I pray for a miracle restoration of my marriage and that my wife regains faith in me and in us. I pray for my wife's salvation. My wife and I have been separated for over three years by virtue of military life. This will continue until I retire in 2012. These years of separation were by choice in trying to provide for my family a comfortable life, but now I know that being there with them and loving them to the utmost, should have been my first priority.
My wife has been living an emotionally detached/distance, indifference to me life since I first departed for Afghanistan in 2008. She decided then that she wanted a divorce. She finally decided to file for divorce this summer. We were married by the Catholic church in 1994. When we last spoke face to face, she told me I am you now and you are me (in reference to the significant change that I have made in rediscovering my faith and trust in the Lord).
Her will and pride to setting herself free from me is blinding her to the point of no return. Her sole source of why she wants a divorce is the past. But how far into the past and what ugliness in that past changed her, she will not say.
I realize now that both her and my daughter need to be saved and we need to take that step in committing our lives to Christ. I pray that this blindness is taken away in the name of Christ. I pray that her eyes will be open to the truth and understands that we need to make this work, for our daughter's sake. I pray that all soul ties and emotional ties that are unGodly will be broken in the name of Jesus!
As of now, my divorce situation is a reality that is killing me and as I go day by day, it is making her more blinded to the point of no communication. I ask for prayers in assistance that my wife finally opens her eyes and realizes that our marriage is not hopeless. I pray that we experience a miracle of salvation of our marriage and restoration of faith and love in the name of Jesus.
