I will continue to make sure God is in the picture. We still are very friendly to one another, but we will not waver. I think God wants me to trust him. I would like to write much more but, I am at work, thanks for the wonderful scripture I felt the holy spirit as I was reading it, you have been extra special to me, and I want you to know, how much I appreciate it. May God always guide you and keep you in his wonderful care. Me. Ok, so I feel that I, with God behind me, is in my corner, and we will continue to go through with our separation.

I suggest that both you and your husband seek the Lord with all of your heart studying the Word. If your husband as the head of the family submits to his head which is Christ- the Lord can restore all things. Maybe he needs to be healed spiritually of certain things before there can be peace in your daily lives. I would say that a Christian counselor who bases his counseling on God's Word will greatly help him overcome certain issues and also help you deal with all of this. I can tell you for sure that the Lord has an answer and He has the solution to your situation. Now all you have to do is seek Him for the answer. I know for a fact that Jesus will answer you because He cannot lie and He promises that He will give you wisdom to deal with all situations that come your way according to this verse in <strong>James 1:5-8: "If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all [men] liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord. A double minded man [is] unstable in all his ways."</strong> Don't ever believe Satan's lie that there is no solution and that everything is lost. Stand on God's promises and the Almighty will provide an answer for your life. Christ has already won and given you the victory on the cross. Now you only need to take hold of His victory and remain in it. Maturing in Christ can only happen when we choose to submit to the Lord and apply His Word in every single circumstance we go through. I would like to pray for you now: <blockquote>Lord we want to come before your throne pleading for Susan's situation. Please send your angels to protect her family against Satan's darts and attempts to destroy her and her family. Lord we declare your Word and stand on Your promises at this time believing that You are the Provider and You alone can solve all of this. We trust you and praise Your Holy name. You are the Creator of all of the Universe and we believe that you can transform and heal this family. We pray for Susan's parents, and children and step children. We lift them up at this moment - we ask you for wisdom- not man's wisdom Lord, but Your wisdom. We pray for Susan's husband. Lord, enlighten his mind and draw him close to you. Establish him to do Your will and to fulfill the purpose that you have for his life here on earth. We ask you all of this in Jesus' name, Amen.</blockquote> Hi Susan,

My partner has been very jealous over my two children. We both are in agreemnet that this is the best avenue for us to take, but we both still love each other. This is so crazy. This is a 2nd marriage for both of us. I have had a 13 yr. old step son and I have by my first husband who is deceased a 23 yr. old daughter and a 19 yr. old son. My daughter is facing court now due to I believe partly family life and a choice of her own. My son and husband got in a fist fight around a month ago, and the state of Va. arrested my husband, but he was released the same night on his signature, but was told to stay away from the children for 5 days. Floyd has been nothing but an absolute angel since then. He has a lawyer and I have mine. We want to spend time together and still love each other. I told my son I would not do this if he thought I would disgrace him. He said I wouldn't and that not everyone is always right like my parents who are very worried. I know I can't continue to stay in this relationship under one roof with my children or to hurt my parents any more. Please let me know what you think about this family life decision. Thank you so much. I am going through the process of a legal separation with my husband over a period of time where verbal and emotional abuse have played a part in the marriage.
