Beloved of All
Please pray over my marriage and our hearts. There has been a tremendous lack of communication and this causing a ton of hurt. We have been married for 7 years and for 5 years tried for the little baby boy who is not 16 months old. Working away from home is taking a priority to being home where he is needed most. There’s been changes to work schedules without even so much as a discussion. This job is driving a wedge deeper than I ever fathomed and causing so much distance, anger. When he does call home it’s never to talk with me but to talk to our 16 month old. There is no conversation about days or work or life in general. He’s gone more than he’s home and the lack of love I feel is causing me to think of separation and divorce. I feel like I did not sign up for this. I feel like he thinks the sacrifice is only on his part and sees nothing about the sacrifice I make daily. What was supposed to be a really good thing in our lives, this new job that he’s been out for four months has created more fights, more division, less conversation, and more stress than I ever dreamed a job could. We spend the weeks not communicating and I am drained. I’m grasping for something to hold onto but he’s giving me nothing. Please pray over his heart and conviction for the decisions made without discussing them. Pray that he remembers he made a commitment to me 7 years ago before God and our family and friends long before he made a commitment to his boss and this job. Thank you for your prayers.
