In short, are marriage is and has been in trouble a long time. No sexual intimacy. No interest on my husbands side. I'm interested but no longer pursuing as that has failed. We've had very little relationship, communication, sharing, dates, time together period. Other then "parent business" between us, we just treat each other like roommates.
We struggle financially, spiritually, and on every level. We will be married 15 years next week. I don't particularly feel like celebrating, allthough we will for our daughters sake.
We have been in counseling, but our counselor moved away and now we are looking for another one.
Please pray for unity, desire, spiritual growth, finances and anything God leads you to pray for. Thanks so much. |

Lord, I lift this family and this marriage and this husband and wife up to you in prayer. You know their needs Lord - everything they desire to have in you.
Lord, I ask that you make hard hearts soft, that you take bitter words and make them uplifting to build into each other, I ask that you bring touch, kisses and physical closeness back into this relationship.
Lord, I ask that you change hearts and bring desire back and this couple will pray for their desire for each other to return.
Lord, I ask that you help this husband and wife individually work on their relationship with you, because we know when hearts grow cold toward you there is little capacity to love. Lord, you are the Lord of Love and the Lord of Intimacy and only through you can that be restored when human love no longer is able.
Protect this marriage and draw The Evil One away from this home. |

I thank you for your prayer. I can't say much more right now, but your right, I am feeling very far away from God.
Thank you again, I'm going to spend some time rereading & praying myself! |

hi: Frenzied
Lord: I want to lift up this family to you. I pray you can restore their love for one another. I pray you can enter their hearts and guide them down the right path.
I will pray for you at home.
Please work on you. Read as many books as they suggest on this forum. This is a wonderful site with really good Christians. I know when I get away from GOD, I am lost. Whenever I get into good reading, there are things about myself that I realize I can change and do better.
Keep the faith and don't let it go
