My husband and I got in a big fight right now while he's away on his work visit. He drank and so it got blown up real quick. Please keep us in prayer

Lord I don't know the situation here in his heart but you do. Please convict him and if that result is anger help Marissa to be passive and forgiving so that she can continue to show love. Please be a comfort to her as she watches the struggle in her husbands heart between you and the enemy. We are confident in your power and trust you to do this work

Thank you for your prayers Lindsey and Leandro. I appreciate it. And I'm praying still but I haven't heard from him this morning so I'm not sure how he's feeling. He was so angry he would even say I love you last night. He just told me to f%$k off. So I'm praying this morning he's better.

Praying for you and Garrett, Marissa. Hopefully he will calm down soon. In the meanwhile, Sharon is right... You can be a force of calm and peace whenever he does contact you again! :-)

Thank you Adrienne, William, and Mary. I'm still trying to focus on God and pray without ceasing. I'm not sure if he'll talk to me before coming home. If he doesn't then that may not be a good sign.
The fight started over me just saying that the girl he kissed before tagged him in something. I didn't want to talk about it or bring it up but he could tell something was off. Then it escalated because the guy I use to mess around with before we got married got brought up by me stupidly. I was trying to use it as a way to get him to understand how I was feeling which was not a good idea. Because I didn't just kiss the guy, I slept with him while Garrett was in rehab. So it opened up all his unforgiveness and anger. So he yelled at me, called me a hoe and a b&!@h, and hung up. Didn't want to say I love you. It was such a disaster. I just sat and cried. So I've prayed and asked for prayer from others but it's hard on me. I would be lying if I said I wasn't anxious and afraid he's going to want to run. But I'm trying to trust in God and let go of fear. And I know I shouldn't have but in the midst of me praying and asking for prayer since 4 this morning, I was so overwhelmed I bought cigarettes and smoked.

Marissa I get that! I go there often too - to drink or smoke when I am stressed, but the enemy always creeps in when I allow those things. Try to focus without them, but if you really need a cigarette, take your bible with you and try reading it while you smoke. I know it sounds stupid, but it helped me a lot! You won't get over cigarettes or drinking or whatever your vice is immediately, but as God transforms us, the desire lessens.

Yes he's back, thanks for asking. Things are better now. He called and we talked the next night before coming back. He seemed like he wanted to just not talk about it but I knew we had to. So we did, he apologized, and I asked him to not speak to me like that again and he agreed. His attitude seems to havw calmed and we just celebrated our 1st year of marriage on Monday. I'm just getting back into the groove of how I use to press into God and looks like I'll have to keep stepping it up so there can be more peace than chaos.
