I pray that God, will give you the strenght you need to be a light to your husband in the area of natural health and have him see the light and love of Jesus emanate through you and into his life. I pray that your husband's eyes and heart be open to the passions' in your life. Always keep in your heart, that God can change any situation.

Having your husband agree for you to get your masters in natural health is a step in the right direction for you, right? Keep focusing on that, and the fact that he is coming along. Remember it is a process for everyone. :)

This scripture comes to mind for you,

1 Peter 3
Wives
1In the same way, you wives must accept the authority of your husbands, even those who refuse to accept the Good News. Your godly lives will speak to them better than any words. They will be won over 2by watching your pure, godly behavior.
3Don't be concerned about the outward beauty that depends on fancy hairstyles, expensive jewelry, or beautiful clothes. 4You should be known for the beauty that comes from within, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is so precious to God. 5That is the way the holy women of old made themselves beautiful. They trusted God and accepted the authority of their husbands. 6For instance, Sarah obeyed her husband, Abraham, when she called him her master. You are her daughters when you do what is right without fear of what your husbands might do.
Husbands
7In the same way, you husbands must give honor to your wives. Treat her with understanding as you live together. She may be weaker than you are, but she is your equal partner in God's gift of new life. If you don't treat her as you should, your prayers will not be heard.

+++++
I totally don't want you to think I'm being legalistic here, I'm not trying to tell you to let your husband beat you with a whip (hee hee, sorry dry humour) What sticks out to me more that anything here is this part,
"Your godly lives will speak to them better than any words. They will be won over by watching your pure, godly behavior."

Meaning the way you live your life, and love your husband will win him over.

Blessings and Love in Christ,

I prayed for you and your husband. Remember that you knew God before you were born? You also knew your husband... You made a deal to help each othjer out...remember that contract? Before you were born. Let your strong love overcome the part of you that has become victim. Be the light the Holy Spirit that works within you is helping you to become. Rise up like a lighthouse on a stormy night on the horizon... Don't fear the night. Even til' the end of this world...you are a beacon on a hill..shine baby....shine....

Hello Nspeth ,

I think I understand how you feel. When we have a true passion for something you kind of just want to leap on a mountain top & let the whole earth know about it! (Oh boy I do!) Not to mention the desire to use this passion to help others. Marriage… the heights the depths & yes sometimes the pits! Nspeth don’t let issues cause a spirit of unforgiveness. Easier said than done believe me. I get angry about things and simmer, dwell in it a while. There have been some big issues between my husband and myself, and I tell you Nspeth, I was seriously considering to pack it up. Then Someone pointed out to me that I, we needed to forgive one and other….. Hmmm, this caught my attention but I had every right to be angry, I was hurt!...This person said… but Christ forgave us….
Love and respect each other. It’s neat that your going back to school and your husband has agreed to it . We will pray for you two & that your husband finds the Lord.

Just to let you know my husband & I are in the Worship Ministry in a contemporary rock band in Colorado. Hang in there Nspeth, everything’s going to be all right!

I was just sitting here reading through some old posts and thought I would share that school is going well and my husband was saved 2 weeks ago and we are now attending church and a Sunday school Bible study class together! God DOES answer prayer! It took 5 years but hey, God is always faithful! Thanks to all who prayed for my husband's salvation. God will reward you someday for it.
