love

my husband is in a battle for our marriage. sometimes he says the most horrible things to me with the sole intent to hurt me. other times he is kind, loving, warm. he just told me that sometimes when he gets frustrated with me, he doesn't know if he loves me or not. i tried to take it back later, but that is too hard to do. he says that i have changed a lot since we got married in june. i thought i had changed but for the good. i think he has changed too. he didn't show me his temper before.
sometimes i wonder if he has had an affair. i actually asked him tonight. he said no. the last time i asked, though, he got very upset.
i dog and he even have issues. the dog growls when he comes into the bedroom. i don't know what is up with that; i only have negative guesses.
i had a friend from church recently ask me how married life was going. i told him i had learned a lot. he then told me that the first year for them was terrible, that if they had lived in a two-story house, someone would have jumped. as horrible as that story sounds, it is comforting to know that believers struggle too.
please pray with me: that God will show me light in this darkness; that God will help my husband know how to restrain his tongue from anger and to use is tongue to guide me properly when needed; that God will help me to be a better wife. Probably most importantly, please stand with me in believing that this is the man that God has for me to marry and that God will teach me how to love him...even when i, in my fallen flesh, don't want to. help me, Lord, to choose to love my husband daily. to choose to bind in Your Son's name the things he says that do not come from love. to appreciate him more when he succeeds.
if my marriage is to survive, it will be due only to God's grace and the covering of prayer warriors. he and i need to become warriors too.
i ask (and ramble on about) all these things in Your name,
amen

I still pray for you and your husband... God has been bringing
you both through these months... even the times you didn't know it... "Love is more a matter of will than anything else."
is a quote, author unknown... that I learned when I was first
married just a few years back, it helped to know that you had to Will yourselves to stay "in love" because "in love" was a up and down feeling... where as "love" just "love" could be a constant if your will was involved. God WILL take you through
more days of marriage into happier healthy times if you WILL
continue to Trust in His Loving WILL for you and your husband... Keep trusting God... for the Bible says ....

"God is LOVE!"

Who better to learn from on how to be, and to stay, and
to Will ourselves to Love?

I love your Faith... May God bless you and your husband!

Oh Lord I bind the words of this man upon himself and ask you Lord to fill him everytime he opens his mouth that his hurtful words and gestures will be bound upon himself and he will be unable to get the anger and frustration out unless he uses healthy words I ask you to meet him wherever he is and blanket him with your truth of his actions that he will have to be truthful with his wife whenever he sees her. Lord I ask for your intervention upon this situation that whatever is hidden will be made known and I ask for your protection around this woman who is helpless Lord. I bind him with Godly truth of his actions and his words and open the lines of healthy communication upon this couple... Lord give this lady a new insight and great strength to overcome what is trying to overcome her...in the precious name of Jesus I pray amen...your sister in Christ heidijo

Praise God you still have a sense of humor while going through all this!
First of all let me recommend a book to you that will help you so much..Power of a Praying Wife..by Stormie Omartian. This book has been quite an eye opener for me..It really teaches you how to pray for your husband and how to pray for yourself to be a better wife to your husband. Really gives a lot of insight on how to deal with your man. Shows you how to pray for change in him and in you.
The author also has written one for the men if your husband cares to read it.
Second..I stand in agreement with your for change in your household. I pray that your husband learns to love you just like the bible said..like Christ..we do not talk bad to Christ..we dont' say mean things to Him and we treat Him with respect..I pray you and your husband both learn how to do that with each other. It's hard but tounges have to be bridled..the tounge is the most dangerous body part we own..it can cut down and tear down a human quicker than any sword. I pray that harsh words of the past are quickly forgotten and the focus is on forgiveness..Lord give them both correction wherever it is needed. I pray that God sends some "seasoned" married people into your life to lift you up and encourage you. I pray that the Lord blesses and strengthens your marraige and gets you over this trial. Satan is attacking your relationship..as he loves to destroy what GOd has joined together. I pray that satan is rebuked from your marriage and that God puts a hedge of protection around you and your husband..I pray that you are both blessed..Dear Lord please bind the darkness satan is trying to put on this couple..in Jesus name..amen
