I bought the book online and have referred back to it so many times. What I appreciated was, that when I was in so much despair and hopelessness, the book gave me structured guidance back to the Bible and back into the arms of Jesus. I had hope again and wasn't falling around looking for answers in the wrong places. I ended up at the right place, with God being my Councelor, Protector and Lover.
I would definitely recommend the books. I bought two books and when I get paid again, I would like to buy more. It is absolute confirmation of God's Will. I also learn from other women's stories and how God is true to His Promises, as long as we follow His principles. A must read.
My husband said he does not love me anymore and that we should get divorced. He said we got married to soon and we started with children straight away and also went into ministry to early into our marriage. The last 4 years were difficult for both of us, my brother committed suicide, both my EH's parents passed away within 3 months, my dad passed away last year October 2020. I also had 2 miscarriages 10 years ago which I just swept under the carpet. Bu we both went on bravely to the outside world, but in our marriage we did not support each other. I became very, needy, contentious, argumentative, jealous and many more horrible things. This just added to my EH's burdens. In April over the Easter Weekend we had a huge fallout and hurtful things were said to each other. That is when my EH said he does not want to be married to me anymore. I begged and pleaded and persuaded him to not leave me. He said OK, but in June he said he wanted to get divorced, his love for me died. We told our children. My world just fell apart and I could not handle it all. I went on many marriage websites, until I google married restorations. That is when God guided me to RMI. I immediately started the first FREE course. I also bought God can and will Restore Your Marriage and Wise Women books. As soon as I started the course I had hope and faith. God showed me that I was a contentious and selfish women. But most importantly I found solcae and love in the arms of my Beloved Jesus. I lost a lot of weight and my countenance changed. God gave me a quiet and gentle spirit and peace that surpasses all understanding. I am not afraid to be alone anymore and the relief to let go is wonderful. We still live in he same house, although we live in seperate rooms. My husband cannot go ahead with divorce proceedings because of many logistical problems. Praise the Lord! We are in limbo at the moment, but I have Jesus and He is all I need. I've learnt to be content and blessed that I am still in my house. Thank You Lord.
Dear Bride, long before my marriage fell apart I longed for peace. I knew I was not in a good place, marriage and in general. It took this crisis in my life to find my First Love again. You will find the hope again. But most importantly the restoration will start with you, before your marriage is Restored. Jesus is waiting for You. To love you and to give you peace. Take it. Don't give up. It is worth it.

I already bought the book for two other people. I would highly recommend this book it is unlike any marriage book that you have read. It has the truth in it. And it works.
Yes I would definitely read the testimonies and recommend the book they are very encouraging. And let us know that if it’s possible for them it’s possible for us.
My marriage situation was in shambles for 17 years almost. My husband never committed adultery on me but he has done pornography. And he has left me emotionally. The book has taught me to let him go emotionally and to cling to my heavenly husband. That he is all I want all I need and all I live for. The Lord is working on my husband and he has even admitted that for 17 years I was the spiritual rock. Even though I was contentious among many other things the Lord renewed his memory.
I just pray that the Lord will drive to himself and that you will grow and become the woman he has called you to be.

I would definitely recommend the RYM book as a good resource and guide in navigating through your marital crises. This book always brings us back to the Bible and its biblical principles and reminding us that only God has the answers to our issues, not ourselves and not even our partners.
The testimonies have been powerful in reminding me that with God, all things are possible. I have been very inspired each time i read about how the Lord became the First Loves of the ladies who submitted their testimonies and how God swiftly restored their marriages and turned their earthly husbands' hearts back to them. These testimonies shows me that God wants and can restore our marriages if we focus our lives on Him alone. Thank you so much for sharing these wonderful testimonies and to God be the glory!
Before i found RMI, i kept ruminating about why the marriage had broken down and i was desperate to problem solve and trying to salvage the marriage. However, after reading the RYM book, going through C1: Renew and through journalling, i got better insights into my role in the breakdown and how an abandonment is needed for the Lord to work on my life and draw me back into His loving arms. I also realized that my earthly husband was my idol that i placed as priority that has led to the abandonment that is needed. The resources shared have drawn me into closer intimacy with our Heavenly Husband and helps me find greater purposes for my life. Thank you so much for the resources that is much needed for those in similar situations.
May the resources be helpful in your journey towards restoration and more importantly, returning back to your First Love for He never leaves nor forsakes you. Taste and see that the Lord is GOOD.

my marriage is restored
I didn't get the book still. Is it given free to all who submit the marriage Encouragement? Is it the same as the courses? If so, I would recommend it.
Again, I didn't get these books still. From the testimonies I have read in the free courses, I would recommend it as it gives hope for those who have lost hope and also helps us to know that we are not alone in our struggles but that many other women all over the world are also going through much suffering.
My marriage was already restored when I found the site. The reason I started looking out for help is that although my EH had returned, and a lot had changed, I found myself falling again and starting to have the same arguments. I was also still hurt and didn't know how to be healed. I had already sought help from counselors, a friend and a priest but it didn't do much good. I realized that I needed help but no one could really help me in my situation because they had not been where I was and could not really understand. I prayed and asked God to lead me to the right person - that's when I found your website. I learnt a lot from the courses and also have drawn nearer to the Lord.
Remain confident of this: You will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord. Nothing is impossible with God. He will never leave you nor forsake you. Trust in God alone.
