I am an emotional mess the past 2 days. I wish I was not like this. I truly want to be happy. I feel I am under attack because I have made a lot of progress and things have been so good. I am sooooo disappointed, My hubby came home from being gone a week and all he did was gripe at me....he had been drinking before getting home (had to wait at a place for son to pick him up after his job) It makes him hateful. I was so hurt. And this hurt was on top of other events of the day that were frustrating. And then there is the other hurt of missing the relationship with a man I am trying to forget to make my marriage work. I KNOW all that is a lie...but I was happy in that lie for a long time. I am praying and I am seeking sricptures. Im really tired of all the tears and neediness. I want to be strong in the LORD and have joy. I desire to keep moving forward....please pray for me.

Psssttt sis....when hubby starts to get in that mood of gripe...you get in the mood of praising the Lord...counteract the things said in your mind with good things of Jesus...it will help with all the emotions...as learning to control them...helps them not control you.

Praying for you.

luv ya

so sorry you are sad sis. Forgive your husband and then as mlg said ...put the praise on! Mean things are said to us but we don't have to allow them to take root. Give them the boot sis.
Things that you hear that are lies in your mind, kill them with the truth. And pretty soon the lies will begin to decrease and you will begin to believe the truth
You are in my prayers sis

A study I did, they had a saying:
You can't control what happens but you can control your reactions to it.
like tam said, opposite...always opposite

Thank you all for the encouragement. I reacted very badly....completely lost my temper this morning....and that is my fault. I am praying that I turn it around and let God do His work. Satan is really trying to make me miserable an I am refusing to let him. I am praising God in the midst of this storm.
