Talking about Job's wife.......I'm not sure she was a Believer, either. We don't know b/c the scriputure does not really say. However, she certainly was part of the testing that hindered Job! I noticed after everything was over and God blessed Job abundantly with more riches, more children, and I wondered maybe a new wife??? Never mentioned the one that wanted him to cruse God and die. Anyway, I do believe that if you stick with trying to focus on what God wants "you" to do instead of over-thinking about your W and what she is going to do next or what she may be thinking,etc., that you will be okay....just like Job, and God will take care of everything else. Whatever happened to the "wife" is not clear, but apparently, Job was quite happy. I do understand your burden for her to become a Believer and I certainly am not making light of that fact. She will watch you and how you will conduct yourself in all of this simply b/c you do go by the name "Christian" and probably would use anything she could against you on that one account. So, that is your "Job" test. All of this together is your Job test. In the end, I think she will look back at the stitch and respect you for the stand you have taken. I got the idea at times that Job kind of tuned Mrs. Job out and just forcused on him and God, but she was not the main character of that passage of scripture, so we don't know what may have happened behind closed doors. I think the entire concept was that Job knew he had to keep his focus on what the whole thing was about. He did not take his friends advice and he didn't listen to his wife, he just worked on his R with God. Good lesson for all of us.

Craig, I am kind of like Jack said about moving on to newcomers, but it sure doesn't mean I don't still care about you and what happens. I just know you have the connection to as much power as you need to make it through and there are a lot of people here that are so fragile. You are going to be fine, but I hope the stitch will end with both of you still together. I will check back from time to time and you can find me whenever you need me, okay?

Take care, friend.

It is not about what you feel should work in your M. It is about doing the work that gets the right results. Do what works!
