help separated spouse with spending habit |
I ask the Lord to bind up my separated husband's habit of spending $1200+/more per month. There is an account w/my name on it and he is now using it. Although I have spoken to him about these concerns he continues to spend even though he is aware that he does not have a job yet (he was laid off- he could have moved to keep his job but did not and is now receiving both severance and unemployment). It seems that he would rather be out w/the single friends at bars, clubs, R4L events instead of w/his family. Help him realize Lord that he is not improving his ways but going down a destructive path. (He has a credit card that is over $24K, a second one over $5K and now this new one is already over $3K in less than 2 months time.) His 'friends' do not realize that even though he is out/buying wine/special drinks for parties he is getting more and more in debt. Open his eyes Lord, only you know the way to do this. I still love him, but have had to learn this is not my fault and I need to make sure that our daughter and I have a roof over our head. I've been dealing week to week and have come to realize that the Lord has provided and my situation is going to improve greatly as long as I believe.
Help us Lord and I ask for many prayers. Amen

Dear CarrieAnn,The Lord is helping you, I'm sure. Are you able to pay bills without your husbands income? Your husband has a God-given will of his own and until he deciedes he is being selfish, and repents, no one else can stop him. I know because my husband is in the same situation. He lied to me about love and isn't responsible and became very angry and violent. Now we are separated and I was feeling bad & happened on your website and saw your prayer. I pray that you get the answers God has for you in His Word and His guidance. |
