Please pray for us,We need marriage restoration!

My husband is not happy and he talks about leaving and sometimes he says he feels like quitting his job and taking off. How can he do this we have 3 children and I try to tell him to think of them! Please pray for God to speak to him and lead him in the ways he should go. I want only God’s will because I know He knows what is best for us.

I trust him. I just want my husband to be the man God created him to be. pray for us that he becomes that man.

Thank you and God bless!

my marriage is dead, I want God to raise it from the dead. Like when Jesus died and God raised Him from the dead. He was dead then after God raised Him he became a brilliant white, whiter then any white ever. That’s how I want my marriage to be restored, better then I (or anyone) could ever manage!

Thank you and God bless!

Hi Terri! 👋

You are in my prayer journal!!!

I’d like to recommend a book to you. I do not recommend the publisher, in general (quite anti-Catholic) but this book might be a helpful tool for you. It’s called The Power of a Praying Wife by Stormie Omartian. You can use the book alone or use the accompanying prayer and study guide which you can buy separately. Either way it will help you keep your husband thoroughly covered in prayer!

In Christ,
Nancy 🙂

Terri,

I have had your troubles, and Nancy is right. The Power of a Praying Wife is a wonderful book. It will definitely help!

My prayers are with you.

say no more my dear… may God love and keep you!

Memorare
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 with confidence, I fly to you, O virgin of virgins, my Mother. To you 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.

this prayrer has been linked to miracles… 👍
 
I use to be just like you husband…hang in there.

My Testamony:

I grew up and was very active in the Episcopal church. At the age of 18, I joined the military, put Jesus and my religion in the bottom of my footlocker and went off to conquer the world. I lost and got consumed by it. Every once and a while I would open my footlocker to see if Jesus was still there, and he was, then I would close the locker again.

I met a wonderful young Catholic lady who I eventually married. We did not drift away from the Church, I pulled her away from the Church. I was of the world and had no need for a suppressive God. My wife would sneak back to the Church when I was out of the country or too hung over on Sunday morning to care.

I went on a year tour to Egypt at which time my wife felt the need to join the RCIA program to get re-familiar with the Church. This was great for her. While in Egypt, I had the opportunity to go to Bethlehem on Christmas Eve. It was a wonderful site, but I felt nothing and I knew that was wrong.

After my return to the US, the pain of my marital relationship was getting worst.

I remember walking home from work one day. I was in a good mood until I got home. I heard the children playing in the apartment but as soon as I opened the door, they sat very still waiting to see what mood daddy was in. Would they run and hug me or would they run and hide. My mood changed very quickly.

My wife had a good relationship with the kids and I did not have a good relationship with any one. “The reason,” I thought. “Is because they are all Catholic and I am not.”

I went to RCIA and became Catholic. This only made matters worst. Now I knew the Church law and used it against my wife, “AHH, the Pope says this or that.”

The pain of my marital relationship was getting worst.

I was planning to leave for a 6 months military school. My wife told me she was going to board up the apartment and visit her parents while I was gone. She had not planned on returning.

I got injured and could not go the school. While I was recovering, my wife met the Couples for Christ and fell in love with them. I did not like these people, but if it would help the marriage, I’ll give them a chance.

I braced myself because God only knows what she told them. I entered the seminar to find Spiritually Strong Catholic men and women of God who accepted me as I was. Over the course of the seminar, the Lord worked on my heart and marriage and relationships. HE also taught me how to love the Church and my wife.

The Couples for Christ have programs for Youth and Kids which arededicated to spiritually strengthing our children.
 
Thank you all so much Im trying so hard to hang in there its hard. I have that book and power of a praying parent. I pray those all the time and I started to pray the rosery too!
Do you think its because I changed and he doesn’t like it? I use to drink and party and watch movies with sex and curse words in them but now they make me sick. I don’t even want to hear dirty jokes anymore.
I also only listen to christian radio. It seems closer I get to God the
farther he gets away.
 
God bless you! Thank you for hanging in there! I wish more people were as serious about their marriages as you are. I’ll keep you in my prayers and remember you at mass this week.

Dear Terri,

Some of us were talking on a similar thread and we are going to fast and pray about this very issue on Friday, Nov. 12 if you would like to join. We’ll keep you in our prayers. Many of us know how you feel.
 
Adding my prayer for your intention, and for the strengthening of marriages everywhere. +
 
Praying and asking the Holy Family to bless you. Will include your intentions at daily Mass later.
 
Holy Family, bless the family of Terri that her husband may stay lovingly with his family and be devout to them. Sacred Heart of Jesus and Sorrowful and Immculate Heart of Mary, bring peace to their family. Pater Noster, Ave Maria, Doxologia Minor…
 
Our dear Lord, please strengthen and console Terrilee in the sadness, loneliness, anxiety, and struggle she is enduring.
If her husband is reacting to the stresses of work and the responsibilities and complications of family, please help him to find healing, and help him to avoid stress breakdown and avoidance.
Lord please bless this family with mutual love and understanding, and love that helps parents and children through these difficult times and trials.

Mother Mary please pray for this family.
