I have forgiven my wife of any wrong doing. I have asked for her forgivness of me but she will not forgive me. Instead she pushes even further away. I don't know what else to do. What do you do when someone will not forgive you?

Hi tntchao,

Im sorry she isnt responding to you the way you want her to. Give her time. Keep praying for her. During this time let the Lord do work in you. Focus on your walk with Him and let Him do the healing He wants to do within you. Remember that she is His too. He knows how to reach her...let His will be done within her, while you let His will be done in you. Whatever it is she is carrying is between her and the Lord...so is how she handles her feelings about you. Keep her in your prayers...but be ready for the answer the Lord gives. I believe that God can heal marriages. But it happens in His time.

Have you read "The Love Dare"? If you do, dont tell her you are reading it. I wish I could tell ya that your marriage will be restored. I hope it is. But, His will be done. I pray He will soften her heart toward you...that He would give you the words to say, in His time...again, His perfect will be done.

Praying for you, tntchao. Let Him heal you through this time. Total surrender to Him and His will....

In Jesus,
luv momo *Halo*

That hurts doesn't it. It's like they keep you in bondage to the sins you have repented for. Just know.....you are forgiven.

Praise God. *Cross* Seriously. Praise Him. It helps heal the pain. Thank Him for forgiving you. Tell Him how wonderful He is.

Take care. GB
