Merrick,
Fighting for your marriage is a godly thing to do.However it will not be easy. But I'm sure you know that.
Your wife need a gentle hand so to speak.

When Jesus entered the garden of Gethsemane He knew what he was about to do.He didn't want to do it.And He knew that if God could change it he would. But if he couldn't he would do it any way.So if He can do that you can give your wife the love patience she needs. This is such a small thing in comparrison.I know it is the biggest thing you have ever done. And hopefully it will stay the biggest thing you will ever do.I know I had a point there somewhere.

You know what needs to be done.You may not want to do it.So just pray what Jesus did.
If this cup can be removed from me please do but if not I will do as you will.

Love requires you to give and not receive.It never says in the bible to love so you can be loved back.There are examples through out the bible of giving love without recieveing.And not to many where you are loved back.

I always say love is dirty work. I don't mean unclean as in unholy.I mean dirty as in blood sweat and tears.

Your doing your best and that is all that is required.
Later Friend.
