The Heavenly Father says, “She’s, my daughter. I made her. Your wife is mine. She’s, my project. I’m in charge of her life. She has given her life to me. And I am at work in her life.”
I will be her judge, not you! I will call her by the names I have proclaimed, not negative labels you have spoken. She is my beloved, chosen and redeemed. I am doing my work in her. And she is being transformed.
Yes, she has a human heart. It is one that loves me. And it can be strong-willed and defiant. Remember, she is my project, not yours. Some days she battles. Don’t be confused. The battle is against herself and me. You may catch some flack. Please be careful. Do not get caught up in our conflict.
I do need your help in that she will need love, comfort and affirmation. But, never forget you have your own assignments.
First, inwardly be transformed by the Holy Spirit through a reformation of thoughts and actions.
Second, follow the example of Jesus. As the husband, you are to demonstrate love for your wife, with the same tender devotion that Christ demonstrated for his bride, the church.
Third, surrender your will to God. Be a living sacrifice. Let love for your wife, be a genuine expression of your love and worship of the Heavenly Father.
Prayer
Father, help me love. Help me love as you love. Help love grow in my heart, mind and soul. And can you throw in some patience, kindness, and long suffering? I need you and your love. Help me Holy Spirit and Jesus. Amen.

On Dec. 28th my wife told me she wants a divorce. This past weekend (1/25) while visiting with my boys, I found out some troubling information, and began to worry and fret, filled with anxiety.
I struggled with these feelings for most of the weekend. And Monday morning while I was driving to work and praying, being, pleading for an answer or some sort of sign…. My phone buzzed. And this was the post of the day. Posted in the midst of my prayer.
She is my wife. But as much as I love her, Jehovah Rafa, who gave her to me, loves her even more.
God, please bless my wife. I know she is hurting. I know she is in so much emotional and spiritual pain. Some of which I caused, some from past trauma. I cannot heal her. I can only pursue You and become the best version of myself that I can be.
You can and will heal her.
I pray only that I can be there to lovingly take her back into my open and waiting arms when You complete Your work on her, so I can love her, my bride, just as You love Your bride, the church.
I needed this today. My wife filed for divorce last week behind my back. It appears to have been in the works for a while, but this act was a shot across the bow.
There is a spark of rage igniting inside, but that will not lead to godliness. Even as she has detached from me, she is God’s daughter and I need to treat her as such as I rigorously pursue my children’s best interest as their father.
Thank you for your raw, hard, healthy, honesty.
To our God be all glory.
