Disciple of Prayer
I need prayer for my husband and our marriage. We got married 9 months ago. Five days after we got married he quit his job. He was a caregiver for his mother. At the time his mom was in rehab so he had no income. She comes home in July and he refuses to be his mom's caregiver again. In September things look like that might change with my job so he finally starts caregiving for his mom again. Even though he has some income he still always has a reason why he can't help me with the bills. He always needs something for himself. The beginning of Feb his mother passes away. She had been in the hospital since the end of dec. So no income for him again. We live with his mother and sister. Since his mom passed his sister has bought a house and is moving in 2 months. My paycheck barely covers the bills. I can't pay rent, utilities, etc on top of what I already have. Every time I try to talk to him about finding work he gets very angry with me. I'm to the point where I'm considering leaving him. I know that's wrong, we are both born again, but this struggle alone is just too much for me.
 
May God guide your steps!

God supports marriage, but He doesn't ask us to be in situations that are harmful for us. Your husband might have married you so that he can stop working; that seems to be the pattern so far. Also, as much as possible, a Christian man should take his role as the head of the family - it sounds like you have that role. My point: some bad patterns have been established in this marriage. You need counseling as a couple and -most important!- you need to decide for yourself how to proceed.

Bless you.
 
Heavenly Father, please step in and intervene in this marriage and what's been going on within it. Please wrap your loving arms around ### and guide her steps to what she should do. IJNA!
 
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.
