Greetings family in Christ, My husband and I are in a continual storm. He had an affair and contracted a STD and as a result we have lived separately for 1 1/2 years. We still talk often, but seem to be standing in shallow quicksand. Not moving up, down, left or right. This is a very frustrating and discouraging place to be. I believe in my heart God knows, sees, hears and cares about what we are going through. I'm asking for prayer for Gods clear direction in our lives and movement concerning this marriage. When this first came to be , I was willing to put the marriage back together no matter the cost. Now I struggle with the whole situation. It feels so selfish to ask for prayer for myself and this relationship when there are so many people who need prayer for salvation of their eternal soul. I sometimes feel like I'm practically immobilized in service to our Lord due to constantly dealing with this troubled relationship. Please pray we would learn Gods lesson form this and He would relieve and deliver us from this situation. Thanks to all for your prayers. Faith in Him.

Most Gracious and Heavenly Father,
We know you are concern about every single area of our lives and we ask that you would move in this situation immediately. Father we know that only you have the answer to this request and we ask that you grant it right now. Lord please hear and answer this request. Amen

God wants us to go to Him for guidance and prayers. Our relationship with him is as a child to our parent. He does have his hand in our lives.

Have you gone to counseling? Perhaps seeking solid Christian counseling would be helpful in this situation.

My prayers are with you.

Hi Faith. I can relate to the devastation you feel as my girlfriend also cheated on me (however, did not contract a STD). I will pray for you that both of you decide to move in a positive direction, whether together or not, and that the Lord will bless you. I do believe that everything is forgiveable and hopefully, you will heal from this. I hope he will accept responsibility and repent. I will pray for you now....

Thank you for your prayers. After months of counseling, talking and many prayers, I wish I could say it's all better. However, our marriage of 25+ years is sadly ending. It's an extremely painful/hard process, but I know our Lord cares and loves us deeply. I don't understand many things in this situation, but I know God is in control. Thank you for your continual prayers as I/we continue through this storm in life. I believe God will lead me/us by still waters soon.
God bless and keep you all, Faith.

whats amazing is that as painful as this is now, after some time elapses, you may feel so much better and realize how grateful you are that it has ended. that is my hope for you. it doesn't take away from the pain of the loss. that is devastating. 25 yrs is a lot of time and i can't fathom that pain. splitting everything up, christmas ornaments, etc.. that is so hard. i will continue to pray for you.

Faith, you are in my thoughts and prayers. May God bless you through this difficult time.
