I will make a way in the desert, and rivers in the wilderness.” Isaiah 43:19.
When your heart is willing, at any moment you will feel without knowing everything that you are looking for and then you will realize that He is always working.
The Bible tells us :
egond Bible
The wise woman builds her house, But the foolish woman tears it down with her own hands. Proverbs 14.9
Louis Segond Bible
It is better to dwell in the corner of a roof, Than to share the dwelling of a quarrelsome woman.
