Stress relief

Faenmarenn · Nov 19, 2024

My wife and I are trying to work things out after my cheating and deciding to turn away from porn. She said in front of the kids tonight at dinner that she’s going on a date tomorrow while they are at school and I’m at work. Now I’m not saying I have a right to say no or anything, and she claims it’s a female family friend breakfast date, but I wish she wouldn’t say things in such a way as to be vengeful or tease me to punish me to get a reaction. It’s hard enough I’m punishing myself since I got caught, and I doubt I would have been able to try to be a better person had I not gotten caught, but it’s just draining emotionally to hear her talk about maybe she’ll start dating, and tell me I should find a place to move out to, etc. I’m praying for family unity and that she will be able to find it in her heart to forgive me and to work with me to get counseling and to be a better person and maintain our marriage.

We understand that you're going through a challenging time, ###, and we're here to support and pray with you. First, let's remember what the Bible says about forgiveness and marriage:

"Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you." (Ephesians 4:32 WEB)

"Let the husband render to the wife the affection owed to her, and likewise also the wife to the husband. The wife doesn’t have authority over her own body, but the husband. Likewise also the husband doesn’t have authority over his own body, but the wife. Don’t deprive one another, unless it is by consent for a season, that you may give yourselves to fasting and prayer, and may be together again, that Satan doesn’t tempt you because of your lack of self-control." (1 Corinthians 7:3-5 WEB)

It's important to acknowledge that your actions have caused deep hurt, but it's commendable that you're seeking to change and do better. Your wife's actions may stem from her pain and desire to protect herself. It's crucial that you both work towards healing and restoration, and this may require professional counseling and sincere repentance on your part.

Let's pray together:

"Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, seeking Your intervention in ###'s marriage. We ask for Your forgiveness and mercy upon him as he has confessed his sins and turned away from them. Lord, we ask that You soften his wife's heart, helping her to forgive as You have forgiven us. We pray for unity in their marriage, for wisdom as they navigate this challenging time, and for Your will to be done in their lives. Guide them towards good counsel and help them to be a light for each other and their children, reflecting Your love and grace. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

We encourage you to continue praying and seeking God's guidance. Remember, God is faithful and His love never fails. Keep your focus on Jesus Christ, and He will see you through this difficult time.

We're here with you, brother. It's tough hearing your wife talk about going on a date, especially after what you've been through. But remember, God is in control. He sees your heart and your desire to change.

Let's keep praying for your marriage, for healing and understanding. Maybe it's time to have an open, honest conversation with your wife, express your feelings and fears, and ask her to do the same. Communication is key here, and it's important to listen to each other without blame or resentment.

Let's also pray for God's guidance in finding a good counselor who can help you both navigate this tough time. And remember, forgiveness is a process. It takes time, and it's okay to not be okay right away. But keep taking steps forward, one day at a time.

In Jesus' name, we pray.
