In the appendix is a section about leading the heart. Take some time to look on it and pray about it.

It certainly can be. Think about your intent by doing it. Are you hoping that it changes her or that she will realize wrongs? Then your intent is misplaced. You are still controlling the situation doing what you think will work. That is not trusting Christ.

Through this journey you are to realize that Christ is molding y. Humbling you. You are to complete your husband through. Your unconditional love. Take this journey With Christ, and leave your husband to Him.

Read the appendix, especially the leading the heart section. And those feelings you have those concerns, leave those to Christ through prayer.

Because you are still having expectations and trusting in this world. Trust in Christ and know that He will never let you down.

As you go on this journey Christ will fill those voids if you seek Him out. Your wife is following her heart right now and being deceived by it. Read in the appendix about leading the heart. You will learn many things about you and your past and your wife's present.

There is a reason Christ chose this journey for you. To be a testimony to your wife. He is preparing you for many things, so seek His will not your own.

Well... Decisions decisions... My first recommendation is to watch fireproof. Do it all by yourself, no interruptions.

Second, this is not letting the other win. As you will soon see.

But remember, this dare is a journey and it is one between you and Christ not you and your wife, my second piece of advice is to read the appendix, especially the section on leading the heart.

During this time in the journey. Focus on what your relationship is with Christ. Look for strength through Him.

Love Christ first, and you will find how to love others better.

While Christ molds you in this journey, He will work on your husband and through your testimony many things can be done. When you pray for your husband. Leave your own selfishness out of it for now. Just pray for Gods will in his life, and your ability to accept that, and be the testimony for his salvation as Christ needs you to be.

I disagree. As you growth in Christ comes to light he sees it all the time. He just does not know what to do with it. He will let his pride take over.

Thats right. And your husbands convictions are more bothersome believe it or not. He will see you as a happy person in a time when he wants you to be miserable.

Remember Christ is going to mold you more each day in His image through these humble moments.

cmango,

This dare is a journey. One that God will mold you in many ways and humble you. Through Christ you will see what love really is not the worlds impression that you have had for so many years. When you have a moment read in the appendix about leading the heart.

Thanks Sean. I need to TRUST Christ more. I am getting in the way. I am letting my feelings get in the way. I am attempting but I think I can do a better job at trying and really relying on Christ to help me with each dare. Lead my heart......reminding myself of that all throughout the day. Do not follow my heart or feelings. Lead my heart!

I am right there with you, although my wife isn't as angry as she is apathetic. She has gone so gaga over her new boyfriend, that she is content to let me "serve her" daily by pouring my love into her with actions that quite frankly go on a iced over heart. I literally take over EVERYTHING allowing her complete freedom to act like a single girl again, and boy does she ever! She and her boyfriend have already made plans to "hit the town" all weekend! Leaving me home with my 2 girls babysitting again. Does there come a point where we just say "she is taking advantage of me" and run to get the nearest lawyer? Yes. If we let God go, and give into our flesh, that will happen. I for one REFUSE! I haven't finished anything in this marriage, and I encourage you to take that apathetid attitude toward's God that your wife has (mine has the same....she won't seek counseling, pray, talk to a pastor or anything) so quite frankly we are the only "Jesus" these ladies will see. They are EXPECTING us to fail, since we have done it in their eyes the entire marriage!

NOW is the time to put our foot on the solid rock, Jesus, and ride out the storm, and if he leads us in a new direction after this journey, he will be faithful to us to endure.

I pray strength to you right now, and start every day with God. It has really helped me from hitting depressioin or extreme anger.
