I have always said to couples asking about marriage to Invite God into the relationship bce He is the only perfect One-we all fall short of the glory of God and need Him to make it work at any and all levels.
it indeed was, sent via the Holy Spirit <3 to you then us. My husband and I had a heartfelt talk last night and a beautiful time together. I pray we have more of that. Thank you for leading my heart first to Christ, its not easy to submit and be humble, but its right/righteous.
How and when did those redemption moments come? Also, how would you advise someone in a destructive marriage when only one spouse is willing to do the work and boundaries are necessary? This paragraph gives me hope ~ "God’s greatest joy is to rescue, resurrect and restore. It’s His specialty. He loves to take broken hearts, fractured relationships, and shattered hope, and restore it to better than it was before."
I just have the same question as Cheryl Samples, how long do you have to endure emotional coldness, no physical touch unless he wants you, what to do when your husband tells you, he feels indifferent towards you? How are you supposed to love and reconcile, when you are always, and believe me I really mean always, are the problem, although I try to serve. How do you keep hope up, when you are not allowed to have needs or boundaries? What to do when it takes your health away, how to go on when you get weaker?
