(SOUTH AFRICA) My question now comes in when it comes to datiing an unbeliever. I am currently single and one day I hope to get married. The dating pool for belivers is limited. What would you then advise?

(US) You have taken the words right out of my mouth… from half-hearted Christianity to raising kids alone… doing everything alone… I share your struggle… and your prayers.

May God surround us both with his grace and love. May we not give up. May they feel the knock. May they become the spiritual leaders of our households as the Lord intended… and may we choose to submit on a daily basis despite our struggles. Blessings.

(UNITED STATES) I have a husband that says he is a believer but seems to only believe when it requires no effort. The things that I loved about him he quit being long before I was saved. We struggle in almost every area of our marriage. It is so hard to be the kind of wife God wants me to be when I am battling at just liking him sometimes.

I believe that this is “til death do us part” I just can’t wait until I am blessed and have a marriage that doesn’t leave me praying for death so we can part. On the upside since Easter I have gotten him to agree on one day a week going to church. That was an awesome answer to my prayers.

So I have faith that God will move this marriage where it needs to be but in the mean time it is so very, very hard. Raising the kids virtually alone, matter of fact most everything alone except for the conjugal visit he enjoys once in awhile. I haven’t found any books or web sites that teach you how to deal with the mean time when he isn’t budging until God moves him.
