Today I am the only one in my family UN-invited to a wedding, because of an inappropriate action on my husbands part over 30 years ago.

I didn’t find out what happened until 15 years ago but since then any family function, I’m not allowed to be a part of, as long as I stay married to my husband.

I am feeling very sad, dejected, and rejected today. My husband says get over it, and most days I can, but I hurt so much inside. He says that my sister is trying to hurt him through me, but he’s not hurting at all. He doesn’t care anymore.

I could go into a whole bunch of details, but that wouldn’t make any sense. I don’t usually feel so depressed and alone and rejected. It’s horrible, and not my nature.
I don’t usually share this kind of stuff either. I guess I’m just hoping someone will pray for my family.
 
Praying hard for your family to have a change of heart and to realize it is you that is being punished, not your husband…

Praying this, and praying for you too, to bear this burden.

Hail Mary,…

Marla, I will also pray for your family, do not let anyone take your peace just remember this passage:

Matthew:
19:5 and said, For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife; and the two shall become one flesh?
19:6 So that they are no more two, but one flesh.

You are your husband’s and he is yours let no one come in between, if they cannot forgive him that is not very Christian like.
So many times I have seen more charity received from strangers than “family” I truly wonder.
 
Have you considered using a skilled mediator to resolve the issue? It is always a pity when families are unable to forgive and move on.
 
Thank you for your prayers.
It is in the midst of adversity that we find out where our strength lies, right?
I will need God’s strength over the next while to have a grateful and loving heart.

Re mediation. Not going to happen. She is not interested and is quite happy in her life. In all truth, there is really no reason for her to want to mediate.She is not a Christian and doesn’t believe forgiveness is any kind of virtue, but more of a weakness, which is why I pray for my family.

I will rest in the arms of my Lord, knowing that His peace is the most important thing. I have prayed all night long for this situation, and for peace in the Middle East. My friends who are living in Bethlehem right now remind me that my little problems are just that. 🙂

Our God is much bigger than both.

I feel like I’m living in a Psalm! Starting with worry and woe, and then praising God! There you go!
Pax.
 
Memorare (Prayer to Our Lady)
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 by this confidence, I fly unto 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
