Dear bride, I understand. Before my restoration, I too was always angry and bitter, always complaining. Until the Lord changed my heart to seek Him! Please put all your focus on our Lord, He wants to be first in your life. Read the book How God Can and Will Restore Your Marriage and start with Course 1 https://hopeatlast.com/c1/ it was life changing for me!
Also, I want to encourage you to let go of your husband for a little while https://hopeatlast.com/c2/d15-the-freedom-of-letting-go/ into the arms of our Lord. He is the only one who can change your husband’s heart back to you as He did in my situation.
“I know what I’m doing. I have it all planned out—plans to take care of you, not abandon you, plans to give you the future you hope for” (Je29:11 MSG).
My dear, thank you for opening your heart to us! Our Beloved brought you here for a reason and you will learn so much that will change your life forever!
I used to be a very contentious woman, and not very kind! When I came here the Lord led me to read this chapter: https://hopeatlast.com/c1/d11-chapter-9-gentle-and-quiet-spirit/.
He showed that humbleness and kindness win all the time!
“But let it be the hidden person of the heart, with the imperishable quality of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is precious in the sight of God. !—1 Peter 3:4
I also want you to spend time with The Lord reading this chapter: https://hopeatlast.com/c3/day-3-chapter-13-the-ministry-of-reconciliation/
because we have such a high calling to be peaceful and to trust that only Him can change everything!
My sweet fried, you are deeply loved by The Lord, He will touch your life for His Glory. Spend time with Him reading His word and doing the courses here, these things gave me the blessing and peace I wanted all my life!
Dear Bride, thank your for sharing your heart here. I remember there was a time I was angry, and that was right before the great fall. I got angry so easily to the point that I even started asking myself – what’s happening to me? Unfortunately I was not seeking the Lord at the moment and I fell miserably. Thinking back I was angry with everything around me – I was dissatisfied, bitter and sour and that was my way of releasing my negative emotions. I was dominated by my emotions and regretted a lot of things I said and done.
“A person without self-control is like a city with broken-down walls.” Proverbs 25:28
Another thing the Lord revealed to me is to love unconditionally. “A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another.” John 13:34
I had to re-learn what love truly is and applies the principles in my life. The Lord restore all things but it’s our part to learn to walk by the spirit. Get in the words daily and let them wash over you –
