A.A. Thought for the Day
I have hope. That magic thing that I had lost or misplaced. The future looks dark no more. I do not even look at it, except when necessary to make plans. I try to let the future take care of itself. The future will be made up of todays and todays, stretching out as short as now and as long as eternity. Hope is justified by many right nows, by the rightness of the present. Nothing can happen to me that God does not will for me. I can hope for the best, as long as I have what I have and it is good. Have I hope?
Meditation for the Day
Faith is the messenger that bears your prayers to God. Prayer can be like incense, rising ever higher and higher. The prayer of faith is the prayer of trust that feels the presence of God, which it rises to meet. It can be sure of some response from God. We can say a prayer of thanks to God every day for His grace, which has kept us on the right way and allowed us to start living the good life. So we should pray to God with faith and trust and gratitude.
Prayer for the Day
I pray that I may feel sure of some response to my prayers. I pray that I may be content with whatever form that response takes.
undefined I have a question ..I sure hope someone would beable to answer this for me. I beleive my husband has a drinking problem,though he doesnt think he does. he will say he is going one plce and will be gone for hours..when he comes home i guess he has gone to where he said but he has also went to the at least one of the bars up town too. He does this at least a few times a week if he doesnt do this then he buys beers and hinds them in his trunk of his car or will hide them out in his garage differnt places. I have gotten him to stop staying out all night at the bars just recenlty he use to say he would go up there for a hour or two but would go up and not come home untilthe bar closed. Now since i have served him with divorce papers he sneaks up there at times still but isnt going and staying until; bar closing like before. I dont beleive half the things he says to me ..he will promise he wont go to the bar but will go (stop in) he drinks when he goes golfing,fishing, almost all activies he thinks of as fun he will want to drink at. I am still going through with the divorce so far..i am so surprised he wont stop drinking for me,or at least just drink like every other week or something. How come he has to drink ...event if he goes a week or two with out drinking he s counting his days on how long it has been. How come he cant go a month with out event noticing he hasnt drank? We have two little boys who get let down by him alot of times (this breaks my heart) My husband lets me down all the time..i exspect it but the kids ..they will get their eyes filled with tears at times because he will not follow through with things he has promised to do with them. In stead he ratehr go do somthing with out the childrne i beleive he doesnt want them with him becasue he wants to drink and he knows they watch him and will tell me things. He tries to make them feel bad for telling me things like about him having beers hid in the garage he will yell at them if they tell me or show me. One time he had some hid in the garbage can eeewwwww. At times he tries to help around the house but he thinks if he does help around the house at all he thinks he is doing MY WORK> see i am the one who payes the bills ,does the laundry,dishes,suppers,grosheries-buy them, I help the kdis with school things,I take care of the dog,i take the garbage out every week,i clean the house,I do all the doctors and dentist thing. He goes to work and makes the money. I have tried to get a job to work on the days he is home just for a few hours two days a week. But he didnt like me gone,he wasnt ablew to golf,and do things he wanted if i wasnt there he had to take care of our childrne for those three hours . So i dont make money :-( But i did try to for a while..he was getting so mad while i was gone he broke alot of things here at home..it wasnt worth me working he was costing me more money then i was making being gone .and my children were sad and upset so i stay home now and just do things here. My one son has autistic tendencys so he is alittle more work then a typical child, my other child is very noral but gets his feelings hurt easy.
Do you guys think that my husabd is Adhd like the doctor thinks?or does thins sound like alcoholic? I thought he was maybe Bi-polar with his terrible mood swings he has ..alot of angre,and very moody. what do you think..i feel bad thinking it could be a disoder he cant help..or is it just him and he hasa control over himself and is being just mean???

I know what you are going through, however divorce is not the answer unless there is violence. Your husband has to decide that he has the problem. You can threaten him with divorce papers or anything at all. Ultimately he has to make the decision to get help. It's sad to say even in normal marriages the wife has sole responsiblty in taking care of the children and the housework. I'am a christian and the way i handle all my problems is through prayer. I know that we want our prayers answered now but God has things planned out in his time. Just continue to do the things you are doing, be a good mom take care of what needs to be taken care of, and as hard as this is be patient. If there is no love from your husband or if you do not love your husband, Seek counseling first. Maybe your just so blinded by anger that the love for him is buried deep. I will pray for you and your babies. Keep strong and Pray, Pray,Pray.+
