Dearest Bride.
I am sorry for the pain you are experiencing right now.
Thank you for opening your heart. I am so grateful to hear that you have indeed read the How God Can and Will Restore Your Marriage book, read it over and over again.
I’d like to encourage you to start with the first chapter of A Wise Woman: https://hopeatlast.com/c3/d1-chapter-1-on-the-rock/
I’d like to leave these two verses with you:
“When a woman’s ways are pleasing to the Lord, He makes even her enemies to be at peace with her.” Prov. 16:7.
“Delight yourself in the Lord; and He will give you the desires of your heart.” Ps. 37:4.
I look forward to hearing from you on how our Heavenly Father is leading you.
Dear precious bride I am so sorry for what you are going through. Because you mentioned that your husband does not talk to you, I want to encourage you with this promise: “The king’s heart is like a stream of water directed by the LORD; he guides it wherever he pleases.” P21:1 ( https://biblehub.com/proverbs/21-1.htm ) and all you have to do is put all all your focus and trust in our Darling Lord and He will touch your husband’s heart “And I will give you a new heart, and a new spirit I will put within you. And I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh and give you a heart of flesh.” E36:26
Precious bride I want to encourage you to read this lesson: https://hopeatlast.com/c2/d8-separated/ and I want to encourage you to please the course although you have read the book, because the course includes testimonies and you also get the chance to journal at the end of each lesson and journaling is so important because there you get the change to pour out your heart to our Darling Lord.
Precious bride I want to encourage you to make the Lord your First Love – https://loveatlast.org/ (it changed my life) and the moment we put the Lord First, everything just starts to fall into place and I want each and every women to experience our Darling Lord’s everlasting love and trust Him to bring healing and restoration, like only He can do, while you fill yourself with more and more of Him.
I see you are from South Africa, so please come and visit our South African (Afrikaans blog – you can use the translate button if you don’t understand Afrikaans), where we post daily encouragement and what we have learned through lessons, it would be lovely to see you there – https://uiteindelikhoop.com/blog/
Dear Bride, I loved where you asked: “Draw me closer to you and wrap me with your love. Lord’ make me better!”
When I saw this, I was reminded of a verse:
“Come close to God, and God will come close to you…” James 4:18
It is so amazing that all we need to do is come close to Him and then He comes close to us. I can see you taking that first step dear bride. I am hopeful that as you continue to do your courses mentioned above and grow closer to Him, you will find that He draws closer to you and the healing in your life will start. I am excited to hear from you and see the amazing testimony that will come from this.
