I Live With An Alcoholic

Please pray that I get a better job so that I can pay all my bills on my own.  I live with an alcoholic (my fiancé) that pays half of the household bills.  When he gets home from work he just drinks and ignores me.  I have tried over and over to tell him that this is a serious problem and he just says he will try harder, but he never does.  I feel so frustrated and alone.  I am embarrassed to confide in my family, but I'm sure they know what's going on.  I try to avoid family functions with him because he embarrasses me every time.  I'm at my wits end and feel like I am wasting my life.  I cannot make him get better, but with a better job I would be able to have a choice to tell him to get help or leave. I would lose my house without his income.  I love him but he is not the person I once knew and I so badly want happiness in my life again.  Please pray that God can somehow intervene and make him get help or get me out of this situation.  Amen
 
Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
