Two Wrongs Don't Make a Right
Dear Jan,
I'm sorry to hear of your ongoing struggles. My heart aches for the havoc that this sin has wreaked in your home. I would encourage you to read the chapter of the Excellent Wife book entitled "God's Provision For Wives" as it outlines very well the Biblical provisions that God has given to us wives to protect us from sinning husbands.
Let me encourage you to contact www.nanc.org to see if there is a counselor in your area. I urge you to do this because I think that there is probably a great deal of validity to your concerns that you are not responding properly and that you may be overcome by the Evil One. I do not desire for you to have this experience, Jan. Who knows but that perhaps God is testing you.......remember Job? Don't curse God and die! Look to Him and Live, my dear sister. This is not to say that your marriage will survive or be restored (though it might be); but it is to say that you have to stand before God for how you respond to your present circumstances....you will want to be sure to follow His ways in this. I am praying for you to this end.
grace to you,
Jody
