Are you tired of doing your role as a wife without any replica from your husband? You have done everything possible to make your marriage work, but your husband is doing the contrary? Perhaps you have even involved a third party to help persuade him, yet he remains adamant. Such a situation can be discouraging, depressing, chilling, and disheartening. It is enough to make you give up, making you call it a day in the relationship.

I have an interesting news to tell you, the news is that you are not alone in this struggle; many women all over the world are experiencing it. As remaining in the relationship does not give you the happiness you are looking for, quitting it would not proffer the solution either. In fact, giving up may amount to double tragedy. A close associate of mind who separated with her husband once told me that it is worse to be outside marriage than bearing with its pains.

So, what is the way out? I am here to encourage you with a story of someone who faced a more devastating situation triumphantly.

There lived a man who went about doing good to everyone he came across with. He had some few friends who appreciated what he was doing and confided in him, but many rejected him and hated him with passion despite the good things he was doing for them. One day his enemies conspired together to eliminate him, but they could not find anything against him. So they came up with false allegations and succeeded in arresting and arraigning him before the court of law. All his friends deserted him and he was left alone to defend himself against a multitude of accusers. One of the friends who managed to the court denied him to his face. No one could stand with him and defied the false allegation against him, so his enemies got a judgement against him and he was killed.

Do you know what? This man came back to life after three days, what would you expect of him, revenge on his enemies and part ways with his friends, isn’t it? On the contrary, he did no evil to his enemies nor parted with his friends instead he blessed them. The very friend who denied him to his face he made him a leader among the other friends. This action of his ignited a strong love from his friends toward him that they were willing to die for his cause.

I am sure you know who this man is, his name is Jesus, and he is the Saviour of mankind. We have all read about him in the four gospels of the Bible. He is the only person who went on doing good to people amidst so much evil against him, without giving a second thought. He never felt tired nor discouraged by men’s attitude instead he continue multiplying his good works with a joyful heart Share on X.  He said,

“Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you and pray for those who mistreat you.
”  Lk 6:27b-28

Is it easy to do these things from a human perspective? It is not. It takes the mind of Christ to do the things of Christ. The scripture says, “

For it is God who works in you to will and to act according to his good purpose.”
Phil.2:13.

So beloved, hand over your struggles to Jesus, and he will give you the grace to forge ahead. Your pains were nailed with him on the cross so you need not bear them anymore. Arise, and grab this abounding grace, and continue your good works until you have ignited an unquenchable love in your husband. Many ( I inclusive) have testified the amazing transformation work of the Holy Spirit in their families and yours is no exception. Only trust and obey.

Remain blessed.
