My husband of 20 years decided in October that he doesn't love me any more. He has found someone at work that makes him feel vital and loved by God in a way he says I never have. He has left his Christian group of men and has stated he hates his job. I think he is having a midlife crisis. We are currently trying to fix our marriage and living in the same house as roommates. It is hard to heal with the presence of another in the way.

Since then I have turned my life competely over to God and His healing. He has created a new heart in me and has healed much of the pain I have felt from my past. My husband says he sees the changes and appreciates them but still feels God is directing him towards this other Christian woman who "makes him want to be a better person." She is currently divorcing her husband. I am standing firm for my marriage. I have the support of my young adult children and parents but not the mother in law who is feeding my husband's crisis by treating him like a much younger person again (she bought him a guitar and takes him out for breakfast weekly alone).

I continue to love my husband unconditionally each day. I laid him and his "friend" at Jesus's feet. Websites like this give me the strength that I am doing the right thing. I do see glimpses of the man I love and am sure restoration can occur with God's help. Please pray for healing and restoration for my marriage and patience for me during my stand.
