    I could really use some prayers , for my husband and I. He has been working out of town and even now , out of state for 2 years now. It is really taking a toll on our marriage. He has been walking with the Lord for over 20 years. I have been walking with our Lord for 8 years. We have not been to church in over two years. At one time the lord called him to preach. As he did then that devil loves to attack. I'm blessed if I at least get to see him 14 Days a month. But since he has been working out of state he started drinking heavy and his spouse language is horrible. He's not a very nice person much anymore. He does get a little combated towards me. But god gave me this man , God gave me to him . and divorce is not an option. I could really use some prayers. If you have any advice that you could give me or even more questions please do so. We have been married 6 years now.

    I know he is a narcissistic man. I noticed that a few years back but it gets worse whenever he drinks whiskey. I know he loves our lord and save your jesus christ, but that old stinkin devil has got a hold of him right now. His family is not very supposed.

    His children from his previous marriage stopped coming over about two years ago. They come over.

    Ever once in a while but not like they used to. That breaks my heart because whenever I married him.I married the children too. So please just keep asking your prayers and again any advice.Or any questions please ask. I am almost at desperate mode. Thank you and have a very blessed day.

    Dear lady , it seems to me that there is something going on in your husband's head that you don't know about . It certainly sounds as if he is struggling with something . You need him to open up to you , you both need to talk to and listen to each other . It would be best for you to do this when he is sober .

    It could be a million and one different things , something small and simple , or something big and serious . Reasure him that you are his best friend and that whatever the problem is you will be there for him . He must open up and tell you what's going on with him so that the two of you can sort it out and move forward . Be prepared for the fact that you might not like what he has to say . It may be something shocking or upsetting to you so you need to pray to God a lot about this and , pick your moment to ask your husband what the problem is . Tell him that you've noticed he's changed and you want to know what has brought this change on . Remind him that you are his wife and his best friend and you have a right to know what's troubling him and a duty to help him if you can .

    Timing is everything with these dirt of conversations , make sure it's when you won't be disturbed , make sure you have his full attention and that he's relaxed and calm and sober , make sure you don't have to be somewhere else in half an hour .

    Maybe he needs to change his job and come back home and start going to church again and stop drinking . Give him time to speak and get it all out , be a good listener . Hear what he has to say before you start giving your side . If you interrupt him while he's trying to tell you , he may get mad or just stop talking . May God bless you both .
