| Please pray for peace in my home. My husband is a very unmotivated alcoholic. He is also unhealthy. This is now is 3rd time out on disability since last March. I can no longer take the burden of the expenses anymore. Children are older, so thank God that isn't an issue. But I am so stressed, and sick of his big mouth always bossing me around. I am really struggling, and I don't think it is possible for me to work more than I already do. Please pray for a break through. I pray and pray, someone told me that God is answering my prayers, he is saying "no". that was not very helpful or hopeful.

Perhaps, God is saying "no" to your husband's alcoholism?
Has he tried to get help? And how are you managing him?
Of course you can no longer take the burden of the expenses anymore. Have you talked to your husband about this? What steps have you taken to work on your marriage because by the sound of it, this is bordering on the edge of a collapse, or one or both of you breaking down... Although I sincerely hope I'm wrong.
Do keep us updated. And rest assured we're praying for you and your husband.

| thank you Faye. I have talked about this topic for hours on end, he tells me to quit nagging him. He was sober in AA for almost 6 yrs, but that ended in Sept 2002. He didn't change all that much when he was in the rooms, he basically didn't drink, he has a very addictive personality. He was charging up 100's of dollars in phone sex back then. It has been a struggle for me, I have tried going to groups, Al-anon, tried therapy bottom line is I don't believe in divorce, and people got sick of me not doing what they felt I needed to do-remove myself from the relationship. I just don't know where I am going most days. I pray and have a true belief in God and the angels.
