I am the husband to an amazing woman of God for 20 years!; though, I've not treated her kindly nor my family! I am currently truly seeking help that will be transformative in me. For my wife, disbelief has set in after 20 yrs. with me and I feel this may be the end of our marriage. The Holy Spirit has brought heavy conviction on me to change and be different! I've never felt the Holy Spirit convict, prompt, or challenge me to change like this ever before. I heard Him say to me, that I am going to take out your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh. I sense that the time is urgent and time to get extremely serious about my marriage relationship, family relationships, and begin to transform myself so that healing, reconciliation, and restoration can occur in these relationships, especially my marriage.

I'm a military Veteran with 33 years of service and have lead many but leading my family is a struggle for me. I am understanding that there is a big difference between the two. I've been trying to lead my family using my military training and that doesn't work. I recognize that I need to be in relationship. Please pray that I would remember and apply the relationship skills that I'm learning from the book, The DNA of Relationships by Dr. Gary Smalley, and that God would please do a miracle in me first, and then in my family, so that we don't end up in a divorce. Please pray with me, Lord help to change and become a better man, husband, and father. Lord, please help me to get targeted help with these issues so that I am no longer floundering in my marriage nor in my family relationships.

We have a daughter and two sons together. Please pray for them as well.

Thank you in advance for your continued prayers.
