He is a very sad person. He is depressed even I would say but instead of seeing a therapist, he just wants to blame me (especially) and others in his life for his “problems”. He can get very angry and I think it’s because he is sad about his life - he struggles a lot in his work and doesn’t have many friends where we moved. We also struggle financially and he sees me as that problem too. He just wants to end the marraige. We are not married in the church but I went to become a Catholic and wanted to get our marriage blessed but he didn’t think it was necessary. We have two kids and for their sake too, I don’t want to tear the family apart. I am giving it a few more months because I do not want to remove our oldest son from school abruptly like that, but would probably have to move back with family maybe during his winter break to make it a more smooth transition on him. I don’t want my husband to be sad all the time but he never wants to take responsibility for his life or actions - he only finds blame in others. Still I think it would be better to try to work it out than rip two child’s lives apart.
 
Virgin spouse of the Virgin Mother of God, St. Joseph, who by your innocence, goodness, and love made happy the heart of God’s most holy Mother, look lovingly down from your exalted throne in heaven and intercede for this married couple that they may be blessed with joy and innocence and a piety like your own and that of your holy spouse.

Send them grace and love for one another, for the sake of Jesus, our Lord. Unite their hearts in unselfish harmony, so that, each yeilding to the other and mindful of the other’s wishes and needs, they may be mutually helped to a holy and devoted life, mutually encouraged to serve God by the faithful care of the family which He has given to them. Teach them to desire to accomplish the will of God in all things, prayerful, dutiful, and affectionate with the charity of Christ.

Thus, helping each other to serve and love God on earth, may they deserve to enjoy together in heaven the never-ending union of hearts of all the blessed, who rejoice together in perfect harmony, in the vision of Jesus Christ, our Lord, who with the Father and the Holy Spirit, in perfect unity showers on the just unending ecstaies of happiness, one God, through all the ages of ages. - Amen

Holy Mother Mary please send peace, love and reconciliation to this family. Bless your children

Hail Mary, full of grace.
The Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou among women,
and blessed is the fruit of thy womb,
Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God,
pray for us sinners,
now and at the hour of our death.
Amen.
 
after re-reading my post I want to clarify that I have gone through RCIA but I am not Catholic as of yet because of his refusal to have our marriage blessed in the church. Just wanted to mention that. While I know we can get divorced and we are not in a valid marriage to the church, I don’t want to hurt my children by separating the family. I would hope that he and I can make it and hopefully someday he may want to be blessed in the church.
 
Lord, please help Forest and bless her life. May she be able to get married in the Church and become a Catholic. May the man in her life have a conversion of heart and see how essential it is to his salvation and to Forest’s salvation to be married in the Church. Help this couple to do the right thing. Help them to live a sacramental life and a life of prayer so they can have a blessed life in you. Thank you, Lord, for hearing my prayer. Amen.
 
Jesus please strengthen forest in wisdom and grace to seek and live all that You desire.
Please ensure her true good and the true good of her boys.
Please do not allow her husband’s limitations to damage the spiritual and emotional well-being of his wife and children.
We commend her husband to Your healing graces, and ask You to help him grow to emotional and spiritual maturity.

“This…is what I pray before the Father from whom every family, whether spiritual or natural, takes its name: Out of His infinite glory, may He give you the power through His Spirit for your hidden self to grow strong, so that Christ may live in your hearts through faith, and then, planted in love and built on love, you will with all the saints have strength to grasp the breadth and the length, the height and the depth; until, knowing the love of Christ, which is beyond all knowledge, you are filled with the utter fullness of God.

Glory be to Him whose power, working in us, can do infinitely more than we can ask or imagine; glory be to Him from generation to generation in the Church and in Christ Jesus for ever and ever. Amen.” [Ephesians 3: 14-21]
 
Hail Mary, full of grace.
The Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou among women,
and blessed is the fruit of thy womb,
Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God,
pray for us sinners,
now and at the hour of our death.
Amen.
