Prayer Requests > WHAT TO DO IN AN ABUSIVE MARRIAGE??????
i pray you have not moved yet. i have also been there. all i did was asked god to fix the situation and he did. my ex served me with divorce papers and i signed them, i was very tired of the abuse but the love had gone and i didn't want it back because i was always taking the blame for everything and for causing him to hit me and abuse me. i realized i had to love myself more than that and i had to acknowledge the fact that if i didn't love me, he would not either. I had came to the conclusion that he would and could not love me because he was not happy with himself. there is no excuse for abuse. if you are dooing the same thing he is then you both have to come to an understanding that it is not good nor is it healthy for your relationship. you must decide what you want and what matters the most. if you 2 love eachother, ask god for understanding and direction, ask him to come into your lives and anoint your home and ask god for peace in your home and he will do just that. find you a church home that is teaching truth and is living according to the bible, and someone should be able to help you. i pray that god hears your cry and that he will heal your marriage.
God hears your cries and so does everyone reading this post.Be patient! Trust in your Faith that you and your spouse will come to a consentual agreement. About your ex's. They have their own lives to live. Forget about them...Look at what the 2 of you can do to enrich your relationship. Marriage and Church counciling, Family Planning. Local government agencies that help people cope with disfunctions in the family. Use your local resources. I hope this helps. If you really want to save this marriage utilies whats available first. If your spouse isn't willing, then at least you have made an effort and can walk away with ease of mind.
thanks to everyone who read my post and responded. my husband and i have gotten back together and we are now working on our marriage. we started reading the bible with each other and praying together. im gonna ask god for peace in my house and to strenghten my marriage. Thanks again to everyone who prayed for me , and god bless you all.
I am glad that you and your husband are trying to work on your marriage. I commend you for being honest that you both abused each other verbally and physically without painting/blaming your husband for everything that happened. I pray that God forgives both of you and grant you happinness, peace and love in your marriage. Continue to ask God to be in your marriage. You are a great woman. sharon.
