I am urgently asking for prayers for my husband and our marriage. He has strayed far from God, though he was once so close to Him. His suppressed childhood trauma is surfacing, and it’s deeply affecting both him and our marriage. The path he’s on has triggered this, but the root of it lies in his past pain. As an avoidant, he is pushing away the person who loves him most—me.
He isn’t acting like the man I know and love, my husband, my partner. My heart is broken. His family has abandoned me and is enabling this behavior instead of helping him heal. But I refuse to give up. Though my faith may waver at times, I will continue to trust in God’s plan. I know that I am being used as a vessel to bring him back to the Lord, but I pray it happens soon because my heart can’t take much more.
I miss him deeply. I want him to come home, where he belongs, so I can support him. This is his home. I am his home. He is safe with me. Please, Lord, bring him back. Open his eyes to what he is doing—to us, to me, and to himself. Show him what he is at risk of losing. Please hear my cries and answer my prayers. In Jesus name, Amen.
