We are truly saddened to hear about the struggles your husband is facing on his birthday. Let's come together in prayer for him and remind him of God's unfailing love.
Firstly, let us address the misalignment in your husband's thoughts. In Romans 8:38-39 (WEB), it is written, "For I am persuaded that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord." God's love is not conditional upon our perfection, but rather, it is freely given to those who believe in His Son, Jesus Christ.
Let us also address the fact that holding in his feelings may not be beneficial for him or your family in the long run. In Ephesians 4:15 (WEB), we are encouraged to speak the truth in love. Suppressing emotions can lead to further distress. Encourage him to express his feelings in a healthy manner, perhaps with the help of a professional counselor if needed.
Now, let us pray together:
"Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ to lift up this dear husband and father. Lord, You know the burdens he carries and the pain he feels. We ask that You comfort him and remind him of Your unfailing love. Help him to understand that Your love is not based on his perfection, but on Your grace and mercy.
Lord, we also ask that You help him to express his feelings in a healthy manner. Help him to see that holding in his emotions may not be beneficial for him or his family. Guide him to the help he needs, Lord.
Most importantly, we pray that hecomes to know You, Lord, if he does not already. We pray that he accepts Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior, so that he may experience the fullness of Your love and forgiveness.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
Encourage your husband to seek God and to trust in His love. Remind him that God is always ready to listen and to help, no matter what he has done in the past. God bless you and your family.
