1 | What if you visualize your wife? | Galatians | Steve V. | 71216 | ||
What about if you are visualizing your wife that you have recently divorced due to her cheating on you and you are still actively trying to work things out with? We are putting God first this time and have been "hanging out" for a little over a month and have not even kissed yet.. | ||||||

Steve V: I have taken the time to read all your notes, and the one question you have asked. I wanted to get as much of an understanding of you that you have said about yourself before responding to you. So my desire is to give you some advice that might be of use, perhaps. Your divorce and the situation of divorce happens to more than half of all Christian marriages. That is proberly no suprise to you. I am sure you and you ex wife are attempting to "putting God first this time". I seriously doubt you can do this on a continued basis with out professional Christian Counseling. Yes, it cost real money! Yes, it will take more time! Most couples say "we can't afford it." If you or her had a life threatening illness that demanded an opperation, no cost would be to much to save their life, right? Well think of saving your marriage, in the same light as that is exactally the same, that's what it amounts to. I do not mean a clergy trained in pastoral counseling. I mean a Degreed PHd in Psychology, who has a srtong Biblical back ground. I believe your wife having an affair is just a tip of the iceburg! I can assure you that neither of you were meeting each other's emotional and spiritual needs. This would not have gone this far if BOTH of you had not failed each other! Cheating sexually, on you marriage partner is always due to hardness of heart! I can say with complete certianty, without correcting and dealing with her and your past you are bound to repeat the same mistakes! After reading about your addictive patterns, of abusing durgs you have some very serious issues to deal with, just in your self. Repenting, changing your direction and renewing your ninds will take more hard work than most couples are willing to endure. You have a rough road ahead if you really want to "putGod first this time." I sincerely hope you do, but the odds are not in your favor! Many couples say they want to have God love them, but refuse to repent and learn to worship and adore our Lord Jesus Christ as marriage partners. I pray you follow this to completion, so God may bless you beyond what ever pain and suffering it will take you to rebuild your marriage. I can assure there are those of who know of where I speak, and would say AMEN! May God direct your steps. justme |

3 | What if you visualize your wife? | Galatians | Steve V. | 71272 | ||
Well, thank you for your reply, we have been discussing seeing a counselor about our situation. As far as how im dealing with the drug problem and my walk with Christ, its FAR better than you could assume and may think. We both have COMPLETELY given up our life to him in a most surrendering way. After speaking with her at great length about why I have made my decision she listened carefully not saying much then in the middle of watching "Left Behind" she stood up and threw ALL her drug accessories (sp?) and paraphenelia (sp again, heh?) away. I was shocked but yet not all at the same time. We both have always believed in Christ but havent been living the life for awhile. I used to be very serious about my faith 13 years ago, but since backslided obviously. But we both are expelling every sin we see in our lives and all for a sincere love for the Christ Jesus. I could go on and on about how much were working on that part of our lives. But as for our marriage I agree, we do need to seek counseling. We have both talked briefly about that lately and do have little money to go toward that but after reading your comments I have decided to talk to her about this tomorrow. Thanks for you thoughts and God bless!! :) |

Steve V. I am so glad you took the time to to think, and decieded to talk with her! Bless you both. I can say with certianty that with each of you seeking Christ's direct will, and with much prayer and repentance, and needing each other as much as you need air to breath, your reward will be great. "LOVE NEVER FAILS" 1 Corinthains 13:8 Cling to this verse. When the work of putting your marriage back anew becomes such a burden, and it will happen, keeping this verse in mind with give you added encouragement. I know it works! justme |

Thanks for the encouragement, it just get tough sometimes, just because we've been trying for about a month now but she still doesnt "feel it"..gets discourageing. But I am surrendering to God's will to let him sort things out. Thanks again though ;) |
