Hello everyone

I am currently separated from my husband. He has been mean and hateful towards me and has been threatening divorce. I have com back from holy week vacations and possibly will be facing the divorce anytime soon. My confessor told me to go ahead with it and get an annulment but still something in my heart tells me to fight for my marriage. I ask for your help and prayers to touch my husband’s heart. Please help me pray to be a strong person , pray for my marriage and to accept God’s will.

Thank you.

I am so sorry and you will be in my prayers. On the practical side, do you know if you are able to attend Retroveau which is a retreat for marriages with serious problems. May God bless you and keep you safe in the palm of His hand.
 
Thanks for your prayers robwar. My husband has told me that no marriage encounter will bring back the live he had for me. He has been very critical and judgemental throughout the marriage and has been very selfish and mean but despite all of this I still want my marriage to work out. We are separated right now because he does not want to have children because he feels I am not ready for the responsibility. I will just place all my trust in the Lord. Thank you for listening.

Jesus, Mary and Joseph we ask you to be with Mayita and her husband as they journey through difficult times. May their struggles mirror yours and may they find solace in that. Dear God grant the grace to them that is necessary to view their themselves as the other’s primary vocation and may the Love that pours from you find its way into the heart of these two.
In Jesus name we pray.
Amen
 
Lord, please remedy this situation in accord with the Father’s merciful will, that grace and charity abound. Lead these souls to heaven, now and forever, with joy and perseverance. Send angels to minister to them, and through Our Lady’s intercession, may the love of Christ surface in this situation to the recognition of all parties. Amen.
 
I am very sorry that your marriage is breaking up, but why do you want to stay with a man who says he does not love you anymore, who is mean to you and who doesn’t want a family? Trust your confessor on this one, Mayita.

O Holy Patroness of those in need, St. Rita, because thy pleadings before thy Divine Lord are almost irresistible, and because, thou hast been lavish in the granting of favors, thou hast been called the Advocate of the Hopeless and even of the Impossible. St. Rita, so humble, so pure, so mortified, so patient and of such compassionate love for thy Crucified Jesus, thou couldst obtain from Him whatsoever thou askest especially:

That Mayita learns God’s holy will for her concerning her marriage and that her confessor be enlightened by the Holy Spirit to properly guide Mayita

Because of your power, all confidently have recourse to thee, expecting, if not always relief, at least comfort. Be propitious to our petition, showing thy power with God on behalf of thy suppliant. Be lavish to us, as thou hast been in so many wonderful cases, for the greater glory of God, for the spreading of thine own devotion, and for the consolation of those who trust in thee. We promise, if our petition is granted, to glorify thee by making known thy favor, to bless and sing thy praises forever. Amen.
 
I just caught this post and I’m so sorry you are going through such a hard time in your marriage. And, I’ll definitely be praying that you’ll know what steps to take next with your husband. It’s so hard if one spouse isn’t on board with saving the marriage. 😦 And, I know you said your husband wasn’t willing to go to a retreat or see someone with you. But, sometimes it does help to get some counseling on your own. Or, I’ve heard of books like I Don’t Want a Divorce: A 90 Day Guide to Saving Your Marriage by Dr. David Clarke and William G. Clarke or When I Do Becomes I Don’t by Laura Petherbridge that might offer you some insight. Just FYI. Well, hang in there friend and don’t give up hope!
 
I just prayed a decade of the Rosary for your intentions. May Our Lady help you and your marriage.
 
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary,
that never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection,
implored your help or sought your intercession,
was left unaided.
Inspired with this confidence,
I fly to you, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother;
to you do I come, before you I stand, sinful and sorrowful.

O Mother of the Word Incarnate,
despise not my petitions,
but in your mercy hear and answer me.

Amen.
