Thank you! I look for those types of scriptures all of the time. They seem to give me strength through this waiting game.
"Be patient to persevere and wait for God to heal. Keep in mind that you are both imperfect people. Look to God as the source of all you want to see in your marriage and don't worry how it will happen...Leave it in His hands."
Quote: NGU, I have already tried that route and it did not work with J-dog. However I asked him about checking out AD's and I do not think he is going to do it. I also asked him if he quit going to MC and his responce was simply that he has stopped for now.
The statement 'for now'.....that is what I am talking about when I say that he keeps saying things or doing things that imply hope for us. I don't know if he is dumping you a line or if he isn't giving up on us but is just testing things. AAAGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!!

I really do not know either at this point. However, I would take it as a positvie. He did not tell me that he was done with MC. Just my 2 cents though.

So he didn't tell you that he was done with MC just that he had stopped going for now? Geesh! I hope it isn't his pride that is keeping him from coming to his senses and coming home. Unreal!

Me too. I have written down several scriptures on some index cards and keep them in my purse. I read them when I am feeling down, and they lift me up. Here are a few:
Do not be overcome with evil, but overcome evil with good (ROM 12:21)
Commit your way to the Lord, trust also in him and he will do it (PS 37:5)
My people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and seek. My face will turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, will forgive their sin and heal their land. (2 chron 7:14)
It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust in men (PS 118:8)
With God nothing is impossible (matt 19:26)
Do not be afraid of sudden fear nor the onslaught of the wicked when it comes; for the Lord will be your confidence and keep your foot from being caught (Prov 3:25-26)
There is a way which seems right to man, but its end is the way of death Prov 16:25
I hope these help you!!

I think God is the one that actually gives me strength when the W decides to come around. Normally just to drop off the kids but at least it is something. I have been able to keep an even keel when she is there but as soon as she leaves it is back to mind wandering form me.
Keep up the Faith NGU God does not give us anything we can not handle.

I will keep the faith and stay kind to him. We actually had a good time on Sunday evening when he came over. He sat and watched Q and I play some games and he was joking with us the whole time. He sat in the play room with A while she played with some toys and even helped us load up the kids to go out to church for little while. I keep working on him but without the R talk.

Thanks Kristy! I am going to jot those down. I have a few on my desk and I am starting a collection of ones to keep with me. My pastor actually gave me another prayer based out of the book of Hosea. There are alot of things (prayers, books and scriptures) to help us get through this!
