I always have time to pray for people Punk! Do not give up on her. Never give up on her. I don't mean that she will return to the family or to you but that she will go to Him.

You offering to help her could've been you heeding His direction. If we are to be kind to an enemy then what about loved ones. No matter what happens Punk, she will always be family. Forever.

Yesterday during church, the pastor recalled when, at the last supper, Jesus demonstrated being a servant to others. The disciples began to discuss who was the greatest among them. Jesus got up quietly, took off his outer garment and wrapped a towel around His waist. He took a pitcher of water and poured it into a bowl. He then proceeded to wash the disciples feet and drying their feet with the towel.

Jesus even washed and dried the feet of Judas Iscariot who had already betrayed Him. Jesus was aware at that time that Judas had done such a thing but He served Judas anyway. Jesus did not worry about what others would say. That He was a fool for being nice (being a servant) to someone who had sold him out and betrayed Him.

Punk, it doesn't matter what anyone else will ever think about being a servant to your wife. They may call you a doormat or a fool or worse but there is someone greater than anyone else that calls you to be this kind of man. As long as you are doing it for Him and not for yourself (and not even for her), you should never worry about others perceptions. I am not saying you are but I know my challenges how others view me.

You are a good man. A good husband. A good father. And a good friend.
