husband is remarried
If I knew more about his words, If I was more aware of building this intimacy , I would have known that Obeying the Law and the Grace of God, go together. I would have learnt, "my place", and not trying to be God in my life. I would have not left the world take over him in my heart and life. there is no reverse, God will create new ways for me to amend myself as he forgave my sins. But I wish more people learn it before suffering like I did and do still at time. But for people in my situation or worse, I want them to know, that IT IS NEVER TOO LATE. I DEFINITELY WOULD RECOMMEND IT TO ALL WOMEN, CHRISTIANS OR NOT. I HAVE LEARNED SO MUCH AND I KEPT THE BOOK, THE SUMMARY. I am not involved in any church, but the least 2 months when looking for answers I discover you, then I went to prayers' meetings in a Local church, I plan to visit times to times for big meetings or prayers and give my offerings. but not attending it.
They said a marriage is 2, but it takes 3, and God is the center. They said to deal with issues with words and hard Love, God says be quiet, gentle and win with your actions, not your words.... They said you have to fix it, but Let go and leave it to God, the victory is yours but the battles are his, just praise in bad and good and do not look at the circumstance, nor at your timing. He guides us in our ignorance. We all knew it, but the world took over! JESUS HAS BEEN, BUT HOW MANY TIMES DID I CHEAT ON HIM? Oh God, please give me the wisdom, the strength to follow your steps all along despite the tribulations and trials from now on. I do remember the unseen and seen blessings in my life, I still can feel your grace. I do remember your anger too in my life when I was stubborn, but I praise you for all I am. I am at times not worthy and this seed of Faith tend to fade but never left me for good, because You live in me. SO KEEP THE KEY TESTIMONIES FOR YOUR OWN WALK WHETHER YOU PURSUE RESTORATION OF YOUR MARRIAGE OR JUST FOCUS ON YOUR MARRIAGE WITH GOD.
I am divorced and my Husband remarried as fast as the snow melt down on the ground. The humiliation, the shame, the hatred faded, though the wounds stay as a learning lesson. Nothing changed in my marriage, but a lot changed in my heart and in me. Nothing is left from the existence of my EH in my life, and from what is left in my heart, I am less and less prompt for restoration, more so hoping him Good luck and keep going on with God. I do no desire Restoration really, if it was not to please God and because I trust he is able, I am happy just living my life with God's promises for my future. I see the storm coming as the more I try to let go of this Restoration, the more I start to face things that never happened during the year I was without news of my EH. I discovered the face of his new wife, and even bumped into his new wife in place I never expected to see her, when I pray for PEACE. I cried over to God as it was not what I asked, I wanted to be sheltered, but in this process, while he taught me humility, he cleansed me from the shame I had to. I surprised myself, I do not wish her bad, I laughed at my contentious and saw indeed my flaws. Thank you God. Is my marriage that important still? No God, you are what matter. Restoration or not, what you shaped in me is the valuable thing and I trust you. I see myself content and wishing just PEACE over Restoration, wishing more of God's blessing and grace for people around me over Restoration of my broken marriage, I want to stay in this blissful place, covered by God's wing during storms, and enjoy the rainbow right after praising him.
Sometimes it is not because of your sins, God just uses you as a vessel for his Glory. So lift up your face, stop being afflicted and humiliated, he took away your Lover, friends and Family, but he never hides himself from your face. Look for him, seek him and let him reveal you, the true YOU.

I have been recommending "How God Can and Will Restore Your Marriage" to women for years, even if there is no big crisis in their marriages. The teaching in it contains the blueprint of how to have a really blessed marriage, the kind that God intended it to be. This book has the scripture base that we have never been taught! Finding and reading it sooner would have changed my life, still I thank the Lord every day that He sent it when He did. What a difference it will make to my daughters and granddaughters to be taught this message.
By the Word of Their Testimony, was the book that I went to when I need to water and strengthen the seed of hope that started to grow after reading "How God Can and Will Restore Your Marriage". Just reading about Him working in others lives blessed me with patience, confidence that God was still working in our lives and hope.
Please keep in mind that that I found RMI in 2000-2001….but I still clearly remember the pain and hopelessness of that time. My third marriage was ending in divorce and I was beyond hopelessness. All I had ever wanted, for as long as I could remember, was to be a wife and mother. Each of my other husbands had also found OW and none of us had any idea about the Lords instructions on being married. None of us knew the Word or what it said about being a husband or a wife. We all were the classic cases of perishing for lack of knowledge! And the worst part of it we all were raised in churches---never taught any of this….so very sad! So when I read “Dear Beloved Sister in Christ, It is not by chance that you are holding this book in your hands; it is by Divine Providence. God has heard your cry for help, as He did mine, and He has come to rescue you. The pages that follow will guide you as He guided me when others said it was completely hopeless.” I knew that the Lord had taken pity on me sent me a personal letter in the form of a book! Although my marriage was not restored at that time, my life totally changed. The Lord taught me how to be His bride through what I had learned at RMI and through my e-partner, the praise reports, workbook, conference and all of the other resources that were available at the time. Currently all that is available is astounding! And the love of the other women to donate forward for others is an enormous blessing. Knowing that someone cared enough about me to pray for me and pay for the course helped me to complete it. There were many days that had I paid for it I would have quit…when it got hard or inconvenient I would have just stopped. Knowing that someone else had the faith with me kept me going! So…bless you, all of you who listen to the word of God: Let the word of Christ richly dwell within you, with all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another with psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with thankfulness in your hearts to God. (Colossians 3:16)
Sweet Lady, I want to bless you with the hope I received from someone else who prayed and paid for me to participate in this course. Your life will change, hope will blossom in your heart again and joy will be your daily fare. Open your heart to the Lord and He will never disappoint nor leave you. I will faithfully pray for you and your new life in the Lord.

I highly recommend reading this valuable resource. Personally, I saw many of the words God had spoken to my heart before I found this ministry, and that confirmation was such an encouragement to me!
On many hard days, these testimonies were my life line. I can't say thank you enough to those who shared your pain, but most importantly, your triumph for the glory of God!
My marriage was, and still is, legally intact, but we are living separately and my husband asked for a divorce almost a year ago.
Be still, and know that He is God. The one true God, creator of heaven an earth, has a plan for your life greater than what you can imagine. Look for Him through you pain, and you fill find joy and peace. May God bless and keep you on your journey, and may you have the strength to endure until your earnest prayer is made manifest. I pray God's best for you and your family. I don't know your name, but God does, and I will pray for your marriage as I pray for my own. Amen.
