My husband is not a believer

I am also in an unequally yoked marriage and some can handle it, but I can not. There is no unity and he does things that are wrong and he knows it's wrong, but he has this, "I am owed something" mentality, and if G♥d doesn't get him, man will.. I will pray for you and your husband, that is all we can do.

I share your sorrow. My husband, also, is a non-believer. He has been sick a lot lately. When he feels especially bad, he goes to bed and wishes to not wake up. This makes me very sad and even depressed.

Here's 2 cents worth from a pagan. I'm pagan and so is my husband. However we are not the same pagan. It's a bit like being a fundamentalist and a catholic. Same basic principle but looks nothing alike. Does your husband love you? Does he want to remain your husband? Is willing and trying to work through the issues that the two of you are having? For you, is this faith to God a deal breaker? Why do you feel he MUST believe as you do in order for it to work? Does not believing in the same god that you do make him a lesser man? Did his morals and judgement suddenly disappear or change because you found out he doesn't believe as you do? Faith is an extremely personal thing, not just in families, but within ourselves. Stop focusing on the faith and look at who he is as a man. Is he a good caring hard working man who wants the absolute best for his family? Does it really matter in the long run if he did that all in the name of your god?

Well dear it is really very depressing to have a husband who is not a believer. I used to be in the same boat but thank God my husband know holds the same faith as mine. I'd say it was really a very tough situation. But I did not lose hope. I held on to the promise of God in Acts 16:31. I did not stop praying for my husband and I also displayed good examples to him. It is the testimony of my life that led him to Christ. Now we are now both serving the Lord and I praise God for this.

Don't lose hope whengcat. Just keep on praying and showing your husband that God does help. We just have to help ourselves, meaning, do something to alleviate our situation. Not only should you pray for your present situation, but pray for HIM to enlighten your husband's mind. I guess, my husband owes me for his being so spitual life. Everytime he kisses me to go to sleep ahead, i would always ask him, Have you prayed, and he will. On Saturday evenings i would remind him that i will wake him up at this hour the next day , so we could prepare ourselves in going to church . When daughter is at home for vacations i do that too. That way, i get to have the family go to church and pray everyday also.

Here is a viewpoint that God may have. If people love each other and live together with all the trials and troubles that life can dish out yet still can make love the most important thing in their life then when a persons time is over, God will be understanding and although a person that has never tried to get know God is distant, the love they shared will not be.

Personally it is so easy when things get at their worst to doubt God like your husband is doing. People often question God when faced with trials or Health and Financial problems and job loss, etc. and many even turn away from God then, when in reality this is when God is reaching out more and seeing if you will trust him and Pray more believing for something good in the end. I have been there many times where you are at, and it is not always easy. But when you learn to stand strong and do what you need to do, and also be not afraid to ask for help when you need too, in the end everything will be OK. Will be praying that things there do improve for you soon.

That is sad whengcat, before hubby is not into God as well,he claims he has faith yet does not do anything about it...but after all we have been through i have noticed the changes. We started praying together, discussing faith together..God became part of our life, hubby may not be a church goer, yet we go and pray..he just does not attendt mass..yet we pray. I do not know when it started but it just happened. We have big problems lately but we both got through it.. i am praying your hubby will also see it.

Hi weng, maybe he have to face the bad condition before he can believe HIM sometimes people get closer to their creator after facing a heavy times in life show to him that what you had reached today is all because God

For me yes it is happened because you choose that kind of life that you are not the same religion you suffer more but if you prayed it to Jehovah God maybe it may change.

Hi!Nothing is impossible with God.In God's time can transform a person's hard heart into a heart of flesh.Just continue to share God's word to your husband,set an example for him as a christian and keep on praying. I know how difficult it is to have different beliefs with your love ones.Just be patient and trust God.

Just hang on! If it is the will of the Lord. then he will make something happen that will change the life of your husband. Dont lose hope. Pray!! always Pray! don't give up

Yes you are right. A relationship without God really won't work because we have to put our trust in Him. We have to have faith in Him. Even when we encounter trials and difficulties, we must not decrease our faith in Him but instead, increase it.

Just give him some space. You cannot pressure someone to discuss a very sensitive subject in one sitting. Give him time.

You might not realize this but believing has never ever been important to God. It is important only to religion. There is a way you can bring God to your husband. Instead of pressuring him to believe, be there with your strength, your support, and your Unconditional Love. You will show your husband more about God than in any other thing you could do. Actions speak louder than mere words.
