I know praying is what comes to all your minds...praying helps but i feel it only helps temporary. Right now, I am building a relationship with Christ and trying to get into church. My husband doesnt really belive. I feel that he doesnt, anyways..and there is always tension between us. We constantly argue and quarrel. These past two days i have been just agreeing with everything he says and try to keep my mouth shut. It is soooo hard for me though. my husband thinks im so narrow minded about things that are opposite of God and he gets frustrated with me because i dont wanna hear about those things or because i show little interest. I find that i get quite angry with him and Im starting to realize satan is trying to get me off track. what should i do. I know its my fault for marrying an unbeliever (i think) and now i have to pay for it. At the time when we met, i wasnt living for the Lord, but i still believed in Him and had my faith, i just wast living for Him. Now, i crave the Lord and long to be with Him and see his beautiful face. I want to live the right way and do things to please Him. Its been hard for me lately due to the relationship. I pray the Lord changes Jasons heart and puts someone in his life to show who He really is. I try talking to Jason about the Lord but he isnt interested. I dont know what to do anymore. and, i find myself wishing i wasnt with him anymore or at times i just want to leave him and never look back...whats your opinion? Help Please!
ok david....this movie literally took me alllllllllll day to watch lol. some parts took forever to load but it was totally worth it! the end twist took me by surprise. i liked it! thank you for showing me this!!
I just wanted to send you a quick note to encourage you to hang in there.. Marriage is very important to God...even the unequally yoked ones. I will respond more later ..now I have to get going for the day... God can and does restore unequally yoked relationships..He restored (and is still restoring) mine. For now, you are wise to hold your tongue..
thank you Carla, i will look to you for encouragement and hope because you are going through the same thing with me...its hard at times, but i know i just gotta pray for patience and wait for His will. thank you and God bless!
My dear Sandra, I have walked this path so very recently. I accepted Jesus in to my life in May of last year and haven't looked back. I too have or had a husband that was a non believer. He did not grow up in the Church, his family mocked those that believed and his views on Christians was very skewed. Because of circumstances in my life I know that I had no choice but to turn my life to God and pray that he would work through me to show my husband just how truly wonderful life can be with Jesus by your side. I watched the movie "FireProof" and then went out and bought the book "The Love Dare". It changed me and the way that I dealt with my husband and his non belief. I learnt how to talk to him and treat him without forcing my beliefs on him. By treating him with unconditional love, by showing him the changes in me and by accepting him for who he is and praying for him, he too now has come to God and accepted Jesus in to his life. Don't let Satan cast doubt in your mind. Stay strong in the Lord, have faith, and yes Pray. Dont lose sight of what God has in store for you and your marriage. Its not an easy road and you will get frustrated and when that happens then just pray that God works through you and gives you strength to help your husband out of Satan's grasp. Patience is a great gift.
Wow, your testimony brings me hope...maybe God brought us and you guys together so that we could help save our husbands? im hoping the Lord will help bring Jason to Him through me or something like that..I've got to stay positive! Thank you! God bless
Thank you Mary, i have to remember to stay positive in tough situations and know that the Lord is working. I have to pray for patience know that the Lord knows what He is doing. God Bless you
Sandra, just as certain as you are building a relationship with Christ, remember...He is building one with you too! Your Lord is perfecting (establishing) His strength in your weakness. As you pray in faith, believing the Lord and relying on Him from within, He will prove Himself faithful in your family. Trusting God will always cause your flesh (your natural self) to suffer. Loving your husband anyway, being kind and patient anyway, and being obedient during our trials, are an ability given by the Holy Spirit.
This the scriptures call "walking by faith and not by sight". It is growing in Christ.
You told Him you wanted to know, love and trust Him. That is exactly what He is doing, He's just doing it through and in your home. "Your family is the true church the Lord is building." Let Him have His way! Praise Him!!
