I'm new to this forum, but have browsed a few times. Finding GT and this discussion area has been really great. It's been a long few months, as I found out about my husbands emotional affair. It's been a hard time letting it all go, especially when I get easily discouraged because he no longer thinks he loves me. We are at a point where I don't know what more to do, I simply am lost and confused. Where is God leading us? And how can I remain faithful in His plans for me? I am still hurting over what happened, and what makes it worse, is he tells me he no longer loves me. That automatically has me thinking about his friend. How do we get past this together? If we can get past this trial in our marriage, I have complete faith that we will have a great marriage, that we never would have had, had we not gone through this.

I struggle with this, and I am sure many other Christians do, also. On my desk at work I have this daily calendar from "Purpose Driven Life". Today's message is very appropriate. It says:

Quote:
Genuine surrender says, "Father, if this problem, pain, sickness, or circumstance is needed to fulfill your purpose and glory in my life or in another's, please don't take it away." This level of maturity does not come easy. In Jesus' case he agonized so much over God's plan that he sweat drops of blood. Surrender is hard work. In our case, it is intense warfare against our self-centered nature.
