ok, whats going on? are you ok? and i want to be clear here... i am not just asking what your husband did/didnt do... i am asking about you. as a person. if you need to vent ok. i will listen. but i am more concerned about you right now. married couples do have problems... but you have to work it out. Sometimes my sweetheart aint so sweet... but we have to work things thru. sometimes she is wrong, sometimes me. sometimes both of us and we have to meet in the middle... but before any of that happens we both have to go before God and confess our own wrongs or the healing dont come. Gods way is the only way it works. If you are truly innocent in whatever is bothering you... then what you say "vindicate me" may not happen unless he done something real bad that is grounds for divorce... if it aint... you got to pray for him... not as "your" husband... but as your brother in Christ and his relationship with God is more important than you twos relationship. thats when God moves. Put God first in your marriage. but seriously... how are you? are you ok?

I'm alright. I just got upset. I feel like my life is crawling slowly out of a marriage-garbage dump.

No matter my feelings, the fact remains that I allowed myself into a very wicked family by marriage and can now do very little against it except to try not to think about it and survive.

He told me about this missionary. he went to a far away land where the laws were much different. somehow he ended up in jail. He grew angry with God and became bitter. he was bitter for years in jail. he said one day God spoke to him. not as a response to a prayer. just one day out of the blue spoke to him in his cell. He said, I put you here. to reach the lost. the missionary became humble and repented. the missionary stopped looking at his own problems and began to preach, leading hundreds to Christ in this communist countries jail. after some more years he was set free from prison. once again, out of the blue.
are you picking up what i am putting down? let me assure you... your words on this forum have edified me. your instructions on how to live, how to obey, and how to love made me step back and look at my own actions. also, your footsteps are ordered. I think you have a job to do, and it aint staring at a mountain of misery. I do not think its just preaching the gospel either. let your light shine, because when you do, others see.
what i say, i encourage you to pray about it.

Jer 29:7 And seek the peace of the city whither I have caused you to be carried away captives, and pray unto the LORD for it: for in the peace thereof shall ye have peace.
Jeremiah and the Israelites had been carried away captive. yes because they would not hearken unto The LORD. they rebelled.
but here is a question i have been pondering as of late....
what difference is there in the life of Jeremiah during the captivity and before? i do not ask about living conditions on earth. I mean the reality of being under sovereign rule of our KING.
you see we are His... regardless of our situation. does He care about our circumstances? sure. but more so our character, and here it is... the rebellious needed captivity to humble them. our life is His. dont matter if its good situation or bad. dont matter if we like it or not. our life is still His.
we are here to OCCUPY. what is the definition of occupy as a military tactic/strategy?
control and possession of hostile territory that enables an invading nation to establish military government against an enemy or martial law against rebels or insurrectionists in its own territory.
and He said let there be light... and there was light.

Rom 12:9 Let love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good. Rom 12:10 Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another; Rom 12:11 Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord; Rom 12:12 Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer; Rom 12:13 Distributing to the necessity of saints; given to hospitality. Rom 12:14 Bless them which persecute you: bless, and curse not. Rom 12:15 Rejoice with them that do rejoice, and weep with them that weep. Rom 12:16 Be of the same mind one toward another. Mind not high things, but condescend to men of low estate. Be not wise in your own conceits. Rom 12:17 Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men. Rom 12:18 If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men. Rom 12:19 Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord. Rom 12:20 Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head. Rom 12:21 Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.

Let the Holy Lord do with me as He wishes
His glory is more important---if I suffer for that, I can do it with joy.
