I guess I am impatient. My frustrations come from the conversations we have that most of the time, he starts! So, that is a good thing. The fact that he wants to talk about, question, debate Christianity. It is something! I will always continue to pray. You are right, I need to pray for someone else to come into his life. A mentor. I honestly believe that that person may be at my Church right now. It looks to me like there are a lot of men at my Church that my husband could find friendship with. I will work on my Faith. God knows my struggles.Peggyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15658513449613552971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6872355549581971972.post-44070381962864284792009-03-23T18:00:00.000-07:002009-03-23T18:00:00.000-07:00Love what you're doing here and am joining in, alb...Love what you're doing here and am joining in, albeit a little late. It's so important to have this encouragement. It is comforting to know that a book has been written and others are blogging about daring to love, it means I'm not the only one who struggles in this area! :o)A House FULL of Gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02310470230095237996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6872355549581971972.post-82068176103903099162009-03-18T13:08:00.000-07:002009-03-18T13:08:00.000-07:00I'm 2 days behind and oh do I need to work on thes...I'm 2 days behind and oh do I need to work on these last 2 dares!<BR/><BR/>I have always given first proirity to kids.

So many times a woman seeks to change her husband into what she thinks he should be, instead of allowing God to change him into what He wants him to be.<BR/><BR/>They have the best of intentions, but like you said, the wives can't do it. Only God can.<BR/><BR/>My husband is a believer but my dad wasn't for many years and my mom prayed faithfully and waited for him to come to the Lord.<BR/><BR/>Funny how when we pray "Lord change them" he usually winds up changing US instead!<BR/><BR/>I am looking forward to being bloggy friends too. Thank you for your sweet comments!momsthewordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14519343990735608713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6872355549581971972.post-74580411485967402592009-03-18T00:11:00.000-07:002009-03-18T00:11:00.000-07:00Peggy, don't get discouraged. The Bible tells us(I...Peggy, don't get discouraged. The Bible tells us<BR/><BR/>(I have had to remind myself of these things)<BR/><BR/>And let us not be weary in well doing : for in due season we shall reap , if we faint not . Gal 6:9<BR/><BR/>The other verse I think that is key for us who have backslidden or unsaved hubbys is<BR/><BR/>Likewise , ye wives , [be] in subjection to your own husbands ; that , if any obey not the word , they also may without 427 the word be won by the conversation of the wives ; <BR/><BR/>The word CONVERSATION here is not talking about what you 'say' it means BEHAVIOR....here is the definition below.<BR/><BR/>manner of life, conduct, behaviour, deportment<BR/><BR/>So it is best if we just do not get into spiritual talks with our husbands, we must PRAY and be submissive wives as the Bible leads us to.<BR/><BR/>I struggle in this area as well but I have done damage trying to explain God to my husband. When I do this I am unknowingly assurping authority over him (kinda the I am at a higher moral standard then you attitude)<BR/>This is from experience and also from what my husband shared after he got saved. He still struggles with being the leader of the home, and one of the reasons is because to my shame I have sqenched his leadership by trying to be his Holy Sprit.<BR/><BR/>Hope this helps.<BR/>Don't loose faith....you may not see results but I promise you if you are praying God is doing a work in your husband. (And what you may be seeing is him just fighting the spirit)<BR/><BR/>Before my hubby got saved one way I also prayed was that God would bring someone in his life that loved the Lord and that would be a influence to him.<BR/> <BR/>You may not be the one to lead him to the Lord, however you ARE planting seeds and now you need to just let God do the watering :)<BR/><BR/>(((BIG HUGGS)))) your way sweetie!GraceFromHimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04002658313843275194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6872355549581971972.post-52503583969591360342009-03-17T23:11:00.000-07:002009-03-17T23:11:00.000-07:00I pray for my spouse daily.

He just does not believe and I am beginning to think I am supposed to just accept that.Peggyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15658513449613552971noreply@blogger.com
